The Hotel was excellent but if you want a massage or facial your skin colour matters very much. I went for a facial and massage. Was told the lady had gone home as she had no appointments but will call her and she will be 10 mins can I wait. I said OK. Waited and White lady came after me. When the person doing the massage came I was told she is busy with another client they will come and get me from my room in 20 minutes. I knew this was a blatant lie as I understand the Sinhalese. I heard them ask her if they can do both together and she said it was impossible. So although I was first the colour of my skin mattered. I did say to them I am not coming I will come back when my skin colour turns white. They tried to then make amends by sending someone to accompany us to dinner and he asked how my facial and massage went and I told him and his reply was that tourism is low at the moment so they took her first. I said in the UK you can be any colour but it goes with first come first serve basis and not the colour of your skin or if you are a tourist. I was born in Sri Lanka but have lived 50 years in UK. I am a tourist as well and this was about my 5 trip to SL in the 50 years. The price was the same as there was a price list. So why should someone go first because of the colour of their skin. I heard all the conversations because I am fluent in English and Sinhalese. This resort should say for people with White complexions ONLY
