Polgahawela Holidays from AU$1,526

Th

We took the Family residence suit, was very spacious, clean, super view, with a private access to the beach. Paid premium price, But was it worth it for that price, Not really. We had half board, food was good. The property is old, the doors hasn't got key less entry. Overall i would give a 7 out of 10.

Amazing property, great location and great service! I am here with the extended family, we have almost 10 people and the hotel has been super receptive to our needs and accommodative. The rooms are large and well maintained. Dhilini and Chamindi were specially great, they remembered our anniversary and tried to make it special.

It was a strange vibe. The staff were all so lovely, but the person in charge at reception felt like she made everyone bothered. Reception was always chaotic. Even trying to pay our bill was a major carryon with about 3 or 4 people involved. Dining staff were wonderful, dinner was not, though breakfast buffet was very good. Room was tiny and dark, bed very comfy. Bathroom felt bigger than room! Pool was ok, very shallow & not at all like the photos vibe. and pool area terrace etc was unfinished. Location was middle of nowhere & a 15 min drive to other food options.

We enjoyed our stay at Kahanda Kanda. It is a small resort and on arrival were shown to our room, the Garden room which was nice on first impression. However we woke to find ants all over our bed which was not acceptable. Housekeeping promptly changed the bedding but within half an hour they were back so we were moved for our second night to the Mango room. There was no comparison between the two rooms as the first had been dark with no view and the second was lighter with a veranda overlooking the tea plantation. We felt happier with the change and it was thankfully ant free! Breakfast was lovely sitting overlooking the jungle and watching wild monkeys swinging through the trees. Food was ok with a set menu or à la carte. We were transferred to the sister hotel KK Beach by tuk tuk for a few nights to finish our holiday and guests have the option of going to the beach resort for the day. It is nice you can alternate between the two.
