A lovely hotel with a stunning sea view, offering exceptional hospitality and clean, comfortable rooms. The location is perfect, close to Ambalangoda city but away from the busy areas in a charming local market. The dining experience provides delicious aged USDA prime steaks. However, the facilities could use some improvements, and pricing may not fully align with the value offered.
