Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Lovely boutique hotel around 15 minutes drive from Hiriketiya. Staff were really friendly, the room was clean and practical (although we would appreciate more storage space). Very quiet away from the main road so you won’t hear cars beeping
Stayed 4 nights in Jan 2026
