The was as advertised, however the restaurant and menu certainly were not 5 star. I complained to the manager regarding the lack of wine available with meals and lack of choice. This was escalated to the chairman. After much to and fro it was agreed I would receive a refund of two nights as we left early due to lack of choice and general incompetence. This refund was promised within 15 days on my payment card. Needless to say no refund and no reply to my enquiry. Their email system was also hacked. Not impressed and would not recommend. Very disappointed and not 4 star

We arrived in the evening, we wanted to eat dinner around 8pm, the staff took our order and then told us that they didn't have any food they could serve us.

Some employees had gotten in a physical altercations, they was injuries and the police was called.

Due to the unsafe nature of the staffs actions and the lack of food on the property. We packed our bags just a couple hours into our 2 night stay and went to the Sheraton down the road.

The staff told us when we left the nights would be refunded due to the issues, however they still have not.

nothing to do nearby

new polished hotel with great shower, located in induruwa, no much activities, beach was too rough to swim, and too narrow to place sun beds for sun tan on the beach. Breakfast was very good in taste and portion. Staffs seriously needs some english course, specially front desk and waiter.

This is a very nice hotel and we were extremely well looked after by the attentive staff. The hotel sits just back from the beach and all 28 spacious and comfortable rooms look out over the lovely pool and garden to the ocean. The hotel is in a very quiet location but is surrounded by the turtle beaches and is not far from the Wadu River. It is ideal for those wanting a couple of days of rest and relaxation at the end of a tour of Sri Lanka or for those wanting a longer period of pampering. Breakfast and dinner on the terrace are lovely and the food is excellent.

The view from rooms is excellent, and the service and food was good as well. The weak part is that they dont have any presence on the beach in terns of beach beds, umbrellas or even a drinks service.

You cannot see the ocean from the pool and dining area as well. It is indeed value for money if you want to stay only and travel to nearby beaches for relaxation.

Hotel is clean, staff are friendly and passionate, pool is amazing, they also have access to the beach directly and no one really goes there so it felt like a private beach for us. There are a few sea turtle conservatory nearby so we also got to experience some interactions with the sea turtles. This hotel is truest a hidden gem, great value for the price. We had lunch here from the A la Carte menus and it pretty decent. Also tried their spa, they usually only having 1 masseuse available at the hotel, but when we told them that we really wanted to have the massage together at the same time, the masseuse called up extra help and made it happen for us. Highly recommend this hotel to anyone who wants to stay around this area.

This Hotel really is A hidden jewel. All The rooms have A seaview and the beach is really beautiful. The staff is really friendly and helpful. The breakfast offers A big variety of everything even for A vegan. The Hotel is A boutique kind of because there is only 28 rooms. I loved The interiors with turqoise color. You really feel A special guest. There are several turtle hatcheries close by, so you get to reliese them to The sea If you want.
