Very friendly hotel with lovely setting and good rooms with balconies. Would go back.
Pros:

Very nice hotel built round a lovelh garden and the pool. Short path to stunning beach with good cafes very near. Staff kind and helpful. Would put tables outside for dinner if requested. We were there late February, which is out of season, and the beach was very quiet.

Cons:

Dining room - small and noisy. Tables outside for breakfast would have been great.

Een aanrader!
Pros:

De kamers zijn erg netjes en schoon. Het hotel maakt een erg verzorgde indruk. Het zwembad is heerlijk. Je loopt een smal paadje uit naast het hotel. Daarmee ben je gelijk op het strand. Personeel is heel behulpzaam.

Cons:

‘s avonds kan je er lekker eten. Alleen duurde het erg lang voordat het eten kwam. Mijn vriendin en dochter hadden eten gekregen. Daarna moest ik nog 10 minuten wachten.

Déception
Pros:

Bon emplacement et piscine

Cons:

Mauvais rapport qualité prix
Nous avions voulu que cela soit notre « kiff » de voyage en augmentant le budget mais quelle déception!
Le personnel n’était pas très agréable ni sympathique (on nous demande de payer dès notre arrivée, on ne nous propose pas de porter nos sacs, on nous attribue une table partagée au petit déjeuner alors que des petits tables sont disponibles…etc)
De plus les serviettes de piscine sont déchirées ou tachées …
Les photos sont très datées
Au vu du prix nous avons été très déçus du service

Overall, we really enjoyed our stay here. The location and pool were great.
Pros:

Short walk down sandy path to beach
Large pool
Excellent buffet breakfast with friendly staff

Cons:

Room was clean and comfortable, although a little clinical
A group of locals had a party pretty much overtaking the pool area one morning, we had to move to the beach mainly due to the music far too loud. As there were so few people staying at the hotel, perhaps this was understandable.. However, my request to lower the music volume was not met and, if we had been given prior notice, we could have changed our plans for that morning. Considering this was the most expensive hotel during our tour, this was disappointing.

Beach time
Pros:

Very pleasant hotel, with quick access to the beach and within 10 mins of walking to whatever you need. Beach is that close that we didn’t even bother to use swimming pool.

Cons:

This was our last place two stay in Sri Lanka and by far the worst breakfast - we know that you can do better in Sri Lanka,

Erg teleurstellend voor wat je betaald
Pros:

Locatie naast het strand was perfect. Vriendelijk personeel.

Cons:

Kwaliteit van accommodatie is zeer laag. Kamers zijn erg verouderd en zijn armoedig ingericht. Prijs per nacht is veel te hoog voor wat je krijgt. Avondbuffet zag er slecht uit, weinig variatie. Je kunt beter naar het strand lopen en bij een van de restaurants daar eten. Ontbijt was niet bijzonder.

Pros:

Чудове місце, до пляжу 2 хв ходьби, рекомендую брати номери на другому поверсі, вид ввечері з балкону на сад—прекрасний!
Чудовий персонал, зі всім допомагає, особливо запам'ятався бармен Bandare, шикарний чувак з чудовими коктейлями. Сніданки смачні, також при потребі запаковують ланч бокси.
Прибирання номерів щодня

Troppo caro per quello che offre.
Pros:

La posizione è molto buona. A pochi metri dalla spiaggia e anche dalla via dove si trovano molti ristorantini con buon cibo a prezzi contenuti.

Cons:

L’aria condizionata era difettosa. Rimaneva accesa solo al massimo per cui era impossibile utilizzarla. Ho segnalato il problema alla reception ma non hanno fatto nulla. Hotel troppo caro per camere fatiscenti.
