WHISKY POINT RESORT
This page is intended to help you decide if the experience we offer is suitable for you. Please read it carefully to know what to expect and avoid any disappointment before making your reservation.
Sand
We are set right on the beach and there is lots of sand. We do have grass patches with rinsing stations at each cabana/restaurant/yoga shala and several out door showers for you to remove the sand before step in your clean room.
Wildlife
We are situated in a wildlife territory and lagune area you may encounter monkeys, squirrels, snakes, elephants, crocodiles, any kind of insects and surfers.
Food and Snaking
Please avoid to keep food, fruits, cookies in your room. By doing so, you prevent unwanted visitors like squirrels/insects to not steal your goodie and leaving a mess in your room.
Ac, Fan and Temperature
None of our cabanas have air conditioning. Whisky Point enjoys an almost permanent sea breeze and the open airy concept of our cabanas with traditional grass roofing keeps it cool all day long. The addition of the fan is usually more than enough to grant a very comfortable temperature.
Towels & Linen
We do provide towels & linen for all accommodations. They are changed once in 3 days or at your request. No charge.
Party and noise and disturbance
We have the chance of enjoying a quite remote situation from the beating core of the village while being easily accessible. Our neighbors do a Party once a week on Fridays (They are pretty noise). So there is noise then. Apart from that it’s tranquil all the time.
Keeping Your belongings safe
We have 24/7 security cameras and A full time security guard rotation. Rooms have lockers and Pagodas have Lock boxes so all belongings are 100% safe. Not that it’s unsafe in any way. It’s just an added feature for peace of mind.
As we are an exclusive boutique resort. Only residents or invited guests at any time.
Chill and relaxed.
Low season or rather no surf season
Please be aware that even if Pottuvil area is one of the driest spots in Sri Lanka, we also have a wet season from November to end of January, and we do get tropical showers. Most are short and you will get enough sun everyday to get fair enough sunburns but we may also have full rainy days once in a while. A beach resort with open cabanas. If you need full sunny days, large crowds of tourists, parties, perfect waves, etc., wait for the high season to visit us. On the other hand, if you want to see the flip side of the postcard, enjoy the silence, the wildlife, explore the surroundings for example: Kumana Park, Kudimbigala temple on your own, observe the fishing and rice farming activities at their peak and much more, come and visit us during the low season, your experience couldn’t be more genuine and we have special seasonal rates
