Really good Beachfront Getaway

beautiful beachwarm seadesireable spotfriendly attendant
The hotel sits directly on a beautiful beach, I noted. The sea was wonderfully warm (the warmest I have ever felt!). I appreciated Rupan, the pool attendant. He ensured everyone got the spots they desired each day.
The only minor issue was the distance from Colombo airport. The taxi ride took about five and a half hours, I found.

mixed feelings about this place

fine locationsafety hazardpoor cleanliness
the location was fine and easily accessible to the beach.
The room was not very clean, especially considering the price (i expect better for what they charge). the stairs in the room were a safety hazard. I actually fell and hurt myself pretty badly. the staff needs more training, especially the managers, on how to handle guest issues.

Excellent Beachfront Hotel Experience

friendly staffbeachfront locationdirect accesslimited wi-fi
The hotel staff proved friendly and helpful, which enhanced the entire experience. The pool's beachfront location is fine. I enjoyed direct beach access from my room, and also attended the yoga sessions each morning (what a great way to start the day!).
The Wi-Fi was available only in public areas. This was not ideal given the room rate, and I hope they extend coverage to guest rooms soon.
