チェックアウトの際に、支払い後に、部屋の確認として待たされた時間やOKの出し方は、非常に不愉快でした。

The building seems to be popular under the name of Bawa, but the service did not seem to match.
There were three negative points.
First, there were an unusually large number of crows and herons. They were bathing in the pool and the various things that had accumulated on the edge of the pool made it clear that it was not very hygienic.
By the way, the room was very well cleaned.
Secondly, the in-room dining service that you order via WhatsApp was not working. Even after I ordered, it was never read and never brought.
Finally, the breakfast that I had requested by email when making the reservation did not arrive. I ordered a light meal to take motion sickness medicine as I was leaving early in the morning, but I ended up leaving without breakfast, which was disappointing.

The most cost-effective hotel in the whole trip, we booked a sea view room for more than 1,000 yuan, including buffet dinner and breakfast for two people, and the front desk also upgraded us to a sea view suite. The last public building designed by the Sri Lankan architect Geoffrey Bawa before his death was really surprising, like the upgraded version of the Jetway Lagoon Hotel in Negombo designed by him. The water from the fountain flows into the infinity pool, and in the distance are the waves of the Indian Ocean. If you are not a fan of Bawa, you will feel that this hotel is not exquisite, luxurious or modern enough.

The beach and pool are amazing. This is truly a blue water property.
The rooms are a bit average.

The cabinet in the room also contains the former tenant’s personal clothing.
Compared to years ago, it has become more vulgar and commercial.

It was a hotel by the sea where you can enjoy a resort feeling! The room was spacious and the food was delicious!
However, it was a pity that there were many scenes where the employees asked for tips when they knew they were Japanese.

This property may be quite old, but it is remarkably well maintained and full of charm. The buffet meals during all dining periods were excellent—delicious, varied, and truly great value for money. The staff were incredibly attentive and wonderfully friendly 😊. The pool and the surrounding area were simply fantastic—an oasis of relaxation. A heartfelt thank you to the front desk team for their warm welcome and care. And a very special thank you to Ms. Amali Roche—an exceptional Guest Relations Manager whose kindness and professionalism made our stay truly unforgettable 🙏.
