    Nicely decorated hotel, very good service, and amazing value. Nicely decorated units with the jacuzzi, a great view, for example, and best staff. Peaceful location, a few steps away from everywhere. Real good stay in really quiet area...

    Title: Amazing time with friends!

    Only thing missing for some crazy fun was a party scene. It would have been epic to have a sick rooftop bar or a happening club nearby.

    Beautiful property, comfortable rooms, friendly staff, reasonable alcohol prices. Limited food menu, but understandable for a small hotel. Stunning architecture, well-maintained gardens. Secluded beach within walking distance.

    The service at the hotel was absolutely mind-blowing right from the start. We were greeted with cool towels and refreshing drinks, and the staff were incredibly helpful throughout our stay. The villa, although a short tuk-tuk ride from the town, was worth it. The staff arranged tuk-tuks for us whenever we needed and even packed our breakfast for our early departure. The hotel itself is something special, surrounded by green jungle and offering superb service. The staff, especially Mr. Ranjan Rai, went above and beyond to fulfill our wishes. The dinner we had at the hotel was the best fish we had during our entire trip. The hotel has a lovely pool that compensates for the lack of a beach. It is also conveniently close to the beautiful town with its impressive fort. The staff, including our kind waiter with his excellent English, made our stay even more enjoyable. The room was amazing, although there were a few spiders inside. we had a memorable experience and would definitely want to come back. The setting and architecture had a charming English colonial style, and the rooms were spacious and comfortable, with a luxurious bathroom and a swimming pool. The property had a serene and calming atmosphere, perfect for relaxation. The manager, Ajith Kamara, was fantastic and went above and beyond for us and other guests. The breakfast, lunch, and dinner were delicious, and the views from the balconies were breathtaking. The staff were attentive and made sure we had everything we needed.

    I was pleasantly surprised by the level of service at The Postcard. When I arrived, I was informed that they didn't serve alcohol, but the staff went above and beyond by offering to go to a nearby shop to buy some for me. This showed their great attitude and dedication to customer satisfaction. Additionally, the restaurant provided a delicious meal on my first evening, and they happily accommodated my request to have breakfast outside by my room. The peaceful atmosphere made me feel like I had the place to myself at times. I had a wonderful stay and would highly recommend this hotel.

The hotel offers a private and tranquil getaway for couples, with spacious rooms and comfortable beds. The staff is friendly and attentive, ensuring a pleasant stay.

    I had the most luxurious and peaceful stay at this hotel. The hotel facilities were top-notch, with a beautiful swimming pool and serene gardens. The staff was extremely helpful and friendly, always making sure that I had everything I needed. Additionally, the location of this hotel was perfect, just a stone's throw away from the beach.

    Hard to think of anything.
