    This apartment made a huge impression on us and exceeded our expectations. It had everything we needed to enjoy a relaxing and comfortable holiday. The beautiful lake view from the balcony, the delicious restaurant, and the perfect pool were all highlights. Surrounded by peace, quiet, and stunning nature, it’s an ideal getaway. A special mention goes to the wonderful staff – incredibly kind and always ready to help with anything. Highly recommended!

    A luxurious mini-hotel in a quiet location right on the lake shore. There are only 2 rooms, so 7 days out of 10 of our stay, we were the only guests. A large green area with lots of birds and other animals. An open-air pool with a stunning view of the lake. Very polite staff, always ready to help. The food is quite varied: very tasty local and European dishes. Meals are prepared especially for guests right before serving. The rooms are spacious and have everything you need, even pool slippers. No issues with hot water. The beach is a 10-15 minute walk away, and the nearest supermarket is a 25-minute walk. By tuk-tuk, it's 15 minutes to Hikkaduwa center and 30 minutes to Galle. The hotel is away from tourist spots, making it the perfect place for a quiet getaway or retreat.

    This place really is amazing. Peaceful, beautiful, it’s like having your own private holiday resort. The peaceful location of the pool is breathtaking. The rooms are very comfortable with open views to the lake. The air conditioning works really well and is quiet. The room was very clean.The gardens are immaculate and they work tirelessly to keep them so lovely. The guys who work there are gentle and offer great service. We even ate breakfast with a monkey jumping in the trees overhead. I cannot praise this place enough. We loved it. Thank you.

    What an amazing place! We'd had an eventful vacation prior and needed somewhere calm and relaxing. This place fitted the bill perfectly. Only two 'apartments' here sharing an infinity pool and three staff - chef, 'houseboy' and groundsman. Eat at times to suit, and the meals, pretty much cooked to order. Just a great place to stay with really good staff.

    - Great pool - Great big room and bathroom - Secluded location and only 2 rooms so if privacy is what your after this is a great choice

    - The downside of the place having 2 rooms is that you are expected to order lunch and dinner in advance and select times for these. We found this difficult as you want to just eat when you are hungry and not try and pick your meals in the morning. Considering it’s rated 5 star you would think this should be possible. Thankfully we had our own transport so could to into Hikka for grub when we wanted

    A fantastic stay in a serene and nature-filled setting! The property has two well-designed suites with a common pool, creating a perfect balance of privacy and relaxation. The room was incredibly comfortable, and the peaceful surroundings made the experience truly refreshing. The food was outstanding, and the surprise cake arrangement added a memorable touch. The host was very friendly and went the extra mile to provide useful information about nearby places, making our stay even more enjoyable. Highly recommend this place for a relaxing getaway!

    We had a wonderful two-night stay here. The hotel was very quiet, with beautiful lakeside views. Although there are only two rooms in the hotel, we enjoyed complete privacy. The hotel owner was very kind, and the butler, Chathuranga, was extremely friendly. The breakfast and dinner prepared for us were very thoughtful, and the service was attentive. I highly recommend this accommodation.

    The only downside was the number of mosquitoes in the dining hall, but that also highlights the natural, untouched environment.

    We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful lake house near Hikkaduwa! The property is split into two stylishly decorated suites, set in stunning grounds with a pool, cabana, and views across the lake. Chathuranga was incredibly helpful and welcoming, going above and beyond to make our stay special – even arranging a surprise birthday cake for our son! The breakfasts were absolutely delicious, and the peaceful surroundings, with plenty of birds and wildlife, made it a perfect tranquil escape. It’s a short, easy tuk-tuk ride into Hikkaduwa if you want to explore, but if you’re after calm and relaxation, this is the ideal spot. Highly recommended!

    We booked this hotel doing our research and we were very happy with the choice we made. I wanted to take this opportunity thank Chathuranga who made trip so comfortable and adventurous by arranging all tours around and looking after us with all our needs. Very nice location and value for money.

    The place was amazing, the accommodation was great and the staff were so friendly. They went above and beyond to help us and make our stay incredible. They took us to a laundry facility and then picked it up for us when it was ready. We were surprised with a birthday cake for my birthday without having asked or organising anything. I could highly recommend this place in every way, we had a fantastic time and would come back if we return to Sri Lanka!

    Friendly, courteous staff, clean room, good privacy, clean pool.

    Breakfast was pathetic. The property is away from the beach. As the roof is made of aluminum sheet, it's quite noisy when it rains. There was a wifi connectivity issue and power failure during our stay. Considering these, the property is overly priced. Better to choose properties with beach access in Hikkaduwa.

    Property response:

    Hi Penath, We are sorry you were disappointed. We wish you had shared your displeasure with our courteous staff so they could have tried to make your stay more comfortable. I just want to clarify that we have never marketed ourselves as beachfront, and that the distances to beaches are calculated by booking.com based on our location.

    Better have more cottages. The yoga mat is too small.
