Kitelantis Hotel and Resort

Absolutely nothing

ABSOLUTELY DO NOT RECOMMEND. This was the worst experience I have ever had while travelling. When we arrived, we discovered that the hotel was completely deserted — there was literally not a single other guest there. Not one person apart from us. The entire property was occupied exclusively by male staff. We were on the other side of the world, in a completely isolated location, after dark and with no electricity. As a woman, I felt genuinely terrified and completely vulnerable. Out of fear, we left the hotel after approximately one hour. We had specifically travelled there for kitesurfing, but despite the hotel being called Kitelantis, the kite center at the property was not open at all. This was another major disappointment, as kitesurfing was the main reason we chose this hotel. We offered the hotel a reasonable solution: they could charge us for one night, but we absolutely did not agree to being charged for the entire stay that we did not use. Despite this, the hotel charged us the full amount for all the nights without any understanding or empathy. When we complained, their response was that “nobody guaranteed there would be other guests or female staff.” Zero empathy, zero understanding and zero respect for our sense of safety. I also find the positive reviews difficult to believe and suspect that some may have been posted by the staff, their friends or paid reviewers. If you value your safety — stay far away from this place.

Excellent stay, aesthetic place with great amenities and service. Staff was friendly and catered well to all of our needs.

Excelente pequeno-almoço (entre os melhores que tivemos em 24 dias no Sri Lanka), a disponibilidade do gerente para nos ajudar a preencher o segundo dia - adorámos a viagem de tuk-tuk por Kalpitiya e a viagem de barco, ambas com o mesmo guia local, conhecedor daqueles pequenos segredos que todos os viajantes gostam de descobrir - e a simpatia e gentileza do chefe de cozinha.

Não se trata de não ter gostado, mas é importante que os potenciais hóspedes saibam que este resort fica no meio de nada. É um local bonito, bem tratado, tranquilo e, na minha opinião, que vale a pena conhecer, mas depende-se do tuk-tuk para qualquer deslocação que se queira fazer. Refeições, apenas no resort - onde, de resto, se come bem -, já que opções em Kalpitiya são muito, mas muito limitadas.

Het personeel was super vriendelijk, het eten was heel lekker. Zalige plek om te verblijven.

Wat een ongelofelijke gastvrijheid. De manager en zijn team hebben ons echt in de watten gelegd. Heerlijk gegeten. Fantastische kok! Ook heel goed rekening gehouden met mijn vrouw haar allergieën.

Helemaal niets.

Le personnel est absolument incroyable et au petit soin. Le chef cuisine merveilleusement. La piscine est très belle et la vue sur les mangrove aussi. Kayak et paddle à disposition pour explorer la lagune.

Après avoir modifié notre réservation nous avons été logé dans la villa. Malheureusement le confort n’était vraiment pas à la hauteur du prix demandé. La barrière du balcon du premier étage était complètement cassée, nos enfants ne pouvaient y rester sans une surveillance continue.

Super leuke huisjes met een hele fijne buitendouche. Mooi zwembad. Heel vriendelijk personeel dat met je meedacht. Kok stond open voor je wensen. We moesten al vroeg vertrekken. De kok en personeel stonden voor ons vroeg op om ons om 6 uur een heel uitgebreid ontbijt te geven. Wij vonden het een hele fijne en leuke plek om te verblijven. Aanrader.

Niets

We hebben een heerlijke tijd gehad bij Kitelantis! Extra complimenten voor de kok en de bediening, het eten is erg smaakvol en ze zijn super behulpzaam en vriendelijk! Het is een prachtige locatie aan het meer, waar je kan suppen en kanoën. Alles is in het resort aanwezig en kan je gebruik van maken! De kamer was ook super met een erg mooi uitzicht!

Geen

We've been before, so knew what to expect. It fulfilled our expectations.

We were the only ones there, as a certain POTUS decided to bomb Iran, so screwing up 1000's of holidays, so there was a limited stock of food and drinks.

Alles einfach wunderbar! Die Lage ist perfekt, man sieht das Meer aus dem Fenster. Das Personal und besonders der Administrator sind unglaublich freundlich und hilfsbereit. Das Essen ebenfalls sehr lecker. Wir sind mit absolut allem zufrieden!

Vackert beläget vid lagunen. Fin utsikt och en underbart lugn miljö. Alla i personalen var mycket vänliga och hjälpsamma och professionella. Vi hade en underbar vistelse där, 4 nätter. Kocken lagade mycket god och vällagad mat och vi njöt av alla olika varianter av lankesisk frukost. Badrummet var så sinnligt och finurligt utformat.

Lovely property in quiet location.Helpful friendly staff who really looked after us. They organised two great trips to Wilpattu park and dolfin watching. Would highly recommend this place for nature and peace , with sightseeing in easy reach

Nothing

De chef-koks bereiden het lekkerste eten! De bungalow is heel ruim en het bed heerlijk, de badkamer heel leuk met een heel originele kraan. Het personeel is heel vriendelijk. Het hele terrein is mooi verzorgd, rustig gelegen en met uitzicht over de lagune. Het zwembad is goed met een leuke bar waardoor je in het water je drankje kan doen. Er is een relax gedeelte op het deck met zitzakken, heerlijke plek om de zonsondergang te zien.

De waterdruk is wel wat laag maar dat was voor ons geen probleem. Het enige minpunt was voor ons dat het wel heel rustig was: we waren de enigen. Maar dat zal lang niet altijd zo zijn want het is er prachtig.

Spacious and tranquil

Quite isolated

Perfect transition into Sri Lankan island life. We stayed 3 nights in a 1-bedroom deluxe bungalow and couldn't have asked for a better start to our Sri Lanka trip. The highlights: Spacious, spotlessly clean bungalow with an amazing outdoor bathroom and reliable hot water Spectacular lagoon views and beautiful pool area Outstanding hospitality - the manager arranged airport transfer and early check-in for our 4:30am arrival, plus a freshly cooked Sri Lankan breakfast on arrival Chef was incredibly accommodating - highly recommend choosing the Sri Lankan breakfast option daily What to know: The hotel is about 15 minutes by tuk-tuk from the main sandy beach, so if beachfront is essential, this might not suit. However, the quality, tranquility, and value for money far outweighed this for us. The location is perfect if you want R&R and a peaceful base to start exploring. Tip: The hotel is quite secluded, so let them know in advance if you have any specific requests or dietary requirements. Perfect for: couples seeking peace, anyone needing to decompress after a long flight, first stop on a longer Sri Lanka adventure.

Beautiful place. Nice staff and it is really cool they have a bar in the pool

Wij hebben echt enorm genoten van deze locatie! Prachtige huisjes, lieve staff en heerlijk eten!

Het eten is wat aan de dure kant, maar wel lekker!

Das Kitelantis Hotel liegt ruhig und etwas abgeschieden in der Natur und ohne Strandzugang in Kalpitiya. Das Personal ist sehr aufmerksam und herzlich. Es war eine Freude, dem Koch bei der Zubereitung der Speisen in der offenen Küche zuzusehen. Die Bungalows sind hübsch gestaltet und die Aussendusche ist definitiv ein Erlebnis.

Die Zufahrt zum Hotel, war mit unserem Mietwagen, einem Prius, etwas herausfordernd ;-)

Good food

Room rather bare

goede service. mooie plek , goede keuken

Schöne Anlage, tolles Zimmer, ruhige Lage, leckeres Frühstück und toller Koch (der auch auf Wünsche eingeht).

Alles kostet extra und extra viel. Essen ist für Sri Lanka total überteuert. Wasser muss man für den doppelten Preis kaufen. Bei dem Wäscheservice kostet jedes Kleidungsstück einzeln. Die Stadt ist 30 Gehminuten (nachts mit bzw. als Frau nicht zu empfehlen, falls doch auf jeden Fall Taschenlampe nicht vergessen) entfernt. Kite Schule oder sowas gibt es am Hotel nicht, auf Nachfrage erhält man eine Nummer für eine sehr gute Schule (KiteZone mit Mario als Besitzer), welche einem auch per Boot abholt.

Friendly. Nice food.

Best breakfast so far. Great staff. Relaxing location

Wir hatten eine wunderbare Zeit. Dieser Ort ist wunderschön, wir hatten das Zimmer mit Lagunenblick. Das Personal ist sehr herzlich und wir waren traurig, dass wir keine Zeit hatten um länger zu bleiben. Das Essen ist auch wirklich hervorragend. Wir kommen wieder :-)

Heerlijke omgeving om te relaxen en bij te komen na bv een rondtocht. Het personeel doet er alles aan om je het naar de zin te maken, met ook nog eens veel etiquette. De huisjes zijn erg sfeervol en de buiten- badkamer is de kers op de taart! De optionele activiteiten worden goed voor je geregeld.

Het dorp Kalpitiya valt erg tegen. Je kunt er naar toe lopen v.a. het resort maar het is geen plezierige wandeling. Wil je niet in het resort eten dan zijn er eigenlijk weinig goede alternatieven.

We logeerden in een prachtige villa die heel netjes was! Toen we wilden gaan kajakken bleek dat er maar 4 kajaks waren, ze regelden voor ons meteen 2 extra kajaks!

Het hotel ligt helemaal alleen, moeilijk om andere plaatsen te bereiken. Eens je door het hekje langs de zeekant stapt, loop je terug tussen afval. Het was er op dit moment van het jaar heel doods ... Als je denkt aan een zon, zee en strand vakantie op deze plek dan valt dit tegen.

Our villa was really nice, good air con and outdoor bathroom. Staff were very helpful and chef cooked whatever we asked for. Really nice food. Pool was nice.

Location was out of town and the lagoon was too shallow fur boats.

We had a great stay in this beautiful resort. It started with a warm welcome and a lovely fruit juice. The rooms were very spaceious and so clean. We loved the outdoor shower. The swimmingpool is great and also is the common area. They serve a great breakfast and cook great meals. Everyone is so friendly. We booked a lagoon tour which was great. They realy took their time and even took as swimming. I would highly recommend this place to stay. Thank you to all the great staff for giving us an incredible time.

They have everything we wanted, just ready for use, and with friendly help from the staff. Bikes, kayaks, fishing rod, paddle board, outdoor bathroom and an excellent pool. Also the breakfast was very tasty! A must try is the Sri Lankan breakfast option.

Hard to find something but if we need to mention one point of improvement it would be the dinner: quite expensive for Sri Lanka and the quality of the fish could be better.

An absolutely gorgeous resort and we recieved a very warm welcome from the staff. For relaxing a great place!

Important note though: if you come for kitesurfing the resort is a bit away from the kitespot and the cost to get there by boat is verg high.

Bedrooms are very nice. Staff is very friendly. Location is nice

Price of beverage and food. 1500 rp for a beer in Sri Lanka is too much.

Very quiet and nice property. Very exotic situation regarding where we live.

The road in, is quite bumpy and there is not much here at the lagoon which served us well after a long journey. The views of the lagoon are wonderful, the room was tastefully designed with modern comforts. My poster bed was huge and comfortable, best nights sleep. My bathroom was inside / outside (don't forget to close the toilet lid - frogs), could use more power outlets. The staff are very friendly and keen to assist. The food was delicious, the restaurant has long tables set up for large groups and there is a seating area, with bean bags for the kite surfing crew. The gardens are wonderful as I believe the land was once a coconut tree farm. The pool was great, with a swim up bar. There wasn't many pool beds. In the evening time the staff set up chairs and tables to watch the sunset.

We were the only people staying at the resort, and our rooms were within a house at the edge of the resort. The keys / locks didn't work, it felt a little weird and unsafe. It would have been better to have our own cabanas closer to the main pool / restaurant area. The internet was not working well and the power kept dropping out. You are out of town, so you will need a car / driver.

Excellent staff, amazing chef catered for our vegetarian diet, food beautifully presented. Fast efficient room service. Can't praise the staff enough. Would highly recommend.

Great friendly staff, food was brilliant value for money especially for evening meal, the rooms were something out of this world though. From the outside bathrooms, to big comfy bed. The peace and tranquility of this place was amazing and we are going back to celebrate my friends birthday in a few months

Bit of a rocky road to reach to it but this is why it is so peaceful

Villa was large and comfortable. Pool was nice with bar available all day. Food was great. Staff excellent.

It’s a bit isolated if you don’t have transport. But we enjoyed just staying in the resort for a few days.

The facilities, staff and organisation of the dolphin spotting trip were superb.

The small 'beach' between the hotel grounds and it's jetty, was somewhat scruffy with litter. Although technically part of the hotel grounds, the canoeing and motorboat experience would be much improved if the hotel took responsibility for keeping this small area litter free.

Great food, super pool and location for kiting. Boat pick up to kite spot.

Clean & spacious rooms with good food

There were lots of Mosquitoes even using mosquito vaporizer and a net being there and the access road to the hotel wasn’t great

Beautiful place, in front of an entrance of the ocean. Protected from winds. The resort is amazing. Rooms are big, new and clean. You’ll get an outdoor rest room, being able to shower outside underneath the palm trees, but with all the privacy. It’s just priceless. The resort has a pool, bar, and dining area, all overlooking the lagoon. Breakfast is very good and included, being able to choose between Sri Lankan or Western. You also have a set and changing menu for dinner if you’d like to. Staff is very welcoming, kind and accomodating. It’s an amazing place to stay and relax. Totally recommend it.

Everything was perfect

beautiful peaceful spot on the lagoon with lots of birds around. Rooms are gorgeous, food is great and staff are super helpful. I would have been happy to stay there longer, I definitely recommend kitelantis

nothing

Gorgeous resort off the beaten track. I came here primarily for birdwatching in and around the town of Kalpitiya. Most guests come for Kite surfing or whale watching. Bungalows are specious and beautifully designed. I felt like Lara Croft walking into evening suite each time. The bathroom was really unlike I've ever seen. The resort itself has a beautiful garden with big butterflys (at least in January) and fine swimmingpool. A walk along the shores of the lagoon leads to a mangroveforest part for some birding activities. Staff is warm and welcoming and takes great care. Also I walked many times the 20 minutes to the town of Kalpitiya for meals in the many locally owned restaurants.

Friendly & accommodating staff Lakshan made our stay very comfortable with his genuine concern and hospitality. The chefs were very accommodating as well. A beautiful and tranquil location. The Sri Lankan breakfast options & the grilled Barramundi were tasty.

We booked a Deluxe Double room with Lagoon view. However, upon our arrival, we were given another room which the Manager Eranga claimed was an "upgrade". He insisted this other room was better & afforded privacy that the original room did not have. He also attempted to deter us from the Deluxe room stating that there were children in the next unit, which he assumed would be a disturbance. However, we insisted on the Deluxe room which we finally got, and the unit next to us was unoccupied during our stay despite him stating that there was a family with children occupying the same. We also did not appreciate the manner in which he behaved during our check-out. We were given a late check out (1pm) when we booked our stay. However, he messaged us stating that check out was at 12 noon & also called us 30 mins later. He had to be reminded that he had agreed two days earlier to a late checkout. Upon being reminded of the same he quickly changed the topic of conversation and did not even attempt to apologize. He also asked intrusive personal questions which made us feel uncomfortable.

Food could have been better

The slow service and the pillows

Holiday | Family Nice place with overlooking lagoon. One of the best places arund kalpitiya to have a relaxing getaway . You can do kayaking , kite surfing , and many more. Can go to nearby islands by boat. You can visit wilpattu from lagoon side entrance via a boat.

The staff at this hotel were incredibly welcoming and helpful throughout our stay. 😇 Great for a family. Kitelantis is a beautiful and charming place.😍 They have a boat dock with an amazing view. Room were spotless 👌

Meal options were limited. It's nice to get an electric kettle for a room to make a hot drink. 😉

The resort is beautiful and surrounded by nature. Lakshan and the other staff did everything to make us thrive, and the food was better than anywhere nearby

We liked the remoteness, solitude and the feeling of living in nature, but some may feel the inaccessability and difficulturies of finding tuk tuk that could drive us to from the diving center etc

Fantasic breakfast and food over all. Amazing chef. Staff very suportive since we have 2 children with us.

What a lovely surprise. We wanted to check out the Kalpitiya peninsula but are not kite surfers so were a bit hesitant booking at Kitelantis. Let me say, have no hesitation this is an amazing place to stay. Jessie is a natural host, who's own story is fascinating and inspiring. We talked for a long time but could have gone for hours. He is dedicated to making the place successful not just for his guests but for his staff and the community. We extended our stay and loved every second. A kayak on the lagoon at sunset, a drink on the private jetty, a swim up bar, or a kite surf or safari, this place ticks a lot of boxes. Great rooms, the outdoor private bathrooms are next level. We will recommend to friends and will be back. Can't wait to see what Jessie and the team achieve in the years to come. An inspirational Sri Lankan success story.

Having to leave 😕

Close to the kiting zone

The swimming pool wasn’t very clean, after a day or two the kids got ear pain and red stains

The staff was very friendly and made us feel very welcome. Thanks to all of you, especially Jesse, Luwis, Dulanka. The cottages are spacious, clean and the outdoor bathrooms are great. In short: A perfect place to be and to relax.

Nothing to complain about.

Amazing villa and beautiful bathroom. The staff is amazing! We felt at home right away thanks to all of them! Special thanks to Jessi 🙏🏻

Jessie is an amazing host and set a relaxed and friendly atmosphere from the second we met. It was serendipitous to arrive on the day of the full moon and the summer solstice and Asraf invites us to a.magical.and memorable riverside solstice ceremony Magic in the air

That we only stayed 1 night

Amazing stay at Kitelantis - friendly and super nice staff, spacious bungalows, delicious food and good kitesurfing on the spot across the lagoon. Jessy also organised trips around Sri Lanka - overall an amazing experience and one to repeat!

Staff is very helpful, your room is cleaned whenever you want. Nice pool and resort. Pretty comfy rooms.

Road to the hotel is a bit long and bumpy, the resort is far away from the city. Breakfasts were "on budget" (not much choice) but at the end of our stay they're a bit improved :) To get to kitesurfing spot you must take a boat.

The location is beautiful in front of the lagoon. Its clean, very relaxed atmosphere and the boatservice from the hotel to the kitebeach is very convenient. Jesse and his hotel staff are very friendly, hard working and always ready to assist.

The staff are the best! Specially the manager Jessie, so nice to talk to and helped us with everything we needed. The rest of the staff were also lovely. Location is amazing, if you want a very beach jungle vibe this is the place. The pool bar was probably my favourite. Oh and if you want to go to the beach you go by boat, just a couple of minutes. Almost no tourist around.

Kitelantis is in a beautiful location, surrounded by palm trees and birds. The views over the lagoon and the pool area are very pretty. The rooms are great and the dinner is generally very good.

Kitelantis feels a bit disorganised. To get to the kite spot you cross the lagoon by boat. This is only possible at the fixed times of 10:00, 13:00 and 15:00. In winter the wind usually picks up at some point during the day. The other kite resorts in Kalpitiya go to the spot when the wind picks up. At Kitelantis you have to decide whether to go at 10:00 even if there's no wind, and wait at the beach, or wait unitil 13:00 when the wind could have started at 11:00. Kitelantis also doesn't offer lunch at the spot (unlike the other resorts). So it's easiest to sort your own lunch when staying there. Most of the staff don't have great English, and nothing was expained to me, so it took me a while to understand the system.

Friendly helpful staff. Relaxing atmosphere.

The location and the arrangement is fantastic. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The manager there Jessi make sure your stay there is very comfortable and he personally attended to the needs of the customers. The food there was also delicious.

Quiet and peaceful

Our check in took more than 3 hours. The hotel is definitely over rated with poor/ lack of maintenance, nearly the plug point caught fire in the room; there was no water in the taps and toilets. I had to wake up the manager at 5 30 AM and then both of us went to check to see the security guard who was supposed to be awake was soundly asleep and had not bothered to start the water pump. The staff are poorly trained. Doors that don’t close properly. Toilets that are open to the sky so if there is rain whilst in the toilet get ready for a drenching. No kettle in the room so to make tea we had to go to the restaurant to get some hot water. No fridge or TV. Booking. Com needs to check the quality of the hotels they advertise.

Wonderful experience. The staff is so nice, kind and helpful. Perfect location, just in front of the lagoon. Amazing room, beautiful pool with bar, great breakfasts and perfect scenario (with or without kitesurfing)! ❤️ thanks a lot Kitelantis

Nothing

Jesse gave an extremely warm welcome! He made sure that everything was great from start to finish. Any questions or concerns I had were addressed promptly. The food was delicious and the staff were extremely accommodating and helpful. The resort itself was absolutely gorgeous. As you arrive you enter into an oasis of coconut trees and truly feel the essence of Sri Lanka. I was brought to and from the lagoon every day to go kitesurfing which was great!

Considering I went at the end of the season, there weren't really people I could connect with so I did have to go to other places to do this (with the addition of kitesurf trips etc). I also had an unfortunate experience with a tuktuk driver in Kalpithya, which Jesse helped me resolve. So when going there, definitely be cautious, and ask Jesse for tips and advice.

Price/Value: 3/5 Room: 3/5 Bathroom: 4/5 Cleanliness: 1/5 Food: 3/5 Atmosphere: 4/5 GOOD: 1. free boat to kitesurfing spot; 2. Ansalees is very helpful and professional in everything you need. The manager is trying and always happy. 3. Open-air bathrooms are a highlight. 4. The setting and vibe is very nice in all the palm trees.

BAD: 1. Food: relatively low quality for local standards and way too expensive for what it is: Very basic dishes, bones and tendons in all chicken pieces, both of us got food poisoning from prawns, always the same taste. Food always arrives too late and no flexibility in early dinners before 8pm; which realistically is rather 8:45pm. Breakfast options are extremely limited unless you proactively ask for specific dishes a day before 2. Beverages: no other alcohol than beer, but water is for free which is nice. 3. Water and electricity outages every 2-3 days without solution for some hours. 4. Rooms are dirty: even after 2x room service, cockroaches and their droppings are everywhere. Better don’t look below the bed. 5. No sea view as advertised and no usable windows in the room making it a spacious but sad accommodation staying inside due to food poisoning. NEUTRAL: there’s nothing to do in town. Place seems empty generally. Limited privacy during eating times as all guests sit together at a large table.

The bungalow is large and has places to hang clothes and a luggage rack. The bed is comfortable. The atmosphere is serene and the pool lovely. Sitting poolside is very relaxing. I loved the outdoor bathroom, but I imagine that sometimes of the year it would not be so nice. There is a kite surfing beach, close by, but there were no shade, so not so good if you were just a family member. The lagoon, which is just outside the property is very picturesque, but is not swimmable, or a place to lounge. It is a very family friendly place to be if you have children.

There is no Internet, despite what they say. As other people have mentioned, the food was tasty, but very very expensive. While Staff tries to be very helpful, communication can be problematic. Jessie, the manager, is very personable, and really tries his best to be helpful. However, he was not there the first day and a half of my stay. For example, when I asked for a bucket to wash clothes in, staff said they had none. What hotel doesn’t have a bucket? Just to make sure they understood. I used Google translate. My boat and Jeep Safari never happened because of miscommunication. However, all of this can be overlooked. The Sri Lankan economy has suffered terrible losses in the past several years and people are trying to make a living. And the technology, which most developed countries take for granted is lacking. What could not be overlooked was the fact that my Sri Lankan friends were told that locals were not allowed. (16 of the available 18 rentals were available). This was reinforced by the staff when I arrived. I attempted to clarify this with the manager a couple of days later, and he said this was not the case. I was there to bear witness to the initial refusal. Again, I don’t think this was done with malice. I think there was miscommunication between the reality of the policy, and the specific circumstances

Great and friendly staff, nice rooms and a beautiful property.

The pricing of food & drinks is a little high by Sri-Lankan standard as there’s really no alternatives around. Food was delicious though!

An incredibly stylish and beautiful hotel. I was looking for a calm place and this was a perfect match. However, you can socialize if you want. Jessie, the manager, is doing his job with a strong sense of responsibility, Ansalees and other employees are highly professional and kind. Hotel boat can take you to the beach. The place is very popular for kitesurfers and the beach was very windy during my stay, but you can relax perfectly at the hotel pool. The atmosphere there is idyllic. Food was really tasty.

Beautiful relaxing resort ! The staff were so friendly and helpful. Lovely pool, gorgeous spacious rooms and delicious food! We loved the badminton, watching the sunset on the dock and the pina coladas!

The food/ drinks were a little expensive and there’s no where else nearby to eat or drink so be prepared for that.

The staff was amazong, they tried absolutely everything to do an excellent work and were always ready. No matter what you needed, they always tried to help you. The resort is in a very quiet area and has a nice clean pool with a pool bar.

The small huts have no glass windows.

Exceptional staff and manager made our stay a pleasure. Would always come back.

The roads leading up to the hotel need immediate attention. Fortunately, we were in SUV to wade through the waters. The open toilets/ bath doesn't go well with most of guests

Staff is amazing. Breakfast for an army, food and drinks very good. Nice pool, beautiful view of lagoon, kayaks available. Super helpful staff, they make this hotel top rated

Nothing

We had a great time…. The place is just amazing.. We wanted to spend a few days to have a rest before another exploring of Sri Lanka… You have to take a boat (5 min) to get to the beach - very good spot for kiting…. We travel with our 8 years old son, so spent couple nice days at the beach. Room was spacious and clean… our special thanks is to Ansalis and Madushan who took an extraordinary care of us and made our stay unforgettable. Bur the whole staff was very friendly and helpful with anything…. THANK YOU 😃

Loved that the staff was always trying to make us comfortable Offered their favorite foods and cooked as many banana pancakes as the kids wanted for breakfast Made suggestions of delicious things to try They were helpful in taking us to the kitesurfing spot and once took us back as we had forgotten items there

Rooms look good but our mosquito net had holes and we got bitten almost every night Sand as floor in the bathroom looks good but isn’t ideal as we would take a lot of it inside the room Cockroaches - i understand it’s tropical climate and there is a well maintained garden but still I don’t like them

Just about everything! The place was paradise on earth, so much better than what we had expected! Pradeep was exceptional together with all other staff and chef Prasad. Everyone took the service to another level! Upon our arrival we got a free upgrade so that we had a wonderful 2-room villa! We got all the help we needed with our kite equipment , great support with transport and they even entertained our 4yo son without us asking them to 🥰 The food was amazing! Thank you for making our vacation memorable!!!
