"10/10. Cannot describe in words. We have visited 60 countries and saw a lot, but this place is pure magic. Unbelievable staff including manager, super clean and cabinas are beautiful. We appreciate handmade furniture and taking care about details. A lot of room for relax everywhere in the resort. Pizza? Same taste like in luxury restaurants in pizza home - Italy. Definitely recommend. Next time we would come for a week, not just two days. And last but not least - super value quality : price. We are grateful for preparing bitter melon in traditional way which we bought on the city market, for a fresh juice from coconut for free and for showing us traditional Sri Lanka's game - Carrom. Don't raise to much prices next years please, keep it possible to backpack young travellers like we."

"Wow what an amazing place!! Really friendly owners and staff. The location on the beach is unbeatable. And to fall asleep to the waves is always such a treat. Love the simple treehouse style rooms!! They serve amazing authentic Neapolitan style Pizzas and we tried some delicious pasta too would highly recommend. Spent a lot of time just chilling in the beach cabanas. Great to switch off from some of the busier places we have visited :)"

"Amazing place with good quality, cozy rooms , well maintained. Due to the continuous light wind there is always fresh air, so you dont need AC at all. Which is in my view even better since this way you always hear the sea. Fascinating. The owners are super nice people , will support you with everything. They always go the extra mile. The yoga twice a day is a must try. The beach, the surfing and the delicious Italian cuisine - all highly recommended. We will go back next year."
