Pearl Divers Beachfront Apartment

This was such a beautiful place to stay- it was perfect for our famiky with 2 teens. Stunning location - thank you!!!

We loved iy

Cool environment with loads of divers and diving instructors. Large apartment on 2 floors with 3 double beds, a kitchen and two bathrooms. Lovely view from both terraces right on to the beach. Cool and supportive management. Great restaurant next door called Black & White. For front dining, feet in the sand reserve.

Busy beach offering a feeling of being in Sochi (Russia), definitely not my cup of tea. By rights they have to offer the long chairs for free but they ask for around EU 8 per day (of ordering food) for two including parasols and long chairs (fine). No coffee available from the restaurant since opening late only. Wifi didn’t work (well enough). Water cleanliness sometimes questionable.

Loved that it was beachfront. Location, location, location. It is about a 10 minute walk down the beach to get to the main restaurants/beach bars. It is also very big and roomy, and modern the pictures don't do it justice, it is a beautiful property. The staff at the bar and dive centre are there if you need anything. The owner is very responsive and helpful. We asked if there was a toaster and she had one there within minutes. Same with rubbish we mentioned it, and one of the boys came up and took it for us.

It is extremely noisy at night. We were woken up by the stray beach dogs every night with their barking and howling, the joys of beachfront living in Sri Lanka! The street noise with constant tooting etc. is also very bad and makes sleeping hard (this would be the same with alot of the hotels that are on the main street, unless they were set back from the road). Both of these issues are out of the owner's control. If you are a solid sleeper you will have no problems. Or just drink more so you are in a deep sleep! The dive school is at the bottom of the villa, so there can be alot of people around downstairs and in the pool. You couldn't really use the pool for leisure, people were either around or in it and there was no-where to sit around it. The beach is just there though, so it wasn't a big issue.

Wir waren zu viert und hatten sehr virl Platz verteilt auf zwei Etagen.

Im Grunde genommen nichts. Die Betten im unteren Stock waren etwas hart, aber kein Problem.
