"We stayed at this hotel in November and enjoyed it very much. Our room was spacious and we had a pool/sea view. The room was cleaned every day. The food was very good with plenty of choice. Very novel getting the boat across the lake to the hotel."
"We stayed 4 nights.
Absolutely wonderful! Here you get a high-class hotel with a consistently high level. Very nice, well-renovated/built rooms with a high standard, wonderful hotel/pool area, walking distance to the wonderful beach where the hotel also offers sunbeds free of charge, well-stocked gym and much more. large breakfast buffet, both international and local.
The service level is incredibly high where you want to give that little extra all the time. High professional service level on everything from cleaners, reception to bartender and the service staff who take care of the pool/towels. They usually know what you will ask for before you do it. such as wifi passwords to adapters to charge your mobile phone.
We can highly recommend this luxury gem! For me and my daughter it was a perfect start to our adventure in Sri Lanka! Anders and Emilia from Stockholm / Sweden"
"Staff were amazing and went above and beyond for us. Breakfast was lovely they gave us a selection of fruits, toast an omelette and pots of tea and coffee. Highly recommend "
