It was a lovely stay in a quiet setting in the jungle but close enough. Views over the ocean are gorgeous.
Pros:

Beautiful views.

Cons:

A little out of the way but there’s a complimentary tuk tuk to local beaches.

Rides on it's view
Pros:

Beautiful view and lovely infinity pool.

Cons:

Out of the 6 hotels we stayed at, this hotel lacked the customer service the others had. Staff weren't rude but they weren't overly friendly or attentive either. Hot water in the shower would come and go which was frustrating. The hotel is also very isolated on the hill. There's no walking to anything else.

Worth the price
Pros:

The staff were warm, welcoming and helped us with all requirements The breakfast and dinner were very good and worth the price. The room was comfortable and had a lot of amenities. The view from the balcony was fantastic despite the weather that weekend.

Cons:

There were some bird droppings in the pool but to be fair we should have looked before we got in during the evening. Even though they looked aesthetic, the soap/ shampoo bottles were a bit of a hassle. They could be more practical with those.

Ik zou er niet meer heen gaan!
Pros:

Dat weet ik eigenlijk niet

Cons:

Het zwembad was heel erg vies! Het restaurant was
niet geweldig, keuze was niet super.
De ligging van het hotel vond ik net iets te ver van de “bewoonde” wereld.

Pros:

An absolutely fantastic view and experience! Especially the ocean view rooms.

Having the balcony made the experience even better. Food was excellent.

Cons:

Nothing to dislike, but note that the hotel is right next to the ocean, but on a kind of cliff. No direct access to the beach.

Can only use the public beach about 1.5 km away. Recommend going to Unawatuna beach instead, that's amazing.

Very very disappointed, dirty, way to expensive and very bad breakfast
Pros:

The view was nice. That’s the only thing….

Cons:

We are a family of 4 (kids 8 and 11) travelling around Maleisia and Sri Lanka for 6 weeks. An amazing trip with very nice places, friendly people and beautiful hotels.

Unfortunately Agnus was a big dissapointment :-(

Because we really liked the Booking.com pictures, we booked this hotel for 1 night and we asked if there was room for a few more nights in advance. But first we wanted to see the hotel so we decided to book 1 night, because the price was high.

When we arrived, we inmediately saw that we were not going to stay longer then 1 night. The pictures in booking.com are totally not realistic. The building looks old, a lot of maintainance is needed. The pictures show the real situation.

Besides that the staff is talking and cleaning very loud, what made they woke me up at 6.30 in the morning. The building is very noisy.

But what was the most dissapointing was the breakfast (see pictures). The menu says: homemade muesli. Well, this is for sure not home made… And the beans, the dry crackers, the cheese… We could not believe our eyes.

This is the first time this holiday we had complains. We normally never review hotels but we felt like doing this now because this is needed to be told. And the price: around 240 euro’s for 1 night (2 rooms). Way to expensive for Sri Lanka.

Unfortunately the manager of the hotel did not compensate us. He was sorry for the noise and for waking us up that early. But he thought the building was normal and the breakfast was good… He was even kind of angry with me because I complained…

When we checked out, the manager walked to our self arranged taxi driver to ask him where we were going. Strange…

Well, we booked a few nights at Oura Spirit, only 5 minutes away. Our first impression: wow!! Their images are real and I highly recommand this hotel. And by the way: way cheaper!!

Conclusion: please avoid this hotel (Agnus). Yes; the view is nice but that is really the only thing that was nice. Not worth 120-200 euro’s per night.
