The pool is round the back but didn't use it. Breakfast was good. It was quiet season so think we were the only ones staying so unfair to judge too harshly. There was a wasp nest a few metres from the room but didn't worry us as it is Sri Lanka after all. Staff were very friendly. ##### Jamie Stayed 1 night in Nov 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Steffen Jul 26, 2025 Liked: Amenities Disliked: Cleanliness Waste at the pool, dirty sun loungers, construction work.

While this hotel is new and has good sized Family Rooms with balconies, service and other facilities are mediocre. Staff are unorganised, pool was not very clean, had to ask for wifi and tv to be fixed. On checkout, was told ‘card machine was not working’ - and we would have to pay in cash. This is a common ‘scam’ in Sri Lanka - the hotel wants to avoid the card fees from the bank, which I do understand. Overall an ‘ok’ stay but not great. ##### Damian Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Shannon Jul 20, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Wonderful staff and very accommodating. Rooms are clean and the pool was well maintained. Great for families with kids since it is a brief walk from the Main Street in Arugambay. ##### Shannon Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Robert Jan 18, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Amazing stay, Ariff is very helpful with everything!
