Kay Jay Beach House - Pasikudha

"The hotel staff was very friendly. They helped us whenever we needed them (even at 6:30 in the morning) and were always very courteous. The pool was nice, but the water was very warm. As for the rest of the facilities, the room was fine, and the bathroom was small but adequate. The living room was also nice."

"Do not do this to yourself. I repeat, DO NOT do this to yourself! This is not a hotel you want to stay at for anything more than $20 per night. Understaffed, haven’t had a working bar in weeks (if not months). The pool is a gangrenous mess, almost guaranteed to cripple the rest of your holiday with Montezuma’s Revenge (photo included). I’d imagine the food would be similar, if they bothered to cook any (evening restaurant picture included). No protection from insects in the shower windows. Some guests were using towels to block the swarms of wasps entering to terrorise them in a vulnerable state (photo included…of the towels…). Sacrificing one of the two bathmats provided as ‘towels’ (photo included) highlights just how terrifying the wasp situation must have been for some. If you like a few cold sundowners, don’t go looking here for any joy. There is no bar. The hotel claim they have been waiting for a ‘liquor order’ for 15 days, but it’s clearly a practised line they’ve been spouting for sometime longer than this. Photo of the empty ‘bar’, and the available stock attached. The beach is nice. Not enough umbrellas or beds (actually there probably are thinking about it, to accommodate the three desperate souls rattling around here). Looking at past reviews, this was once a passable hotel. It’s clearly fallen on hard times, and don’t appear to have enough funds left to actually, you know, run anything resembling a working hotel. $140 per night is truly criminal for this place. We ran away as soon as possible (a few hours), and luckily found refuge at the Sunrise Hotel next door for around the same rate. The Sunrise is absolutely wonderful. Only stay at this hotel if you are a masochist who likes burning money, and you have no interest in enjoying literally anything about being here."
