Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Unpretentious Quality
Very relaxed, easy going place, great location, breezy view of estuary. It's a large room, nice furniture, bedding etc. Bar, very diversely stocked supermarket, resistant and coffee shop downstairs, means you have most things at your fingertips. Beach is 5-10min walk, as is boat hire, (all the fun craft available). I hired a kayak for an hour, very pleasant easy lagoon and estuary paddle.its a short walk from Aluthgama station. Bentota is over the bridge.

This place is a combination of a nice though dated hotel (with excellent facilities) an attached coffee shop and a Riverside restaurant with food and views worth dying for and add to that the management who tries to go out of the way to accommodate all your requests
