Food Paradise

The food was out of this world! I had both Sri Lankan and western dishes during my stay, and I can confidently say it was the best I had in Sri Lanka. Massive compliments to the chef for preparing such delicious meals! Both the presentation and taste exceeded my expectations.

Luxurious Tent Experience

Staying in the honeymoon tent was a dream! It was spacious and luxurious, with a private plunge pool on the deck that overlooked the lake. The bathroom felt like a high-end hotel, making it the ultimate glamping experience. I loved waking up to the amazing views!

Tranquil Massage

I had an very nice massage high up in the tree canopy, listening to the birdsong all around me. It was such a peaceful and unique experience that truly helped me relax and connect with nature. I can't recommend it enough!

Breakfast was the highlight of my stay, the best I had while exploring Sri Lanka. Although the pool area was pleasant, some amenities felt a bit lacking. Overall, it was a great value for the experience, despite a few minor drawbacks.

My stay at this resort was quite the experience. The spacious rooms provided a comfortable retreat after spending the day enjoying activities, and it was quite amusing watching buffaloes casually munching grass right outside. The service was delightful, with the staff going out of their way to be accommodating, especially when engaging with my little one. On the downside, the dining options felt a little repetitive, lacking variety in the meals offered. Overall, I'd say it was a good deal considering the experience, but some aspects could use improvement.
