Bien pour une nuit avant de reprendre l’avion.
Pros:

L’esthétique du lieu, la propreté, la piscine , la proximité avec l’aéroport. La
Chambre qui donne sur la piscine.
Idéal pour la dernière nuit.

Cons:

Insonorisation inexistante. Notre baie vitrée sur la piscine ne s’ouvrait pas !
Personnel qui semble « absent ».
Rapport qualité prix loin de ce qu’on peut vivre au Sri Lanka.
Établissement très isolé.
La plage à proximité immédiate n’est pas baignable.

Ankommen und weiter
Pros:

Wir nutzten die Unterkunft für eine Nacht nach Ankunft in Colombo um am nächsten Tag weiterzuziehen. Zimmerausstattung und Grösse waren ok.

Cons:

Es wirkte als wurde alles etwas auf die Schnelle gereinigt.
Der organisierte Transport hat einwandfrei funktioniert. Im Nachhinein müssen wir jedoch sagen, dass er etwas überteuert war.

STRANDED WITH A BABY AT 2 AM! EXTREMELY DANGEROUS & HEARTLESS MANAGEMENT! DO NOT BOOK!
Pros:

No.very bad

Cons:

I am writing this to warn every single traveler especially families to STAY AWAY from this property because we had a traumatic nightmare experience that no one should ever face in their life. We booked this villa while in Dubai, preparing for our flight to Sri Lanka from Germany with our 6-month-old infant and everything was planned perfectly as we explicitly communicated our arrival time between 2:00 AM and 3:00 AM and provided our flight details well in advance, which the management confirmed repeatedly and told us to call the numbers on the door upon arrival. However, the moment we touched down in Sri Lanka we received a cold, heartless, and disgusting message from them saying "Cancel your booking because there is no one here to receive you," which left us stranded on the street in the middle of the night with a tiny baby after a long international flight. Can you believe the absolute cruelty and zero humanity of leaving a family with an infant in a vulnerable situation at 2 AM despite knowing exactly when we were coming and having our confirmation in their system? They even had the audacity to message us back saying, "It’s OK DON'T CANCEL. YOU CAN CHECK IN at that time" at 22:09, only 1 hour and 30 minutes before we were supposed to be there. Imagine the panic and mental stress this caused us with a 6-month-old infant in an unfamiliar country. After abandoning us at 2 AM they now have the audacity to send us messages asking, "Hi why didn nt u come ? Now u have to pay extra half of the money to booking. Com. and also we were so busy and stressful for organising a person at 2 in the morning." This management is completely unreliable dishonest and a total disgrace to Sri Lankan hospitality. They clearly do not care about the safety of tourists or children and they are happy to take your booking but will shut the door on your face when you actually arrive and then demand extra money.
