We (a group of 10 friends) stayed at the hotel for 2 nights in mid December at the recommendation of our travel agent, Jetwing Tailormade because the Lighthouse was fully booked. However, having been to the Lighthouse to look around on our way to the Dutch Fort, we thought it’s a much better choice than the Lighthouse. We enjoyed our... More

I spent 3 days here as part of a wider tour of Sri Lanka for my honeymoon. (please see my profile for other Sri Lankan recommendations). The hotel is small (8 bedrooms) and as such each guest receives a high level of guest care. Ananda (the resident manager) and Ethan (guest relations) took time to chat to the guests and... More

This was our second-last stop on our trip and it was a perfect place to relax. It is very small and elegant. Service and food are first-class and there is a beautiful, narrow strip of golden sand beach which is accessed from a gate at the end of the property. The chef is excellent but, if you want breakfast on... More
