The Residence Bentota

I was very lucky to get a good room, so everything was just fine: a wonderful garden with an amazing swimming pool, breakfast - everything.

The owner settled me in a one-room apartment instead of a two-room apartment with a terrace, balcony, kitchen, refrigerator without all these amenities. There was only one working socket for charging gadgets and a kettle. But though the room was clean and there was an aircon inside. Bedsheets were clean as well. They also provide a towel for free. As for bath and toilet it was also clean. There was hot water but no shampoo/shower gel in bath cabins. But there was a toilet paper. There was a kettle in the room. As for cold drinking water they don't provide it. Internet connection wasn't working all the time. There was a pretty good breakfast with fried 2 eggs, 4 tosts (but 2 of them were from old dried bread), butter and jam, fruits (3 pieces of watermelon and papaya, 2 bananas) and 2 drinks as tea/coffee and freshly made juice. Located in 5 mins walking distance from beach. The staff was accomodating and helpful.

Wir kommen schon 8 Jahre lang einmal jährlich in diese Anlage. Die ersten Jahre waren sehr ruhig und man kannte sich. Nun sind mittlerweile Hostelzimmer und neue Appartemens dazu gekommen und dadurch ist natürlich lauter und belebter. Aber man kann trotzdem Ruhe und Entspannung finden. Der Pool mit ionisiertem Wasser lädt zum schwimmen ein. Die Anlage wird durch den Gärtner hervorragend gepflegt und auch das andere Personal sind bemüht, es allen recht zu machen. In diesem Jahr gab es neue Sonnenliegen. Und vielleicht kommt das eine oder andere Haus in nächster Zeit eine Verschönerung.
