I don't understand why this hotel has so many good reviews. Very very very bad experience. First we came to the hotel. The price was already different due to the exchange rate and the app. When we entered the room, we found stains on the pillows and bath towels. The bath water is very small and not hot enough to wash your hair. For a hotel in this price range (195usd), the entire bed sheet cannot be fixed.
The only thing I think is excellent is the spa, but it charges 50usd, which is ridiculously expensive in Sri Lanka.

My family and I truly felt so much peace and relaxation while staying at this beautiful property! From the moment we arrived until the time we checked out, each of the staff were nothing but helpful and very hospitable to us, and made us feel right at home! We loved the beautiful pools, meals and extremely comfortable rooms - not to mention the gorgeous views and proximity to the beach, convenience store and train station. We would absolutely love to return to this amazing place!

We booked this hotel for a few nights before leaving the UK. We planned to travel south after our stay. As soon as we arrived we knew we wanted to stay for our whole holiday (11 nights). The hotel is beautiful. Attention to detail 1st class. Spotlessly clean. Amazing fixtures and fittings. All the staff are very friendly and can’t do enough for you. Every member of staff helped us to experience the real Sri Lanka. Manesh (owner) was there at 6am to let me out to go fishing with Tiny most mornings. I fished with the locals off the rocks a few minutes from hotel. Sunrise was a true experience. The food in the restaurant is outstanding. They have a very talented young chef. We ate here most nights. Hoppers for breakfast or a selection of homemade curry certainly gets you off to a good start. Whole king coconut served chilled every morning. Wow. We stayed in the Princess room and were lucky enough to watch a troop of monkeys playing in the yard most evenings. They have the best Tuktuk driver. Ronaldo will take you anywhere, wait while you have dinner or a swim. He took us to Yala for the day and set us up with an amazing guide to tour the safari park. Thoroughly recommend this gentleman. He really made our holiday. Take him shopping with you to make sure you pay the correct price. Thank you Kushan. We will see you in March 2025 when we will return for another two weeks.

A wonderful stay, for us a couple who needed a silent and comfortable prolonged weekend, after weeks of hard work. We were treated like the king and his queen, with genuine kindness and respect. We are looking forward to come back. It is great to know that we have found our "getaway" place on the coast. Thank you for an amazing stay.

Spent a couple of nights here as a small getaway from the city. Very comfortable and spacious room. Staff were attentive and the meals I ordered a la carte were very good. The beach is about a 1-2 km walk away. There is an indoor pool, which was a new experience for me. An outdoor pool is under construction.

We recently stayed at this lovely hotel, and while it's a bit farther from the beach and town, we still had a great experience. The beach is about a 10-minute walk away, and getting to Bentota town is easy with a 20-minute tuk-tuk ride. The highlight of this place is that it feels like staying in a beautiful, modern mansion. Everything is super new, and the facilities are in excellent condition. The staff is also incredibly welcoming and attentive, which made our stay even better. If you're looking for a peaceful and well-maintained place to relax, this is a great option!

The place is well maintained. Modern and clean. Worth the money. Hands on staff. It’s in between Bentota and Hikkaduwa. The accomodation offers transport to anywhere you need. The driver is very helpful and friendly! Place is well worth the money.

This hotel/resort/villa is one of the best value for money. Host is amazing and very friendly. Room/furnishings/toileteries are great. Food served is made with full love and care. We would highly recommend staying here. The location is little remote from Beach but spacious rooms and other services makes it up. Keep up good work and consider putting TV's in each room for even better exp.
