Hello,

My mum and dad and myself and my boyfriend have booked to stay in the browns beach resort from the 8th till the 22nd of november. now we do realise that this is the monsoon season and we are prepared for the rain ! I have been to sri lanka once before and like many others fell in love with the magic of this country. our aim for our holiday is puerly to enjoy the counry and have a break from working together.

I just wonderd if from experiance there would be any chance of some sunny days at all during this time ? ! and would we still be able to go on trips etc giving the rainy weather ? !

No worries if this is jst totally unpredictable! i jst thought id ask.

Also bit concerned about the browns beach - we are fine with 3 star and happy with reviews ...we'd heard that they were doing-up the rooms level by level and just wonderd if anyone knew if that has happend or not ! i dnt want to be greeted with an awfull bathroom ! - everything else im fine with lol

Thanks

Ashton : ) xxx

Hi there.....

Yes, you will see some rain in November, but how much?, well whoever can tell that with any accuracy at this time of course would be a wealthy person.

NO it will not rain every day all day, most likely you will get some hefty downpours late afternoon and evening time, well that is what it did last November when i was in Lanka, but you will still see some nice sunny times too, and ofr day trips, well should not be a problem either.

Sorry, cannot help with the Browns Beach part of the post, but here is the General Manager's e-mail address at Browns, so maybe nearer the time drop him a little request for nice room ok !

mail address:

gmbrowns@sltnet.lk

Hope this helps !

Regards

Dave
