However, on arrival we discovered that it doesn't have a pool - they just kept referring to a 'natural swimming area' i.e. the sea. It's also quite a run down and generally depressing place. We ended up cancelling 2 of our 3 nights and moving to another hotel first thing in the morning. I can't say much about the location as we didn't stay long enough to explore it. ##### Chloe Stayed 1 night in Sep 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Chris Oct 4, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### Lovely staff, great food, not far from Unawatuna Staff were absolutely amazing, very accommodating, very friendly. We were the only people staying at the hotel at the time as it was quiet season so was nice to have the place to ourselves. Staff couldn't have done more to make us feel at ease. We turned up with fish we had caught that day on a fishing trip and they were more than happy to cook them for us in that evening. Food was really good and proper Sri Lanka breakfast was delicious. Hotel is in perfect distance for the rope swing (there is a cheaper one 300 rupees pp to the South of the hotel still with the ideallic and background view). Bus to Unawatuna is easy to catch and about a 2 minute walk from hotel, otherwise Unawatuna beach is around 40 minute walk. Couple of other restaurants and hotels around. Beach outside hotel is nice but not really for sunbathing and chilling on. Bed was quite hard and uncomfortable. Room quite basic. ##### Chris Stayed 1 night in Sep 2018 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotels in Las Vegas](https://www.expedia.ca/Harry-Reid-Intl-Airport-Hotels.0-aLAS-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hampton Inn by Hilton Sydney](https://www.expedia.ca/Membertou-Hotels-Hampton-Inn-By-Hilton-Sydney-Nova-Scotia.h4905064.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Riu Palace Pacifico - Adults Only - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Nuevo-Vallarta-Hotels-Riu-Palace-Pacifico-Adults-Only-All-Inclusive.h1928037.Hotel-Information) > > [Weligama Bay Marriott Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Weligama-Hotels-Weligama-Bay-Marriott-Resort-Spa.h19413442.Hotel-Information) > > [Weligama Bay Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Weligama-Hotels-Weligama-Bay-Resort.h1487820.Hotel-Information) > > [Fox Jaffna by Fox Resorts – Boutique Heritage Luxury](https://www.expedia.ca/Jaffna-Hotels-FOX-JAFFNA-By-Fox-Resorts.h17399149.Hotel-Information) > > [All Inclusive Resorts and Hotels in Turks and Caicos](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-Turks-And-Caicos-All-Inclusive-Hotel.0-0-d184-tAllInclusiveHotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Travelway Inn Sudbury](https://www.expedia.ca/Sudbury-Hotels-Travelway-Inn-Sudbury.h36851.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Kaslo](https://www.expedia.ca/Kaslo-Hotels.d6348594.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Shangri-La Hambantota](https://www.expedia.ca/Hambantota-Hotels-Shangri-La-Hambantota.h15083331.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Riu Sri Lanka - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Ahungalla-Hotels-Hotel-Riu-Sri-Lanka-All-Inclusive.h14754284.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Toronto - North York by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Toronto-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Toronto-North-York.h34380.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Palm Springs](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels.d180676.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Sandals Grenada - ALL INCLUSIVE Couples Only](https://www.expedia.ca/St-Georges-Hotels-Sandals-Grenada-ALL-INCLUSIVE-Couples-Only.h919960.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Winnipeg (YWG) to Ajnala (ATQ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/ywg/atq/winnipeg-to-sri-guru-ram-das-ji-intl-airport) > > [Flights from Calgary (YYC) to Mazatlán (MZT)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyc/mzt/calgary-to-mazatlan) > > [Flights from Edmonton International Airport (YEG) to Dorval (YUL)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yeg/yul/edmonton-to-montreal) > > [Flights from Ottawa (YOW) to Charlottetown (YYG)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yow/yyg/ottawa-to-charlottetown) > > [Flights from Mississauga (YYZ) to West Lebanon (LEB)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/leb/toronto-to-lebanon) > > [Flights from Ottawa, ON (YOW-Macdonald-Cartier Intl.) to New York, NY (NYC-All Airports)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yow/nyc/ottawa-to-new-york) > > [Flights from Jamaica (JFK) to Jeddah (JED)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/jfk/jed/new-york-to-jeddah) > > [Flights from Richmond (YVR) to Edmonton International Airport (YEG)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/yeg/vancouver-to-edmonton) ### Cars ### Activities ### Packages ### Vacation Rentals ### General
