All other activity photographs are lies, too. There was the photograph which appeared of the bathtub, but was that the stopcock of the bathtub was broken and bathed in a shower in a bathtub. I had the air-conditioner was broken, and another room change it. India and the model of the characteristic of Sri Lanka not to cure the broken thing. There are six rooms, but there are the room where there is not a shower curtain in the bath shower room where the room number indication is gone and the room which there is, and Room 2 and Room 3 maintain nothing. Though I ordered a cuttlefish dish from dinner, prawns dish comes out. I hardly explain the reason. A place runs in the winding in the village windingly, and it is hard to understand it, and there is not at all the signboard of the hotel name at the entrance of the hotel, too. It is the hotel with the lowest terrible lie everything. ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### Richard 20 Feb 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Sapphire Holiday Resort Amazing value for money! Pleasant helpful staff. Food varied according to chef from superb (We had one of the best meals of our trip here) to slightly disappointing, food cool, sandwiches a bit curly. Handy location for Ratnapura and its busy gem dealers. Wifi fine, though no pool. Photos of activities slightly naughty as they are not on site or within walking distance. We had a very pleasant stay here. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/s1275-p3d63f3d0-f76f-11e6-b340-cea531f716f3-original.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Richard ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tracey 10 Jan 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great price, friendly service Good sized room for one, a little small for two.
