A touch of luxury to enhance your stay in SriLanka

We had a wonderfully relaxing few days. The staff were friendly and helpful and the meals were most enjoyable. Our room was immaculately clean and the water was hot. It was lovely to be able to sit out on a balcony and read. The manager arranged a great safari to Bandula National Park and provided us with a very tasty breakfast to take with us. On leaving, they were able to arrange transport to our next hotel. The recently extended and beautifully decorated hotel is located in a quiet area looking out on the river. The local wildlife of birds and animals could be heard and appreciated. Thank you to all the members of the family who cared for us throughout our stay! We highly recommend everyone to stay at your beautiful hotel.
