“Great location with sweet staff and very good food. Stay a few days and explore the area.”
This was a great find. Location next to the airport and close to the beach, amazingly welcoming staff, delicious breakfast and a very nice pool for our kids where they spent most of their time. Great food and very accessible prices. The rooms are very spacious. It’s not just a location for a quick stop over after arrival, but actually a great stay in the area.

“Perfect Stay for Families for the Beginning or End of a Sri Lanka Trip”
This accommodation was a great choice for spending our last day of our Sri Lanka trip in a relaxed and comfortable way. The atmosphere was calm, the rooms expedient making it ideal for families to enjoy the final hours before departure. We enjoyed a good dinner at the property, and the pool was perfect for one last refreshing swim before traveling home. A special plus was the included airport transfer at 4:00 in the morning, which worked perfectly and completely stress-free. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a comfortable and reliable stay close to the airport.

“A very pleasant find”
Hotel organised a pick up from Colombo airport at 5.30am, this was on time and comfortable. Dinner was very nice and tasty. The staff were very attentive and pleasant. Breakfast was extremely nice. Two swimming pools, both clean and a good size and pleasant to swim in. Should we return to Sr Lanka we would not hesitate to book again. Good value for the price.
