Warmth of Buddha
Pros:

The hospitality. Support and warmth. And geniune kindness. Salla is an honest. A warm host who is driven to ensure you have had a good vacation. His smile, demeanor and service first approach is striking. His memory impeccable. It was my birthday and he ensured to arrange a sumptuous birthday dinner which was off menue and also helped my mum pick some mangos to bring back home.

Cons:

Speed of service can be improved

Pros:

We really liked the chilled vibe of this hotel! And a sweet little kitten that greeted us with lots of meows every time we came back to our room and curled up on our laps! The staff were very nice and helpful.

We loved our stay and wished we could have stayed longer .
Pros:

Everything. The staff, especially Sellie were so friendly and obliging. The pool and plantings were beautiful. The room was large and overlooked the pool with a comfortable bed and large bathroom. It was an easy walk to Lions Rock. Transport was easy to arrange with the staff. The food was good. They managed to cook us a dinner when the whole of Sri Lanka had a long power cut. There are also other restaurants nearby if you would like a change.

Cons:

We wished they could make a milkshake or smoothie as it was on the menu but when asked, they said not available. A very very minor thing.

Absolute perfection!
Pros:

This hotel was truly amazing! The rooms are big and a big bathroom, the bed was super comfortable and everything was clean. The pool was delightful and they cleaned it every morning. The staff were so helpful and friendly and made us feel so welcomed from the very start. One of the best things about this hotel was the restaurant, the food was amazing. We have a Sri Lankan breakfast that was so delicious and we ate there for dinner also on one of the nights and I got grilled tuna and it’s was so good!! We also had cocktails there and they were very well made. We loved our stay there and were sad to leave!

Cons:

There is nothing I didn’t like about the property, everything was amazing!

Pros:

Os funcionários são super prestáveis e ajudaram- nos sempre que precisávamos - a marcar transfers, tuktuks e tours. O hotel em si é giro

Cons:

Não havia água quente, havia uma barata quando chegámos ao quarto e é difícil dormir pelo barulho (macacos em cima e ouve-se tudo dos quartos ao lado)

If I could, I would give this place more than 10/10!
Pros:

The hotel itself was wonderful. The rooms were very clean, the bed was comfortable, and the air conditioning worked perfectly. The swimming pool was beautiful, huge and spotlessly clean. The staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming and helpful. We also loved the animals around the property, especially the sweetest cat who kept coming over for cuddles! The location is great too, with plenty of interesting places and attractions nearby.

The hotel restaurant was another highlight. The food was absolutely delicious, with very reasonable prices and great value for money. We really enjoyed eating there during our stay.

Cons:

Honestly, nothing! We had no complaints and really enjoyed every part of our stay. The only thing was the monkeys making some noise early in the morning, but of course that’s completely beyond the hotel’s control.
