Fantastic
A beautiful place with serene surroundings to chill and relax.
The surfing spot is just a few minutes away and the place has qualified trainers for surfing and Yoga. The locations for Yoga in and outside the place is just amazing with some of the classes held atop a nearby hill overlooking the ocean.
The staff are friendly and helpful and the place is lovely with hammocks hung everywhere for guests to relax and a few friendly dogs taken care of by the establishment always around the place.
I would recommend this place to anyone who wants to have a memorable stay in the south of Sri Lanka.
