Really good stay
comfortable suiteamazing viewgreat foodbusy gym
I stayed in a club suite sea view and it was comfortable. The views of the garden over the beach were amazing (i loved the sea view). The food in the main restaurant had a great variety of choices. The gardening staff does a great job keeping the grounds looking fantastic.
The gym was sometimes busy. There were a few times i had to wait for a treadmill. I think they should have more space dedicated to it. More equipment would solve that.
Service
9/10
The staff offered a warm welcome and excellent care throughout my stay. Kushani was always on hand to. Dumindu escorted me to the suite and made sure everything met my expectations.
Location
8/10
The hotel boasted beautifully designed grounds, maintained true to Geoffrey Bawa's original design. A tour, led by the informed manager Shrimal, highlighted the architectural details.
