"Vi ankom sent pga trafikk. Hotellet sendte oss underveis en WhatsApp melding og lurte på når vi ankom. Flott gest. Fine rom, veldig god og personlig service. God beliggenhet på flott strand, rolig område. God restaurant med hyggelig betjening. Veldig trivelig at eier (Andrea) kom over for å hilse på oss. Vi hadde behov for transport til Unawatuna etter vårt opphold, det ordnet hotellet på kort varsel. Tusen takk og mange anbefalinger fra oss👍"
