This place is amazing in every way. From the moment you step in the doors, you know you are somewhere special. The location is amazing as are the views overlooking the ocean. The staff here are exceptional and always go above and beyond to help you in any way. A special mention to Thejani and Suban for consistently providing us with the best service possible and making my son feel very special. The food here is 5 star, with Jagarth as the head chef who comes out everynight to talk with guests. I can not recomend this hotel high enough. We had an amazing and memorable stay. Thankyou so much the Fortress Resort and Spa.

We had an amazing 3-night stay at this beautiful resort and couldn’t have been happier with our experience. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel so welcome with their genuine friendliness and outstanding hospitality. The food was delicious, the surroundings were beautiful, and everything was clean, comfortable, and well maintained. We truly enjoyed every moment of our stay and have nothing but positive things to say. A big thank you to the entire team for making our visit so memorable. We would highly recommend this resort to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway and would love to return in the future.
