Riads in Bentota

Saman Villa is very well situated as you have long stretches of beach towards the north and south of the hotel for you to walk on The suite that we were in had spectacular view of the northern beach. We could see the lighthouse and Bentota town in the distance. There was a beautiful terrace where we had breakfast on the first morning. Service was impeccable as staff was friendly and helpful. They look after all of our needs. The bed was very comfortable and we simply loved the open shower and...

Friendly and helpfyl stuff

Big rm, simple furnishing. 2 or 3 stars standard but u pay for this standard anyway. Highlight was the boat safari wh Lucky personally took us n his determination to show us crocodiles + birds+ bats etc.. He tried his best. We had 4 croc sightings. Adv of staying in Guest hses is the personal attention n relationship with the owner n his family. Add colors to our travel

Staff service and food quality were excellent. Dylan, Salomon, Kashulya and the head chef were excellent in terms of dealing with guests and made us feel at home. Definitely value for money.

A bit too crowded during the week-end due to company event. Good for family. Good animations but noisy when you room is nearby. after animations people make a lot of noise when they go back to their rooms (around 10:15pm). Can be an issue if you or your kids need to sleep earlier. The food at buffet is good. I just regret there was no good cheese unlike other hotels of this category. The beach is nice and clean but impossible to swim.
