    Dambakolapatuna Rest is managed by SL Navy. Rooms are spacious having 3 double beds per room with attached bath room, AC and TV. Rooms are comfortable and clean. Staff is also very supportive. You can order food from their restaurant. You won't find any other place near by to have food . You can enjoy a sea bath as sea is walking distance from the rest. Life guards there will ensure your safety while you enjoy the sea. Dambakolapatuna temple is also situated walking distance from the rest I recommend this place to anyone who is looking for a comfortable,clean and relaxing stay around Jaffna

    Good value for money. Food options are limited because they just started to serve different types of food. Portions and tastes are good. Very happy with the meal. Room has 3 double beds. Very large family rooms There are less hotels nearby. But considering the room rates this hotel exceeded my expectations.

    Real value for money. Super calm and historical location. Maintain by the Navy and can book over the phone. Air conditioned large rooms which can accommodate 6 people. Staff is great and especially Saman provided exceptional service at the restaurant. The location is super and safe to swim in the sea. A lifeguard is available. Super Sandy beach with corals. We couldn't swim since it was a bit destroyed after a storm. Road from Point Pedro is under construction so it is a bumpy ride. The road towards Jaffna is ok. Food is great and spicy (if you don't like spicy you need to ask them to prepare food less spicy). Wash rooms need some fixing and cleaning. (Photos are of the nearby Dambakolapatuna temple and beach.)

    Had an amazing experience Rooms were spacious and clean The food was delicious, and the service was unmatchable Little attention needs to be paid about water in wash rooms since the same is somewhat salty,

    Meh... It's NOT a place you want to spend time at. It's just a lodging place for pilgrims. Run by the navy, you have to stay under their rules.. No liquor allowed (it's close to a temple), no meat items (they serve fish though, don't know why), no food inside rooms,... Just to name a few "rules". Friendly staff at the reception, Spacious rooms (a bit unkept), pretty cheap, but that stops there. Not recommended! Sorry...

  • 5/5 Tissa De S. 5 years ago on Google
    We were here for 3 nights, and all the facilities allocated from the hotel was extraordinary. And the staff was very friendly and the service was good. The scenery from the room balcony is very pleasant when it comes to the sun rise and sun set. When talking about the food there is no much of a option to pick. But still the food is at itz best. The vegetable cream soup is one of the best dishes. Highly recommended place and can take a fine sea bath at the rest.

    Tranquil, sunny sea bath with great hospitality. The staff was very caring & Sri Lankan-style food was delicious. Due to the nature of the area water was a bit salty & muddy. Providing filtered drinking water, if you are really concerned better to have your own.

  • 5/5 Nilupul A. 1 year ago on Google
    This place is next to Dambakolapatuna Temple. A good place for a stay around the area maintained by SL Navy and their services also good. The beach is very nearby and there is dedicated place for bathing in the sea and you are not allowed to bath without the attention of thier lifeguard, because it is not safe enough to swim or bath there alone. Since it is near to the temple, there are some limitations when it comes to the entertainments. Prices are very reasonable. Drinking water is not so good. So better to bring enough water bottles.

  • 5/5 Sanuki H. 4 years ago on Google
    This is a great place to stay in Jaffna. One of the best. Well spacious and clean rooms with comfortable beds. Beautiful surroundings with a great view of the beach. Very peaceful and calm surroundings. Situated right next to the Dambakolapatuna sanghamitta temple and very peaceful area. Run by the Sri Lankan Navy. And they do a superb job. Very friendly and supportive staff. The staff is very honest and praiseworthy. Even the prices are very affordable and the rooms are worth the price.I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who is visiting Jaffna. No words to praise this place.

    One of the best places I stayed. Friendly and helpful staff. Nice, clean and spacey rooms, beautiful surrounding and absolutely one of the most admirable places to go. Navy guys do that job really well. Keep it up guys you are doing a brilliant job.

    Dambakolapatuna Rest is one of the best accommodations in Jaffna peninsula. It is managed by Sri Lanka Navy. The premises is clean and the rooms are comfortable as well, along with attached bathrooms. Staff was very friendly and the food was tasty. It is situated close to the beach, hence you can have a safe sea bath in the Dambakolapatuna beach.

    You have the beach behind the hotel and it's quite far from the main city. The road to get to the hotel was small but it was a carpet road. And we stayed in a family room which was really spacious. The bathroom was small and the heater didn't work also the water felt like filtered sea water. The food was bad. We ordered a spicy prawns and fish which tasted bad and it was clearly not fresh produce. The fried rice came with dual curry, chilly paste and it was also not good. They do not offer room service. And they first told us they serve only vegetarian as there is a temple next door then later they said they cook only seafood. πŸ˜– no alcohol allowed.
