Wonderful
A great hotel right on the beach with the best sunsets!! There are 2 beautiful pools. Very attentive staff. And our room was stunning with views of the beach. They decorated our bed beautifully to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. Great selection for breakfast buffet. Fantastic location for the airport with a 25 minute taxi ride

The ocean view from the room was stunning and the beach is meters away. The lunch and dinner were cheap in comparison to other outlets, generously portioned, and very tasty. We walked around that area exploring other nearby hotel restaurants and this was the best - it was lively, bright, and even had live music for lunch.
The breakfast was very average.

Staff were very friendly at breakfast, clean rooms and location was great. We walked to lovely restaurants in the area. Hotel is on the beach, we spent most our time around the pool. 30mins drive to the airport, so close by.
Nothing.

My recent stay at this hotel was a complete disaster. The absolute worst part was the staff's complete lack of helpfulness. They organized a ridiculously loud party right outside my room, which went on until 1 AM, despite being told it would end much earlier. When I called reception to ask about the noise, they were incredibly rude and dismissive.
To add to the misery, the hotel allows locals to come in and harass guests, trying to sell products. They also allow taxi drivers to camp outside the hotel, harassing customers as they enter and leave. The main pool was under construction, and the smaller pool had no sunbeds, making it impossible to relax. The towels provided were old and had holes in them. As if that wasn't enough, the beach was filthy, covered in trash. This hotel clearly doesn't care about its guests or the environment. Save yourself the headache and book somewhere else

My recent experience at this hotel was far from enjoyable, mainly due to unhelpful staff and several issues with the facilities. I originally booked a standard room for two nights for myself. My sister then decided to join me for a night before her departure, so I extended my stay by one night. We specifically requested to stay in the same standard room for all three nights to avoid the hassle of moving rooms after my sister left.
The staff made an unnecessarily big deal out of this request. Instead of accommodating me, they insisted that I check out and then check back into a new room the following day. This caused a massive inconvenience and disrupted my stay. The "deluxe" room was incredibly outdated and certainly not worth the money. It was disappointing to say the least.
Adding to the negative experience, the main pool was under construction, with construction workers all over the place. This made the hotel feel like a building site rather than a relaxing getaway. Overall, the unhelpful staff and the ongoing construction made for a very disappointing stay. I would not recommend this hotel.

Not the best to be honest but served as an overnight stay as we landed late in Colombo. Near to the airport. Within walking distance to Lords complex which is superb for dinner.
The property is very run down. Staff were not particularly friendly. I was very disappointed. Touters waiting to literally pounce on you if you go to the beach. I’m sure there are better hotels in the area.

It was on the beach front and we could go for a walk out to the waters' edge
We were placed in different ends of the hotel. Breakfast was not included. There was mould under the shelves

Found lot of mosquitoes in the room. Staff did not welcome well in the morning breakfast. Feel like they only serve to some targeted visitors and not all people. Airport pick up is great and driver is very helpful. Even it is expensive , he has a good service.
