I had a pleasant stay at the hotel in a tranquil setting surrounded by greenery, just off the main street providing convenience while offering a peaceful retreat. The service was attentive, but there were some issues with pricing knowledge. The dining experience was mixed with delicious options but repeated choices. The rooms were comfortable but lacked real views as they were in a separate building.

The service was excellent, with friendly and attentive staff. The location was excellent, just a short walk from the beautiful Unawatuna beach.
