We staying at this resort for 11 nights in Dec/Jan. We came direct from Columbo airport which I agree is a long journey but there was so much to see and our driver continually advised us of all the points of interest so the time passed very quickly. There is also a new highway being built now so this will cut down the journey. However, it was totally worth it. This place is amazing. You are away from all the hustle and bustle of Kandy, amongst beautiful flora and fauna in the hilly tea plantations covering 65 acres which are at your beck and call to explore. The sound of the birds in the morning is spectacular. People have complained about small lizards and mosquitoes, but what do you expect when you are at one with nature - just deal with it! I would thoroughly recommend this place, it is spotlessly clean, the homes bungalow where we stayed was extremely spacious, cleaned daily, with its own separate lounge with snooker table, dining area and garden. The food was plentiful, either buffet style or from set menus (varied) but either way it was delicious and accomodated all palates. The staff were extremely polite and attention to detail was incredible to ensure you stay was the best. The pool was cleaned daily, despite some reviews to the contrary, and this area was never over crowded with ample sun beds and towels provided. You are here to relax, away from TV's and hustle and bustle which is exactly what is given. There is a singer who plays background music at night whilst you sit and relax or you can play pool but dont expect other entertainment like shows as you will be disapoointed - but this is not what this resort is about. During the day, you can have guided walks to see the wonderful views, the tree or cinamon plantations or take a tour to nearby Kandy attractions which are very reasonable. You can enjoy massages etc with the health programme they run or just sit around the pool and relax. We were also given a guided tour of the cinamon plantation by the manager, free. We also spent New Years Eve here which again was a brillianttWe stayed at this hotel for 11 nights over the new year. The bungalow was extreamely spacious, kept spotlessly clean and had all the amenities needed for this fantastic relaxing holiday away from the busy town of Kandy. Whether in a group or a couple, the bungalow accommodates all needs with its own snooker table, dining area (you can eat there or with other guests in the main restaurant) lounge and large garden with sunbeds. It is quiet and away from other rooms. At one with Nature, this resort is ideal for walking or biking around, taking in the beautiful flora and fauna as well as the tea plantation which dates back to the colonial years. You can relax around the pool which was never over crowded and the service of the staff in every area is outstanding. The food was plentiful and of wide variety, sometimes a buffet and sometimes a set menu but either was always served by the efficient and courteous staff with attention to detail outstanding. This is a fabulous place to visit and we will definitely be returning for a longer visit. I cannot thank everyone at this resort for the fabulous memories which we will treasure forever. We also spent New Years Eve here and had a brilliant night. I cannot praise the staff and the resort enough, we had a fabulous holiday and would thoroughly recommend it to anyone who wants a totally relaxing holiday. We will definitely be returning for a longer stay.
