Absolutely everything - the staff could not do enough for you - special thanks to Lucky for his amazing yoga which pushed us to the limits, Dilip for his wonderful cocktails and Daya for keeping our room so clean. Also a huge thanks the the amazing smiling chef who taught us to cook Sri Lankan food 😁

Belinda Jersey

Size of both the bedroom and bathroom was great and stunning views from the balcony over the beach. Facilities in the room were also excellent - everything you could need. Staff were exceptional and couldn't do enough to help. Particularly loved the personal touch of selecting which scent of handmade soap we wanted (we chose cinnamon) for the bathroom and watching them cut it from the block for us. The open style setting of the dining area looking over the pool & beach was beautiful and food excellent.
