I cannot say enough great things about The Petals. It was a little slice of paradise. We stayed for 8 days and barely left the villa as it was so nice. Everything has been so well thought out and considered, the design is fabulous with good quality linens and bedding and everything is just so comfortable. The gardens are lush with so much wildlife kicking about: peacocks, monitor lizards, our very own turtle, so many birds...it was just gorgeous. The swimming pool was perfect with views over the paddy fields. Upul and Jagath, who look after you while you're there, are both so wonderful and make sure that your every need is catered for. Upul cooks all your meals for you and he is the most amazing chef. Seriously the best food we ate during our whole trip to Sri Lanka. I cannot recommend The Petals highly enough and I will definitely be back!!
