10/10 Excellent

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Bungalow super sympa et atypique. La cuisine est très bonne et fraîche : tout est fait maison sur place. Seul petit manque, il n'y a pas de cocktails. La plage est juste devant les bungalows et pratiquement déserte, hormis quelques cours de surf. De jolies vagues pour s'amuser, avec des planches mises à disposition par l'hôtel. Le bémol : c'est un peu à distance des commerces, il faut prendre un tuk-tuk pour s'y rendre. Un conseil, utilisez l'application PickMe, sinon c'est plus cher — le tuk-tuk arrive en moins de 5 minutes. Il y a de quoi faire pour se promener et visiter. Le parc de Kumana vaut le détour : beaucoup moins fréquenté que Yala (nous étions moins de 10 jeeps), idéal pour profiter et se reposer. Sans problème pour un séjour de 5 jours.
