    The booking made through Booking .com confirmed we needed a third bed and had been confirmed by the hotel but it hadn’t been actioned. Unfortunately my children’s room was in a separate block across the road from ours which I was not happy about but the hotel said they couldn’t move them. This maybe was my fault for booking the separate rooms but using Booking .com site I could not see the layout of the hotel. But the hotel should have picked up on the family ages from my booking and made a recommendation to put us at least in the same building. There was only one working socket point in room 209 and took 2 days to get an extension lead The air conditioning unit did not work initially in that room and also broke again and leaked over my sons bed and was not fixed before we left. Breakfast was interesting as the staff eat before guests have finished and the choice is very sparse if you go after 930 ( breakfast finishes at 10) Service was friendly but slow in the restaurant at other times. The sea current is strong and lots of rubbish due to proximity of river joining sea - go to Mirissa or weligama for better sea and beach

    The staff were great - particularly the security man who looked after us as my children’s room was in a different block to ours across the road. THe events manager was brilliant and went out of his way to ensure we had everything we needed. The pool guy Sampath was lovely as were the two bar men. The rooms were clean and so were the public areas. The New Year’s Day activities were great fun. The pool is lovely and kept well. They hatch turtle eggs and release them into the ocean

    The facility needs to organize tuk tuk for its guests as it's a little far from the centre. Hotel stuff needs to develop qualities of hospitality management.

    Excellent location with great view of ocean. Modern & Clean property within Nature . Rooms are spacious & cosy. If someone is looking for a staycation away from a busy hectic life, this resort is for you. Best for relaxation with a great swimming 🏊‍♀️ pool & Gym. Great breakfast & Sea facing rooms will give you peace of mind.

    the staff were pretty rigid about a lot of things! felt like they had no flexibility to do anything to accommodate guest requests and instead had to follow a set routine / process

    main property looks nice, lagoon view property is older and a bit random but still rooms were clean and value for money

    The location is NOT on Mirissa Beach and is somewhat isolated. My room had a nice bathroom although the hotel is rather old. There are bay view rooms outside of the hotel complex which didn't look so nice.

    The pool was very nice, breakfast was also very good. We received an upgrade to a seaview room. The room was very large and spotlessly clean. The hotel is located right on the beach.

    The restaurant is quite slow if you order food. The food is just ok.

    We stayed at Mandara resort for 3 nights. It has private beach which is quite serene and beautiful. The location is absolutely perfect. The rooms are clean. The staff was quite prompt to upgrade our rooms to sea facing rooms. Its quite close to main road and its easy to find transport to nearby places or market area. The breakfast spread is also good.
