This was our first stop on arrival in Sri Lanka and it didn’t disappoint. The staff are wonderful, the food was gorgeous and the setting by the lake was idyllic. The rooms are comfortable, clean and have high ceilings and views of the lake. Altogether a great start to our holiday.

Lovely hotel. Staff were very courteous and helpful. Excellent Sri Lankan style food, cold beers, and beautiful grounds and lovely swimming pool. Rooms were spacious, clean and had AC and a fan. Thoroughly recommend it.

Charged more than Expedia gave us when we booked the place That was unacceptable but I paid a s the staff at that place had nothing to do with it I do not think the company that runs the place is genuine in the price they gave me I feel I was overcharged by the local company that runs the property
