Stayed one night. It was a pleasant stay. We had an overly smelly (too strong of whatever air freshener they use) room so they let us sleep in the room next door. Both rooms had two single beds put together. Slept comfortably. Breakfast was simple but good. The pool is a nice amenity and the private beach is beautiful. Pleasant stay for one night.

Nice private beach, but the bridge to the beach failed. All of the rooms are ocean front but hidden by palm trees. Ants crawling in the room, and the toilet smells really bad.

Decent hotel with own private beach
This is a decent enough hotel - the bedroom and bathroom were a good size and well appointed, and there was a nice balcony. The pool was ok, but not enough space for many loungers. However the beach is beautiful and the staff were great. The hotel itself is a little isolated, so not many eating choices within walking distance and the food was ok but nothing special.

Great place to relax
Great place to spend your vacation. On the beach, with pool, palm trees, little river, friendly people and good food. The rooms are clean and the hotel staff would do anything to make your stay pleasant. They offered us a room to stay, after check out, until our drive to the airport arrived (free of charge!!!). I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone who wants to spend their vacation on a nice, quiet beach in Sri Lanka.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The staff was unfriendly at check in, which I have never experienced on my trip through Sri Lanka. It was all about charging the credit card as quickly as possible. The rooms need to be renovated, especially the bathroom, looks a bit outdated and not well maintained.

La plage de l’hôtel est superbe (transat gratuit+ service de nourriture et boisson sur la plage) et surtout très peu de monde . Le personnel est au petit soin avec vous. Les chambres sont spacieuses avec un grand balcon donnant sur l'océan (choisir un chambre au deuxième ou troisième étage pour la vue. Le restaurant est bien avec une nourriture copieuse. La ville est à coté (4 km) à 5 min de touctouc (1,5 euro le trajet) On a adoré.

Super Hotel direkt am Strand
Wir hatten das Hotel nahezu für uns alleine und daher war es eine umso persönlichere Atmosphäre. Das Personal war sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Es gab diverse Auswahlmöglichkeiten beim Frühstück und auch die Speisekarte war sehr umfangreich - selbstredend war das Essen äußerst lecker! Das Zimmer hatte einen tollen Blick auf den Pool und auch aufs Meer, was uns unsere letzten Tage in Sri Lanka zusätzlich versüßt hat. Der Strand des Hotels war immer sauber und wir konnten die Liegen des Hotels benutzen. Die Lage ist leicht südlich von Bentota und mit dem TukTuk in ca. 5 min erreichbar.

Jättefint hotell och lång och fin strand. Fanns inga direkta gångstråk på kvällen, så om man ville in till stan eller åka och äta någon annanstans fick man åka tuk-tuk. Funkade iofs bra också.
