Det var utrolig bra og stabilt wifi-nettverk på hotellet, også på rommet. Personalet var veldig imøtekommende og serviceminded, og de gjorde mer enn forventet. Feks å ordne frokost utenom åpningstider, bestilling av taxi og events. De serverer veldig bra frokost med solide porsjoner i flotte omgivelser. Hotellet ligger i et rolig område.
Vi har ingenting å utsette på selve hotellet, men beliggenheten er et stykke fra gode turiststrender. Men man kan reise med tuk tuk til Mirissa og Weligama på 20-30 minutter.

L'emplacement près des plages. Et le personnel très disponible et sympathique. L'hôte nous a renseigné le lieu où on pouvait voir des tortues. Et nous a proposé de venir prendre le petit déjeuner après le check-out.
Wifi en panne.

I was with my two daughters and our stay at this beachside resort was absolutely magical! The close proximity to the pristine beach and mesmerizing ocean views created a truly blissful atmosphere. The family-friendly environment, great indoor pool, and attentive staff, including an extremely helpful owner, Prasad, made our experience unforgettable. We felt right at home, and the resort's commitment to guest satisfaction was evident in every detail. It's the perfect destination for a serene escape with loved ones. Highly recommended!"
Added bonus: we were able to get up close with a turtle in the sea waters off polhena with the great guidance from the staff( and with the help of the snorkeling gear provided by the resort).
There is none.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at a hotel near Polhena Beach in Sri Lanka, and I must say, it was a fantastic experience. The hotel had one of the best breakfasts I have ever had, with a wide variety of delicious dishes to choose from. The restaurant overlooked the beach, which made for a wonderful start to the day.
The hotel was also conveniently located just a short walk from the beach, which was perfect for early morning or sunset strolls. The beach itself was beautiful, with crystal-clear waters and soft, white sand. The hotel even provided beach towels and chairs for their guests.
But what really made my stay special was the staff. They were incredibly friendly and helpful, always going above and beyond to ensure that my stay was comfortable and enjoyable. They truly made me feel at home.
Overall, I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a relaxing and enjoyable stay near Polhena Beach. The delicious breakfast, convenient location, and friendly staff make it a top choice for any traveler.

Everything was perfect and amazing. The boutique hotel was an exceptional place to relax and unwind. It offers great family entertainment such as pool facilities, free bicycles for anyone to have a relaxed ride around the area, delicious food to satisfy anyone's palette and taste and they arrange trips to the turtle farms, whale watching tours or anywhere you wish to visit during your stay. From the owner Dr Prasad to everyone there make sure that you are well looked after to the maximum.
Everything was just great...we had a great relaxed stay after a long time

The hotel is located close to the beach and you'll have great views from the balcony.
The room is well equipped (A/C, fridge, safe, kettle, balcony etc) and had a comfortable bed. Everything was spotlessly clean and in good shape.
Check-in and Check-out were easy and fast.
The owners asked us about breakfast and what we would like and prepared accordingly. They were also kind to organise a tuktuk for us to bring us to Matara.
Polhena beach is a true gem on the south coast and was my favorite among all I saw. They also have some restaurants close by.
Not a big problem, but the owners were never replying to my messages sent on booking and the number on booking.com was not responding. So we had to call the number you'll find on Google.

Everything went well, staff is polite and very helpful, the owner Prasad is well communicating a and willing to help. Rooms are quit large and cozy. Nothing to complain about, just the location is near Polhena beach, which is overcrowded, but you can still travel with tuk tuk to Madiha beach, which is better and not so overcrowded.
The only drawback is slow and unreliable Internet access, but this is in the process of upgrading to a better service. If the internet access gets better, then this hotel is suitable for remote workers and digital nomads :-)
Just the Internet access

Resort provided good daily western breakfasts. Central courtyard pool was just the right temperature. Staff were attentive and helpful. Alternative restaurant choices also available nearby. All just a short TukTuk ride from town.

The hotel is close to ocean, Polhena beach is ver near. The view from the room is wonderful. We really enjoyed the balcony with an ocean view. The room is cosy, has air conditioner and mosquito net. The bed is comfortable. The staff was super friendly! As we didn't asked till what time is the breakfast, they provided it when we woke up. Even if it was after 11 o'clock. The breakfast is quite good. As for the surrounding, the area is quite, there are many cheap sea food restaurants ver near. I strongly recommend to visit the bar and live house The Doctors House, which is about 15 minutes walk from our hotel.
The swimming pool is in the shadow, so the water could be not warm. But if compare to very warm ocean it could be even benefit. But we didn't use it much. I would also recommend the host to provide several chairs for sun tanning. One more big mirror in the room would be also highly appreciated.

beautifully large room with balcony and a sea view to die for. Staff were very helpful and little extras like a ride to an ATM or free load of a bicycle all made me feel part of the family :)
There was a noisy bar opposite but i was there over a public holiday so nothing to do with the hotel whatsoever

All the staff is really friendly and helpful. Big thanks to the guys in the rooftop restaurant, they cooked the greatest fish for us! Sunset from the rooftop is beautiful.
We stayed here for 1 night on Saturday, next to the hotel there is a bar with the loud music, it was impossible to rest in the evening till 12, maybe they have parties only on Saturday, I'm not sure. Room and hotel is older then on photos. Swimming pool is not so sunny and comfy.

We were greeted by friendly staff and refreshing welcome drink and it only got better from there. The rooms were comfortable, spacious and aesthetic with a beautiful view of the ocean. The perfect environment to relax as well as having plenty of fun activities such as kanoing. The highlight of our trip however was the delicious food from the rooftop seafood restaurant .
