"The property is lovely, at least on the outside. The pool is great, and the access to the beach is a plus, even if there's not really any sand to lie on. However, our stay was marred by a complete lack of hospitality. When we arrived (at the time we told them we would) the only member of staff there was the cleaner who pointed us in the direction of our room. The following day the owner's son did turn up, but only to demand payment. The room itself showed a lack of attention to detail, in odd contrast to the exterior of the hotel. We didn't have any curtains (despite there being a curtain rail) and the mosquito net over the bed was the wrong size so dragged over our faces (we had to remove it). Oh, and the toilet is literally in the shower. Bizarre. At no point were we offered breakfast, or even water. We had to go to the local supermarket (thankfully very good) to obtain these. All in all, we would not stay here again. "

"We stayed just for one night. The family is super nice and we had the first floor to ourselves. The room was big and clean. The bathroom was outside the room but just for our use. The breakfast was delicious. The host asked us what we wanted and we said Sri Lankan breakfast. Dhal curry and stringhoppers were amazing, we also had a lot of fruit and tea. The only negative is it's location. Is 2km from Matara bus station and 1km from a small local beach."

"The hotel is brand new hotel and only opened less then a year ago. It look exactly as it is shown on the pictures. Upon arrival we were greeted by Chirat and a special welcome drink made of fresh fruit. Throughout our stay he was very helpful and even helped organize things for me that he didn't strictly have to do however it made my life that much easier which I appreciated. The hotel is sparkly clean with a direct route from the property to the the cleanest nicest beach in Sri Lanka. It is also in an area which is not the main tourist beach therefore it is very quiet and peaceful. There is a restaurant in the hotel which serves yummy food at a reasonable price. Just know the food takes about an hour to get ready as they make the food fresh based on your order. Breakfast is really nice with a fresh fruit platter and you can choose Sri Lankan or Western breakfast. Over my experience was incredible and I would highly recommend the hotel. "
