Very large room with amazing view from the balcony overlooking acres of land and the lake.
High ceilings and very spacious room. The bathroom was just as big equipped with a very large bath and large shower. The decor is amazing, the air-con was great, the rooms were very clean and the bed was so comfy.
The location was great, the hotel was so peaceful and romantic, it's located in a large acre of land away from the street lights so you can star gaze in the evening.

Great place. Stayed here for three nights in total. Food is really good with wide selection to suit all diets and tastes.
Right on the beach and huge vanishing pool surround by lounges and the villas it's not overcrowded or on top of each other.

Lovely hotel set in beautiful gardens. Attentive staff.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. It’s spoiled us at the start of a 3 week trip to Sri Lanka. Our next hotel was a real let down after Ulagalla!!

Badminton was good fun! Tree planting signage and labelling was very interesting and engaging. But the most amazing part was the Sri Lankan food. The Hoppers were phenomenal and the potato curry at breakfast sublime!

The hotel & grounds were wonderful. There was loads of wildlife, including mongeese, monitor lizzards, grey slender loris & a resident crocodile.
The room, restaurant & swimming pool were all excellent.
There were also plenty of places to sit & read outside the room eg a library area.

Stunning spot overlooking a lake where elephants have been every morning and evening of our stay (can’t see them that well in the evening!). Extremely friendly and helpful staff and the food they prepare , whether breakfast, or if you ask lunch or dinner, is extremely tasty and plentiful. We cancelled our plans and stayed an extra night it was that good. Cannot recommend enough.

Gorgeous hotel in a beautiful setting. In the middle of the forest, this is a hidden little gem, with lovely spacious clean rooms, exceptionally friendly staff, and a luxury lodge like feel!
It was out of season, so the hotel was quite quiet, and we had the pool to ourselves. I imagine this is the perfect spa retreat in peak season!

This is a small and cosy hotel with all the necessary amenities (except aircon and pool). Just steps away from one of the most beautiful beaches we have ever seen. We were alone in the hotel most of the time, but even when it fills up it will never feel anything like a beach resort. Really exceptional place.

We got a friendly greeting when we arrived and drinks brought to us on Reception. All staff are very friendly. The room was beautiful and very spacious. We had a junior suite and it was the best room I’ve ever stayed in.
We were able to add room service and meals to our bill to pay by card when we checked out. There are ATM’s nearby if you want to get some cash.
We gave tips at the end of our stay. It was helpful that the documentation from the hotel states that charges include a service charge...
