The place is right on the seaside, the beach is right outside the door, and the swimming pool is big enough. I like it. The service is very good, but the facilities are very old, which is about the same level as domestic guesthouses, or even worse.

Хороший отель совсем рядом с океаном. Удобные кровати, чистое белье. Персонал быстро реагирует на просьбы. Вкусная еда с великолепным видом. Океан спокойный, камней немного, я плавала без специальной обуви. В бассейне надо быть осторожнее - каждый раз резали ноги и руки об острые края плитки. На пляже водитель тук-тука Чаминда отвезет на самые интересные места, покажет, подскажет и сэкономит ваше время.

Great place, delicious meals and even the hospitality was great. The rooms and the other facilities including the swimming pool were well maintained. They didn't have a specific menu but were willing to cook any meal we wanted and I'm not just talking about the Sri Lankan cuisine.

The hotel is located in a quiet location, 300 meters from the public beach, there are stones at the entrance to the water. We lived on the 2nd floor, the room had a TV and air conditioning. fan, excellent Wi-Fi, double bed, linen change and cleaning on request without any problems. 2 large towels per person, shower gel and shampoo are provided. We took food from BB, continental breakfast: sausages, scrambled eggs, stewed vegetables, toast, butter, jam, sliced ​​fruit, freshly squeezed juice. coffee, tea, everything is freshly prepared in front of you. The hotel has a clean swimming pool 20-25 meters long, open, so you can swim in the evening. The hotel staff is friendly, efficient, no problems. The hotel manager is a great guy, ready to help with any issue, such as accommodation, excursions, etc., for which respect to him. I definitely recommend the hotel.

We decided to go on a trip immediately within an hour, booked the most budget option with a more or less normal rating on a last-minute tour, without going into details. The most significant disadvantage, as it turned out, was the road from Colombo airport, which took 4.5 hours. Therefore, the advice is either to fly to Mattala airport, or it is best to take a private transfer to the hotel. The hotel is located in a quiet location, next to the beach. If the purpose of your trip is to travel, to see the country, if you, like us, love different holiday locations, different beaches, then this option is quite normal if you know some of the nuances and correctly balance price and quality. On the beach next to the hotel we got bored on the second day. Therefore, we took a tuk-tuk to the nearest beaches - Mirissa (excellent infrastructure, big waves, I recommend for active recreation), Talalla (on the contrary, a secluded beach, a huge sandy beach strip, a couple of beach cafes, there are also waves), Unawatuna (an excellent beach without large waves have good infrastructure, but it seemed to me very noisy and crowded) The biggest advantage of the hotel is the staff, they treat you like the most valuable guest, they try to please and solve any of your questions. Romal surrounded us with care from the very first day, helping us with almost everything. He organized a return transfer for us at a reasonable price, fulfilled our small requests (we constantly went to the supermarket, then to the beaches, then on excursions, recommended an inexpensive store with tea, we stocked up great there and it was inexpensive) The food at the hotel was quite tolerable, simpler breakfasts, dinners better. Dinners are not a buffet, there is a choice of 5 types of menu. The rooms are simple but clean, I liked the large balcony with the necessary furniture. I would also like to note the presence of a normal air conditioner and ceiling fan. There is a good swimming pool. The disadvantage for us was the distance from the supermarket and any shops. At the time of our stay, Russian tourists began to actively come, the main contingent of vacationers being Russians. The result is an excellent budget hotel, but it depends on what purpose you are traveling for and keep in mind the nuance regarding transfer from Colombo

My husband and I rested in this hotel. The hotel is located in the suburbs of Matara, about 10 minutes by tuk tuk from the city itself. The hotel has well-groomed grounds, a beautiful swimming pool with clean water, and thanks to the smiling D. Sam for that. Breakfast overlooking the ocean. We ate everything in the hotel restaurant very tasty! We bought shrimp, the hotel chef prepared tuna for a fee. The rooms are spacious with a large balcony overlooking the garden. The room has air conditioning, a ceiling fan, a TV (though it was never turned on), an electric kettle, tea bags, coffee, cream. Two bottles of water every day. Cleaning upon request if you leave the key at the reception and tell them to clean up. Many thanks to all the hotel team, especially the manager Ramal! Upon arrival, I immediately connected Wi-Fi (by the way, Wi-Fi is not only in the room and on the shore) Any question, any whim of Ramal !!!He will explain everything and tell you how to get there and where it’s best! In general, I recommend the hotel!
