Everything This place is a little piece of paradise. It’s very comfortable and we slept wonderfully. The staff is amazing. It was so hard to leave that I even came back to spend one last weekend here at the end of my trip to Sri Lanka.

This was our best stay in Sri Lanka so far. Very attentive staff, rooms are new, huge, comfy and clean. During our stay, we decided to stay longer as we really liked it there. The bathroom is new and also there is a hot water which I consider as a huge plus. The design of the place is great, the garden is well maintained. The service is perfect and they even try to improve it. Breakfasts are local and very delicious, every day we ate something new. We are 100% recommending this place as it was very pleasant. Everything was perfect, no complaints :)

We initially booked this place for 3 nights, but ended up staying 6 — and we couldn’t have been happier with our decision! The accommodation was absolutely perfect: very clean, the beds are super comfortable, and located in a peaceful setting and a 5min walk to the beach. A special thank you to Priyantha, our host, who went above and beyond to make us feel welcome! He was always kind, attentive, and ready to help with anything we needed. His warm hospitality truly made a difference and made us feel right at home. If you're looking for a place that’s clean, relaxing, and hosted by someone who genuinely cares about your stay, this is it. We would gladly come back anytime. Highly recommended!

Very confortable and clean room. The owner was always ready to help (to rent motorbykes, to hire a tuk tuk drive…). At night time there was security. The breakfast is lovely. We stayed an extra night and got the room cleaned. Totally recommended!

    We had a wonderful one-night stay at this hotel. The white sandy beach is just a short 100m walk away, making it an ideal location. The rooms were very clean and decent, and the WiFi was super fast, perfect for staying connected. There are plenty of good restaurants nearby, adding to the convenience. Overall, a great place to stay at a reasonable price.

    Highlight of the hotel for me was the pool. It was a great size and very clean and well maintained. The hotel overall was spotless and the staff did everything to make our stay comfortable and memorable. The location was great for access to the beach and the best of the beachfront restaurants. Well worth a visit

    Location to the beach was brilliant, about a 30 minute stroll to uppuveli beach, where nice cheap restaurants can be found for both lunch and dinner. The view from the balcony over the sea is wonderful. The rooms were very clean and the bed was very comfortable. The staff were very friendly and helpful when planning excursions such as whale watching and Pigeon Island. They also organise tuk tuks where you get the most fantastic driver in Kumar, who will chat to you and offer to take you whenever you want to go (even at 5am).
