It is located in the middle of nowhere, completely inaccessible by car. We had to walk a long distance on foot, during which we encountered wild animals — an extremely unsafe situation. Upon arrival, we were shocked to find that the entire facility was in a state of severe neglect. Mold was present everywhere — on the walls, ceilings, and even furniture. The conditions were absolutely unacceptable. We attempted to call ahead for information, but were blatantly lied to about the location, accessibility, and condition of the property. This was by far the worst experience we’ve ever had. We refused to stay overnight and left immediately. Do not be misled — this is not a hotel, and it is not suitable for any type of stay. ##### Arokiyarajah Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Ceylon Tea Trails - Relais and Chateaux - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Norwood-Hotels-Ceylon-Tea-Trails.h4045356.Hotel-Information) > > [98 Acres Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ella-Hotels-98-Acres-Resort-Spa.h15504051.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Sigiriya](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sigiriya-Hotels-Hotel-Sigiriya.h1609730.Hotel-Information) > > [Anantara Peace Haven Tangalle Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tangalle-Hotels-Anantara-Peace-Haven-Tangalle-Resort.h11229814.Hotel-Information) > > [Amaya Beach Pasikudah](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pasikuda-Hotels-Amaya-Beach-Pasikudah.h6780993.Hotel-Information) > > [EKHO Ella](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ella-Hotels-EKHO-Ella.h24327047.Hotel-Information) > > [Cinnamon Bey Beruwala](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Beruwala-Hotels-Cinnamon-Bey-Beruwala.h8256226.Hotel-Information) > > [Cinnamon Citadel Kandy](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kandy-Hotels-Cinnamon-Citadel-Kandy.h4031542.Hotel-Information) > > [Habarana Village by Cinnamon](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Habarana-Hotels-Habarana-Village-By-Cinnamon.h4031747.Hotel-Information) > > [Sun Siyam Pasikudah](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pasikuda-Hotels-Sun-Siyam-Pasikudah.h9272270.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Riu Sri Lanka - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ahungalla-Hotels-Hotel-Riu-Sri-Lanka-All-Inclusive.h14754284.Hotel-Information) > > [Amaya Hills Kandy](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kandy-Hotels-Amaya-Hills-Kandy.h1700850.Hotel-Information) > > [W15 Weligama](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Weligama-Hotels-W15.h11560777.Hotel-Information) > > [Sheraton Kosgoda Turtle Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kosgoda-Hotels-Sheraton-Kosgoda-Turtle-Beach-Resort.h48743974.Hotel-Information) > > [Maalu Maalu Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pasikuda-Hotels-Maalu-Maalu-Resort-Spa.h6504916.Hotel-Information) > > [Avani Kalutara Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kalutara-Hotels-Avani-Kalutara-Resort.h4031708.Hotel-Information) > > [Cinnamon Bentota Beach – Signature Selection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bentota-Hotels-Cinnamon-Bentota-Beach.h36466861.Hotel-Information) > > [Kahanda Kanda](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Angulugaha-Hotels-Kahanda-Kanda.h11263998.Hotel-Information) > > [Shangri-La Hambantota](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hambantota-Hotels-Shangri-La-Hambantota.h15083331.Hotel-Information) > > [Pandanus Beach Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Induruwa-Hotels-Pandanus-Beach-Resort-Spa.h11289546.Hotel-Information) > > [Vivanta Colombo, Airport Garden](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Seeduwa-Katunayake-Hotels-Vivanta-Colombo.h526350.Hotel-Information) > > [Weligama Bay Marriott Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Weligama-Hotels-Weligama-Bay-Marriott-Resort-Spa.h19413442.Hotel-Information) > > [Le Grand Galle](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Galle-Hotels-Le-Grand-Galle-By-Asia-Leisure.h24010679.Hotel-Information) > > [The Fortress Resort & Spa Galle](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Koggala-Hotels-The-Fortress-Resort-Spa.h7821441.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westbury Palace](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nuwara-Eliya-Hotels-The-Westbury-Palace.h48402950.Hotel-Information) > > [The Sun House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Galle-Hotels-The-Sun-House.h15677263.Hotel-Information) > > [Taj Bentota Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bentota-Hotels-Taj-Bentota-Resort-Spa.h581365.Hotel-Information) > > [go camping](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Go-Camping.h23256271.Hotel-Information) > > [Cinnamon Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Habarana-Hotels-Cinnamon-Lodge.h1854476.Hotel-Information) ---
