    The staff at the resort were extremely friendly and welcoming, always wearing a smile. the location, right by the lake, was stunning, and the surrounding garden added to the beauty. the dinner and breakfast served were absolutely delicious, exceeding our expectations. Bandara, our tour guide, was knowledgeable and provided us with a detailed and incredible tour of Sigiria. He went above and beyond to ensure our safety and even found us when we got lost in the forest. He was the best guide and friend we've had in Sri Lanka.

    Felt extremely happy, no complaints whatsoever.

    What a wonderful Easter weekend getaway! The room was spacious and clean, with a big bathroom and a balcony. It was so nice to sit outside in the morning and evening, taking in the peaceful surroundings. The location was perfect, quiet yet close to the town center and a supermarket within walking distance. The highlight was definitely the beautiful lake, right in front of the property. We loved sitting on the viewing deck, soaking in the tranquility. The hosts were amazing, serving us delicious traditional Sri Lankan breakfast and offering laundry services.

    There were just a couple of minor inconveniences during our stay. The fan in our room wasn't working at first, but it was quickly fixed by the attentive staff.

    The value for money at Shashin Lake Resort was excellent. The room was clean, spacious, and had a lovely terrace where we could relax and enjoy the beautiful surroundings.

    The breakfast could have been improved with a wider variety of options.

    The rooms at Shashin Lake Resort are simply amazing! They have a private bathroom with a refreshing shower and free toiletries. The mountain view from the rooms is breathtaking, and I loved waking up to it every morning. The terrace is a great spot to enjoy the view and relax. The rooms are also spacious and cozy, with a nice seating area where you can unwind after a long day of exploring. The air-conditioning keeps everything cool and comfortable. The balcony is perfect for enjoying a cup of tea or coffee while taking in the surroundings. I also appreciated having a flat-screen TV and free wifi in the room.

    It was a minor inconvenience for me, but I can understand that others might not mind it or find it useful for their needs.

    I had an amazing stay at this hotel! The location was perfect, right in front of a small lake with a beautiful view. The room was super clean and the hotel facilities were great. The staff were so friendly and accommodating, even offering transportation to nearby tourist areas at a cheaper price. The breakfast they served every morning was delicious and made me feel right at home. this hotel provides a peaceful and serene environment, perfect for unwinding after a day of sightseeing.

    Nothing at all.
