prawn curryswimming poolmetal square

the food was amazing!!! i had a full board package, and the sri lankan prawn curry at the turnstone restaurant was delicious. the hotel has a large swimming pool set in the heart of nature, a plus for daytime relaxation. fresh coconut water by the pool was very refreshing.

the car park has black metal squares erected on the ground and not visible at night. no warning signs displayed, and it damaged my suv front bumper. i reported it to the management, but they refused compensation.

lush gardenoutdated decorpoor upgrade

The hotel grounds are maintained well with lush gardens. Super clean pathways create a sense of tranquility.

I chose a ground-floor room, but I was told I had been "upgraded" to a first-floor room. This so-called upgrade lacked the easy garden access I had wanted. The room itself featured outdated decor with dark brown furniture.

mosquito problempoor dinner options

The amount of mosquitoes at night was overwhelming. I expected better pest control. The open buffet dinner lacked variety, especially for the price. Options seemed limited to Sri Lankan and Indian dishes, with a noticeable absence of Western choices. The desserts were uninspired, and the overall selection felt more like a standard 3-star hotel, but with a much higher price tag. It was a real let down. I wish I had known this beforehand.
