Fantastic location - seconds from door of our family room to the beach. The hotel was close to restaurants and shops but just set back - making it convenient and quiet. The rooms were clean and comfortable. Helpfully the manager let us store our luggage after check-out. Beach outside was kept clean.

“Super place to relax in paradise”
Fantastic location, peaceful, excellent service & fair prices. Everyone was friendly, helpful, and the onsite restaurant food was super tasty. I’ll be pre-ordering the Traditional Sri Lankan breakfast again - yum! My friends and I could not have asked for more to relax on 30 May in the Deluxe Double Rooms with Sea View. With a cold drink in hand & perfect breeze, I plan to bring my family next time. I particularly loved the grass, playful squirrels & group dining table area - please keep those features! Big thanks to all who work there!!
