We had the hotel basically just for us (there was just 1 other guest that left the next mornign). Unfortunately the pandemic hit hard in Sri Lanka which resulted in many hotels closing for 2 years. When we arrived it looked like they were not even expecting us, and we had to wait for the room to be prepared. Nevertheless, they quickly called reinforces and prepared everything for our stay. The hotel is very isolated, which is great to relax. The beach is just unbelievably calm, relaxing and stunning. You can be swimming while seeing monkeys in the palm trees, and without seeing any other tourist for hours and hours (contrary to Unawatuna and Mirissa areas). The dinner was delicious and carefully prepared. The staff is also lovely, and we could see they are doing their best to start recovering the business. The only reasons I can't give 5 stars to this are: the clear lack of maintenance in the hotel (many parts need an urgent fix and restructure) and also, they just changed the bed sheets of one of our beds while preparing the room. When I went to sleep in the single bed, I realized it was all dirty, with dozens of small dead bugs (inside and outside of the bed/sheets) and mold. However, we called the man in service that night, and he quickly changed the bed sheets. You have EVERYTHING it takes to become a 5* place, just PLEASE do some maintenance and be more careful with hygiene. I believe this was due to the fact they were closed for 2 years, and didn't had costumers since the reopening in that room. But everything else is fantastic.

We have stayed in many places all round Sri Lanka, north, south, east, west , middle etc . Having walked past this beautiful place previously on another trip, we decided to return for a more relaxing stay ( compared to what we had taken on previously in Sri Lanka) There is nothing at all to complain about, it’s clean, the room views are fantastic, the price is great ( remember you get what you pay for). The staff are all fantastic. Yes it’s off the beaten track, if you want to party go elsewhere. Of course the waves can be heard ( I’ve seen this complained about) And of course there is no lifts, it’s a tiny place. We initially booked 7 nights and with the hotel being perfect for our stay we extended to 14 nights Scooters available to hire, they will get one delivered for you, airport transfer no problem ( additional cost naturally). Food is fantastic. As with the whole of the southern part of Sri Lanka insect repellent is needed at times. Why go anywhere else
