Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: The garden and hammocks were great. The room was adequate. The breakfast was good.
Negative: It is posted as being on the beach. It isn’t, the pin is incorrect. The property was tired and unkempt. The bathroom was dirty. We only stayed one night.
Summary: Not where it is advertised and disappointing

Positive: We loved staying here! The rooms are beautiful, the outdoor bathroom with clothesline was the best. Really strong water pressure in the shower, comfortable bed in a big room with excellent A/C and fan. Breakfast was ample and yum, and the staff Svena and Raj are both lovely people who are helpful and kind. The garden is beautiful and nice to hang out in, and the location is so close to Pottuvil Point for sufring and good restaurants (especially Mr Moon and The Tasty Tuna). The village is quiet, calm and friendly. We'd have loved to stay longer.
Summary: Best stay in Sri Lanka

Positive: This place felt magical and we really felt like home here! Don’t know if it’s gonna be that way in a few years, but staying here instead of Arugam Bay was the best decision. The town here is so small but such a safe space! The rooms are decorated with love and the garden is really special as well. This was by far our favorite place to stay in Sri Lanka. We went surfing in the morning (6 am) and it’s just around the corner. A special surprise was the family dinner we had together with all guests, really nice for connecting but also really delicious!! So thankful to have met Sveva and Raj:))
