Lovely hotel stay
Stayed here for 5 nights with my boyfriend and loved our stay! The hotel was absolutely lovely. The staff were friendly, attentive, present and were constantly one step ahead. Breakfast was delicious - fruit, curd and eggs - and very filling. Our room was a good size and clean. I really enjoyed the small touches at the hotel, such as the umbrellas, torch (1 10min blackout), tissues in bedroom, fridge and mosquito plug and net. Lovely pool and good Location -30 min walk or 5 min tuk tuk (LKR300) to beach. Small hotel so very quiet and private like you have it to yourself. Only saw another room at breakfast twice and never had to share the pool! Only improvement would be incorporating Sri Lankan food at breakfast. Would recommend!

Super friendly staff, nothing is too much trouble and everything is done with a sincere smile:) Delicious and varied breakfast deserves 5stars. The room is spacious and bedding so comfortable and luxurious. Very private and personal with balcony, and the swimming pool can be just for you. Highly recommended!

A true treasure hotel
The best hotel of our trip. The property is amazing, a superb colonial house surrounded by a charming tropical garden. The hotel is a few minutes walking from the beach but far from the usual tourists chaotic spot. The hotel manager and all the Staff was extremely nice and helpful. Our room was beautiful, spacious, just perfect. The breakfast was delicious and the food presentation was fantastic!

Mette, it was good 20 minute walk from the beach, so I had to get a driver everyday. The hotel rang a driver for me.

Beautiful jungle retreat
i stayed for four nights. They have five guestrooms but I was the only guest there. They took good care of me while I was there and even arranged for my transport to the next place I was visiting. Thumbs up! If you are looking for total privacy beside from the monkeys in the treetops, this is the spot!
