Cons:

Thank you for the overall good service during our visit. Everything was fine and we appreciated the experience. However, we felt a bit uncomfortable when one of the staff members was scolding their team in front of guests. We completely understand that managing staff can be challenging, but we kindly suggest handling such situations privately to maintain a pleasant atmosphere for customers.

Beautiful relaxing setting and super helpful staff. Perfect end to our Sri Lankan adventure
Pros:

The location was fabulous. We upgraded to deluxe room and the view was breathtaking. Staff were all amazing, nothing was too much trouble - they just wanted us to be happy. Breakfast was fabulous, we didn’t eat other meals in hotel apart from a beach Buffet which was excellent - very romantic.

Cons:

In our first room (superior) the air conditioning was so loud we couldn’t hear the sea - the waves crashing was really loud. We were immediately offered an alternative room but having spoken to another couple we decided to upgrade. That was a great choice!

Hotellet leverte ikke det man forventer av et 4-stjerners hotell, og opplevdes mer som et 3-stjerners sted.
Pros:

Utsikten over havet var helt nydelig, og muligheten til å se solnedgangen derfra var virkelig et høydepunkt. Beliggenheten var også veldig bra – kort vei til stranden, og det var gøy med både aktiviteter og treningsrom tilgjengelig.

Vi benyttet oss av spa-avdelingen, som var helt fantastisk. Dyktige og profesjonelle terapeuter som virkelig kunne massasje, noe som gjorde opplevelsen ekstra avslappende.

Personalet var gjennomgående hyggelige, høflige og serviceinnstilte – spesielt når det gjaldt å ta hensyn til allergiene våre. Vi er glutenallergikere og allergiske mot sjømat, og de var veldig flinke til å tilpasse både mat og oppfølging etter dette.

Frokosten var også veldig god, med godt utvalg og fine smaker.

Cons:

Oppholdet levde dessverre ikke opp til forventningene. Rommet hadde flere utfordringer som påvirket komforten betydelig. Aircondition-anlegget var ekstremt bråkete, og dersom det ble skrudd av, ble rommet raskt fuktig og ubehagelig. Sengen var også veldig hard, noe som gjorde det vanskelig å få en god natts søvn.

I tillegg var det mye støy fra omgivelsene – både trafikk og tog som passerte var godt hørbart. Selv om lyden fra AC-en overdøvet noe av dette, var den så høy i seg selv at vi måtte sove med noise cancelling. Det hjalp litt, men støyen var fortsatt merkbar.

Badet var helt greit, men levde på ingen måte opp til bildene som var vist på forhånd. Generelt opplevde vi standarden som betydelig lavere enn det stedet gir inntrykk av å være.

Maten var også skuffende – spesielt kjøttet, som ofte var tørt enten det var kylling eller biff.

Pros:

The staff is amazing and helpful.
Great beach, pool and bar.
Would recommend and we will come back.

Cons:

The rooms were a bit musty. Maybe some of the accommodation needs an upgrade (some paint will go a long way). But nothing really to complain.

Pros:

Location, staff, behaviours and break fast

Cons:

Toiletries quality was not good, especially the soap. They could provide hand wash instead. Also there were lots of small ant on the wooden pannel of the room. Also the AC controller was not working.

Amazing place, kind and generous staff. Right next to the ocean if you want a pure relaxation stay.
Pros:

The breakfast options are always amazing, as well as British food options; you can enjoy some traditional curries and traditional Sri Lankan food options. I'd recommend either the chicken curry or the fish curry! You're located right next to the ocean with hotel beds to use, unlike others who don't own their own beds next to the beach; you can use the hotel's free of charge. There are showers next to the pool for when you come out of the sea, and if your room is on the lower levels, your room walks straight out onto the sea.

The staff are always exceptionally friendly and thoughtful, making sure you have everything you need. An overall beautiful stay.

Cons:

Nothing major at all, your perspective has to change when coming from the UK to Sri Lanka. The country has put a lot of money into raising its tourism standards, which means, unless you're staying at the higher-end hotels, you will notice smaller things like walls needing re-painting and rooms that could do with updating. But this is a small drop in a bueatiful stay.

Could be better as hotel is in a lovely location
Pros:

Clean and comfortable accommodation but let down by the quality of its food both at breakfast and dinner. Booked half board but ended up eating at The Cut the second night just down the road which was brilliant.
Needs a little TLC too.
The staff on the other hand were all so helpful.
