10/10Beautiful view. Right on the beach which like an incredible private bay. Got to be ready for those waves though! Our room was on the ground floor overlooking the pool and sea. Wonderful staff and breakfast was amazing. We had dinner one night, and chose the Sri Lankan dishes with a fish curry which was so lovely. A little spicey as a curry for me but you can certainly ask for milder flavours I am sure. Nice staff. No place for thé driver to stay but that’s ok. Spent two nights there at the beginning of our trip and was very relaxing. Only have four rooms there so quite nice and cosy. To head to the town you need a tuk Tuk or a driver.

10/10This was our favourite place to stay during our two weeks in Sri Lanka. The chef consulted re the menu and cooked fresh fish that he selected for us. The setting was magical and romantic. It was at the quiet end of Hikkadawa. We loved it!
