One of the best hotels weve ever stayed in. Rooms were beautifully decorated and felt very private. Beach bonfire cocktails were amazing. The food, and menu choice as a vegetarian was exceptional. Spa and massage very good. Your stay includes safari, which also included skipping all the queues (which was a brilliant surprise). The staff were so friendly and went out of their way to make our 1 night stay unique

Everything was perfect, except for the lighting in our hut which could have been a lot brighter particularly in and around the wardrobe/bathroom spaces. To be fair the management did bend over backwards to improve the situation as best they could by providing a reading light. All the staff were amazing!

We had a wonderful stay at this property. I cannot think of anything we did not like. The location is beautiful, the room was fantastic, the food amazing (quality, variety and presentation), and the staff kind, professional, and efficient. We were welcomed and sent on our way by Dilshan. All waiters at the restaurant were wonderful but we would especially like to acknowledge the service of Chinthaka. We had great fun on our 4 safari tours with our excellent guide Yesi. We saw leopards, elephants, jackal, and many many beautiful birds. Yesi was very knowledgeable and we learned a lot.We have traveled all over the world - this will be a place to remember.

Amazing hotel

We had booked as part of our trip around Sri Lanka and honestly loved every second of being there. My only criticism is the driveway to the hotel. The sandy offroad path really isn't drivable by most normal vehicles and the hotel gave no warning that we might need a different type of car to access the property. Upon arrival, we were greeted by staff to take us to reception. Check-in was super efficient and after a quick tour of the property we were shown to our room where our bags were already waiting. Wow. The rooms are amazing - huge and everything in it feels brand new. The centre point of the room is the large bed with a variety of pillows. There is a good sized wardrobe with a safe and desk area with plenty of plug points. Behind the bed is the bathroom with closed off toilet, shower and a rolltop bathtub. The lounge area of the room has a love seat and tv/speaker system and there is also a dining table by the coffee machine and well stocked minibar (which is all included in your package). Air con works well in the room and there is a fan above the bed. Each room also includes its own decent sized plunge pool and decking and we had an amazing view to the beach and sea. The hotel has a restaurant, a stunning bar with an extensive cocktail list and a sundowners bar on the beach which is open each evening. All food and drink is included in your package and the quality of the food and service is very good... there just isn't enough time to enjoy everything!

Recommend hotel.

The hotel is amazing, very high class hotel. The food is like a chef restaurant so all day you have different options to eat, really nice. Yala park is nice, didn’t saw many wild animals because of the weather (rainy). Dulaj in the restaurant were very kind and lovely, He made us home filling. Thanks Chena Huts.

Lifetime experience!

The most beautiful hotel I’ve ever experienced! The staff was so welcoming and friendly, and the hotel is just amazing! There is only 14 rooms, and the rooms are basically cabins with a terracce and a plunge pool. It looks just as in the pictures! The restaurant is placed close to the beach, and the food is delightful. We went on a safari arranged by the hotel both in the evening (3.30pm) and in the morning (6am). It was a great experience, and we also spotted a leopard thanks to the great rangers from the hotel! That’s definietly not guaranteed, we got very lucky! When we got back from the evening safari, we were welcomed at the beach, where the staff served grilled shrimps and evening drinks in the sunset. it’s all inclusive, meaning all meals, mini bar, drinks and two safari game drives, so it’s definietly worth it! We only stayed one night, but should at least been there two nights, preferrably a week!
