The view over the knuckles mountain range is outstanding, but the rest leaves much the be desired. The only thing that the high price seems to give you, is that the staff is saying yes a lot more often, when they actually mean no or don't understand. As an example I asked for vegetarian food, got a chicken leg for dinner, told them again and got sausage for breakfast. To get towels we had to ask four times. I had much better food and service in places that cost a third of this place. In addition, the entire place was more of a construction site than the quite retreat you would expect. There were construction noises covering the nature sounds all day long. I've heard the phrase "if you're happy we are happy" very often during my stay there, and every time it sounded less convincing. The extra charge of 2000 LKR for our drivers quarter was far above the usual rate and according to our driver absolutely not justified.
