… with some extra guests hanging around, one gently ambling by, and fishermen plying their trade in the Parakrama Samudra – “the Sea of King Parakrama” – this being 29 square miles of five reservoirs, one of which the hotel fronts. 

A completely different type of establishment to the pure luxury of the Uga Bay Resort, this three star hotel was chosen for its lakeside view and super location within Sri Lanka’s Cultural Triangle, reducing the need for travel and allowing the more relaxed nature of this holiday to continue.  As you might gather from watermelon juice by the pool and a game of Uno following today’s breakfast, this is exactly what’s happening – even if yesterday we were up before 6am to climb Sigirya; more about that, shortly.
