Beautiful place to stay in but with issues
Pros:

It was a very beautiful place to be in .

Cons:

The staff was ok , but their knowledge of English wasn't . Furthermore : the restaurant was closed and after dark it wasn't recommended to go outside the premises because of the wild elephants wandering around . So no food the first night . No beer or alcohol at the bar (perfect location next to the pool) .

Pros:

Cet établissement familial est bien placé tant pour les visites en journée que pour profiter des restos le soir.
Le jardin est joli, calme et la piscine est superbe! Un des fils de la famille vous fera découvrir les points d’intérêts de la région.

Cons:

La musique au bord de la piscine pourrait être moins forte.

Nice room with private plunge pool
Pros:

Liked the room with private plunge pool. Was nice to come back to after a long day spent exploring.
Monkeys in he trees.

Cons:

It’s a little bit in the middle of nowhere. No restaurant for food in the evening. Limited options for walking to get food nearby.
Not a lot of space around the main pool, sun beds quickly grabbed by people reserving with towels.
First impression on arrival wasn’t great as front looked like building site. However once inside it was OK and we weren’t disturbed by construction noise.

Pros:

The resort has a lot of potential.

Cons:

Wouldn’t recommend for solo travellers, resort is out the way and doesn’t have a restaurant. Need Uber / PickMe to get between places. Loud bangs through out the night when the elephant deterrents go off.

Pros:

Alocated off the main road, too far to walk for restaurants and main town. Ut they will give you a ride i to town. Pool is peaceful and clean.

Cons:

Construction going on in front so it looks a bit unwelcoming at first. Just need to get to the back of the property

Pros:

The property was nestled in nature with a lovely pool and great distance for hiking to view Sigiriya rock. Lovely breakfast and friendly staff. Hotel Tuk Tuk was also useful to get into town.

Cons:

There isn’t too much in walking distance but this wasn’t really a problem due to the Tuk Tuk.
