In the greenery, lakeside. Helpful staff.

AC is not working properly, no fridge in the room. No shower tube.

Janika our host was fantastic. Anything we needed no ask was too big or small. Our Safari was unforgettable and our guide knew where all the animals were. Chef made one of the best club sandwiches I’ve ever had an overall everything was just wonderful. It really was a highlight about trip to Sri Lanka.

Family-feel. Umesh & staff are there for each individual guest, you’re not one of many. Loved our stay!

10.0

Umesh & staff were fantastic, welcomed us in very late and immediately got us settled and fed. What made dinner even better was him bringing over the two new pups, one of which he allowed us to name. Welcoming, little Lola <3 Umesh arranged everything we needed for the safari the next day, had a breakfast for us all packed for the morning. He was even kind enough to keep the shower of the room we had been in the night before open for us when we returned later that day so we could freshen before heading to our next destination.

It’s no thrills, but doesn’t exactly what you need it to do with great hospitality.
