Elements Beach & Nature Resort

For Anyone Considering a Stay I would like to share my recent experience at Kapiti. The area operates on two seasons: the off-season and the main season. We visited in April, and it seemed quite empty during our stay. The property itself has a lovely view and plenty of space. However, the cleanliness was not up to my expectations; I found lizard droppings in both the room and the bathroom. The swimming pool was quite neglected, filled with algae, so we opted not to use it. As for dining options, the hotel has limited offerings. The Alacarte menu is only available from 1 PM to 3:30 PM, and outside those hours, no meals are served. The only snacks available were french friese, cashews, roasted coconut, and a couple of others. There was no room service, so I had to retrieve everything myself, and the staff wasn't particularly helpful. For dinner, our choices were limited to a basic rice and curry dish with only one seafood option, at a cost of 3,900 per adult. There wasn’t much flexibility in the menu. Additionally, the room lacked air conditioning, making it quite uncomfortable at night. Whenever I raised concerns, the response was that this establishment is designed for foreign guests and aimed at embracing a nature-oriented concept. I would recommend exploring other accommodations if you're considering a stay at this hotel.

After initial blip with the accommodation ( my fault) we were reroomed to a lagoon villa. The villa was spacious with a very comfortable bed and mosquito net and outdoor shower. There was a limited choice of buffet food for breakfast and dinner but all was tasty and freshly prepared. The beach was clean with plenty of umbrellas for shade. All staff were friendly and helpful. Overall a perfect place for a laid back restful holiday. Thank you so much to the owner for re rooming us . It certainly made such a difference to the start of our Sri Lankan holiday.
