The hotel is a relaxing, peaceful place, you can stay with children, but there are big waves in the ocean. The pool is comfortable. The food is normal, do not wake up hungry, it is better to take everything included as the food on the street is expensive. Do not be afraid to buy excursions on the beach near the hotel, cheaper and will not deceive. The rooms were average, we only came to sleep, the dampness is present because there is an ocean on one side and a river on the other. Take an air freshener with you, it will smell nicer. Take mosquito repellents with you in the evening. They will come in handy. cleaning every day, for a small tip of 100-200 (for rubles it's 30-60), the staff will try very hard and your vacation will be great. Our family did not regret choosing this hotel, a lot depends on how you feel about your vacation!
We are staying at this hotel at the moment. Of the advantages, the territory , you can walk, the beach is beautiful, almost deserted , but there is a lot of garbage.
The hotel has been in need of renovation for a long time. The room stock is no different from the word at all, I'm not talking about moisture, because this is normal here.
Everything is very dirty in the room (206) For 100 rupees they will make swans, put flowers on the bed, but they will not clean it. I attached a photo of the towels that were changed for us in the morning. One for the face, the other for the body.
Among the entertainment there is table tennis , a volleyball court, and music in the evening. A place for older people who like a very very very very relaxing holiday, young people will be very bored here .
The food is without frills, the menu is monotonous, but you will not stay hungry.
There is no desire to return to this hotel.
We had a rest with a friend from March 2 to March 14.
The territory of the hotel is large, very beautiful, clean.
The staff is friendly and helpful. When we checked in, there was no refrigerator and large towels in the room. At the first request, they brought it. The towels are normal, changed about once every 4 days.
We lived in a bungalow overlooking the river. Number 417. Yes, the rooms were tired, but nothing was flowing, the bathroom was working, the air conditioner was working. The bed linen is really old, stained somewhere. But it is clean, but the smell of dampness and humidity was present from the pillows, mattress. There's probably no other way. You just don't need to open the balcony and turn off the air conditioner. We read the reviews in advance and took our underwear with us, which would be nice to leave there. But I agree with the opinion that you need to understand where you are going. This is Asia and there will be no luxury rooms here. We only came to the room to wash and sleep😁
✅The food is decent and varied. From fruits-pineapple, watermelon, papaya. We went out into the city, bought mangosteen, mango, and soda. I highly recommend these fruits!
Seafood-fish every day, sometimes squid. Ice cream for lunch and dinner always. Last year we were at the oak ray haridra beach 4* hotel, where they gave shrimps and squid in different sauces and dishes every day. There were mangoes too. Of course, I saw a small disadvantage in this. By the way, I advise you to consider the above hotel for those who value comfort. There are good cosmetic repairs and bed linen. But it is more remote from the city.
The beach and the ocean are magical. You will immediately forget about your number.
The water is warm, clean, and there are no jellyfish. But waves are always, consider this. This is not suitable for everyone. We were getting high.
No one bit us. At night, they turned on the raptor (they brought it with them). Sometimes they forgot and were not bitten anyway.
We took excursions to Galle and Sigiriya. It is better to go to Galle Fort on your own. About 30 minutes from the hotel. Unnecessary visits to the shops of stones, teas, wood, herbs at exorbitant prices. And so for every excursion, But it's better to go to Sigiriya with an excursion, it's far enough to go.
We took a safari along the local river, it was very beautiful. Monkeys, crocodiles.
✅The Internet is only available in the reception area and at the bar. They say it catches in two-storey complexes. He didn't catch it with us. The SIM card was not taken. It was enough for us to sit for an hour on the phone at the bar in the evening.
In general, everything is very cool, this is not the first time we have been to Sri Lanka and we are returning here, as we have grown very fond of this island, its nature and the ocean. And the number of rooms does not matter at all😉
