Pros:

Unglaublich schöne Anlage und perfekt zum relaxen. Da es nur 10 Zimmer gibt, ist die Ruhe sehr angenehm. Das Zimmer war sehr groß und die Betten waren sehr bequem. Der Pool mit Blick auf den Garten und den unmittelbaren strandzugang ist wie im Bilderbuch. Der sandstrand ist umwerfend und man glaubt, dass man im Paradies ist. Keine Menschen und einfach nur schön. Wir waren t Nächte und haben uns richtig gut erholt.

Boutique-Kleinod direkt am Meer
Pros:

Die Lage direkt am Meer, wunderschöner, ganz leerer Strand. Sehr kinderfreundlich und aufmerksam Familien gegenüber. Wünsche wurden schnell erfüllt, überhaupt sehr guter Service, und die Zimmer sind sehr schön und sauber. Das Essen im Restaurant ist sehr gut (aber hat einen stolzen Preis), das Sri Lankischen Frühstück eines der besten unserer gesamten Reise - unbedingt vorbestellen.

Pros:

R Degrees was the perfect final stop for our honeymoon. After spending the first three quarters of our trip exploring the south and south-east of Sri Lanka, we wanted to stay in Ambalangoda , closer to Colombo Airport, to slow down, relax, and simply enjoy the sun, sea, and beautiful coastal scenery — and R Degrees delivered exactly that.

The accommodation and facilities were immaculate, spacious, and spotlessly clean. Our suite was incredible, with a beautiful balcony overlooking the pool, a lawn lined with palm trees, and the Indian Ocean beyond — the view was truly stunning and something we’ll never forget.

The staff were exceptionally attentive, and nothing was ever too much trouble. They would often walk down onto the lawn to take drink orders, or if you headed toward the main hotel, you were more often than not greeted before even reaching the bar. The service felt effortless and genuinely warm.

The beach itself was gorgeous, and there were one or two small beach bars nearby if you fancied a change of scenery for sunset drinks.

Overall, R Degrees was a wonderful place to unwind and end our Sri Lanka adventure on the perfect note.

Pros:

Расположение хорошие на пляже.Живописный пляж.В целом хороший отель со сврей небольшой территорией,где можно поплавать в бассейне и позагорать.Океан времега купабелен,если пройти правее или левее от пляжа.Завтраки обычные.Питались в основном в кафе ,если пройти от отеля правее метров 500 на север,очень вкусная еда,в отеле не ужинали.В номерах есть вме необходимое,тапочки имеютчя тоже.Персонал очень хороший,поздравил с Рождеством,подарил пирог.

Cons:

Снимаю балл за то,что есть те,кто проживает в отеле и купаются в бассейне в одежде и причем в грязной одежде,после чего в бассейне не поплавать уже.Также ,если ты лежишь на территории отеля ближе к пляжу,то туда подходят местные бич бои и нарушают твое личное пространство,хотелось бы,чтоб у теля была охрана,котопая не допускала этого на территории отеля.

A truly relaxing and memorable stay, marked by warm hospitality, excellent service, and beautiful surroundings.
Pros:

We spent a few days at R Degrees and had a lovely time over Christmas with family. We received a warm welcome, the rooms were spacious and very clean, and the food was delicious. The pool is lovely and overlooks the ocean, making it a perfect place to relax.

The hotel also has a spa, where Mrs. Tharanga truly helps you unwind with her wonderful Ayurvedic massages.

A big thank you to Mr. Sachin, the Manager, and his entire team for their excellent service and constant attention, as well as to the Chef de Cuisine. A special thank you to Devinda, who took great care of us at the restaurant.

We will definitely be back soon.

Schönes Boutique-Hotel für Ruhesuchende
Pros:

Die Lage direkt an einem der schönsten Strände ist unschlagbar. Es sind nur wenige Leute am Strand, gute Schwimmer können sich bei gelber Flagge zum Baden reintrauen, Kinder eher nicht. Klettert man links über die Felsen, sind einige Lokale dort am Nachbarstrand direkt im Sand. Ganz tolles und reichhaltiges Sri Lankisches Frühstück - aber man muss es vorbestellen. Unbedingt ein Zimmer mit Meerblick nehmen! Überall hört man das Meeresrauschen, der Pool ist richtig toll und man kann sich Essen und Getränke dorthin bestellen. Auch das Personal war unglaublich freundlich und hat sich genau gemerkt, was wir mögen (beispielsweise habe ich einmal nach einer frischen Kokosnuss gefragt, die sie nicht hatten, zwei Tage später wurde sie uns als Überraschung gebracht.) Auch wurde und bei kleineren Anfragen immer sofort geholfen, und unser Kind wurde sehr freundlich behandelt.

Cons:

Leider hat die Zimmerreinigung nicht so genau geklappt. Wir waren recht viel auf dem Zimmer, daher hatte das Team es schwer mit uns. Aber wir haben immer Bescheid gesagt, wenn wir einige Stunden weg gegangen sind, dennoch hat es selten in unserer Abwesenheit geklappt. Auch mussten wir immer um genügend Handtücher bitten, da uns jeden Tag zu wenig gegeben wurde . Ein Mückennetz hätte ich mir über dem Bett gewünscht - aber danach gefragt haben wir nicht, also dürfen wir uns nicht beschweren. Die Preise im Restaurant sind wirklich sehr hoch (essen aber gut!).
