Not recommend. Additional "Comission" charged and very unfriendly.
Cons:

Not recommend! Owner charged at the end a "Comission" of 6,20$ in top of the price that was shown in my Booking.com bill. He showed a bill off booking.com with a comission that he most likely has to pay to booking.com and insisted that we have to pay it. The hotel is run by one old and one younger man (Most likely father and son). The older man is very unfriendly, rude and his English very hard to understand. The younger one is more friendly and speaks better english.
Breakfest was medium and the one Water bottle we got was charged.

Kindest people in Sri Lanka
Pros:

The rooms were clean and confortable. The staff was really nice and kind . The perfect hotel if you want a quite place to stay near arugam bay at a great price with a delicious breakfast. Thank you for all.

Cons:

Nothing. The position is a little bit outside the main Town so It would be probably better if you have your own trasport like a scooter or a tuk tuk. Anyway there are restaurants in the near resorts and the beach is 200 meters away.

Feels like not worth the money spent
Pros:

The beach was close by

Cons:

The hotel is far away from the city and main road, if you don't have your own vehicle getting around is not easy.
There are no restaurants close by and no restaurant in the hotel, you have to travel 10km to get anything.
The food offered, which was bought from outside lacked cleanliness
The hotel offered Kumana safari for 23K LKR, while the actual price was 15K LKR

Nice and calm place near to the beach

Nice and calm place near the beach. The environment is clean and good breakfast.

Superb
Pros:

We really enjoyed the little bit more remote location with peace and quiet right next to the beach but still restaurants in a walking distance. Delicious breakfast with juice and 1 or 2 fruits and great coffee too! There isn't an AC in the room, but there is a fan which works like a charm.

Cons:

The apartments are open near the roof so insects have a few points for entry, so there was just a few insects at night time in the washroom, but if you don't mind them, then no problem.

We saw a few hairs in the bed, so I'm not sure if the linens had been washed after the previous visitors.

A good place to relax but not a familiar place
Pros:

The place is very silent and perfect to rest and enjoy the nature of the place. The bungalows are comfortable

Cons:

The staff is not in harmony with place, cold people with problems to speak and understand our questions in English. Too busy in thinking about payments and money instead of pleasing our stay. Breakfast very poor and not able to satisfy small requests on the menu.

An Oasis far away from Touristic Centers
Pros:

The location is beautiful! There is a nice terrace where we enjoyed the breakfast but you could also sit there anytime you want. It is only a 100 m walk to a lovely beach which we found deserted! It was a great stay to take a break from the similarly lovely but much more crowded Arugam Bay.
The rooms were nice and clean, the breakfast was simple but good.

Cons:

In the whole area around the Whisky Bay, there are only a few restaurants and one shop, which is not a big problem when you want to have some relaxing time far away from tourists (and you could buy water at the hotel).

Good but room for improvement
Pros:

The garden is beautiful and so are the houses. The locations is great, very close to whiskey point.

Cons:

Before you read this keep in mind that we booked on the same day during a period when there was almost no tourism.

The accommodation was not nice at this moment. We think this is probably due to the decrease in tourism. We arrived and they did not know that we were coming. They cleaned the houses except for the bathrooms. The bathrooms where quite dirty. Also we did not get blankets. We contacted the host about this but he did not respond at all. We don’t know how the accommodation normally is but at this moment, the money was not worth the stay.

We do want to thank the man who tried to make the best out of our stay, he did that very well and we are grateful for that. We would definitely book again but then let the hosts know ahead of time. We see the potential of the beautiful location and accommodation.
