Amazing paradise holiday

Perth, Australia

Stayed here for six nights on the half board option. Totally fantastic and more than we have hoped for. The staff go over and above what is expected and are so helpful. We had Sachindu Madushan looking after us and he was brilliant. Even teaching us a few words in Sri Lankan. The people are so friendly and do not rip you off even though you expect them too. The hotel is clean and the food was exceptional with a different theme every night. With three hours of free drinks with your evening meal. We had more than enough food and drink for the day. Definitely want to come back to see everyone again. Thank you Centara for making our holiday perfect.

Top of the bill

This was the last plave we stayed at during our Sri Lana roundtrip. What a delight it was. The setting on the peninsula in between the river and the ocean. Large pool with poolbar, a very large restaurant with excellent food. Beautifull spa with relaxing treatments. Excellent staff all over the place. Wish we could have stayed here a few days longer.
