отличный отдых great vacation

I want to share my impressions of the holiday. The hotel is wonderful, small but cozy, everything around smelled of some kind of spices, spices - very colorful! It is very well thought out that all the rooms have ocean views (so you don't have to pay extra for this). Attentive staff, for a rather modest tip ready to work wonders! They cleaned the room every day, laid out flowers, folded things, in general, there was nothing to complain about. 3 restaurants. We paid for breakfast and dinner. And we didn't regret it. For breakfast, all the food is the same, there is a lot of it, but the breakfasts are repeated. And the dinners are amazing! Every day a different theme of the cuisine. Either Italian, or German, or costumed grill party near the pool. A huge number of sweets, a lot of various meat dishes, seafood. Lots of fruits. No one speaks Russian at the hotel, and there are almost no Russian-speaking tourists there. Therefore, to communicate with the staff, it is better to learn at least a few phrases you need. The territory of the hotel is also thought out reasonably. Although the hotel was packed, there was no fuss. There were always places near the pool! The beach is very close! And always clean! Almost a day later, for those who wish, a wedding ceremony is held there according to local customs, with costumes, babarans, elephants. This did not bother at all, but only enhanced the color. And it lasted only 15 minutes. There are a lot of young guys on the beach who are ready to arrange any excursion for you. Believe me, they can be trusted. Firstly, they are much cheaper than our guide turned out to be; secondly, during the entire excursion any of your desires will be fulfilled. The local population, of course, wants to sell you something, but they are not sticky, and are very friendly. We made friends with all the locals on the beach. If you do not have A. L. , then it is better to buy beer, seafood and fresh juices in neighboring restaurants. It's much cheaper there. THE BIGGEST QUESTION! Do not be afraid of unsanitary conditions, which are scary in all travel agencies. Everything is clean, neat, sterile! We bought fruits in the market, ate in small restaurants on the coast - everything is fine! There were no problems! I can only say one thing, that during the 12 days spent in this hotel I did not have a single unpleasant memory! Feel free to go to Sri Lanka! This is truly an island paradise! I wish you a pleasant stay!!! !
