Liked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
The property itself was nice, especially the pool. It’s in a very remote area though so count on that you have to get back early and spend your evenings there. Stuff was nice and helpful. Kind of disappointed at the high price of the dinner (higher price than in a nice restaurant in Colombo) and that they charge you for water (tripple price). I’d rather give a nice tip than to feel ripped off since you’re kind of depending on eating there. Even though it’s not much money, it destroys the overall experience. Also the owner just messaged me the bill, no ”hope you’ve enjoyed your holidays” or whatsover. I’d appreciate more service minded approach.

Excellent !

Séjour reposant dans un cadre calme avec une belle chambre et une piscine. Un service appréciable à toute heure de la journée et aux petits soins. Hotel, facile d’accès, cependant si vous n’avez pas le chauffeur privé, il peut être difficile de trouver un tuktuk pour la nuit du aux éléphants dans cette zone.
