10/10 Exceptional

We stayed in a Signature Premium Suite and can't fault the room at all. It was in good shape, spotlessly clean and very spacious. Staff were incredibly friendly and the golf buggy shuttle provided by the hotel was very helpful, especially when it was raining. The food at the bar was lovely, as were the drinks. Both the pools were really big and the hotel is in a beautiful location. Only downside for us was the buffet for dinner which is why we decided to eat at the bar the second night. Would highly recommend this hotel!

The location of the property is excellent but the housekeeping services are below average. The restaurant staff was excellent- Mr. Jayararatne and waiter Mr. Imalsha are extremely good and made every meal a pleasant experience
Ravinder, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We loved staying at this hotel and found the setting and scenery very beautiful. the hotel consists of little bungalows inside the forest, right next to the lake. I would like to see more information about the hotel services to be more readily available in the rooms and public areas (ie spa & other facilities). the pool should be renovated and enlarged. Also the hotel should provide some paddle boats and kayaks for rent so that people can enjoy the beautiful lake.

A very average stay. I’m not sure I would recommend this. The staff are lovely but the rooms are very dated. I don’t think it’s worth the price when there’s many other amazing properties in the area.

Amazing Hotel

The hotel is really amazing. Perfect place for the family stay. Huge beds, calm area, tree house, swings, and much much more what people with kids will enjoy. When buffet breakfast or dinner offered, it has a big variety of different cousin - European, SriLankan, Indian, etc. Staff was amazing, polite and friendly. Starting from cleaners, and ending with receptionist. Special thanks to staff who served breakfast and dinner. They are amazing. Three nights in this hotel wasn't enough for us. Definitely will return and stay in this hotel again.

Property has only one restaurant. It get crowded quickly. Had wait long for a table, food etc especially hopper stand. Management shd fix this bottleneck
Ravitha, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Property needs better upkeeping. Stayed here after a few years and noticed it has gone down in quality. Pest control wasn’t done, rooms were not very clean, the toilet water kept on running unless you try to flush several times till it stops, tv remote wasn’t working. Staff was helpful but felt they were limited by the resources. Management has to do a better job!

Très bel hotel dans la nature

Belle chambre (villa) située dans un très grand parc au bord du lac. Pleins d animaux, des singes, écureuils, lémuriens, et qqes insectes. Au bord du lac, avec 2 magnifiques piscines. Une belle atmosphère paisible. Le lit est confortable. Le personnel très gentil. Le buffet un peu répétitif mais pour le prix il n y a rien à dire. Les chambres pourraient etre un peu mieux nettoyées, mais nous y avons été très bien. Endroit parfait pour aller visiter Dambulla, Sigirya et Polonaruwa

レイクサイドディナーをお願いして　十分なサービスで料理も美味しかったですが　ちょっと暗すぎで料理がしっかり見れなかったのが残念でした。　ゆっくりSPAやプールもありのんびり過ごすのがお勧めです。

Great but remote

Hotel was lovely and the staff were very friendly and attentive. But, the hotel really feels like it's in the middle of nowhere. You can't easily get into town. If you want a get away from it all time then I would happily recommend. Otherwise, be aware that you are limited to the resort itself.
