Nous avons adorés l’accueil de nos hôtes, exceptionnels lors de notre arrivée dans le pays. La nourriture était excellen
Pros:

L’accueil de la dame qui est venue à notre rencontre dès notre arrivée : absolument adorable. Nos hôtes étaient exceptionnels et très gentils, au petit soin après notre vol de quasi 12h et la fatigue accumulée.
La piscine était super propre et hyper appréciable, les repas excellents et gargantuesques, on a adoré ces premiers repas Sri Lankais. La plage est juste devant l’établissement : c’est hyper appréciable et magnifique au couché du soleil.

Cons:

Rien tout était top.
Une petit déception malgré tout mais non lié à l’établissement en lui même : la plage qui est juste devant, n’avait pas été nettoyée par les autorités et donc nous n’avons pas vraiment pu en profiter, mais encore une fois cela n’est en aucun cas lié à l’établissement.

Sehr freundliches und zuvorkommendes Personal, leckeres frisch zubereitetes Frühstück und sehr gutes Abendessen, saubere
Pros:

Sehr freundliches und zuvorkommendes Personal, leckeres frisch zubereitetes Frühstück und sehr gutes Abendessen. Die Lage am Meer ist schön, der Pool sauber. Aufgrund der Nähe zum Airport für einen Ankommensstopp war es perfekt.

Cons:

Wegen Regenzeit, hoher Wellen und Treibgut war das Meer aktuell wirklich nicht zum Baden geeignet, was wir allerdings schon vorher gelesen hatten.
Die Standards an Sauberkeit pingeliger Deutscher würde es wahrscheinlich nicht erfüllen.
In unserem Zimmer war die Klimaanlage etwas laut bzw. hat Vibrationen und damit ein leichtes Brummen verursacht. Mit Oropax ließ es sich dennoch gut schlafen.

Great location. Great staff
Pros:

We spent a relaxing 3 nights at the end of our trip. Staff were exceptional. Great beach side restaurants. We especially enjoyed the one to the left of the resort when looking at the ocean. It is a very small restaurant run by a family. Food there was excellent and the service personable.

Great place to stay in Negombo!
Pros:

I stayed here for 11 days and plan to return again next year. The staff at this hotel are so friendly and helpful. I had breakfast here many days. It is a simple breakfast. Usually eggs and fruit and toast. The pool area is beautiful and surrounded by greenery. The pool is kept very clean. It is right on the beach and a short walk to many restaurants, stores, pharmacies, and Tuk tuks. I really enjoyed my stay here.
