N’hésitez pas c’était génial
Pros:

Tout : c’est splendide, la vue est à couper le souffle, la nourriture est très bonne et le staff adorable (mention spéciale pour le serveur qui s’est occupé de nous à tous les repas, un grand jeune, qui a été absolument parfait et bienveillant).
Dans les autres avis, on peut voir des critiques sur le bruit des oiseaux ou les chiens errants. OUI, on est au Sri Lanka! Les standards européens sont évidemment différents, la nature est différente, on ne vient pas au Sri Lanka pour être choqué par des libellules ou des chiens errants sinon on a choisi le mauvais pays !

Cons:

Tout était parfait

The most perfect time by the beach
Pros:

We absolutely loved our stay - really comfortable room looking right out over the sea, delicious food in the restaurant and immediate access to the beach. The staff were lovely and incredibly helpful, including arranging for us to go snorkelling, setting off from right in front of the hotel, and they advised us on going to Angel Rock over Pigeon Island. We stayed for 4 nights and loved every second of it.

Cons:

Wifi wasn't great. We preordered our dinner before 5pm on the days when we ate at the restaurant having read the advice of previous reviews, this wasn't a problem at all but wasn't something that the hotel made obvious we should do.

Amazing view and staff
Pros:

The view from this hotel is amazing. We really appreciated the hospitality of the hotel staff, they literally do everything to bring convenience and comfort. We liked the snorkeling tour.

Cons:

Sunbeds near the beach were being destroyed/ by street dogs. It's a problem in whole Sri Lanka, but compared to the beautiness of the hotel, this is something that should be taken care of...

Restaurant prices are a little high, but the view and food quality is worth it. Also consider the Sara restaurant close by, less view but good food.

Pros:

Es war alles traumhaft. Wir waren als Familie 5 Nächte hier und haben alles (Zimmer mit eigenem Pool, grosser Pool, Essen, Strand, das Haus) sehr genossen. Danke für alles.

À éviter surtout pour les chambres familiales ! Et les photos qui ne représentent pas la réalité.
Pros:

L’accueil du personnel, le petit déjeuner et le service des jeunes serveurs qui font au mieux.

Cons:

La propreté laisse fortement à désirer, avec des chiens et chats errants jusque sur les terrasses des logements. L’état général de l’hôtel est déplorable, notamment pour les chambres familiales. Les photos ne reflètent absolument pas la réalité actuelle de l’établissement, qui est aujourd’hui très défraîchi.

Nous ne sommes restés qu’une seule nuit sur les cinq prévues. Le personnel nous avait assuré, lors de nos échanges WhatsApp, qu’un remboursement serait effectué. Cependant, l’établissement a finalement refusé de procéder à ce remboursement. De son côté, Booking nous a accordé un geste commercial de 100 € sur une réservation de 900 €.

Pour tenter de se faire pardonner, l’établissement nous a offert le repas pris le premier soir.

Certes, nous avons fait le choix de partir et nous l’assumons, mais cela était motivé par un réel sentiment d’insécurité pour nos deux enfants.

Pour couronner le tout, nous avons trouvé une grenouille dans la salle de bain à notre arrivée.

Cosy stay next to coral reef
Pros:

This hotel is tucked away in a really quiet area, just about 200 meters from Coral Island, which made it perfect for a relaxing stay. The room was spotless and nicely designed—it felt both cozy and stylish at the same time.

Breakfast was one of my favorite parts. Everything tasted fresh, especially the fruits and juices, and there was a nice variety of local dishes to try. The whole area has a very peaceful vibe, and the ocean nearby is incredibly clean and almost empty.

I genuinely enjoyed my time here. A big thank you to the staff—they were so warm and welcoming and really made us feel at home.

Wunderschöne Unterkunft
Pros:

Die Unterkunft ist wunderschön und sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtet. Die Zimmer (wir waren im 1. Stock) sind sehr groß und geräumig, ebenso das Bad. Der Ausblick vom Balkon mit Blick aufs Meer war traumhaft.
Hervorzuheben ist die Freundlichkeit der Angestellten. Wir haben uns sehr willkommen gefühlt. Eric und Devan haben uns bei allen Fragen unterstützt und Ausflüge/Fahrer organisiert. Das Frühstück war sehr reichhaltig, abwechslungsreich und überaus lecker. Für unsere Verhältnisse gab es viel zu viel zum Frühstücken und wir hoffen, dass die Reste nicht weggeworfen werden müssen. Auch die Meeresfrüchte-Platte am Abend können wir sehr empfehlen.

Cons:

Der Wasserdruck in der Dusche ist bei warmen Wasser viel zu niedrig gewesen und es war uns nicht möglich die Temperatur richtig einzustellen.
Der Betreiber wollte das prüfen und reparieren lassen.
Wer Angst vor Insekten hat, ist hier vielleicht nicht gut aufgehoben. Wir hatten regelmäßig Käfer und andere Insekten im Zimmer.

Wonderful Laid-Back Stay Beyond Nilaveli
Pros:

Beautiful laid back small resort on a remote beach. My room was large and comfortable and had a huge balcony overlooking the beach toward Pigeon Island. The staff and owner were helpful and accommodating. The breakfast was copious...save room for the delicious Sri Lankan options which come as a "fourth" course. Sunrise is dream like. You will share the beach mainly with local fishermen and friendly dogs.

Cons:

Dining options around the resort are limited, but Sara's up the road is a nice place for a light local meal. Internet was a bit slow.

Wunderschön gelegenes Hotel am Meer
Pros:

Das allerschönste Hotel, das wir in Sri Lanka besucht haben! Tolle Architektur im Stil vonGeoffrey Bawa, mit vielen Bildern von Laki Senanayake. Alles ist sehr sauber und gepflegt, Eric ist ein sehr hilfsbereiter und herzlicher Host. Seine Mitarbeiter ebenso. Das Frühstück ist unglaublich reichhaltig mir europäischen und srilankischen Gerichten. Der Blick aufs Meer ist ein Traum und das Schwimmen im so klaren Wasser unübertroffen. Das Hotel ist sehr abgelegen und ruhig. Es hat jedoch ein paar kleine Restaurants in der Nähe und Eric organisiert jederzeit ein Tuktuk für Ausflüge. danke!

Cons:

Da noch nicht Saison ist, sieht man bei Strandspaziergängen viel durch vergangene Sturmfluten angeschwemmten Plastikmüll, der noch nicht fertig weggeräumt ist. rund ums Hotel ist der Strand sehr gepflegt.

Pros:

L'emplacement face à la plage et à Pigeon Island.
Le personnel attentif et attentionné.
La pisicine.
La vue de la chambre.

Cons:

C'était clairement le logement le plus cher de notre road trip père-fille et vraiment pas le meilleur...rapport qualité prix très décevant. Beaucoup de travaux en cours (pots de peinture dans les parties communes, balustrade cassée, bassin au pied des chambres à deux tiers vides. Bref un standing pas à la hauteur du prix demandé.
