Vacation was a success! The reviews that I read before the trip are completely true. When I arrived, I remembered that the place was called paradise, the first impression is where paradise is, and then the ocean, birdsong, flowers, palm trees, and now it really is paradise. A hotel where squirrels sing, lizards talk, shells bite, mongooses, peacocks and monitor lizards run around the territory. It's all really there. Everything is fine, the kitchen, the rooms, the service, but there is one BUT. If you are from Ukraine and are traveling on a package from our travel agency, be prepared that after paying for a chalet with ocean views, you will be accommodated in a "standard Room" for two days, or maybe for the whole time. The hotel then compensates for this, with a massage or meals if you only have breakfast, you will be offered dinner, or even lunch (generally unnecessary) There were 4 such couples from our check-in. Honestly, there is no big difference between the chalet and the standard in terms of filling the room, except for the price and the opportunity to sit on the terrace and enjoy the sound of the ocean. such a plan "Your agency did not confirm the reservation", but the real situation is this, "you paid money not to the hotel but to the agency in Ukraine, this agency paid the agency in Sri Lanka, it will pay the hotel someday, etc. Russians in this case simply they take an invoice from him indicating the cost of the standard and the difference for the chalet, and sue the agency (they have a society for the protection of the rights of tourists, an analogue of our consumers). I did not know English and used the services of Russian vacationers, at the request of which Paul But on the second day we were settled in the coveted chalet No. 22.4 massages compensation (we used only one, nothing special, just relaxation. millet, speaks only English. Therefore, if you are going to a hotel, call there and ask if your reservation is there, you just won’t spoil your first impression of the hotel and have a great rest. The food is excellent, the cleaning is also great, the rooms are certainly not the first freshness, but there were no problems. The staff and just Sri Lankans are friendly and welcoming. Beach fights are not scary, just find yourself a good friend and he will take care of you all the rest, he will take a little money from you for his friendship, they need to feed their family, but it will save you many times more. We had a super friend Rua, intelligent helpful and most importantly able to organize trips to safaris, to Mirissa for whales, Galle, turtles, etc. His phone number is (0094) -071-3712-661,
e-mail ruwa. ranlaksmi@gmail. com I don't know English. communicated well with him. And where you should not go, this is the "garden of spices". The biggest scam, people left at least $200 there for nothing. all the trees can be seen in the park at the Virginia White Tea tea factory, Rua took us there, not far from Tangalle. And it’s also great to ride regular buses, cheap, safe and fun. In general, I recommend it to everyone, the rest is super.
