I was travelling with my mum and we truly enjoyed our stay in this hotel! This is perfect place who wants to enjoy nature and quiet holidays. Location Less than 1h drive from Mattala airport. Around 1 hotel and only local village. Across the street bar/restaurant and mini shop. Small city just 5km away, were you can do alcohol, fruit and other shopping. Bigger city Tangalle just 18km away, outside of the hotel always tuktuks are available for the good price. Ella and Yala Safari are close, so it is a good hotel to stay if you plan to visit them. Hotel Good looking, around amazing nature. Monkeys were visiting us every day 😁 There are sunbeds by the pool and closer to the ocean. Beach is public, however, there were only hotel people, rarely locals passing by. Sebastian was very helpful and everyday would put sunbeds to the beach. Beach towels always available at the pool area. There is a pool for kids as well. Rooms are okay, cleaning everyday. Food Food is amazing! Breakfast/Dinner buffet, lunch you have to choose from menu. We have enjoyed lunch a lot, huge portions, so we were sharing 1 lunch for 2. The way they cool seafood is amazing, and i liked all of the sauces that were available. You will not be left hungry 😁 Alcohol is not available in hotel, but you can buy it from Ranna or in the bar across the street. Food is easy to digest, 1st time in asian country I didn’t have problems with stomach 😁 Hospitality All staff is super friendly, always here to help you. Do not be shy or afraid to ask, you will get what you need. Staff is doing everything for you to be happy. People outside in the village helpful and friendly as well, they are not tired of tourists yet, always smiling and make you feel welcome in their homeland. Swimming Most of the time waves are big, but if you know how to swim, you can do it. There are guards they always keep an eye when you are in the water Take mosquito spray! Or buy local oil. There are locals selling tours on the beach. Do not be afraid to buy from them. They have good price and providing best service, because it is very important for them.
