Nem kellemes pihenésre megszállni.
Pros:

A személyzet nagyon kedves volt!

Cons:

A szállás nagyon rossz állapotú, főleg a fürdőszoba, leszakadt polcok, penészes minden.
Nem volt egy napig áram igy wifi sem, ami elég sok plusz költséget tud okozni.

Cabane dans les arbres très sympa, avec vue jardin et piscine. Le petit déjeuner est excellent et copieux. Piscine agréable après les assencions des 2 rochers. Emplacement tranquille à 10 min en tuktuk du centre.

Cons:

La piscine est trouble et un peu trop traité chimiquement.

Casa árbol
Pros:

Muy hospitalarios, es verdad que no paramos mucho en el hospedaje. Pero el ambiente es familiar y te ofrecen su ayuda en todo momento.
Contratamos un safari con ellos y nos ofrecieron la posibilidad de hacer un curso de cocina y masajes. Nos quedamos con pena de poder probarlos.
Los desayunos son tradicionales y copiosos.

Cons:

Las instalaciones eran mejorables. El aire acondicionado goteaba ( punto a favor, intentaron arreglarlo)

Pros:

Nice pool, great breakfast, delicious food. Staff is overall very kind, will prepare a meal for you anytime you want.

Cons:

Terrible bathroom, there was sand falling from our ceiling. We also had a bad experience with the tuk tuk our host got for us (i don't know where they get this guy). The price of tuk tuk at the end was much much higher then agreed with our host, and he also took us to places we did not agreed to, also to a "free" spice garden where we got scamed to buy fake products for a lot of money, pretty bad experience for our first stay in SriLanka.

Cute treehouse but a lot needs improving here
Pros:

Cute treehouse type cabin, stunning jungle views from the balcony area. Pool was an added bonus after a hot day. Breakfast was good. There was a hairdryer in the bathroom which I wasn't expecting. Aircon and a fan, both worked well.

Cons:

Room was so small. No where to put our bags, had to opt for the floor. Could not unpack, not even a shelf, there were a few hooks to hang towels etc but not adequate. Kettle provided on a very low table in the corner, but no plug anywhere near. The only plug in the room was behind the bed, luckily I had an extra long phone lead - charging with a normal length one would have been an issue. It was not safe to move the kettle to behind the bed and to the floor to use - so we didnt use the kettle. The wooden banister upto the room was broken and loose and dangerous and a couple of the steps were wobbly. The lock to the cabin was faulty, we locked it the first time, went to the pool - came back and the door was open. It had locked but not clicked into place, meaning it was locked open. Poorly fitted lock. Lock to bathroom also did not lock on every occasion, it was best to keep this locked from the outside as we found frogs, cockroach etc in there - but its the jungle so this is normal, but just wanted to lock the door on every occasion to prevent them coming into the bedroom. Staff spoke barely any English, when we were leaving i needed to pay and even trying to sort this was difficult. Ordering food became complicated due to language barrier. By the pool - drain was left open, for no particular reason, quite dangerous. Im not normally one to leave negative comments but a lot needed to be improved here!
