The hotel is located right on the beach in a great location but thats where it ends. The hotel is tired and dirty. The rooms are shabby and the bathrooms a health hazard. There is a mediocre restaurant located on the beach. The hotel is mosquito infested. More

Maybe I was lucky. I just turned up and got a beach-front room (108) on the ground floor with double doors which opened onto a small terrace and the beach. I stayed for two nights in January 2012. The room had a good AC unit and was clean and comfortable. The bathroom was clean and new and the shower was... More

Stay away. Big gap between the website photos and reality. It's a good value only if you're paying under 50 USD and it's a brief stopover. They promised 75 but tried to raise the price once I got there. No hot water! And filthy! Needless to say, I moved out the very next morning. Luckily, The Icebear was next door. More

I concur with the previous review, the pool & terrace area is finished & quite a pleasant place to spend an evening. The wifi is also up & running. I was part of a group on a 2 week tour that started & finished at this hotel. The rooms are inconsistent, some have been recently refurbed & are reasonably equiped,... More

The last night of my trip I spent here. I really enjoyed the pool which was directly next to the balcony -very easy to jump in :-)- The maritim design is really nice and it is very clean. Most of the stuff are professional but some tried to flirt with me (what I didn't like!)....The cocktails are quite good...food okay-not... More

At the moment, this hotel is #25 of 27 hotels in the area and I ended up here out of desperation to find three rooms on New Year Eve. Now I see it got some harsh reviews a couple of months ago, mainly because the pool was being refurbished. I don't think it deserves such a low rating--and I usually... More

This place SHOULD be an absolute gem...great ocean front views from the balconies, a sea-side bar and a pool/restaurant in similar back-packery, low key setting. It isn't, or at least it wasn't when we visited at the end of our two-week stay in November. The pool was being refurbished - probably now complete - but the staff failed to mention... More

Assigned to this hotel by tour company to start and end my tour of Sri Lanka. It was OK. Room was rather dark as was most of the hotels we stayed in throughout the tour. The toilet flushed and we had hot water in the room. Place could be better maintained. I did not eat at the hotel so I... More

The service was excellent while we were there, and the rooms gave us an incredible view of the ocean. I especially recommend waking up around 5am to see all the Catamarans go out! The food was so-so and the beach is small but nice however the seating is lacking. The rooms were ok. Instead of a double bed, they have... More
