Pros:

Some hotels simply give you a place to sleep, but this one gave us a place to truly slow down and enjoy every moment. My girlfriend and I were looking for a peaceful escape, and this hotel exceeded every expectation.

The atmosphere is incredibly calm and relaxing. Surrounded by beauty and silence, it felt like time moved a little slower here. Every corner of the hotel is thoughtfully designed, creating a sense of comfort .

Our room was spotless, elegant, and incredibly comfortable. We slept better than we had in a long time.
What made this place truly special was the hospitality.

Leaving was the hardest part. If you're looking for a quiet, beautiful place where you can completely disconnect from the world and simply enjoy being together, this hotel is the perfect choice. We would return in a heartbeat.

Pros:

An amazing place! We traveled around Sri Lanka and stayed here for just one night, and our only regret was not staying longer. I highly recommend everyone spend a few more days here. The staff are fantastic, the rooms are spotless, the food is excellent, and the pool is incredibly clean. We absolutely loved our stay and would happily come back again!

Pros:

Всё красиво! Всё очень вкусно 🤤 отдельная благодарность повару. Красиво, уютно, приятно. Рады были практиковать йогу на руфтопе с видом на джунгли и просыпаться по звуки природы. Расположение отеля очень удобное!

Cons:

Не очень понравилось курение людей в зоне для приема пищи

Pros:

Все очень понравилось, номер светлый и чистый. Понравилось большое зеркало, идеально для красивых селфи, хах.
Вежливый персонал, мне шли навстречу с любыми просьбами - и тарелку дать, и ключ от соли очистить, что угодно.
Также есть возможность заказать трансфер из/до аэропорта.
Также очень понравилась территория отеля, ухоженная и приятная, милые домики, тропинки, цветущее дерево, бар с кофе и прочими напитками, небольшое, но очень вкусное меню.
Красивый и чистый бассейн, с удовольствием в нем поплавала. Отель небольшой, так что очень велик шанс поплавать в нем в полном одиночестве с утра, кайф.
Также ходила на йогу, она проводится по понедельникам и средам на площадке в отеле, тоже очень здорово! Русскоязычная тренер по йоге провела чудесное занятие.
В отеле много русскоязычных в целом, это плюс, если нужна помощь по каким-либо вопросам.
В пешей близости от отеля прекрасный пляж Kabalana beach, длинный и широкий. Можно и поплавать с удовольствием, и для серфинга для начинающих отлично подходит. B пешей близости есть еще несколько вкусных кафешек.

Cons:

Нюанс для тех, кто не водит байк - отель расположен чуть поодаль от аптек, магазинов, пунктов обмена денег и тд. Чтобы добраться до этих мест, нужно брать туктук, поездка займет минут 4-5. Пешком не доберешься, главная улица Ахангамы совсем не предназначена для прогулок пешком.
Вода в номере чаще лилась из крана не горячая, а еле теплая. Это не так критично, это в целом специфика острова.

Pros:

Уютный красивый отель, расположен вдали от шума дороги, до пляжа Кабалана 10 минут пешком. Номера чистые и просторные, классная зона с бассейном в окружении пальм. Персонал внимательный, уборка раз в 2-3 дня или по запросу. Останавливались на неделю, 100% реко в этом районе Шри-Ланки.
