I had a lovely stay at this resort spa, where the modern amenities blend beautifully with traditional Sri Lankan charm. The beach proximity was a major plus, making it easy to enjoy the sun. The service was commendable, especially when they went out of their way to cater to my family's needs. However, the dining experience felt just a bit underwhelming given the overall pricing. While it wasn't perfect, I felt it was a good value overall.

I had a lovely time at the resort spa. The rooms were spacious and packed with amenities, which was definitely a highlight. However, the noise insulation could use some improvement as I could hear the TV and furniture moving from next door. The service was friendly and accommodating, but I did have a rough start due to waiting a long time in the heat at the airport before receiving the right arrangements. Overall, it was a pleasant experience, but there were a few hiccups.

I had a lovely stay at this resort spa, especially enjoying the breathtaking views from my room and the modern amenities that merged well with the traditional Sri Lankan atmosphere. The service was friendly and attentive, but there were times when it felt a bit lacking in that extra touch expected from a luxury resort.
