Everything. The staff were kind and courteous but not overbearing, the room was lovely - really comfortable and well set up with a beautiful ocean view. The food was excellent and the location was perfect.

It has own beach. The location was good, ten minutes to Galle and fifty minutes to Mirissa by driving
The breakfast was poor unfortunately
7 / 10Good·Jun 2026
Perfect location with your own beach
Front desk staff could do better with their attire! Not appealing at welcome
Bathroom had strong order from pipes.
6 / 10Average·Jun 2026
The staff remained polite and accommodating during my stay and I appreciated being offered a late check-out, which helped with my airport transfer plans. The room was spacious and comfortable overall and the resort has potential for a relaxing stay.
There were a few maintenance and dining issues that affected my experience. The bathroom had an unpleasant smell during the stay and required maintenance visits more than once. Cleaning improved it temporarily as the smell of cleaner overpowered it but the issue returned. I also experienced repeated problems with the jacuzzi not functioning properly and eventually stopped trying to use it.
The breakfast and dinner arrangements were more limited than expected as they operate on fixed menus rather than buffet service. Personally, I would recommend checking the menu beforehand and considering ordering separately rather than automatically choosing breakfast or half board.
I also found the repeated promotion of the independent massage service uncomfortable and would have preferred a less direct approach, allowing guests to enquire if interested rather than being approached multiple times. The resort could do with asking the gentleman to not be pushy and tonnot invade personal space especially if it's a solo female guest. He frequently remained poolside while i was in my private plunge pool.
