Gorgeous Colonial Hotel, we love the Sunday Brunch by the Pool with live Jazz Band, sumptuous buffet, paying for lunch allows you to swim too. The beach is crowded on Sundays so this is a wonderful way to spend a Sunday.

It is a beautiful story about British governor's love life with a local dancer. The tunnel and underground bedroom they used to secretly meet is still intact. The story is depicted by beautiful paintings on the wall. Worth watching. All this is free, no entrance fee. This place also owns a picturesque private beach which is bonus. Private beaches are very rare in the world!

Go for Sunday lunch. You won't get much better Sri Lankan food. Check it is open post covid.
