Personnel aimable et très à l'écoute, toujours prêt à répondre au moindre désir. Nous avons beaucoup apprécié pouvoir nous entretenir en français avec Evelyne, une des co-propriétaires présente et très sympathique. Chambres spacieuses, lit confortable, salle de bain semi-extérieur très agréable. Le salon extérieur sur jardin est confortable et très agréable, nous y avons eu la visite de singes sauvages, non agressifs, venus se nourrir dans les arbres bordant le jardin. Autres points très positifs: la piscine avec son eau cristalline à plus de 30° et la plage avec ses pêcheurs et ses rochers qui nous ont rappelé les Seychelles. Hôtel parfait pour une extension balnéaire après un circuit ou une visite du Sri Lanka. Nous y sommes restés 6 jours et en sommes repartis avec regret.

La nourriture au restaurant était délicieuse, mais le service souvent long alors que l'hôtel n'était qu'à moitié plein.

The hotel is situated in a quiet area among private houses. This means that there are no shops and restaurants nearby. The village at the main road is not touristic, only local people. It is very nice place with pool and beach which begins on the hotel territory. The beach is quiet, only one more hotel is situated here. As I understand all villas are the same, but some of them are near the pool, others aren’t. Each villa has a room with bathroom and a terrace. Rooms are clean and have a modern interior. Restaurant is a-la cart (breakfast too).

It takes some time to reach other places.

Nous occupions un bungalow avec une terrasse couverte donnant sur un jardin privatif, tres agréable.Le personnel est très attentif. Les repas au restaurant sont bien présentés et excellents ! Petit déjeuner bons et copieux ! Ambiance bord de mer très agréable. grande piscine super propre à deux pas d'un plage magnifique. on peut passer de la plage à la piscine, juste en se rinçant sous la douche extérieure, et s'installer sur un transat. wifi partout, même à la piscine !

NICHTS, The Place should be closed , this is cheating / Useless staff / food a disaster, we had to stay one night , than left, but were forced from Booking.com / Jetwing to pay full amount, this is even worse

All run down place

Pool and beach amazing. It felt like we had the beach and pool basically to ourselves with our toddler. Brilliantly family friendly and kind staff. Good food and lovely breakfast. Arranged great boat safari for us picked up straight from beach in front of hotel. Calm sea which was great for swimming, even with our toddler! very comfy bed too and beautiful cot provided. Also v quick to sort out our change in dates due to flight delay and price confusion too which was really appreciated.

Very quiet which was perfect for us but might not suit others. Felt expensive compared to other places we have stayed on our trip but we had a great time so it was worth it:

Very nice staff working in this lovely hotel. We spent a great week at this branch of paradise. The breakfast is delicious as well as the dinner. Our villa is well equipped, the bed is large and comfortable. Thank you for the great choice of pillows in the room. The shower room has a great view of the jungle. It was also nice to find a luxury set of cosmetics for the shower and dental care. There is enough space near the pool, comfortable wide sunbeds, silence and relaxation. Many thanks to the lovely man on the beach who keeping us in safe during the swimming in the ocean. He was always very helpful and smiling.

Sometimes the air conditioner rattled and cracked during operation. Too much of noisy russians who quarrel all the time

This was one of the best place where we spent vacation on the sea side. There are many places which arranged like royal palaces, but we personally prefer different: real wild natural ocean beach, but clean and nice for safe swimming (big-big plus for Sri-Lanka, where strong waves may block any swimming in the ocean), lovely palm garden which size and small number of hotel guests create luxury space for peaceful time spending: you are in the center of very attentive service for whatever you need: sunny or shadow, ocean view or pool view, table outdoor or in classic restaurant, wine or fruit fresh juices, sea food or European kitchen… Everything is organized professionally and absolutely individually. The waiters were warm, not just formal (Phil and his colleague were very doing there work in really very good way ), the safeguard on the beach - is not about only safety, but center of the sunny good mood and any help you may need: extra towel, moving the sun-bed… And I want personally and especially thanks Mrs. Nirodha Silva, the hotel manager - anything we wanted was arranged absolutely professionally , nothing was forgotten or missed, all on time… Many thanks!

Off course if you want something better, it exist in many other 5*lux destination - better furniture, better showers… But this hotel is unique in completely different way: it’s perfectly integrated in nature with offering all necessary comfort facilities. There is a lot of space in your private garden for yoga, coffee corner and even there is Buddha sculpture..

modern villa design and the beach; we had 3 good dinners during our 4 nights stay, and 1 good lunch which the chef offered to make up for a mediocre breakfast we could not eat

Poor maintenance, rude service: on 19 December-day one I was walking barefoot from the beach to the pool and found a pile of dog poo on the lawn, and the pool toilet grubby, infested with bugs and no hand towels; shockingly it was in the same state on the next day and was reported. Heavy metallic sunbeds were a struggle to move with the shade but no assistance was offered. We found mosquitoes in our room and patio and big red ants on the steps to the roof terrace - a spray was given to us. In the early evening of 19 December when I was on my way from the beach to the room in a dripping wet swimsuit a pushy restaurant worker stopped me with a menu and insisted to order dinner on the spot (I said we would have dinner in about 2-3 hours). When I was trying to excuse myself he informed he would call our room in 5 minutes to take the order. We don't eat early, and asked until what time dinner was served, which was supposedly 2100. On the next day the same worker confronted us to finish dinner by 2030! the day after he even came to our room to urge us to the restaurant. The entrance to the staff area is right by the pool: male workers were lingering and staring - I had to move to another sunbed. It was a task to get a second beach towel explaining the first one was wet. Our first breakfast was basic caf style fried food instead of the preordered. We left most of it but for the next 3 days we still had to send dishes back. We raised all issues with a manager in a sari who in turn challenged us to move to a big resort of JetWing chain as more suitable (!) At the check out we asked to take service charge off, they refused saying other guests pay even higher rates for the same dates, up to $370 a night. FYI average monthly wages in Sri Lanka around $ 130-150. The British owner was there at the time using a smallish pool for intense evening swimming in a snorkel mask (not to face guests?) hardly leaving space for anyone else, and that was the only presence.
