Overpriced. The hotel is nice but not worth the extra cost from all the nice Homestays around. The wifi didn't work properly, there were fluds akk the way up to the bedrooom when it rained.
Nice secluded resort in Unawatuna - devil of a drive up the windy passage but once you get there you are in peace.
No beach on-site but the wast infinity pool makes up for it.
Rooms are nicely setup and very functional
Fabulous place, I didn't expect to be this amazing, highly recommend to locals and tourist It's even in my list of favorite resort
Beautiful view.. great place to relax friendly staff.. breakfast buffet is fantastic.. but could recommend to have dinner from out or alcarte. Room are nice and clean..
The rooms are unbelievably amazing, very affordable with a great view. The pool overlooks the amazing Indian Ocean, the food is to die for especially if you’re visiting Unuwatuna for the seafood. All in all I was totally satisfied with the accomodation.
We stayed in the pavilion side and it was very disappointing we booked this room based on the pictures we saw online .. we’ll discard those images .. the furniture is very old and the bathrooms are unacceptable ..
As previous reviews have said, there is no beach here, no private beach.. the pics with beach chairs are very deceptive, since they are just placed on sand the hotel has prinkled in an area.. NO OCEAN ACCESS .
Our room was very dirty and had to be cleaned again right after we check in. The manager was very concerned by offered no compensation for our troubles here.
The lobby is the best part of this hotel.. I’d say save your money and stay elsewhere, plenty of good places on the beach for less
we booked this ocean view room thinking it would be nice.. well it wasn't.. rooms are gross, furniture is run down and the bathroom tiles are broken.. I would not stay here again.. and there is no sound proofing to the rooms.. there is a grate from the bathroom to the hall so you hear EVERYTHING GOING ON IN THE HALL AND THE ROOM NEXT DOOR
when we came the bedsheets were dirty, the floors were filthy and the staff was rude about it. I had to have the manager come and see for himself before they would clean this filthy room..
the staff cleaning the room were mad and kept giving me nasty looks, because they were caught.
fyi, there is NO BEACH HERE. they have some sand sprinkled on the concrete that does not connect to the ocean!
manager did nothing to help smooth over the problem, he did not offer any compensation or even a meal, just said sorry and had the guys clean the room.
4.5 stars. Nice hotel with one new and one older part. Friemdly and helpfull staff. We lived in the new part of the hotel with nice and lagre rooms and bathroms. Two pols where the new part has a dutiful infinity pool. 5 minute walk to the beach. 15 minute walk to the beautiful Jungle Beach. We never tried the hotel dinner, but the breakfast was good with omelette. Recommended by us, but the breakfast are could be cleaned between services and the floor at our room was a bit sticky by seawater. Smoking hotel is also a draw back when you are Europeean and not used to smoak in an confined backyard area.
Poor standard both in the ”deluxe room” and the overall management.
Had bad experience with the check-in although it was daytime, the staff at the reception gave empty promises and poor updates regarding our room status. In addition, the reception mislead with false information regarding room changes in order to prolong our check-in.
Electricity was shut down several times a day due to maintainance during high season, not only this there were building construction at this property during our stay. The housekeeping was sloppy as the bathroom zink and toilet were missed several times.
Furthermore any assistance was inconvenient as the rooms were not provided with phone for room service. The door locks were neither working properly as the mobile locks were inactivated and needed traditional key.
Personally, this hotel does not meet a four star standard as written thus in need of improvements to excel as a service provider within hospitality.
Closer to sea, however it is rocky and there is no beach. Need to walk approximately for 10 minutes to reach Unawatuna beach.
Hotel is new and architecture is nice and the view from room was nice. Those are the only plus points.
I felt it is over priced for the service provided. I experienced following issues during my stay:
a) hot water supply was not regular, even though I informed the staff, it was not rectified
b) there was no phone inside the room, had to go down to lobby for room service
c) staff lacks professionalism - Day 1: it was raining when I reached hotel and I had to go inside and ask for an umbrella Day 2 : I was woken up at 5.30 am one staff member knocking the door to ask whether I requested a towel
d) lift was not working
e) swimming pool was not clean
f) part of the hotel is still under construction - therefore it is noisy
Beautiful and secluded place on the beach, in southern Sri Lanka. Perfect small private beach, and not crowded
Quality accommodation. Friendly and willing workers. Small access to private beach. Nice private pool area. Good buffet menu
Great hotel and lovely staff. Location can be far if walking
Love this Place , been coming sense 2011.
This my friends and the margaritas fantastic!
Staff are very nice view fabbut hotel although clean feels neglected and shabby. While we were there a lot of building work was going on next door. Breakfast menu was a bit sparse but a la carte was good.
Amazing friendly staff. Very attentive and helpful for your needs. Rooms are spacious and clean. However, room design is not logical. TV is facing no where! Not at the bed nor the couch. Location of the AC is very poor and had to use the fan as well since it was really humid. (very small AC). Pool is very nice and my small one and also we really liked it. Food is fairly good but bit expensive. (Little bit under the value for money)
This place is so beautiful and clean! Best part of our vacation!
2 bedroom villa balcony has a room door directly facing it, 1 meter away. Very strange design, make you feel uncomfortable when the people in that room open their door. The pool area out back is very small and dirty. Staff was nice and pleasant though
Excellent. Supportive and friendly staff. Rooms are comfortable and neat. Delicious food. Beautiful sorounding and a nice private beach is available.
