Absolut grandioser Aufenthalt und bisher das beste Hotel auf unserer Reise!
Pros:

Das Schönste am Hotel war der traumhaft riesige Infinity Pool mit super komfortablen Liegen und einer herrlichen Aussicht. Wir waren fast immer alleine da. unser Zimmer war einfach riesig groß mit herrlich weichen Betten und einer großen Whirlpool Badewanne. Die Preise an Bar unf im Restaurant sind angemessen.wir waren über den Geburtstag unseres Sohnes da und wollten ein besonderes Hitel. Dieses war definitiv die richtige Wahl. Das Zimmerpersonal hat unseren Sohn mit einem toll geschmückten Bett und Luftballons überrascht und zum Abendessen bekamen wir einen wunderschönen geschmückten ganz privaten Tisch an dem 2. kleineren Pool. Zum Abschluss gan es noch eine leckere Schokotorte mit Fontäne. Es war absolut fantastisch

Cons:

Die Massage und Gesichtsbehandlung würde ich nicht weiterempfehlen. War nicht nach meinem Geschmack.

One of the best hotels in Sri Lanka
Pros:

Everything. The hotel was so clean. Staff were amazing. It started with a free upgrade on arrival to one of the largest hotel rooms we have seen. Then the manager personally checked in with us multiple times a day to make sure everything is ok. It was also very clean. The pool is amazing. The buffet breakfast and buffet dinner was truly five star. This hotel far exceeded our expectation. We were also travelling with four kids and they were super friendly and patient with them. The gaming room was a huge plus for our kids too.

Cons:

Nothing

3 night stay with family and friends
Pros:

My family and friends had a very nice experience staying here for 3 nights. The staff gave us a warm welcome and the hospitality extended to all parts of our stay. The dinner staff were especially sweet with my 7 year old daughter. Our favorite part was our evening swims in the infinity pool with beverages from the Kattika bar. The breakfast and dinner spread was generous with something for everyone in our group. The rooms are spacious but could use some upgrades to maintain the 5 star feel of the rest of the property.
