Well I think the resort will not be full so I would take a chance and see if you get upgraded to a ocean front suite when booking a hillside suite. There are new GM's so maybe F&B will have more of a selection but with the current situation in Sri Lanka I doubt it. Get in and out of the airport quickly and take notice of the fox holes around the runway with the little men inside, their machine guns pointed at you as you taxi down the runway. I felt safe last year while there but they did close down Amangalla when the Tamil Tigers launched a attack on the navy in Galle Harbor, it really felt like a war then.
