"I was supposed to stay for two nights. As soon as I saw my room I wanted to leave. I did stay one night due to the penalty and checked out the next day. My parent’s and brother Checked out two days early. I went through Expedia to get a refund. My brother sat in the lobby and argued with the management to get a refund. He did finally get a refund for two nights. The in house manager gave us one answer and the big boss wanted to charge my brother for two night. I must say the staff was friendly, but unfortunately the rooms were smelly- mine smelt like a urinal and my brother’s room had a strong smell of smoke. My Parents room had exposed kettle wire and no hot water at all. The phones didn’t work and not everyone had WiFi. .The ocean had strong currents and very windy. We drove a little further and stayed st 22 Welligama bay beach resort and it was perfect."

"The staff were some of the best people we have ever met. They made the entire place feel like home and treated us like family."

"The service is impeccable, from arrival, to drinks at the beach to breakfast. The property appears to be relatively new, the rooms are spacious and so are the bathrooms. "

"Beautiful and special property. Outstanding customer service. Lots of low key and interesting activities. Great pool and gorgeous beach. The food could have been better and more fairly priced, but the staff was attentive to our concerns. "

"Friendly staff and facilities at the hotel are good. Nearest beach is a rocky beach. Last few KM of the road leading to the hotel is very poor. This section needs to upgrade and possibly out of hotel managements' control. They may need to coordinate with the neighboring hotels and the local authority. However, signs leading to the hotel from the main road is not very clear. Google maps lead to a circuitous route. Need to upgrade the signs leading to the hotel in every junction and this is under hotel management. "

"Amazing service, staff members very attentive, delicious food, beautiful resort "

"Amazing stay, even extended twice. The service is second to none, everything is no problem. From the amazing view of the sea to all the varied wildlife in the grounds, posse of monkeys visit every day drinking from the pool and generally being monkeys to peacocks, a mongoose, frogs, all the birds. Nick the owner is a friendly chap and clearly set the ethos of this place and is always around to help if needed. Kalpa and Umesh (managers) are great, absolute credit to the place. Can’t say a bad word, if we are back to Sri Lanka then a visit here will be on the cards again. We had 2 rooms, both great, outdoor showers, very clean, air con, amazing views over the lagoon, comfy beds. Best place we stayed in Sri Lanka, only left as we had plans. The beach is 2 min walk away past all the hermit crabs, we saw baby turtles going into the sea one evening just before they close the beach due to conservation. We then went another night with the turtle conservation next door and witnessed a turtle laying eggs. This place has it all."

"Very relaxing stay next to the lagoon but also an easy walk to the beach. Only one restaurant was open aged that was on the beach so a bit of a trek when it rained. My room looked out on to a corridor which wasn’t ideal and the sealant around bathroom fittings was black with mildew. But largely these are minor details to a comfortable and relaxing stay at a fair price."
