Flying with Sri Lankan Airlines. To Dubai about 4 hours, fed (a cracker, which is given as an aperitif - terribly spicy! ), There refueling, crew change and further to Colombo for another 5 hours, fed again. Before Dubai, the plane was half empty, many people got off in Dubai, but after cleaning the cabin in our presence, the plane was filled to capacity with Sri Lankans returning home from work.

Before Dubai, the plane was half empty, many people got off in Dubai, but after cleaning the cabin in our presence, the plane was filled to capacity with Sri Lankans returning home from work.
The TV works even during parking, so you can watch a bunch of films (there are also in Russian). By the way, there is an entry in Russian about Sri Lanka (a tour of the island) - located in the "Music" section.
At the airport, they paid for a visa ($35 per person) at a counter with a corresponding sign (they didn’t immediately figure out what to do and where to go, since the counter with visa stamping somehow doesn’t stand out), got their luggage, changed dollars and got on the bus to Trincomalee (we were alone in the minibus).
The road took about 6 hours - road repair, traffic jams.
We arrived at the hotel around 15:00 and checked in. True extra. The bed was brought not immediately, but quickly enough. The room has a safe, tea, water, milk for free, paid mini bar.
We went to the beach around 17:00 - we were alone on the beach! ! ! ! All alone! ! ! We even thought that today it is impossible to swim, but the lifeguard (they are constantly there from morning until evening) said that within the buoys there are no problems - there are strong currents further! Towels are already on the sunbeds - very comfortable, you can’t drag them anywhere!
The territory of the hotel is wonderful, clean, well-groomed, tasteful. From living creatures, shy chipmunks (I saw them 3 times), 2 deer (it's really cute) and cicadas (they ring in my ears, so this is more of a minus). There are no more animals. And I forgot, there are still toads (I think, because the rainy season), but plus or minus - for an amateur
The food is delicious, I would even say exquisite. I liked everything from breakfast and salads to lobster and nat.
cuisine (from which, of course, I almost took off because of the number of hot peppers! )
Service is beyond praise. 7 out of 5.12 out of 10. All the staff are very friendly and helpful, the waiters and administrators are nice and pleasant, all our whims and whims were fulfilled instantly (within their capabilities, of course). It is said, of course, that the hotel is young and that there were very few visitors in it. All the waiters are eagerly trying to learn Russian (it will be very useful for them when the hotel gains momentum) - I beg you, do not teach them all sorts of vulgarities and rudeness! Teach them beautiful Russian!
Entertainment - the hotel is a year old, and they still have not taken care of their infrastructure, which was very sad to find out already on the spot! The most suitable slogan for a hotel is "Alone with nature". Apart from swimming, eating, sleeping in the hotel there is nothing else to do!
This hotel is ONLY if you really don’t need to go anywhere or have already seen everything or all excursions are expected after the rest. Those who want to forget about civilization, about the hustle and bustle, about other people - you are here, just first check if the spa is open (for complete harmony). The spa was promised to open in July 2013, apparently they will not have a gift shop. Of the existing entertainment - 2 water scooters, boating, walks in the nearby jungle (a dubious event - they announce that on this walk you can meet birds, rabbits, and most importantly elephants. It's good that we still didn't meet them, t I don't really imagine our meeting with these wild giants on foot!!!
) The hotel is located in such a wilderness that you can order a taxi only at the reception - this is correspondingly more expensive (no, you can, of course, after walking 10 minutes to the main road, try to catch a tuk-tuk on the highway, but we did not dare). The reception can also arrange trips to Trincomalee, Sigiriya, airport transfers.
Wi-fi is free and in principle is, but more or less decently works only in the bar. The bungalow is constantly cut down.
Spa and Ayurveda. As already mentioned, the hotel spa has not yet opened. The nearest spa is 20 minutes by tuk-tuk to the neighboring hotel (Hotel Pigeon Island). There is one massage therapist. The next spa is already in Trincomalee (30 minutes by tuk-tuk) near the Sea Lotus Park Hotel. Salonchik hold husband and wife (masseurs, respectively, 2)! The prices for both spas are the same. A note to those accustomed to fancy spas - you won't like it there.
Tours.
We hired a tuk-tuk and for 4 thousand rupees and 1 hour there and back, the driver gave us a small impromptu excursion: he showed us hot springs near Trincomalé (Kania, it seems), the Hintu temple, a supermarket for buying tea (the main point of our trip) and on the way back another temple along the way.
Then we hired a car at the hotel and for 15 thousand rupees we went to Sigiriya on a rock (the eighth wonder of the world), and to an eco park (3 hours one way). On the way to the eco park (elephant safari) we stopped at the spice garden - it's time to kill, so to speak, because it's better to go on a safari either early in the morning or after 4 o'clock in the afternoon. They killed not only time, but also a lot of money, they sell not only spices, but also various creams, oils from everything for a very expensive price! ! ! !
Already on the spot, at the hotel, we had to change the program and we left the hotel a day earlier in order to still get at least some tea plantation.
Leaving at 7 am, by lunchtime we reached Kandy, where we visited one of the tea factories, a jewelry store, and only by 8 pm were in Colombo, at the hotel.
At the airport, we changed the money back (the exchange rate at the exit from the country, of course, is slightly worse than at the entrance, although we may have been so "lucky"), we went through customs (they wrote that screening of everyone is mandatory, but our suitcases were driven only along the tape), packed our bags and went to have breakfast in the duty free zone. There, of course, all the same teas, elephants, Buddhas, drags. stones and fabrics. I compared prices for tea (we bought it in a supermarket), of course, it is more expensive in a dutik (an iron can of 400 g in a supermarket is 200 rupees cheaper). I did not compare with factory prices.
The host party (Connaissance de Sri-Lanka) is located in Colombo, so there is no sense from them - either they need to call all the time (and she does not answer - which was in my case), or write (site in English and French), or do it all by yourself...
Vera (representative) called us to the room as soon as we arrived (that is, we still didn’t understand anything at all), wished us a good rest and disappeared. Literally 3 hours later, when we found out that there was no Spa in the hotel, I started calling her and was able to get through only after a while (I understand that it was not urgent, but Vera doesn’t know this ! ! And if I was at that moment already in the police and tried to get through to her to get me out! ). when I asked her to organize a tour for us, she told me that it was inconvenient for them to drive a driver from Colombo, and it would be more expensive for us than “just to find out at the hotel what they have”. To the objection “we need a tour in Russian”, Vera replied “yes, why do you need it? You speak English! » In general, I absolutely did not like the attitude of the host towards us!

Not everything fit in the previous review, so I had to divide by 2. Restaurant: drinks, as elsewhere in Sri Lanka (unless, of course, All Inclusive) are not included, so we went to sit at the bar before dinner (or after), well, firstly, to drink very tasty beer or rum, and secondly, you need something then engage.

Not everything fit in the previous review, so I had to divide by 2.
Restaurant: drinks, as elsewhere in Sri Lanka (unless, of course, All Inclusive) are not included, so we went to sit at the bar before dinner (or after), well, firstly, to drink very tasty beer or rum, and secondly, you need something then engage. We enjoyed talking with the bartender and in general with the staff, they are very friendly and happy to communicate with guests.
Territory: not very big, but there is where to walk. A lot of greenery, paths everywhere, cleaned all day. The territory is landscaped, with bridges and wooden decks, I run monitor lizards, geckos, there are monkeys.
Cleaning: they clean twice a day, in the morning and in the evening, they spread the bed in the evening and replenish tea and coffee, in the morning a full cleaning.
Infrastructure: this is the only minus of the hotel. It is far from everything, there are no shops or cafes. You can, of course, take a car and go to Trincomalee (by the way, all foreigners did this, and when we swam and sunbathed, they went to Trincomalee for alcohol (it’s quite expensive in a bar) or for a walk) we never got out of the hotel, firstly ahead we had 5 days of excursions, and in the second we took breakfasts and dinners and we had enough food, and the time flew by so quickly that we simply did not want to spend it on shops. However, the hotel continues to develop and next year they plan to open billiards, a spa with Ayurveda, a tennis court and some other entertainment, but for those who want peace, it’s so good.
WHO I RECOMMEND THE HOTEL: This is very important, because if you like discos, show programs and nightlife in general, then the hotel is definitely not for you and you will be counting the days until departure. But if you love nature, are ready to enjoy the silence and naturalness, if you do not expect dances and alcoholic vapors from rest, then YOU ARE EXACTLY HERE!!!
The three of us rested - me, my husband and son (22 years old) everyone liked the rest and we will definitely return there again, especially since we found friends there.
And another important point - the hotel is not cheap, so it is unlikely to suit those who are considering budget options.
If you have any questions, write, I will be happy to share everything I know.
We were on 12 more excursions in Sri Lanka and I will definitely describe our trip, only in another review.

We started planning our trip to Sri Lanka back in March 2012, although we were going to go only in September. Plans are plans, and thinking and sorting out hotels, excursions, coasts, etc. we quietly crept up to the date of departure. Hotels were selected, excursions were agreed and we went to the tour operator to book hotels chosen with such difficulty (I’ll say right away that I always approach planning my vacation thoroughly) and then the first surprise while we were choosing hotels was that the places for the dates we needed were already occupied.

We started planning our trip to Sri Lanka back in March 2012, although we were going to go only in September.

Hotels were selected, excursions were agreed and we went to the tour operator to book hotels chosen with such difficulty (I’ll say right away that I always approach planning my vacation thoroughly) and then the first surprise while we were choosing hotels was that the places for the dates we needed were already occupied. And we initially chose Chaaya Blu and Blue Water Resor. And we again (only in a short time) choose hotels, as a result, the choice fell on - JUNGLE BEACH Resort and Bentota Beach. Why am I telling in such detail - because despite the problems that have arisen, we have never regretted our choice. So the first hotel we went to in Sri Lanka was the JUNGLE BEACH Resort.
It takes quite a long time to get to the hotel, about 8 hours, and if we take into account the 11 hours of flight, then the journey is still something... but we were mentally prepared and therefore everything went well. On the way, we looked at the villages, nature and amazing driving on the roads of Sri Lanka. Of course, we hoped that the hotel would be good, since it is not very cheap and it is only 3 months old, the hotel not only met our expectations, but also exceeded them. I will try to describe the hotel and our bungalow. At the entrance to the hotel, you pass through a large gate, which is guarded around the clock by two security guards, along a beautiful path sprinkled with red clay, approach a wooden deck in the form of a bridge that leads to the reception. The roof above the flooring is made of large palm leaves, the hotel positions itself as an eco-friendly hotel. During its construction, only ecological materials were used and the green area (trees, bushes) was almost completely preserved. Every guest gets immediate attention. We were greeted with cool towels and cocktails (I must say right away that during our vacation we visited 7 hotels and everywhere we were greeted equally well, but only in this hotel the cocktail was made from freshly squeezed fruit). We were shown the room that we booked (it was a room on the 1st floor in a two-story house with windows overlooking the lagoon), but as we passed we saw a bungalow with access to the beach and that's it....I want, I dream, let's... we got what what they wanted (albeit for an extra charge) and finally we are in our bungalow. The room is about 40 meters, divided into 2 zones. Zone 1 - a large bed (by the way, a stunning orthopedic mattress) 2x2 meters, a small sofa, a desk with a TV, two stylish floor lamps. The ceilings are approximately 7.5 meters, access to the veranda (the wall is all glass), on the veranda there are 2 trestle beds, a table and chairs. Zone 2 - large wardrobe, tea and coffee making area (tea, coffee, cream, milk and water replenished daily). Bathroom about 15 meters, euro-shower, mini perfumes, towels, hair dryer, etc. The second shower on the street (very cool to wash there after the beach) hot and cold water around the clock. From the veranda there is a personal path to the ocean (10 meters) under beautiful woven trees, especially when it gets dark and we turned on the spotlight, the trees seemed fabulous, the beauty is incredible.
Beach: a huge, clean strip of beach. The ocean is calm and azure, cappuccino-colored sand and unusually soft, the only negative is the black clay that it brings to the shore, the clay does not get dirty and does not interfere, but it does not look very good in the photo. There are more than enough trestle beds on the beach, there are two trestle beds under one large umbrella. As soon as you appear on the beach, a hotel employee immediately rushes to you with towels and mattresses. On the beach there are two towers (also under palm leaves) with security, lifeguards are on duty. There were no Slavs at the hotel of our brothers, there were Dutch, British, Australians, and therefore there was almost never anyone on the beach besides us, as the locals explained to us, they don’t like the beach (they really don’t want to sunbathe), and foreigners prefer the pool. Every day we enjoyed swimming, diving and catching crabs.
Swimming pool: sustained, like everything else in this eco-style hotel, clean, beautiful, there is a jacuzzi area and a children's area, the water is very warm and clear, the service is the same as everywhere else, just come to the pool they already carry towels, turn on the jacuzzi and look in in the mouth trying to understand, Cheno we still wish.
Restaurant: Very stylish, beautiful and tasty. I myself have been working in a restaurant for 5 years and I can appreciate the quality of the dishes - the quality is very high, but during our vacation the chef was absent for 2 days, these days the quality has dropped a lot, we asked the waiter why, explained that the hotel is new and chefs have taken the best in the country, but the staff is still learning. Breakfast - buffet, but not in the sense of "a La Turkey" is more of a continental breakfast - coffee, tea, fresh juices, toast, fruit, smoothies, muesli, omelettes, scrambled eggs, waffles, jams. Dinner is a custom menu, if you stay at the hotel for 20 days, then I think that the menu will get a little bored, but if it’s 8-10 days, then you’ll like it. The menu includes 4 types of soups, 3 types of pasta, sea dishes, meat dishes, many desserts, salads, sandwich burgers. There are themed dinners.
