Relax Resort Villa After a trip to a large hotel in November last year, we decided to go to a small hotel, and for the price it was very attractive. This is a private villa, we found it purely by chance, and decided to write a request, we were quickly answered and we booked a room. for 6 rooms, everything is done beautifully with huge sculptures of landscapes on the walls, the favorable atmosphere there is very conducive to a good rest.

Relax Resort Villa
After a trip to a large hotel in November last year, we decided to go to a small hotel, and for the price it was very attractive. This is a private villa, we found it purely by chance, and decided to write a request, we were quickly answered and we booked a room. for 6 rooms, everything is done beautifully with huge sculptures of landscapes on the walls, the favorable atmosphere there is very conducive to a good rest.
Since few people in Russia know the hotel, I want to say that it is very comfortable there. . Each room has its own design. Very high ceilings. Spacious rooms. A huge balcony where we often sat in the evenings. Breakfast is always freshly squeezed juice, fruit, scrambled eggs, sandwiches. Delicious. At your choice, you can order something else, a large pool. We often ordered lunch and dined near the pool in the gazebo.
It is felt when there is no crowd. Very calm and quiet place, next time you should go not with a friend, but with a loved one. Since it is a very romantic place to spend your holidays with your loved ones.
After a large hotel, the choice fell in favor of a small hotel and they did not regret it. no noise, no crowd. wake up and enjoy the silence. the singing of birds. It's great to rent a villa - also if you go with a big group. the whole hotel will be at your disposal.
The villa has a very pleasant owner and a Russian manager, who always responded to our every whim, and all the employees are very polite and helpful.
Ocean
The ocean always beckons. . . it's nice to take a walk.... the sand is golden-gray. . . it doesn't sink under your feet. . . the waves lightly touching your feet caress. . . an inexpressible feeling. . . after the ocean, thoughts of going to Europe have completely disappeared. . . every day we went to the beach, just after a hearty breakfast it's nice to take a walk. . . there are sunbeds and umbrellas... and then you can immediately have lunch. Although in the heat it is better to hide and sit in a restaurant. It is very nice to cut the waves on the board. Asked the beach boys and they brought boards. The ocean in September was much stronger and it was impossible to swim without a board, but now you could enjoy the ocean and swim at your own pleasure. Sometimes we went to the beach in the Taj, there are big waves in the morning, and it's great to drive on the boards.
Restaurants
We visited all the restaurants in the area and chose Lagun Garden and Serena Vila restaurants. Very nice staff, excellent food, you can eat seafood as well as European food. My friend and I took one serving for two, as they are just huge and they are simply not able to eat one at a time. very tasty freshly squeezed juices. in the evening they put on a drum show. For drinks - they drank local rum. this is something, and if you dilute it with cola... the local gin and tonic is also not inferior... )))
We went to Alyutgama for fruit, ate pineapple and mango and passion fruit, there was also a season for jack fruit, guava....delicious....
Excursions
We went on a 2 day tour. Kandy - Sigiriya. The trip started at 5 am, the tour was booked at the manager’s villa. On the way, we stopped very often to see and not miss the sights, we stopped at a pineapple plantation, an elephant nursery, a botanical garden, a tea factory, in general, we spent the whole day in Kandy, in the evening the Temple of the Tooth Relic . We stayed in the city for the night. The next day we left for Sigiriya.
Sigiriya met us in the heat. Be sure to take a hat, as the sun bakes very strongly. Climbing the mountain is a bit difficult, at the end of the legs did not go. From the top there is a beautiful view of the mountains and the surrounding area. running wild monkeys through the ruins of the former palace.
I'm going to warn you right now - it's very difficult. Serpantinka is so sick that it makes you feel nauseous and you want to go back to the hotel. But it is important for yourself to set a goal - what do you want to get from the island and then go. The roads are not very good, apparently the state does not invest money. The traffic is very active and the drivers drive like that... breathtaking . . there are no rules at all... but it was not scary with ours.
The rest of the time we swam and just rested, we didn’t want to leave. we even thought about changing tickets and staying 3 more days, but all flights to Moscow were full. we were offered to fly away on the 28th, but we had to go to work and then we decided that it would be better to return in a couple of three months....and we will definitely be back . . I'm sure of it)) !! !
