Vacationing with my husband. Pros: interesting excursion program (3 days, 2 nights). They took it from the operator and did not regret it, excellent ! ! We were lucky, we got off the plane tired, we expected that now we would immediately go up the mountain to climb with a group, and then it turned out that we were only ourselves with a guide in his car, he took us to sleep, moved half of the program to the next day so that we it was not hard after arrival immediately, amazing! ! In addition, we asked him to additionally take us to ride elephants in the jungle, for Ayurvedic procedures and in Galle, this is not included in the program, we thanked our guide separately for this. So that eksrsionkoy were very satisfied.
Now that some people are crying that everything is bad there. The country is poor, many people live without running water and sewerage, some have never seen tourists at all in the center of the island, there has been a civil war for 30 years, so there is no need to be surprised that it is like it could be on the Cote d'Azur of France.
Yes, in places unsanitary conditions, yes, they forget to put toilet paper in the hotel, and they don’t give shower gel, and they don’t put shampoo, take your own. And sometimes they forget to put water, you have to run to ask (we ourselves bought large bottles for tea in other places), you have to run for beach towels, so that they put an umbrella you have to run to ask, but this is the feature of this country)) There are people without a second thought, they They don't really know what a service is. If you don’t run into dishonest people (there are such people everywhere), then people are mostly very kind, smiling, it’s nice to be with them. So we liked it, but we don’t want to go a second time. Because the rest on the coast is boring, and we have already seen excursions. There is nowhere to walk near the hotel, life dies off after 8, it is uncomfortable to walk along the streets, dusty, so we toiled a little in the evenings. There are routers everywhere in the hotel, the Internet is good (this was not the case in neighboring triplets). There was an a la carte restaurant where we ate mostly (we only had breakfast included). On the third day, we realized that the prices in it are normal, lower than in Galle, and in the neighboring "restaurants" everything looks so miserable that our hotel was a model of cleanliness, beauty and design. The beach is huge, readable. The waves are big, it’s difficult to swim, you have to run across the surf and swim after it. We went to Halle several times, you can walk there until sunset, then life also dies off. There will be questions, ask.
