The Fortress Resort and Spa

Nadika Jayawardena

It has one of the most beautiful hotel entrances, with the sea visible as soon as the huge Fortress doors are opened. Friendly and welcoming staff, with valet parking, and smooth check in. The rooms were huge and staff came and explained the room in detail for each room. The pool is huge and is amazing. The kids loved the gradient floor of the pool, the gardens and the swings placed at different locations were very thoughtful for that overall relaxing experience. The sauna, steam room, spa were all very good. The gym was well equipped too. The food was quite good with a good variation. An area to work on would be to not have long intervals when serving the a la cart menu, as we had to sometimes wait more than 20 minutes for the food to come. When we mentioned this to them they made sure that it didn't happen on the second day, which was a great improvement. All in all, it was a great experience.

The Fortress is a simply magnificent Resort. This beach front Resort has all the facilities you can ever want for a relaxing and truly enjoyable experience. (pools, spa, gym, great restaurants and Bar, delicious and an array of foods just to name a few.) The staff are amazing, very hospitable and always welcoming and friendly. We travelled from Australia and stayed two nights in the Ocean room which was very spacious and clean with all the facilities you need. We had our Wedding Ceremony at the Fortress and there is simply no words to describe the wonderful experience we had. Every aspect of our wedding ceremony was professionally and meticulously arranged by the staff at the Fortress. From organising the necessary marriage documents to the floral arrangements, wedding bouquets and bower, decorations, cake, celebrant, music, photography, special celebratory dinner, and the list goes on., we couldn’t have been happier with all of these things and the very best service we received at the Fortress. A special mention to our wedding coordinator ‘GAYANI’ who went above and beyond to make sure that our wedding ceremony was successful and memorable. Her attention to detail and dedication to make sure we were happy with all the arrangements is something we will always remember and be grateful for. From the time we arrived until we checked out the service was exceptional. All the staff never fail to smile and greet us. The food was delicious & the atmosphere was refreshing.

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 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.

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!
