David and Chamara, along with the rest of the team were available almost 24*7. All of our tiny queries/needs (activity, food and transportational options) were catered to with highest standard of professionalism and efficiency. Special mention to Lucy who gets spoiled with belly rubs all day, loving addition to the entire experience.
Guest Review: The best place so far we stayed in Sri Lanka.! Already here for 6 days and every day we change location. The man that welcomed us very friendly and good English speaking! Although the check in was till 8:00 pm we where late on the road and he had no problem to to the check in 1.5 hour later. The room super nice and clean. In front of the room are the train rails and you can see the train pass buy from your balcony, that is really cool !! Highly recommend!!!
