Absolutely amazing retreat ! This is a hidden gem. A beautiful place tucked away by the Lagoon. Superb for kitesurfing. Lovely accommodation right on the water. The staff are incredible and Matt and his team at the Kitesurf Centre are the best.

Na een hobbelige zandweg kom je op een afgelegen domein. Je wordt er hartelijk ontvangen en naar je bungalow begeleid. Een zeer nette kamer die uitkijkt op de lagoon, vol met kitesurfers zodra de wind opkomt. Er is een kleine pier met hut die uitkijkt op de lagoon en waar je een prachtige zonsondergang kan zien. Zodra je toekomt kan je je aansluiten op de whatsapp groep voor maaltijden te bestellen, yoga, kitesurfing en alle laatste updates. De kamer wordt dagelijks schoongemaakt en water bijgevuld. Als er geen wind is loopt Matt, de kite instructeur, er ergens rond om mensen te woord te staan voor lessen, anders via whatsapp. De boot gaat van het kitecenter naar de lagoon zodra de wind opduikt en kruist een paar keer na teamwissels of lunch die geleverd wordt. Na drie weken Sri Lanka moet ik eerlijk toegeven dat we hier het best hebben gegeten. De diners schommelen rond 3500 roepies, maar is echt de moeite waard!

A lovely place to relax and on windy days (of which there are many) go wind or kite surfing. I tried wind surfing with Matt who was patient and knowledgable. The staff were delightful and the food delicious. They have an excellent chef, who is a cut above, although the food is quite rich, which may not be to everyone’s taste. We did have problems when we arrived - the road from the local town was almost impassable by car - tuk tuk would have been much better - and Google maps tooks us on the worse of the two roads in. Some of this was beyond their control as there had been heavy rain the day before but nevertheless more needs to be done to inform clients of the best way to arrive.

This place is a little paradise. The remote location, in between salt mines and the lagoon, surrounded by hundreds of palm trees is absolutely amazing. The chalet rooms and their outdoor bathrooms are gorgeous and very clean. As we were visiting in the off-season, the hotel was far from full. But this turned out to be the best thing ever: we had the azure pool for ourselves and the highly attentive, professional and polite staff fulfilled all our wishes and even more than that. All food leaving the chef’s kitchen is of a very high quality and simply delicious - try the curry crusted seabass. Last but not least, they have a stunning little rooftop bar at their kitesurfing center with views on the salt mines, the lagoon and the sea at the same time where they serve good cocktails. I recommend this amazing place more than every other hotel we visited on our 3-week tour. Simply amazing.

Außergewöhnlich gutes Essen. Wir wurden jeden Abend verwöhnt Sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtete Zimmer mit Klimaanlage. Sehr zuvorkommendes Personal, die einem jedem Wunsch von den Augen ablesen Sehr kinderfreundlich. Ruhig gelegen, um sich richtig erholen zu können. Die Kitestion ist auf der anderen Seite der Lagune und bequem mit dem Shuttleboot zu erreichen.
