Me and my husband didn't stay at the Jetwing Blue Oceanic instead we stayed at the Jetwing BEach, which was a fantastic hotel and highly recommend it. HOwever, during our very short 4 day trip to Negombo we decided to eat at the Blue Oceanic hotel beach restaurant just by the pool and ordered what we thought would be a... more

Like lots of hotels in Sri Lanka, the rooms look very old and not well maintained. Otherwise, this hotel is all right if you need to go to the airport or if your flight arrives during the night; The hotel is situated in 15 minutes driving from the airport. Restaurants: average buffet Drinks: better to find some local bars in... more

After 12 days touring the country and seeing so many amazing things, it was nice to just kick back and relax on a comfy bed with 50 TV channels!! Decent sized balcony, with a view of the sea. Perfect to while away the afternoon reading a book. I was half board and the breakfast was excellent, buffet with fruit, breads... more

This is a super hotel, the staff really make your holiday a real pleasure. It was my second stay in the hotel, must say it was hard to say goodbye to a few of them. Clean, food plenty, tasty and very friendly people, good entertainment. For my birthday, they arranged a cake and I received a few presents from a... more

A nice touch was every night a roomboy came to turn the bedsheet corner over, place a flower on each pillow and sprayed the room for mossies We... more

There was only one issue with an electrical port with a TV that was iffy but help came and it worked fine, so thats nothing really. There are nice balcony areas where fresh ocean breezes can fill the room. Though as... more

This hotel is located close to the airport and on a nice stretch of sand at Negombo. It's a Jetwing hotel, so I had hopes it would be nice, having just come from their outstanding Hunas Falls Resort near Kandy (see my Hunas review for more details). Maybe we just hit a bad day. Reception was unfriendly and curt. The... more

Sri Lanka is on hard times. Tourists have fled, civil war and all that. Blue Oceanic [BOBH] ought to be jumping, good beach, good location, $20 taxi ride from Airport. It was sadly so quiet. Nonetheless BOBH provided a useful jumping off point for other Sri Lanka places. Check in @ 1.00 am was good, no messing about. The room... more

Rooms are basic but clean and large with fantastic sea views and a large balcony. Staff were very friendly and helpful, made the holiday.

Only complaints are... more
