מומלץ מאוד
Pros:

אהבנו הכל במקום! החדרים מאוד נוחים, מיטות טובות, מזגן מקפיא, מיקום אחלה ובעיקר מאוד מטופח ויפה.

Cons:

לא ידענו שיש מטבח משותף! היה לנו חסר מקרר למים ורק ביום האחרון גילינו אז התבאסנו אבל אם היינו יודעים המקום היה מקבל 10

Cosy room, perfect location
Pros:

Location is perfect, it’s just 5min walk from the Baby Surf spot, Main point is 7min walk from the hotel.

Room was clean and air-conditioned. We really enjoyed the terrasse from which we could enjoy the garden.

We also stayed extra two nights and the host arranged it with no issue.

Cons:

There’s no breakfast served at the hotel but there’s a small kitchen outside. It is quite well equipped but unfortunately some guests do not clean after themselves

Great location and host. Basic amenities
Pros:

The place is just 5 minutes walking from the beach. Tharanga is a really good manager and will help you with almost anything you need (Kumana Safari, tuk tuk drives, etc). He lives there with his lovely and kind family. The A/C works really good and the room was quite big with 2 floors. It has a hose in the room entrance which is very practical.

Cons:

Although not a problem for me (maybe a bit for my gf) there was no hot water in the shower. Amenities a bit basic. Sometimes there are some power outages.
