Checked out early as not great & no refund
The resort is nice and wonderful view of the pool, but the feel of it wasnt for us and tje wifi being terrible meantnww ciuldbt stsy are we needed to be able to do some onojne work. When we asked to check out 1 night early from our 3 night stay they said they would try to resell the room to refund it bacl it us but they never did. The resort being remotely managed means the onsite staff cantaoe aby decisions.

Lovely stay, lovely staff and great food. The hotel is away from the main Tangalle town, but we enjoyed that. rooms are roomy and nicely designed and furnished. Food was great and our overall experience was that we will be back!

Modern hotel with nice decor, the sea view room was more of a ‘partial sea view’ as the room was on the ground floor behind a big green hedge. Not worth the price I paid. The ocean is too rough to swim in but the pool is nice. The Srilankan breakfast is good but the lunch and dinner options could definitely be improved. Overall I think it’s overpriced for what it is.

Loved architecture, design, build, quality of build and products. Location on the beach is wonderful. Really beautiful. Manager and Receptionist speak great English and do wish to be helpful. Juices are really superb. Middle of nowhere down multiple dirt tracks, 30 minutes from Tangalle, food is in my opinion dreadful and I preferred not to eat and drink a juice. Heavily loaded with salt and cook has no idea how to cook basic western food. Multiple electricity issues with no aircon, WiFi or electricity in my room over days. I was DOWNGRADED from whst I had paid despite manager saying he would find same class room - he gave them all to new customers arriving that day. Room I was allocated was dirty with footprints, toothpaste splash all around top that sink sits on, sun lotion splash all over patio area. Couldn’t wait to leave

From the moment we came we felt so welcomed, the staff here like a small family. The rooms are amazing. The place is a bit isolated but don’t worry you have here everything, the food in the restaurant is absolutely wow. If you want a place to relax and enjoy a few days this is the perfect place, I am fully recommend.
