Pros:

Just highly recommended! You will definitely enjoy it there! It was such an amazing stay in this super cosy stay in a beautiful villa with a huge terrace. Their staff is so lovely, welcoming and ready to assist you any time with everything! They are doing amazing with everything: rooms, swimming pool, service, food, atmosphere, completely love it! You will be happy if you are a couple or friends or come with kids! Also close to 2 the famous beaches in the area! All the people who are working there are just amazing, friendly and helpful! I will definitely come back there again with my family because it's just super good! Better than all hotels around the area but still have a very good budget friendly price! Thank you so much for welcoming my family in your place! Thank you for all your service!

Cons:

You will truly enjoy your stay there!
Guys you are the best from all places we stay in your beautiful country!

Pros:

Stort lyst værelse, dejlig balkon. Fin modtagelse af søskendeparret der ejer og driver stedet. Morgenmaden havde forskellige temaer, og havde man specielle ønsker, blev de imødekommet med et smil. Et rigtigt godt arbejdsteam, der klarede ønsker med et smil. Blev spurgt flere gange, om der var noget vi mangler, de var meget opmærksomme.

Cons:

Der var ikke noget, som jeg ikke kunne vide. Man skal selv bede om rengøring, det skal man lige være klar over. Så snart man spurgte blev det gjort.

Excellent séjour au Kaminrich Cottage !
Pros:

Nous avons passé une semaine en famille en août au Kaminrich Cottage. Tout était parfait !
L'hôtel est idéalement placé à Polhena pour découvrir le sud du Sri Lanka.
Un grand merci au personnel pour leur accueil : gérant, la réceptionniste, le jardinier, les équipes à la cuisine et au ménage.
Au plaisir de vous revoir ! :)

Some time ago it was a nice hotel
Pros:

Some time ago it was probably a very nice hotel and still could be much more better with a small amount of effort. But at this moment a lot of small things what makes various inconveniences. Such as: WC doors closes just with big preasure (for wife and kids imposible), broken chair on terrace, leaking toilet while flushing water, quite dirty, chairs, table and other surfaces quite sticky, feeling like dirty event in breakfast area, under bed tons of dust, very noisy AC, breakfast very very casual and very average taste and etc.

Location is quite good - near the ocean. If looking for something cheaper and can easily tolerate small inconveniences - it is ok. Big advantage pool and quite nice garden, just in evening mosquitos.

thank you for a wonderful 2 weeks. next time we visit Sri Lanka we will definitely stay at the same place. we didn't
Pros:

The location of the hotel is great. Close to a nice beach and yet a very quiet place. The hotel owners were very nice, they checked every morning to see if we had everything and if we needed anything. The hotel staff were also very nice.

Cons:

smaller toilet seat than it should be.
