The Fortress Resort and Spa

We stayed at The Fortress Resort and Spa for a girls’ getaway and had an amazing experience. Our spacious room comfortably accommodated the three of us, and the breathtaking ocean view made for countless hours of relaxation, listening to the waves. The staff was exceptionally helpful and always greeted us with a smile, making us feel truly welcome. The highlight of our stay was the food—delicious, high-quality, and with an extensive menu, plus 24-hour room service! One small suggestion would be to add doorbells to the rooms for added convenience. A huge thank you to the team for making our stay so wonderful!

We stayed together with a friends family at this pristine location 2N stay from 12th to 14th April. It’s a beautiful setting, alongside with one of the best beaches in Sri Lanka with a plus of having a natural sea bathing spot right at edge of hotel. Hotel was great, kids enjoyed to their fullest. Staff was friendly. however we were not pleased with service. Possibly due to new changes they have adopted with the changes in management. Two specific instances first being a hurtful one. 01. My friend had his birthday falling on the second day of our stay, I have informed that during check in to the girl who assisted us and requested a cake to second day breakfast table. It never came, I was arranging it as a surprise but I got surprised by hotel not making a proper note of it. As we are not celebrating birthdays plus as I did not even informed his family about this I got saved. However it’s the first time such a thing happened to me in any of hotels I visited. 02. Meal service was on Ala-carte I am sure that was as briefed by management. However team was not ready to serve such a volume Ala-carte, ideally if you are promoting fine dining you should take pre orders to avoid delays plus have timing. I saw the restaurant manager was sweating in stress. However he was trying to manage it best while being scolded from guests. I hear they plan to close down for renovation soon, I sincerely hope the service will improve and will not ruin this pristine beauty.

We had a great stay here. Loved it. Great staff, very friendly and helpful. View is amazing. Welcome drink was nice. The guys at the gate, very nice. Food is good, but I suggest eat outside, it's nicer and also priced better. Room was clean, sofa was nice. Slippers provided in the room which is nice. Soap shampoo smells very nice. Pillows had a little smell, the kind not dried well after washing. Shower glass bottom cleanliness could be improved.

Nice sea viwe from the room and infinity pool is great. Special thanks to team fortress for organising new year celebrations and "Aurudu Uthsawaya" programme which we enjoyed lots. Turtle hatchery program is commendable and Mr Laksiris is very friendly who is look after the farm. During the stay at hotel Mr Asela Director F&B had good relationships with us.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at The Fortress Resort and Spa in Koggala! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the stunning property and our beautiful room. Every detail was taken care of, and the service was exceptional—always with a friendly smile. The location was perfect, with the pool and beach just ideal for relaxing. The hotel is also convenient to get to other beaches along the south coast. The entire atmosphere was so peaceful and serene, making it the perfect getaway. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here and highly recommend it for anyone looking for a luxurious and tranquil retreat. Can’t wait to return!
