Hotel a Hapugala

“The place is app 15 minutes drive from the fort and the area is rather rural. The hotel has no restaurant and it is quite dirty. Especially the pool. The owners are very sweet and sericeminded but dont speak English. But they help you with everything. Unfortunately you CANNOT pay by card.

“nice staff ”

“Our room Suite 1 was fantastic with a beautiful view to the sea, you could listen to the crashing waves.”

They also stored our luggage for us when we went out to explore town. The hotel is a heritage Dutch colonial house, and we appreciated the rich history this place preserves.”
