We had an amazing 2 day stay. Place was gorgeous, with 5 star rooms and service. Food was also great with more options than you could think of. If you’re looking for extra activities, there is a spa and a list of water activities to do at the beach or on the river. Definitely recommend

We arrived at the hotel late at night, but was greeted with a great surprise that our room was upgraded to a corner suite! (as other rooms were fully booked on that day) The view from the room was fantastic with river, pools, sea views on the both sides. Also there were Dilmar tea prepared in the room which we enjoyed so much during our stay! The highlight for me was the breakfast - the restaurant was so beautiful, and the food was amazing with lots of Sri Lankan and other food options! Very accessible to the peaceful beach and we enjoyed the sunset on the beach bed too. I would really love to stay longer in this resort, so would definitely be back soon!

The resort was good and enjoyed the stay overall. Nice view of the sea. But service was not up to mark. The operator will not respond promptly. House keeping took long time to provide service. On some days even water bottles were not available and we had to ask for. Food was okay.

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Well designed buildings and particularly beautiful and large bar area. The room (luxury seafront) was spacious and well furnished, with the housekeeping team providing a great service. A few niggles regarding other service levels and amenities, though (given that it’s a 5 star hotel): - No regular drinks waiter service at the beach - No regular drinks waiter service around the pool areas - We asked a pool bar man who happened to be passing by our loungers if he would bring us the drinks menu, he said ‘yes’ and that was the last we saw of him - Once phoned front desk from the room but it just kept on ringing with no answer The spa was superb, even though the prices are the same as in the UK. Generally, the prices of food and drink are very high which probably explains why the main bar and restaurants were pitifully empty every night we were there.

The hotel was fantastic. The wee gift they gave my son was a lovely gesture and very much appreciated. The only small problems was that we didn't sleep very well due to the noise of the trains from early in the morning. Perhaps ask for a room at the other side of the hotel to avoid this. would possibly have liked if the staff in the dining hall had explained where everything was as it's such a vast area. Although they were very busy so that may explain why the didn't. overall a wonderful hotel and we actually wanted to stay an extra night.
