“The biggest draw is the resort's location right on Palatupana Beach, giving you private access and striking views. Although the rooms are basic, the sound of the waves and the sea breeze are definite perks. The staff seems dedicated to making the most of a somewhat isolated setting, with home-cooked meals getting high marks.”
