Taj Bentota Resort & Spa

Very friendly and always ready to help staff. Very tasty breakfasts. Good cleaning in the room. Good air conditioning, comfortable bed, there was enough space in the room to put the child on the mattress. Good beaches, you can walk along the shore. To the right of the exit to the sea there is an excellent beach for children, the bottom relief cuts the waves very strongly, and there is shallow (up to the middle of the shin of an adult), children can swim comfortably even in strong waves.

Staff were excellent, especially Sam and Terrance! But every member of staff was very attuned to your needs and never came off as overbearing which is a very skilful balance to pull off! We liked that you could shut the blinds for full privacy in the ensuite, some hotels don't allow complete privacy so it was appreciated that we had the option.

It's an excellent hotel for families. The pool itself is good and big. The pool area is at an elevation from where stunning sunsets can be seen. The service of all staff members was excellent and consistent which you would expect from a Taj. Special thanks to Janitha from F&B services, who made sure that we were well taken care of, especially on those weekends when there was maximum capacity at the breakfast and restaurant area. All the staff seemed well trained and aware, even the trainees who displayed excellent service. Of course, the renowned SriLankan hospitality also plays a big part in making your overall stay in the country enjoyable. Its location is stunning and frankly exceeded my expectations. Bang on the beautiful Bentota beach, where you can go surfing which we enjoyed a lot. It's a big property with lots of space to walk around and is designed to give you the best that Bentota Beach can offer. We will visit this beautiful hotel again.

What separates a 5 star from others is the service. Taj Bentota staff especially the kitchen staff are outstanding. A big shout to Chef Piyush and his team(special mention of Chef Dalip) who are excellent. Apart from this location, amenities and care they take is outstanding. We will definitely return
