Great sized pool on the beach but you need to walk along from there to public beach and beyond as you cannot swim from hotel beach as it is coral. Limited options to dine outside of hotel as pubs and restaurants few and far between Transport on leaving hotel difficult to arrange though tuk tuk drivers outside hotel really helpful with this

A hidden gem next to bustly Kandy! The staff is great, always looking to please guest. They had recommended to rent a tuk-tuk for the day with a local and we enjoyed all the visits. We were also very pleased to swim in the pool after the visits. Thanks!

Do I need a visa for my Kandy holiday?
Visa requirements for Kandy vary based on your nationality and the reason for your visit. Check official government websites to determine if you need a visa for your trip. They’ll also give you the most up-to-date information, including details about application procedures or supporting documentation you might need. Enquire about your visa requirements in advance to ensure a smooth travel experience. Finally, check to see that your passport is valid for a further six months from your return date.
