Thanks to the management and staff for a wonderful comfortable stay on vacation.

Initially, when we first arrived, I was surprised by the through entrance to the hotel: from the threshold a gorgeous view of the deep and pleasantly noisy ocean wonder of nature, curved graceful palm trees and low population, which could not but rejoice, opens up.

The first and last thing that was not particularly pleasant was the issue of accommodation. Standard - settle here from 12 o'clock. We arrived at seven o'clock in the morning. We were offered to pay $50. e. - and the question is removed. Our principled position did not want to allow us to do this, so it was collectively decided to wait: ) At the same time, we did not waste time in vain. Leaving the "chumaidans" in a secluded corner in the lobby (where the girls from the reception advised us where to do it better), we went to get acquainted with the local territory along the coastline, and on the way back we returned to the hotel on the way.

There they saw a place where they sell "acclaimed" coconut cocktails. To tell the truth, nothing special: pleasantly sweet-tasting water, no more: ) But as an integral part of the Sri Lankan exotic, this is a "must drink" each: ) Then we tasted the power of ocean waves. Girls! Attention: it’s better to take one piece swimsuit with you if you don’t want to catch the “breast” on the waves: )

Number.

At 12 o'clock, a girl from the reception came to us, sleeping on sun loungers, and handed over the keys. We lived on the first floor by the pool. What pleasantly surprised us, in the hotel there is no such thing as "the windows overlook the left flower bed of the backyard near the garbage containers. " All hotel windows look exclusively at the ocean. The room was very comfortable and cute. New furniture, safe (free of charge), refrigerator, TV, chairs, mirror, bedside tables, ceiling fan, good air conditioning, kettle.
The bathroom has expensive new plumbing, a hair dryer, disposable washbasins: shampoo, soap, gel, pleasantly smelling towels. On the balcony - a hanger for drying clothes and two armchairs. In general, everything is done very competently in terms of comfort. They clean the room and change towels every day, while replenishing the supply of drinking water: two bottles of 0.5 per room.

Beach.

Clean, "combed": uncles scratch it daily with a rake : ) Wooden deck chairs, towels, mattresses - everything is free and clean: ) Except for mattresses: the result of the digestion process is often left on them by noisy and annoying Sri Lankan crows: )

Kitchen.

To be honest, I thought that I would miss our native food there, but the opposite is true. After returning from vacation, I missed their dishes. Well, very tasty - it's nothing to say. A variety of meat, chicken, fish, vegetables, salads, side dishes, soups - every day we were surprised with something new.

There were always fruits on the buffet table: pineapple, papaya, watermelon; sweet. And the service at the level of the restaurant: tables served according to the standard, serving tea, water - all this was organized by the attendants. There was a lot. Whatever food ran out was replenished with new portions. As for freshly squeezed juices, it's better not to experiment and drink them in a hotel. For the price, they are not much different from those offered in local cafes. But! There is one but. As our experience has shown, in cafes they are usually diluted with water. The hotel will bring you 100% fresh.

In a word, I highly recommend.
