“What strikes me is the rooftop wellness spa, poised high above Negombo Beach. It's a family-friendly spot with thoughtful touches, like a dedicated children's buffet, but I would head straight for the organic garden - the source of fresh ingredients that elevate the dining. The dining is what makes the hotel special.”
