Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers comfortable and spacious rooms where guests can spend leisure time with family. The sliding panels in front of the balcony window make the rooms virtually soundproof when closed. However, the room size is smaller compared to suites in other five or four-star hotels in Sri Lanka.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel. The rooms were spacious, clean, and offered incredible views of the garden and sea. The service was outstanding, especially from Rukmal who went above and beyond to ensure my family's comfort. The beach location was fantastic, offering a relaxing atmosphere with a gentle sea breeze. The dining experience was enjoyable but could use a bit more variety. Overall, a great choice for a beach escape with exceptional customer service.
My stay at the hotel was absolutely amazing! The rooms were incredibly spacious with a balcony overlooking the smaller pool, which was a delightful bonus. The private jacuzzi and two TVs added a touch of luxury to the experience. The service was top-notch, with attentive and friendly staff always ready to assist. The location, right on the spectacular beach, couldn't have been better. The dining experience was decent, offering a mix of Sri Lankan and International cuisine. Overall, a fantastic stay with great value for money.
