    Polite staff and curry delight

    The staff were friendly, especially in the restaurant. The breakfast buffet offered a good choice, including spicy crab curry that was nice.

    The air conditioning was noisy and the drainage in the bathroom was problematic, made for an uncomfortable experience .

    Location : the hotel was just next door to a "exhibition "which is a common tactic by tuk-tuk drivers here, and restaurants and malls easily accessible. The beds where very comfy, the room was trendy with an exceptional view.

    The breakfast was a treat, with options ranging from Sri Lankan to Western. Mahendran and the team were super helpful with our transport and any issues we had. The atmosphere is inviting, and the staff genuinely care about your comfort. Would definitely recommend!

    amazing view
    spacious room
    poor drainage

    Ocean view from the balcony offers a amazing sight. The spacious Beautiful Triple Room provided ample comfort for a family stay.

    Laundry charges for longer stays feel steep, lacking flexibility for visitors. The shower drainage had notable issues, causing water accumulation on two occasions , and the room cleaning could be more thorough, with stains present.

    noisy air conditioning
    bathroom drainage

    Excellent service from staff made dining a highlight. The location offered a pleasant beach view, though a new building partially blocked some of it. Housekeeping was commendable, keeping rooms clean and well-maintained. Drainage issues in the bathroom diminished comfort . The noisy air conditioning and fan required us to switch them off at night. Despite these inconveniences, the overall friendly vibe and attentive staff provided a nice experience.

    spacious room
    crab curry
    slow wifi

    Had a fantastic time enjoying the spacious sea-facing room and the mouth-watering crab curry that was the highlight of our meals. The outdoor swimming pool and sun terrace were perfect for relaxing after a long day. A minor downside was that the WiFi was a bit slow at times, but it didn't spoil our experience! 😊

    drainage issues
    limited parking space

    The room offered a lovely ambiance with large windows that brought in natural light. Although there were some issues with noisy air conditioning and a couple of drainage problems in the bathroom, the overall cleanliness was excellent. Breakfast stood out, with delicious cereals and spicy crab curry.

    great for families
    laundry charges

    We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, especially the really good breakfast that catered to both Sri Lankan and Western tastes.

    For dads, it would be great if they could consider revising laundry charges for longer stays.
