We were driving our rented tuktuk from galle to negombo and decided to break the journey up in two days, so we spent one night here. And no regrets because this place was wonderful! The design of the area is peaceful and beautiful, the pool is well-kept without the overwhelming chlorine scent and the staff is friendly and helpful (when it rained they laid out umbrellas at our door!). It all made for a relaxing afternoon of lounging and swimming. The rooms are very clean and spacious, perfect ac and room climate. The bathroom deserves its own mention because there is a waterfall shower which feels luxerious and relaxing! We had dinner and breakfast here and both were very good. I loved the chicken and cheese kottu while my bf found the fish and chips tasty. The fries were thin and crispy! Couldn’t recommend this place enough!

After nearly one month of travelling I arrived to Sea Pink and wow! It became clear, I saved the best for last. Beautiful guesthouse, luxurious feel, comfortable and spotless. And if that wasn’t enough 😁 The family makes you feel like a friend right away. No language barriers, even their sweet 3year-old son speaks English. I chose the Sri Lankan breakfast and every morning a sumptuous table of delicious food and fruits was set up for me. The location is a short 5min stroll to the most beautiful beaches along the west coast. Highly recommend this special place if you visit Bentota.

Cinnamon Bentota doesn't feel like a hotel. It feels like you're being hosted by a dear friend, or by close family. Everything little detail is thoughtful, inviting and makes you feel special and loved. You're immediately greeted with the unmistakable 'living in harmony with nature' architecture of Geoffrey Bawa and the beautifully designed spaces that you'll find all over the property, including a gorgeous natural rock pool, an quaint bar, or the Bloom Room which is perfect for an intimate high-tea or a quiet, private celebration. The lavish spread at breakfast, lunch and dinner reminds you of family get-togethers, and features all the classic Sri Lanka delicacies - hoppers, string hopper, curries, endless varieties of sambal; as well as european dishes. The chef on request even whipped up the traditional 'Lamprais' for us even though it isn't on the menu. But what lies at the heart of Cinnamon is their excellent staff. Be it the ever smiling Sulochana who heads Guest Relations, Priyantha who looks after F&B or Janaka, Kavidu, Dimuthu at the speciality sea-food restaurant. They are what makes Cinnamon Bentota what it is.

I rate a 10/10, because you can't put more, Cause it really is one of the few places that I have felt like home. Both Nelson and Alex, have been super attentive at all times, and their hospitality (also of their staff) have been truly charming. I want to highlight two things that we loved, the pool in the middle of the rooms, and above all Mr. Chef, Nelson himself is a spectacular cooker. It is also really appreciated the great attention they have given us at all times. Being away from home and being able to stay in places like this is really satisfying and comforting. If we return to Sri Lanka one day, we will surely stay at La Perla

Great room with a nice balcony with river view, good airco, nice shower, good bed. Friendly owner who offers a free transport to the other side of the lake, where you have access to the beautiful Ventura beach. This beach is easily one of the best beaches we have seen in Sri Lanka: unspoiled, tranquil, very nice zand, cute waves... just incredible! Make sure you get there to enjoy this still widely unknown hidden gem.

Lunuganga is absolutely beautiful, and the staff make the experience better than you could ever imagine. The food is really fantastic and bonus services like room service and late breakfasts made for an amazing stay. I cannot stress enough how incredible this place is - forget about the high price for Sri Lanka, it is worth every penny! Breakfast is included and it is a HUGE breakfast probably normally worth $30, so this is a great addition. The rooms were so comfortable, excellent beds, stunning interior design (obviously the architecture is incredible). The gardens are so lush and green, it's a real treat to walk around them. The tours are definitely worth it - you learn a lot. We stayed in the "Guest Suite" room in the de Silva house, and I hope to stay again it was perfect. I've included pictures of breakfast, but not lunch, which was Sri Lankan curry (but they have other options).

The location right next to the big and almost empty beach was magnificent. The experience at the spa was great, Prima gave me one of the best massages I’ve ever had and you can tell she has a medical background. If you stay at this hotel, you should definitely get a massage. Chef Heshan and his team made the best meals. Absolutely amazing food! Love this place and I would love to come back.

Breakfast was average. Fantastic beachfront location. No TV in rooms. No luggage stand to place your suitcase, we had to put our suitcase on the floor and bend down to reach (not easy for elderly person). The steep stairwell had no handrail making this difficult to climb if you have mobility issues. The shower drain was partially blocked and caused water build-up.

We had a lovely stay - check in took awhile due to high occupancy and we were upgraded to a larger room which was clean, spacious and well appointed - on the ground floor opening up to the gardens facing the beach - my 2 yr old loved it, spending time on the couch, playing in the bathtub and the highlight was a little kitten that visited our room in the morning - as well as staff at the bar who treated her to ice cream.
