    attentive service
    check-in delay

    great ambiance but minor check-in hiccup

    The serenity of the location offered an unbeatable escape from daily life. I loved lounging by the infinity pool, with stunning views of the ocean as a backdrop. The service from the staff was incredible. they were attentive and genuinely cared about our comfort. the sea view from my Deluxe Twin Room was a spectacular feature that added to the overall experience.

    The check-in process could be smoother.

    great stay with stunning views

    One of the standout features of our stay was the exceptional service provided by the staff. They were genuinely caring and attentive throughout our time there, making every moment feel special. The sea view from our Deluxe Suite was magnificent. waking up to that sight was truly refreshing and set the tone for our relaxing days.

    The check-in process could use some improvement.

    infinity pool
    friendly staff
    tasty food
    small room

    Stunning views and nice vibes!

    The infinity pool overlooking the ocean was an absolute highlight. The staff was super friendly, and they really made us feel at home. Food was tasty, we sampled some local dishes. A bit of a bummer that the room was kind of small, but overall we loved the atmosphere!

    genuine hospitality

    Recommend it for families seeking tranquility

    The hospitality was unmatched, like every staff member cared for our experience. We enjoyed the complimentary afternoon tea, and while lounging by the beautiful infinity pool, we found ourselves reminiscing about our best family moments, which felt so right in the serene atmosphere.

    It wasn't the most economical option we could find but considering the value, it was acceptable.

    turtle nesting
    great pool
    family friendly
    teen activities

    Our family had a fantastic time exploring nearby Kosgoda, a turtle nesting beach that the kids loved! The hotel had such a stunning pool area that felt like it floated over the ocean. Our rooms were clean and spacious, truly a great family setting.

    My children wished for more activities for teens.

    complimentary afternoon tea

    It was just a great match for a two-day stay in Balapitiya with value for money. I particularly enjoyed the complimentary afternoon tea, which added a lovely touch to our afternoons. Make sure to explore the infinity pool early in the morning to enjoy some quiet time.

    exceptional food

    Recommend it for couples seeking tranquility

    This place is a real gem, the food was exceptional, and I ate dinner there almost every night. One night, we asked for a simple salad and pasta, and they nailed it,, everything was fresh and done right!

    It wasn’t cheap, but for what you get, it feels justified.

    spacious room
    high quality furnishings
    breathtaking view

    The Deluxe Suite with Sea View was super spacious with a four-poster bed and an amazing view. Everything felt high quality, and the bathroom was huge and modern. Water in glass bottles was a nice eco-friendly touch. The room was clean and comfortable, perfect for unwinding. Also loved the access to the garden and pool right outside. And honestly, the sunsets from the room were breathtaking!
