This hotel was one of the best hotels we stayed in Sri Lanka. Everything was just perfect: the beach, the restaurant, the service and all amenities. We stayed in a private garden villa , the room was super clean and nicely decorated. The breakfast had a big variety of healthy meals, lunch and dinner menu is very good, has a big choice of fresh fish and seafood. The service was just excellent! Highly recommend to go to cinema under the stars and enjoy a movie on the beach.
Will definitely recommend this place to friends.

Восторг полнейший) Начиная от сотрудников, которые нас встречали на входе в отель. Совсем не хотелось уезжать, но смогли забронировать только на один день, на другие даты уже не было свободных вилл. Встретил нас главный менеджер и у нас был личный помощник.
Все так красиво, номера с собственным двориком более уединенные, чем те, что с выходом к морю. Интерьер очень стильный, классная зона для чая и душ на улице, а самое главное-это наличие ванной) В главном корпусе есть зона для работы на компьютере и детская зона-невероятно красивая комната. На пляже много фотозон, возле бассейна есть бар, официанты разносят напитки. Завтрак идеальный, подача и сами блюда-высший класс. Ужин понравился, заказывали блюдо от шефа, оно зависит от улова в этот день. У нас были лобстеры. Везде делают комплиментики-кокосы при вселении, креветки у бассейна, детокс напитки на завтрак и т.д. Много путешествуем, но именно этот отель запал в сердце. Наверное, дело ещё в душевном отношении к каждому гостю. Главный менеджер Умберто - итальянец, провожал нас вместе с остальными сотрудниками. Обязательно вернёмся ещё.

Unforgettable, amazing, paradise. Glamping on another level. Complete luxury with every need looked after. Our whole family loved everything about this place. The kids highlight was the outside waterfall shower. The beach was beautiful and we loved watching the fishermen on the beach. All the staff were lovely.

We’ve just spent 10 days recharging at this beautiful resort – what a stunning and peaceful place. A heartfelt thank you to Umberto and his wonderful team for making our stay so special. We stayed in one of the beachfront Pallams, which offered a perfect blend of indoor and outdoor space. The highlight was definitely the uninterrupted view of the ocean and the spectacular sunrises each morning – absolutely breathtaking. The food was consistently excellent, with a great variety and a well-balanced mix of Western and Sri Lankan dishes. Every meal felt thoughtful and delicious, with something to suit every mood. This was our fourth visit to Sri Lanka, and although we were fortunate enough to stay for 10 days, it’s well worth spending at least three nights here to truly enjoy the beach and relax into the pace of the resort. A special mention goes to the magical cinema under the stars – such a unique and peaceful way to enjoy a film. We left feeling refreshed and grateful, and would return in a heartbeat.

Ok, so far this is the best hotel I have ever stayed taking into consideration its value for money. The place is exactly how you see it on the pictures! Very attentive General manager who does a lot to keep high standards. Food was amazing, spa was very peaceful, rooms are of good size and you can notice attention to details everywhere. Definitely will come back as 3 nights were not enough here!

The entire resort exudes peace and order, from the first contact to departure everything was absolutely perfect. The restaurant staff, the valets, our butler Namal, the manager Umberto, were all perfectly polite and extremely helpful. Everything is clean and tidy, the food is great, the breakfast is perfect. Perfect service and value for money. Highly recommended. Mia & Renato. Greetings from Croatia.
