Amazing Villa with a great Rooftop Restaurant ”
Fantastic villa in Unawatuna. We selected the room with plunge pool. Unfortunately the AC didn't work ( Good lesson to hotels to check ACs before handover rooms to guests) and we had to switch to the other room which having the direct access to the main pool (Both rooms are in Ground floor). It was not bad either. The best place is the rooftop restaurant. Amazing views and you can spend hours. It's a peaceful, nice villa situated in a vantage position. Breakfast service was not good as we got food dish by dish in a very random manner. So had to wait for almost 2 hours to finish the breakfast. Anyway 5 star rating as overall experience is amazing!

Lovely stay”
We stayed in the penthouse and the luxury suite for our honeymoon on our stay here. The penthouse was beautiful although the air con didn’t work properly nor did the jacuzzi. The luxury suite was also lovely but again, the jacuzzi bath didn’t work. There are 2 pool areas and the staff will give free tuk tuk rides down the big hill to the shops/beach areas. Overall, a great stay here!

GREAT FOR A FAMILY WITH YOUNG CHILDREN!”
We got a room with direct access to pool. the children loved playing in the pool to the maximum. calm & quiet setting with minimal disturbance from others. Clean & spacious room with nice room decor & necessary amenities. very supportive staff extending the true Sri Lankan aspiration. the food cuisine tantalizing the taste buds & instilled with Sri Lankan flavors. the top floor restaurant is a must visit, to enjoy your food long with eye- catching beauty of down-south of Sri Lanka.

Beautiful hotel”
We enjoyed our stay overall and our room was lovely. Amazing views from our balcony. Didn’t quite meet 5 star expectations with the hot water barely working during our two nights. We were disappointed on check out that there was apparently no tuk tuk driver available to take us and our bags down to town, as we timed our departure to be during their one hour of morning shuttle service. Very steep hill to reach hotel.

The worst customer care service. Great rooms. Good food”
Cons: Customer care service is the worst. Except for few of the reception staff, most of the customer care was the worst we have seen. It took 3 hours to get a bucket of ice. We didn’t get to use the pool from the direct pool entrance room we booked since it was cleaning. It took almost an hour to clear our bill. They wont care for local guests. Giving top priority to foreigners. Very bad attitude of one lady who works at the front office. Pros: Breakfast buffet was great. Had a good collection of all types of food. Fresh and tasty. Nothing to complain abt food. Location and rooms were clean and good no issues.

Very meh”
If they hadn't thrust a mandatory $75 dinner on new year's eve it would've been a different review. If they hadn't then said $75 per the head. Then they said it's exclusive of alcohol. Then they said we couldn't bring our own. All the maintenance and cleanliness issues which plenty of people have already pointed out would've been only inconveniences had they not essentially forced us to check out on new year's eve. Tl;dr for the price you pay you'll have to bear many inconveniences. Staff are generally nice though.

Not a pleasant stay”
There are more con than pro . The rooms offered to us was dirty and request for another room . On second day there was no water supply to the rooms . So we have to make do without water . Pros is that the staffs are very helpful but very inexperience to handle our request . The morning breakfast is average with limited choices .

Dirty hotel”
Had booked this hotel for a few nights with my husband. We arrived and the room was dirty, there was dirt and grime everywhere. Bedding was dirty and looked used. The plug sockets weren't working the bathroom was horrible so we asked for the room to be changed. Was upgraded to another room but that was even worse. Switched on the jacuzzi and black stuff kept floating out the water so couldn't use it. Only slept the night and decided to leave the next day and was going to book a different hotel but the hotel staff were keen to please us and moved us to their sister hotel instead- jungle villa - which was by far a much better experience.

Poorly maintained”
There was no hot water in bathroom/showers. The ac seems to be not properly cooling. There were some dirt marks in bed-sheet. The immediate feeling we got was that this place was poorly maintained. Although there was a great views of the sea, it is quite far from the hotel and not what you expect. Only good thing was the breakfast and the staff were polite and friendly.

Shattered birthday getaway ”
It was a preplanned birthday getaway which was booked months in advance. We read reviews and carefully booked this hotel, but we only noticed it all was a big deceiving lie after arrival in to the location. It was just so sad and we were so helpless and we decided to write this somehow later because we didn't want to ruin what we had planned on the day. it was just unbareable and regretful . This hotel is not 5 star rated , its barely not even 3 star. Firstly, when we arrived at location to check in staff didn't make a notice of the prevailing birthday occasion (simply no clue even after informed) also no one to assist getting luggages to room (extremely short staffed. After we checked in, we noticed so many damages (broken switches ,cracked wash basin, leaking water from shower unit and broken parts with Jacuzzi) We informed about half the lights in room was not working and it was never fixed right for the entire stay and we were kept in dark. Also very poor breakfast

Acceptable”
The hotel is built in a nnice location with a great investment and a heavenly concept. However, it has been poorly maintained. There was no generator, elevator was out of order, No buffet. They had even changed our room preference to a lower grade. The room was not ready even by 02.30pm. So we had to wait until the room was ready. Staff was also unprofessional.
