We enjoyed our two night stay at this quiet resort. The pool is wonderful, overlooking beautiful views of mountains and rice fields. The grounds were immaculate and the buffet food was plentiful. Staff were friendly, attentive and the room was very comfortable. Take some time to walk the grounds to discover a cricket pitch, a variety of fruit and nut trees and lovely ponds teeming with fish, frogs and lilies.

Great location, beautiful spacious rooms and very kind service at the reception. Very nice pool.

A dream place in the middle of nature! Absolutely stunning hotel with an eye for details. The staff is very professional and friendly. They organize trips if wanted (e.g. a private driver to the cave temples, Sigiriya rock or a safari tour). The rooms are nice and clean. The food is either served as buffet or a la carte. We also had a massage in the Ayurveda spa which was really good. All in all, we highly recommend the hotel!

Value for money. The room was spacious and clean, however the balcony had only 1 chair which seemed to be pointless coz mostly couples occupy the rooms.We got a fast and early check-in, the staff at the reception are were courteous.

We stayed at OZO for 2 nights whilst exploring Kandy and surrounding areas. Our stay here was very comfortable, and hotel well equipped with good facilities. Good drinks and food selections, we particularly enjoyed unwinding at the roof top pool and bar area. Staff were welcoming, friendly, quick to resolve any issues and answer queries. Thanks for a great stay!

The extra bed (single) supplied in the triple room is not in good quality. It is better to provide a solid wooden bed instead of an iron bed. Iron bed drastically reduced the elegance in the room. Staff should be trained to be more sensitive and responsive to guest requirements.

Any transportation requests through the hotel received a ridiculously hefty mark up. You can easily find affordable tuk tuks to Sigiriya, Dambulla Cave Temple and surrounds the moment you step outside of the resort. Plus, it’s a good way to share your tourist dollars and support the locals. Despite the diverse clientele, food choices were very oriented to western tastes (lots of breads, muffins and “pizza”) which is a pity for anyone wishing to enjoy delicious Sri Lankan cuisine. There was some on offer, but it was very limited and not too memorable. No lunch on offer, assuming most guests remain out on tours for this time, but for those just doing their own thing, you’re very much stuck for food choices at the one restaurant, which only serves breakfast and dinner from 7-9 am/pm.
We enjoyed our two night stay at this quiet resort. The pool is wonderful, overlooking beautiful views of mountains and rice fields. The grounds were immaculate and the buffet food was plentiful.

The staff Restaurant staff need a lot of training. Had to call the restaurant several times to get a room service menu and the waiter who brought in the menu acted unprofessional and a tad bit rude when talking. The restaurant messed up our order and we had to call 2times to get the completed dish according to the menu. Also the person who answered the phone in the restaurant acted as if we made the mistake. At the check-in we were told that the pool closes at 9.30pm but the pool attendant came and said that the pool was closed around 9-9.10. When we asked for pool towels they said they will try to get towel as the towels are at the laundry. The property which was built nicely seemed to be run down due to lack of proper maintenance. All the ponds were very dirty. Our room’s air conditioning was malfunctioning and the maintenance team couldn’t fix it properly, we finally managed to fix it by ourselves. This is not a hotel that we will visit again unless we run out of other options.
Value for money. The room was spacious and clean, however the balcony had only 1 chair which seemed to be pointless coz mostly couples occupy the rooms.We got a fast and early check-in, the staff at the reception are were courteous.
