The Extras That Matter

Curated Facilities

Every facility we offer serves a specific purpose: to make your time here easier, more enjoyable, or more memorable. We simply provide what actually adds value to your visit.

Swimming Pool

A well-maintained 4-foot-deep pool. Perfectly sized to cool off, float, and forget about everything else for a while. Free for all overnight and day-out guests.

Bolgoda Boat Ride

A 45-minute journey along the river. It isn't a tourist attraction—it's a perspective shift. See the landscape unfold and experience a meditation you didn't know you needed.

Photo Locations

Designated areas where the light hits right and compositions come together naturally. Free access for all guests, because capturing memories shouldn't come with a surcharge.

High Tea by the River

Select a platter, find a good table by the water, and spend an afternoon doing absolutely nothing urgent. Perfect for catch-ups, quiet dates, or solo afternoons.

We also offer ample, stress-free parking and thoughtful Gift Vouchers for your loved ones.
