What a special place! My room was spotless and the staff were warm, kind, and attentive, and always willing to help with whatever I needed. The setting is fabulous - right on the ocean with a magnificent pool. The sea breeze was delightfully cooling as we ate delicious meals in the restaurant. The small raft was a super fun way to access the hotel when we arrived, and added to the tropical adventure atmosphere.

It should be maintained well. Cleanliness is nill and food is not nice and quality too. Ordered a burger on A la carte and the burger bun was just a ball of flour. French fries were over cooked. Salt & Pepper holdings were so dirty. Stayed hungry at that night and as there were no any restaurants close by. Had cockroaches in bathroom and bedroom.Gully was full of rustic. Was a horrible stay. Never recommend for any.

No acceptable plug-ins for our phones. No adapters available at the reception. Had the farthest room from the center. Hot water only available after mid-day due to solar heating. Meal hours very limited.

Die Anlage ist malerisch gelegen, der Strand ist wunderschön und das gelände hat großes Potential. Leider ist das Hotel auf dem absteigenden Ast. Wenn man ins Detail schaut müsste an vielen Stellen was ausgebessert werden, dafür fehlt wohl aber das Geld. Das Essen war in Ordnung, da kann man nichts sagen. Der Service lies etwas zu wünschen übrig, aber nach ein paar Anmerkungen wurde es besser. Leider fehlt gutes Entertainment, gefühlt sind um 21 Uhr die Bordsteine hochgeklappt. Kein wirkliches abendliches Barambiente, obwohldie möglichkeit da ist. Die Zimmer sind sauber und groß.

Beautiful. Kind staff. Breakfast served too late.

Lovely and spacious room but some path construction made it a bit confusing getting to it. Breakfast started at 7:30am which made it difficult for us to get an early start on our bikes. Given the heat, it made it difficult to complete our scheduled arrival 90 km north. We asked if we could start breakfast early but they did not allow this. So I would recommend this place for people needing an early start on the day. The food was delicious though! I loved the Sri Lankan dishes they served. There was a school group there, from Colombo, that took over the beautiful pool for quite a while. The staff was helpful at getting us to a bike repair shop in town. So the staff was extremely kind to us during our stay.

Et trist og akt for dyrt charter hotel....

Resortet ligge øde og langt væk. Et typisk charter hotel, hvor de ikke engang modtager egen valuta men kun euro og dollars. Vores værelse lå 10 minutters gang fra lobbyen. Der er kun wifi i lobbyen som var næsten ikke eksisterende og intet signal på værelserne. Personalet var ikke af den samme høje standard af høflighed og venlighed som vi ellers mødte igennem flere ugers rejse på Sri Lanka. Man skal tage en lille båd hen til resortet som overhovedet ikke er bekvemt. Det ligger en time fra lufthavnen og en taxa koster 45USD! Selv en øl i baren koster 5euro. Alt for dyrt ift hvad man får. Poolområdet er alt for småt ift gæster og det koster penge at låne håndklæde og liggestol. Alt i alt en dårlig oplevelse...

Location and privacy great. The rooms and bathrooms were clean. Towels had old stains.Pool deck needed repairs. Buffet was ok, selection was not good. It needs to be changed daily. The barbecue was overcooked. Nightly music was awful needs to be up lifting. There was only one band of trio that was good. Would stay again due to the private location. Hotel needs to enforce swim wear at pool. People should not be able to wear street clothes.
