Pros:

We fietsen door Sri Lanka en kwamen na een lange dag behoorlijk moe aan. Personeel super vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Fietsen kregen een veilige plek. Kamer en bed tip top in orde. Locatie erg fijn, uit de drukte. Ontbijt was ook prima in orde.
Kortom een enorme aanrader!

Overall, it’s a lovely place with wonderful staff, but a few improvements would make the experience
Pros:

The setting of the hotel is truly beautiful and very peaceful.
Our room was comfortable and clean, the Wi-Fi worked very well, and the breakfast was excellent. We were a bit sick and exhausted after several days in the jungle, and we really needed a place with comfort to rest — this hotel definitely provided that.
The staff were extremely kind, helpful, and welcoming, and we also appreciated that they offered free laundry service, which was a very nice bonus.

Cons:

However, we wouldn’t return at this price point (60 USD per night), as we expected a bit more comfort in some essential aspects. The shower was cold, which was disappointing after a long day of traveling, and there was no water dispenser available to drink freely at any time.

Prachtig resort, beetje afgelegen, maar ideaal als tussenstop
Pros:

Gigantisch resort, beetje onwennig als enige gaste.
Kamer was fantastisch! Ruim, airco, goed bed, strijkplank en badkamer was ook voldoende ruim.
Zwembad ziet er top uit, maar geen ligzetels.

Cons:

Beetje afgelegen, maar ideaal als tussenstop.

Exact what I needed
Pros:

After a long day of travelling from Colombo to Monaragala i arrived late at night at the Grand Pearl Resort. The host was very nice and waited for me to let me check in (at 23:30) and also provided the help for arranging a tuktuk out of Monaragala town.

The resort was the perfect overnight stay for myself to relax and continue my travels. Good breakfast and very helpful people, comfortable rooms.

Cons:

No remarks. It was very comfortable.

Ein schöner Pool zum Entspannen.

Cons:

Ein sehr karges Frühstück, wahrscheinlich weil es vegetarisch sein sollte.

A bit disappointing for the money we paid
Pros:

Clean sheets,
hot shower,
working internet

Cons:

Food was disappointing,
no real milk with the tea or coffee, only powder
Loud noise from different parties going on, which apparently is not unusual
The bed was creaky
Electricity plug not placed well neither lights switch
There was a problem with the price. They charged me much more than my booking confirmation
