Sri LankaAmazing breakfast coffee and croissants!! Staff were outstanding!!! Incredibly beautiful property and attention to detail. The place is a Labour of love for sure.. at every level! Kabiluxman and Dinali were super!! But so was each and everyone else- top to bottom excellence among staff!
Sri LankaThe hotel is beautiful!!! Everything is clean and they take care of the area inkl. the beach constantly. The food is excellent! The manager is very nice and friendly and often says hallo during breakfast& dinner and asks if everything is fine and has a small chat with every guest. Though there are not many things to do around and no other restaurants at the beach you won't get bored. They offer lots of tings like a candle light dinner, movies at the beach, spa, stand up paddling etc. It was a pleasure to stay here and we didn't want to leave!
GermanyThe seafront tent was amazing, The roar of the sea was loud, The bed was comfy. The food was exceptional. One of our group had a huge graze on her leg after an accident and Bianca took it upon herself, with a colleague to clean the wound, we were very grateful. K Uthershan and R Thushenthan also deserve a mention for brilliant service.
