Wake up to the sound of the waves
The hotel is ina quiet part of Unawatuna. You wake to the sound of the waves. Peacocks and moneys are all around. The pool is lovely and restaurant has good food/ drinks and service. The reception staff were fabulous and took care of all my needs.

Enjoyed my stay. The staff are very attentive and friendly. The hotel itself is nice but the rooms are a bit dated. I would consider this a 4 not 5 star hotel.
Special shout-out to Subhadra who was fantastic from housekeeping my entire staff. Definitely a highlight.
Would recommend this hotel.

Great hotel but not 5*
The hotel itself is lovely and the staff are extremely attentive and friendly.
The pool is great and there is a free shuttle to the beach.
However the room is quite shabby and dated, the bathroom is more that of a 3 star hotel definitely not 5*
Could do with a deep clean!
Beds were comfortable

My boy likes the food a lot including breakfast and dinner. Room is big and view is great. People are friendly and helpful. They helped bring luggages and even our shoes back to the room. Lovely and quiet place for vacation. Hope I can come back next time!

The room was fabulous.. the staff were attentive and helpful..specially the main holder gentlemen that was managing the reception. The property is away from the happening main street which is good if you wanted to have a good night sleep. Unfortunately the first night was the opening night for they restaurant next door and the opening party was very loud but we stayed a few more days in the hotel and the flowing nights were quiet and peaceful.. I would recommend this hotel and Unawatuna to everyone..

Amazing view and Comfort to the maximum!
It seems like a recently opened hotel, with some little improvements, we had a wonderful stay and would highly recommend the hotel. Stunning view of the pool and the sea with a beautiful sun set. Private beach was a added advantage where you can just lay on the beach beds with no disturbance in complete privacy, which you dont get in the public beach in Unawatuna. Loved our stay and will definitely return!

Poor
This hotel is dated and not like the pictures. -the breakfast is good and staff are nice but otherwise I’d avoid. Our door lock broke and despite advising reception of the issue they failed to fix it and we had to put a chair against the door all night - wasn’t dealt with prior to check out. Dirty dated hotel

Roshan est tres efficace et professionnel
La direction vient voir les clients
Les réceptionnistes sont souriantes et toujours élégantes.

Les rideaux des chambres se sont assez occultants.

Flott hotel!
Flott hotell med meget hjelpsom personell og fine rom. Meget god mat og generelt god service.
Litt vanskeligheter å få ordnet ting da det gjerne måtte si fra et par ganger før alt ble riktig, men det var ingen større feil. Kun litt feil med håndklær og slikt. Totalt sett et flott hotel med god beliggenhet.

It's marketed as a five star property but it's not quite there. More like a good western standard four star property. I would recommend this property in Unawatuna.
Pros:
Good location (a little bit away from the noisy part of Unatuwana) , spacious rooms and decent food.
"Cons":
The level of house cleaning varied.

The property was lovely -.the staff are excellent at customer service. The beach is very small and it’s mainly a rocky peak in front of the hotel but it’s not far to walk to the main beach. The food is very good snd you felt nothing was too much trouble. The fact it has a gym was a winner for me- some new equipment and stronger air con would make this even better
