Sijainti järven rannalla, hyttysiä paljon, sijainti syrjäinen, vesi oli matalalla joten räme haisi.

Super location for us, 2 miles outside of Hikkaduwa on a quiet lagoon. Ideal if you wanted to travel around the local area or near enough by tuk tuk to the beach. Lovely pool which was cleaned regularly and surrounded by trees which you could see many local birds and animals from. Friendly staff. Great food. Staff helped arrange a rental scooter for us.

First they didnt find our Reservation - 1h waiting befor check-in. The food served was poorly prepared but the Staff is friendly. The worst part was not that we had Rats or Cockroaches in and around the Bungalows, not even the Flees in one of the Beds, its that they charge you 72$ per Night!

Okay til prisen

Super venligt og imødekommende personale. Okay hotel til prisen. Jeg er dårligt gående og det kan ikke anbefales at være det på stedet. Skøn udsigt fra restauranten, men værelserne er små og ikke rene. Men skøn seng.

Very nice bungalow directly on the lake

We booked a luxuary bungalow directly on the lake. The bungalow and the staff have been amazing! Also many locals visited lake e.g. for wedding photos! Really a special place! Every time again...:)
