It is really the best place for surfers. The restaurant is amazingly good (it is not common for Sri Lanka :)). Huge variety of european and local cuisine. Everything is tasty! It also worth mentioning that that was the only place on the island where I really enjoyed local cuisine dishes. The owner of the hotel is super friendly. He always provides with an advise, helps to solve the problem, organizes a surfing lesson. We will definitely come back again to catch the wave :)

Nikita Russia

Beautiful spot by the beach at whiskey point. The rooms are perfect and thoughtfully laid out. Great staff and food. Had an all around excellent time here.

Adam Canada

Caring, nice talk, food, swimming pool, nice arrangements in the room

Niranga Sri Lanka

Extremly nice place, with a few bungalos around a pool with palm trees, close by the beach. Owner couple from Switzerland lives and works there too. In Swiss style, everything works and is organized. Bungalo facilities are thought threw and food is extremly tasty and aforable. Also value for money is great (we were in the off season, so cant tell for main saison). Super relaxing. Staff and owner are very friendly and relaxed. Would definitvely stay again.
