Not great.
Pros:

The beach was lovely.

Cons:

They chained and padlocked the gates in the evening without warning (we were still out) we tried to get in at around 10.00pm. Rattled the gates and shouted but no answer. Had to walk a long way round to the beach and down the train track to get in via the back gate, which isn’t safe at night in my opinion. The AC unit outside of our room was incredibly noisy and I’m pretty confident they took advantage and over changed us for the laundry they arranged. The rate quoted was correct (per Kg) however they said it weighed 7kg. It definitely did not! The breakfast is ok, the beach is excellent.

A Hidden Gem Exceptional Value and Unbeatable Location
Pros:

We had the pleasure of staying at this fantastic property, and we couldn't recommend it more highly. Its ease of access from Colombo immediately makes it a stress-free start to any getaway.

The location is truly amazing. Situated just a quick five-minute walk from the back of the property, you are instantly on a gorgeous, pristine beach. This proximity alone makes the stay worthwhile for any beach lover.

What truly sets this place apart is the incredible hospitality and value. The entire team, particularly the host, was welcoming, accommodating, and extremely attentive to all our needs. The staff were consistently helpful and polite, ensuring a pleasant atmosphere throughout our visit. For everything offered, this property represents genuinely great value for money.

Finally, the food was a delightful surprise, offering a good variety of dishes that satisfied everyone in our group. If you're looking for an accessible, beautiful, and deeply welcoming place near the beach, look no further!

Cons:

Nothing to complain
