I am asking for help choosing a hotel.
Having read a little about Sri Lanka, I ask you to help me choose a hotel: Excursions 3 * (3d / 2n) + Kosgoda Beach 3 * + 2495 USD
Excursions 3 * (3d / 2n) + Villa Ocean View 3 * + 2666 USD villa number, 2765
dol superior room
Excursions 3 * (3d / 2n) + Induruwa Beach 3 * 2666 USD
Excursions 3* (3d/2n) + Paradise Beach 3*+ 2991 USD I really hope that Lanka-Lanochka will respond ... Maybe I'm wrong and it's better to book excursions on the spot. But I would like to have more certainty even before departure from Kyiv. Departure 25.01.2012. As I understand it, $600 is supposed to be paid for the tour.

for 300 dollars you can take a car with a driver and drive around the whole country, slowly visiting all the sights. and you have 600 in 3 days! For 3 days, it's a "gallop" well, or just watch from the bus window.

Sorry, for wandering through the Negev desert and a long road to Slovakia, I did not notice the question.
For hotels on the coast, she answered a personal E-mail.
The proposed options, in my opinion, are NOT the best: inexpressive or with a dubious level of service.
But about the "gallop", more precisely, the volume of excursions
you can argue with tourexpert:
3 days, if the tour is individual and the guide is experienced, allow you to see the main attractions in the area of the so-called. "Cultural Triangle" - Sigiriya and Polonnaruwa, Dambulla and Kandy. It is quite enough to get an impression of the country's past for 2000 years, and at the same time to get acquainted with the way of life of the Sri Lankans, the traditions of the peoples inhabiting the island (the ethnic composition is quite motley and the picture is quite colorful), the nature of the island and taste the curious taste and aroma of Sri Lankan cuisine .
And the statements that for "300 dollars" you can travel around the country, in my opinion, are advertising and optimistic: tickets to UNESCO sites (Sigiriya, Polonnaruwa, Dambulla and the temple in Kandy) cost a lot. Multiply by two + guide services + car ... If we talk about a high-quality excursion, albeit a private one, it is unlikely that you will meet $ 300 overnight along the route.

Lanka, you misunderstood me. I meant that 3 days of a group tour is very little. Even if you go through a triangle, then most likely Anuradhapura or Piradeniya or Pinnawala takes off. Or it will all be a "gallop". I offer $ 300 to go around the whole country! By visiting ALL places. It's possible! Last year, a car with a driver cost me $ 50 per day (when ordered for 4 days) 2 nights in a guest house with dinner and breakfast for two for $ 35-40. So consider $ 200 car + 80 accommodation. Naturally, I did not take into account the entrance fees here. But even with them it will be cheaper. Their cost is $ 50 when buying a complex visit + $ 15 to the temple of the tooth of the buddha. For two, this is another 130 dollars. Pinnawala + Piradeniya, let it be another 50 dollars.

Dear tourexpert, perhaps I misunderstood your calculations, and such a budget exists. But in this case, you are talking about private accommodation (guesthouses) in an INDEPENDENTLY organized tour. And for this you need to have some experience, preferably a list of verified accommodations (because they are not standardized, and can be either a cozy place or "tired" poorly organized dormitories) and a recommendation for organizing a tour.
Tourists, on the other hand, book a tour through an agency, and travel companies, as you know, do not work with non-standardized accommodations, but mainly with hotels.
About the volume of excursions: The trip in a 3-day package, as a rule, follows the day of acquaintance with Kandy, it takes 2 - 2.5 hours (I know from personal experience).
Pinnawala can be "passed", more precisely, not called in, replacing it with a safari in one of the parks along the route (Minneriya, for example).
Anuradhapura is an amazing place, but if there are Sigiriya, Dambulla and Polonnaruwa in the program, impressions of ancient Lanka and the great Sinhalese capitals will be enough for the first acquaintance.
After all, Lanochka is a multifaceted island, the level of "immersion in the topic" is different for different tourists, so it's worth returning to the country.
