Hotell med pool i Kandalama

“Large resort with fantastic grounds, nice pool. Very pleasant rooms in small cottages, very quiet, birdlife. Geared at tour groups, but OK for individual travellers as well. Own transport needed. Excellent, but rather expensive, buffé. Single dishes also possible though. Somewhat impersonal due to its size. Sometimes rather confused, but always friendly, staff. To our disappointment the promised naturist/ornithologist was unfortunately "on leave". Beware also that their drivers' accommodation is...

“Beautiful setting. I was a bit confused about advertised lake who is actually not on the property and holds little for guests. Pool area was wonderful very quiet with trees and birds. Heinz was most helpful in sugges outings and arranging driver.

“Sad case of lovely hotel falling into decay after Covid. We four were only guests for our two day stay. Staff could not do enough but could not find booking, pool very neglected and rooms although enormous could do with a large amount of tender loving care. One I hope succeeds in the future.”

À améliorer : le Check in où il n y avait personne à l arrivée, et comme notre chambre était pas prete, nous avons dû revenir et toujours personne donc un peu d attente. La lenteur et la qualité des plats du restaurant. ”

“Very welcoming and pleasant environment ”

“Zeer fraai park met huisjes, groot zwembad, attent personeel. Ligt in rustig gebied iets verder van winkeltjes en de lion rock”
