Excellent Boutique Hotel on perfect beach

Such a lovely hotel, situated on a quiet, beautiful beach. All staff here and at the sister hotel a short walk away were amazing, with a special mention to Rosin and Nedmina (sorry I couldn’t quite remember your full name!) We loved being able to swim in the sea just outside and walking along the beach. A great, comfortable base for exploring the South Coast. Lovely food too-eating on the beach was a real treat!

Great property right on the beach , in comparison the prices in the hotel / restaurant are higher ( which is to be expected) . Staff was lovely , the hotel could do with some small updates / upgrades. Location is very good, under 10 mins to walk into town. Great place if you are looking for something that not in overcrowded part of Sri Lanka

The hotel is right on the most beautiful beach with plenty sun beds available. The pool is very clean. The staff are very helpful and welcoming. The location is great, near Hiriketiya for lots of bars and restaurants but slightly out the way so you basically have Dikwella beach to yourself! The main downside is that the hotel is very loud, it’s a small building so you can hear everything down in the restaurant including music early in the morning and at night. The air con is also pretty weak and the property needs a few updates.

Hyvällä paikalla sijaitseva hotelli. Rannalla merenkäynti oli kova, mutta kävelymatkan päässä ranta, missä voi snorklailla, /uida huoletta, maata aurinkotuoleilla ja ravintoloitakin löytyy. Henkilökunta oli ystävällisiä ja avuliaita. Huone oli hyvin varusteltu ja viihtyisä. Suihkustakin tuli lämmintä vettä ja vedenpaine oli hyvä. Suosittelemme.
