A very nice place straight to the sea, with a lot of history first by the Portuguese and then the Dutch. All very well taken care of.

Did a road trip all over Sri Lanka starting from Colombo to Galle, to Weligama, to Kandy, to Nuwara Iliya to Colombo. Sameer was our driver and I must say that he is one of the most accommodating persons I have ever met. He never said No to any of our demands. I went with my wife and we felt extremely comfortable all along the trip. Would strongly recommend him to anyone who wishes to see travel around Srilanka. They’re a photo of me and my wife with him. :)
Excellent service provider
