“Fabulous place at a very good price & fantastic staff”
Everything . My flights were cancelled 3 times so I decided to stay here for my final night as it’s closer to the airport. Fabulous hospitality from the time I arrived until I left . Great swimming pool . The rooms were also amazing with a hot shower , good size bed and a very good mattress. The town itself has some good restaurants. If you looking for a haircut, hair coloring, pedicure or an amazing manicure please go to sh-WOAH Beaute House .

“Unbelievable place to stay, beautiful and fabulous restaurant food!!”
Absolutely best accommodation we had in Sri Lanka, from the fabulous service, the freshest food and lovely rooms and pool. The weather was hot and the pool made our time in Negrombo more comfortable. Judith and Saman were so helpful and lovely. Cooking delicious food and driving us to the airport. Their staff were always attentive. We finished our month long trip here and what a fabulous end. Make sure you order the seafood platter, so fresh and delicious!

“Welcoming”
The staff all were lovely. A very peaceful dining courtyard. The owners did the cooking, which was good and gave a personal touch. It was not expensive, so the rooms were not fancy, but they had aircon and a fridge. Sri Lanka needs more fridges in rooms! Half a km walk to the beach and shops. I would definitely go back.
