Taru Villas Mawella - Tangalle

Friendly staff & nice food

WiFi was bit slow.

Really the perfect hideaway!

Beautiful setting Fabulous pool villa, furnishings were fantastic. We appreciated the fresh tea and milk in the room( rather than tea bags and creamer). The main communal areas were also beautifully laid out and furnished. Peacocks, kingfishers, monkeys, monitor lizards and ‘chipmunks’ around the hotel and grounds which were beautiful to see. Beach front and had two pools. A small hotel so was lovely and quiet. Great to be able to use the bodyboards - especially as it rained most of the time! Perfectly placed to see sunrise had it not been cloudy. Staff were extremely attentive , friendly and helpful. Sam and Donald amongst others were very engaging. The food was excellent.

The taxi to the hotel and the one we booked for departure found it hard to find (a plus point in many ways), but the security guard didn’t help as he said we weren’t at the hotel when we had found it.

Close to the ocean

Food was average and expensive

Direkt am Meer, schöne Zimmer und Pool. Das Essen war sehr gut und auch die Drinks. Kann ich nur emofehlen besondwrs das Curry. Personal ist sehr herzlich und zuvorkommend. Das Frühstück ist bombastisch.

Eigentlich war alles bestens, einzig die Sprach (englisch) wird nur von einem bis zwei Personen gesprochen, was etwas Schade ist.

Wunderschöne ruhig gelegene Anlage.

Preise im Hotel verhältnismässig teuer.

Мы снимали виллу Кurumba, нам важно было наличие кухни. Сама вилла стоит уединенно, веранда с диванами, удобная кровать, но кухня… все портила. Брали полупансион, нам повезло, шеф-повар был 2 из 3-х дней нашего пребывания. В его дни еда была очень вкусной! Далее было достойно, но обычно и просто. Персонал постоянно следит для порядком, убирают территорию, если дождь, даже ночью, все пляжную мебель накрывают и убирают матрасы. Пляж прекрасен. Это бухта с минимальным количеством людей, широкая полоса для прогулок. Лодки местных жителей и они не мешают. Есть что-то типа сапов, можно покататься на волнах

Кухня! Это отдельная комната на вилле, с отдельным входом. Очень и очень устаревшая, много бестолковой посуды, тарелки, бокалы, стаканы…. А посуды для плиты почти нет и та что есть- «убитая». Включить плиту-тот еще квест, к нам пришел сотрудник и не с первого раза включил. В общем-готовить на ней почти не возможно. Если бы не кухня на вилле и еда в последний день с другим поваром, можно было бы поставить и10 баллов

Rooms are absolutely fabulous, the bathroom in particular. Thepool is amazing. All the hard qualities are there for a comfortable stay. Received a home made popsicle on arrival which was a nice and novel touch, compared to the many fruit juices we've been served at other places. We liked the option for dinner and breakfast at our private terrace.

Food was mediocre at best. During dinner we were served a warm bottle of rose, staff insisted it came from the fridge. Restaurant options were fairly limited, and during our stay various things were out of stock (such as the local beer?). The supplement for half board was not that much, so in that sense perhaps one should not expect as much, however, the quality of the F&B side of things did just not align with the overall resort experience. Staff was nice but not trained up to the standards one may expect from such a resort.
