Staying at Buckingham Place in Sri Lanka was a truly special experience. Imagine coming back from a long, hot walk by the sea, just wishing for a sip of cold water. When you step inside, a friendly barman is there to offer you exactly that—this is one of the numerous examples showing the dedication and care of the hotel team. Throughout your stay, the staff always go out of their way to make you feel valued and looked after. This high level of hospitality is thanks to Nick, the owner, who personally talks to every guest and puts his heart into the place. The staff are attentive and professional, the rooms are spaciuos, private and stylish, and the surroundings are green and beautiful. The food is delicious, with options from both Sri Lankan and Western cuisines. Little things like free drinking water, complimentary drinks & snacks in your minibar, and fresh flower decorations make your stay really special. Plus, there's a really big pool where you can enjoy a good swim. Here's a fun fact: I forgot my swimsuit at the hotel and the team kindly arranged for it to be brought to me to the airport, which is 3 hours drive (!) This is a true example of going extra mile for your customer. Most guests come back again to this hotel, and it's easy to see why—Nick and his team are doing a fantastic job of making everyone feel welcome and happy.

We arrived at the property rather tired after a lengthy "marathon" through Sri Lanka touristy hot spots. We find this place to suit our relaxing needs perfectly - no crowds around, no scream noises, no rush. The soothing white noise by background ocean waves, wind, trees, birds! The surrounding beach, the actual place, the well planned, spotless buildings and structures, delicious (delicious, indeed) meals, the professional, attentive, yet not disturbing staff - what can be better than this! And, at the centre of it all - Nick, the owner - such a charismatic person, a pleasure to meet and talk, thank you! The Buckingham Place far exceeded our initial expectations, based on previously read great reviews.

It's hard to put into words how special our Christmas was here at Buckingham Place. Nick and the team are the most wonderful hosts and the hotel is the perfect venue. We arrived on Christmas Eve a bit earlier than check in but our room was ready and waiting for us. Spending the day strolling along the stunning beach, exploring the hotel's gardens and relaxing in the infinity pool was pure bliss. Christmas Day itself was magical. Nick and his team really thought of everything from a stocking filled with local produce and a card signed by the whole team to mince pies and sherry round the pool. The hotel oozes warmth and excellence and the Christmas feast certainly lived up to these qualities! Our final morning was spent with Bella, the resident pup, who took us for our final beach stroll. Buckingham Place really is a slice of paradise in Sri Lanka: a dream come true stay. Thank you so much Nick and the team.

The photographs do not do this place justice - Buckingham Place is such a haven of tranquility and calm that is so difficult to find in hotels nowadays. The beautiful beach with not a soul in sight, the incredible view and pool, the amazing food. The staff were so thoughtful, kind and attentive. The general manager was lovely, as were the wider staffing team, they couldnt do enough for you. And the owner, Nick, is a great guy to chat with. We only stayed for a couple of nights but I wish I had booked longer! It was a real oasis, and probably the biggest surprise of our three week trip in Sri Lanka.

There is nothing not to like, it is perfect in every way.

The staff and service were exceptional. Nothing is too much trouble and everything is possible - a yoga mat and googles were easily produced! It really is a beautiful place, the room was just amazing! Little touches that show Nick and his team are truly seeking to provide perfection. We loved that breakfast could be had at any time and was not a buffet but very decent. Menu changed and there was a good selection that was beautifully presented and everything tasted fantastic. The infinty pool is fabulous and one you can actually swim lengths in too... not some silly shape!

It's not considered safe to swim in the sea next to the hotel - but it is a nonetheless a spectacular beach and virtually deserted.

An absolute Oasis of calm and tranquility but just a tuk tuk ride from the lively beach bars and restaurants. Immaculately and stylishly presented property serviced by the most attentive staff. The food was exceptional with a fabulous menu changing from day to day and we were made to feel extra special as we on our honeymoon ❤️ The pool was excellent and the largest we swam in whilst in SL. The owner Nick was a fabulous host and hopefully we will return again when in this magical country.

We had an amazing time at Buckingham Place. Nick and his staff make sure that you feel welcome and comfortable during your whole stay. No matter what questions we had, the staff made sure to help us. In our case, they organized a day trip in Tangalle. The food is great for local as well as western cuisine. The menu changes every day. The pool area is very relaxing and the beach just in front of the hotel is quiet, big and very beautiful. One of the nicest and cleanest beaches we saw in Sri Lanka. The rooms are big and spacious. We slept very well in the comfortable beds. If you are staying at this hotel, you should also try a massage. The prices are fair and the massages are some of the best we had in Sri Lanka. Even after checking out, Nick told us to reach out to him if we have any problems during our travels accross Sri Lanka. We will definitly come back.

It is a bit far away from the city center but the staff will gladly organize you a transport, so this isn't really an issue

Nick and his team have created an absolute paradise! We loved it so much, we didn’t leave the premises for 3 days. It was the perfect first stop on our Sri Lanka tour and the staff made our stay really special to kick off our honeymoon. The hotel is colorful, well maintained and surrounded by lush gardens with direct access to the beach. The common areas and room were spacious and immaculately clean. Plenty of corners to relax, lounge or socialize depending on what you are looking for. Food was delicious and the menu changed daily (covering local cuisine, western options and a full vegetarian menu). All that said, it’s the staff who really make this place so special. Attentive but discreet, always smiling, readily available for any requests you may have and quick with the eyes to identify swimming sea turtles throughout the day!

This place is exceptional and we are very fussy. The grounds are very nice and large and peaceful. The room was huge and very clean and bright and just a relaxing place to be. The bed was very comfortable. The bathroom is nice and although outside there were no bug issues so it was very pleasant. The room overlooks the lagoon which is nice as it’s very quiet. The restaurant, bar and pool area overlooks the ocean which was nice and there are many places to sit and relax. The pool was so clean and relaxing. The restaurant area is very bright. The food was very good quality and they catered to making it more spicy upon request which is great as most restaurants in hotels reduce the spice. There was plenty of variety of food and everything was good. The cocktails were very good too. The wine was good. The food is decent price for this type of place. The service from everyone in the hotel was exceptional they were all perfect as they knew what one wanted or needed and they were friendly and helpful but not in your way all the time or over the top like many other places. The wifi worked well. Rhey also organised transport to our next destination. The beach is nice to walk and we don’t generally swim in the beach anyway so this place was perfect for us. The breakfast was yum, particularly the Sri Lankan breakfast. The owner, Nick was also very friendly and clearly put a lot of effort into making sure people are happy. Everything was just perfect and the staff were great which made it so nice and made us not want to leave the property at all for the two days which is not like us at all but this place is very relaxing and a must stay when coming to Sri Lanka.

Nothing we loved it all.

We never planned to go to Tangalle. Reading the reviews of this property put Tangalle on the radar for us. I read somewhere that Nick (the owner) once said: “I became utterly mesmerized by the chaotic beauty of this island and its peoples’ great charm. From that moment my head, heart, body and soul took root here…” I believe, a part of us took root at Buckingham Place. We shall return. And you, yes you reading this, get your butt over there ASAP!
