We stayed at this hotel while on a promotional tour. It was the first hotel on Sri Lankan soil. Since we got in the off-season (October), apart from us, we actually did not see other tourists at the hotel. Now in order.
Accommodation: In total, the hotel has 6 three-story buildings and a complex of villas on stilts over the water. We lived in the first building in a deluxe room. Large area, beautiful interior, luxurious bathroom. The room has everything you need. Minibar for extra charge. Tea and coffee (there is a kettle in the room) and water for 0.5 are replenished for free. The room is equipped (free of charge) with an electronic safe, an ironing board and an iron. Ocean view from the room. But it is worth noting that the furniture upholstery (armchairs, sofa) does not look fresh (((Dust and stains available(((
Meals: Since there were few people in our period, then they fed us in the restaurant "horizon" - located on the 2nd floor of the main building and is used as "a la carte" during the season. I liked the food. Despite the abundance of peppered dishes (this is the tradition of Sri Lankan cuisine), there has always been traditional food. Meat, fish, shrimps) Several types of fresh juices. In general, I think everyone will find a piece for themselves and will not remain hungry)). The main restaurant "Ocean" (or "ocean") was closed in our period.
The hotel area is quite spacious. Large green meadows, tall palm trees, tropical greenery. . . The hotel staff is helpful and friendly). You don’t need to take beach towels - you went to the beach and immediately the beach boy brings them to you and covers the sunbed. A trifle, but nice). A wide beach strip with yellow coarse sand and a relatively quiet ocean for this period. The water temperature was 26-27 degrees. The hotel has two outdoor pools, which are located at the first building and the third. The spa center "Coco-spa" is located on the territory of the villas. The gym is free and is located on the second floor of the main building (near the Horizon restaurant), but children under 16 are not allowed there.
And a few more words about the location of the hotel as a whole: it stands on the ocean near the fishing village. There are no shops or cafes near the hotel. We really found a kiosk with a friend. but there was nothing edible except cookies, Coca-Cola and coconuts (. Therefore, we had to take a tuk-tuk (we wanted 2000 rupees, but bargained for 1000) and go to the city of Chilau (8 kilometers to the south), where we already found a grocery shop. Therefore, the hotel recommend taking a full board. Well, or half board.
And in the end - I recommend the hotel. First of all, for those who want to lie down and relax, be alone with nature and the ocean.
