"Excellent location to view the elephants in the river at good price. Staff were very attentive, nice pool and great breakfast. 4pm checkin was a bit of a pain, but we understand the reason why. 12pm checkout means you get see the elephants the next morning."

"A bit of an adventure getting to the hotel as it is located at the top of a very steep drive way that meanders though a coconut and pepper plantation. Once there however, the views are great and the ambiance tranquil. The balcony overlooks tree tops, which for anyone seeking a quiet hideaway, this place is perfect."

"We had 2 rooms: one smelled terrible. Both beds were comfortable when you laid on them; one had bed bugs which we didnt sleep on. Room 104 smelled terrible, even after the staff "cleaned" the room again. When we complained to the manager, he said he didnt smell anything wrong. The hotel agreed to change our rooms the, then changed their minds, then gave me the key after I insisted they do so (long protracted argument) . Room 103 was ok, but staff and drivers were outside the window below...

Very good resort with one of the best pools I have ever seen. We only stayed for one night before our early morning departure out of Colombo. A few downsides - the reort is not very close to the airport and actually staying in Colombo city might take the same time. Very expensive airport transfers compared to others I saw but you have no choice but to take hotel transport because of its location.

The husband and wife owners went out of their way to look after us as soon as we arrived. They drove us places, cooked us a lovely breakfast and gave us alot of great advice when we first arrived in Sri Lanka. The hotel is very clean, modern and welcoming. A great place to stay.

Fantastic property to stay especially if you are having to be near the airport for an overnight transfer. The staff were extremely friendly, the room is comfortable and the breakfast was fantastic.

A delightful, modern hotel to stay at before or after a flight. The staff are warm and friendly. The rooms are spacious with plenty of amenities to make the stay comfortable. The luxurious king size bed and bathroom were excellent. The hot breakfast, of your choice, was delicious. We used the included drop off service to the airport 10 minutes away which made for a stress free stay.

Upon arriving to International Airport on a very busy Sunday morning after an extended layover in KL, when I arrived into the villa I was immediately met with all 60 kg of luggage with the friendly Mahindra.
From the word ’go’, mama Mahindra allowed me to reset in the pool and share the villa story. I was provided with insight into local currency costs for honest prices over a small dinner.
The room was called well to a temperature that I could begin to acclimatise, and the following morning...
