Bliss .. and welcome stay on way to Yala
We arrived after a exhausting week in Colombo attending a famous cricket match. The setting at South Point Ocean is spectacular and idyllic. Large, temperature controlled, beach front pool that leads to a soft sandy beach at end of the bay. Nobody. apart from us used this almost private corner. The rooms in this 3 storey large building were incredibly spacious and well maintained. Hot water always. AC were very chilling. I didnt use the TV. The Internet relies on 4G router which allowed my daughter to connect to her school for 'video lessons'. No complaints.
Although there are other villas next door, owned by same family: we barely saw or heard other guests. Apart from out family and friends, nobody else used the unoccupied suites across 3 floors in this 7 suite property.
The fully staffed villa allowed meals to requested to order - both western and traditional Sri Lanka. We requested a line caught Tuna to be purchased. This served Sashimi for 5 and used for grilled and curry on meals later in the day. Its not normal to keep food overnight - be specific if you need something held for next day. Portions are large. we were told to communicate with House Keeper if we wanted anything, including level of attention. Some prefer the house boys (neigh butlers) to be always present a few feet away which is normal for a Sri Lanka family and others prefer to call them /ring a bell when needed.
Overall, we make this is regular stay after the event in Colombo. We will definitely be staying here agin... and trying the other properties within this cluster.
