Best place in Sri Lanka
Reviewed February 10, 2023
Beautiful course with a stream and water that comes into play on several fairways.
Course and greens are in good shape, the discounts so-so.
Caddying is mandatory (LKR 4,000.00 + tip) but is helpful to play on the correct lanes.
Great wildlife alongside the golf game (iguanas, peacocks and various waterfowl on the course and lagoon).

Great golf
Reviewed April 29, 2022
After victoria and Nuwara Elia here today - it's the best of the 3 places
Great but narrow fairways, great greens
The first 4 holes to warm up and then the water starts...
Cart only to drive on the paths, to 2. played the course in 3 hours (we were alone on the square)
Hotel: great rooms, super buffet and breakfast
Beer: Lions beer (0.65 l) costs 900 rupees - the rate is 350, so it makes: 2.57 euros
Otherwise it is a 5 star hotel

It takes more time...
Reviewed January 21, 2019
It takes even more time... could take a long time Individual fairways (always quite tight) are OK, but a significant part unacceptable, whole fairways GUR, a par 5 hole played as par 3, this deficit can not make up for good pitching greens The hotel Shangri-la has class, the SriLankis loving and sympathetic about everything, the food was great, but please... for playing golf think twice Harry Lauber, Hcp 5.8

Still needs some time
Reviewed December 11, 2016
Part of the first mid-year 2016 opened luxury resort of Shangrilla hotel chain. Great area by the sea and several lakes. The fantastic shade still needs some time, the place is often very dry since. In a low rainfall and relatively windy area Dzt. little recorded, best played early in the morning because of the strong sunlight, as yet relatively little shading is present, but it surely will improve more and more.
Interestingly, not quite simple course with z. T relatively narrow fairways and plenty of water and bunker hazards, par 70, blue ( "professional") tee 5584m, men 5276, women with 4045 m clearly shorter. Semi Rough and Vorgrüns quite high cut and very difficult to play. The green fee rate is usually included in the hotel price, but in addition there are mandatory cart and caddy fees that make up the added taxes and charges quite high, that affects the whole pricing of high-quality hotels, also of very pleasant 19-Hole restaurants. Examples: price for a beer about 1300 Rup, almost 10 € depending on the exchange rate..
