    “The villa and the property were absolutely fantastic. The design and space really set the place apart from other locations. The breakfast and restaurant in general were high quality, and you had both local and continental options for food. Staff was really helpful and kind. We'll especially have to thank the Assistant Manager at the villa, Mr. Sameera. The staff takes care of your needs and help you on your whole stay in Sri Lanka, not just the hotel related matters.”

  • Samira is a fantastic manager and ensured our stay was perfect from start to finish
