We had read many reviews praising the location and hospitality of the staff, and it certainly did not disappoint. We had arrived here after about 10 days in the hill country, and so we had to acclimatise to the increased temperature, but it was lovely to have meals served on the verandah overlooking the ocean. There is little to do in the immediate vicinity of the hotel, although walks to nearby villages are interesting. However, the hotel is just off the Galle Road, with a constant stream of buses to all locations up and down the coast, including Galle, Ambalangoda and Bentota. This makes it easy to explore other parts of the coast. A particularly enjoyable trip, arranged by the hotel, was to Lunuganga, the weekend retreat of the late architect Geoffrey Bawa, who designed the house (now a hotel in the same group as Kumu Beach) and the extensive gardens. We mainly ate Sri Lankan food, which was excellent, and the chef was very willing to meet requests for off-menu items, such as prawns and calamari. Thanks to all the staff for making our stay so enjoyable.
