"Pros: This was easily one of the loveliest places we’ve ever stayed, made even more special by Damith—the kindest, most hospitable host! When my husband and I stumbled upon this place, we knew it would be the perfect getaway for our anniversary trip. It looks exactly like the pictures—tucked away in lush greenery, down a quiet little alley in Talpe. You’d never expect a spot this peaceful, surrounded by nature, to be so close to the beach! We walked everywhere, and whenever we wanted to venture further, Damith helped us find a reliable tuk-tuk driver. Speaking of Damith—when I mentioned it was our anniversary, he messaged saying he would “arrange something.” We arrived to find the hut where breakfast is served decorated with balloons wishing us a happy anniversary! He even got us a cake to celebrate, which made our trip feel even more special. And the breakfasts he whips up every morning? Incredible. From traditional Sri Lankan dishes like egg hoppers to continental options, everything was delicious. My favorite was his omelets—I looked forward to them every morning. There’s also another villa right next to this one, which Damith had just opened in December 2024. We got a chance to take a look, and it’s absolute perfection as well! We always love staying in places like this—ones created with love by the locals themselves. If you’re looking for a quiet, relaxing stay, I cannot recommend this place enough! Cons: Nothing, everything was perfect!" ~Naahy

"Pros: We loved this resort. Our accommodation was spacious, clean and comfortable. The breakfast was delicious. The pool was fab! There is so much bird life around the accommodation. We saw lots of Kingfishers and Eagles. Suresh was exceptionally kind to us when my wallet and phone were stolen by a tuk-tuk driver. What a very lovely man. Highly recommended! Cons: The resort could do with more signposting. It's a little difficult to find." ~Jane
