Hi all! I would like to leave my review for those who are interested in the country and the hotel. We rested with a company from 07 to 19.03. 13. Flight there Etihad + Sri Lankan Airways, back Emirates. Everything is on the level, only the flight back was delayed for 7 hours, but they were placed decently at the airport and fed for free. The hotel corresponds to its ****, the rooms are spacious, we did not have any washed and torn bedding. Toiletries, water and tea set were updated daily. Cleaning is standard. Upon check-in and check-out, flowers from the hotel. Nothing was missing from the room, from the safe, although they could have been surrounded by little things, because they left various expensive knick-knacks in the room. There were no problems with early check-in at the hotel - we arrived at 10.00, got into the room at 11.00. The staff is polite, but communication is only in English. We do not shine with knowledge of foreign languages, so there were inconsistencies, but this did not prevent us from having a normal rest. Special thanks to the administrator for the reception at the dentist. Breakfasts are standard - eggs in all forms, chicken and fish (it seemed very spicy for us), sausages (well, very mediocre), sausage, bacon, cheese, butter, jams, yogurt, cereals, muffins, buns, fruits, juices. For 12 days, I didn’t get sick of disgust, twenty, of course, is more difficult to survive. We had lunch and dinner in cafes. We liked the most in the village "Delicacy" near Dima, normally in "Dylan" on the beach on the left side of the hotel and "Oasis" with a wire, which has one advantage - free Wi-Fi. In terms of taste criteria in Thailand, we liked it more, but in terms of the quality of cooking, everything was fine. Fresh seafood, fresh juices were not diluted with water, quality rum (1400 price per bottle in local stores). By the way, "Dylan" can change the currency. The best rate was on excursions to Kandy 126, at the airport 125.45 and Dylan 125. We went on excursions to Kandy and Galle, the cost was 75 and 30 dollars per person. Choose a guide for knowledge of the Russian language, otherwise you will just watch, understand from fifth to tenth, but rather read on the Internet what you plan to visit and then a small vocabulary will not bother you. We liked the Royal Botanic Gardens and the fort in Galle the most. The rest of the emotions did not cause, I think that they carry it to fill the excursion day. The idea of ​ ​ ​ ​ the country will develop in one excursion. If there is an elephant nursery in the program, be sure to stay for a swim, otherwise it will be boring. The ocean is beautiful in advertising does not need. If you want to swim, go beyond the surf line (through the waves to free water) along the shallows and you can enjoy 50 meters from the shore, further at your discretion, because lifeguards are not provided. All together, both the hotel and the holiday left us with very good memories. My little advice: if you come with the mood to relax, then relax, do not pay attention to the little things and enjoy. Good luck!
