Karpaha Sands is an absolutely wonderful boutique hotel that delivers on so many levels. The safari-style tents with outdoor shower create a very stylish and romantic ambience, the restaurant and bar offer lots of choice and consistently high quality food and drink. The location, off the beaten track, is stunning and relaxing. The public spaces are beautifully designed with attention to detail, I could go on and on. Umberto, the general manager strives to deliver a very personalised service and talks to guests on a daily basis. He even offered our 9-year-old to accompany him into the kitchen and help cook his pasta! Both the Sri Lankan and Italian dishes offered in the restaurant were delicious and fairly prices, as were the drinks. We booked half-board and were very pleased that we weren't limited to a small separate menu but could choose freely off the normal menu, which had lots of options and huge portion sizes. Ash, our butler looked after us extremely well. When he saw us up for sunrise on the beach he offered to bring us a cappuccino. He surprised us with a wedding anniversary cake and when after our meal, we returned to our room we find our bed decorated with towel art and flowers. He arranged our beach bbq dinner and acted as our personal server during the evening, even taking photos and videos for us! He also organised our cinema under the stars and brought us popcorn, it was a wonderful way to while away the evening. Karpaha Sands is the kind of place that truly relaxes you and lets you forget all your stresses and strains. Sadly I didn't get round to trying the ayurvedic spa treatments, which looks very inviting and again were very fairly prices. All in all we were very sad to leave and would have happily stayed longer. We would throughougly recommend staying here if you're visiting this part of Sri Lanka.
