My husband and I recently stayed at Taj Bentota Resort & Spa in Sri Lanka, and it was a truly wonderful experience. From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by the excellent hospitality and the attentive care provided by all the staff. Being pregnant, I received extra attention, and everyone went out of their way to ensure my comfort, which I deeply appreciated. A special mention to Chef Jasver Singh , who personally came to me and offered to prepare anything I liked, despite the wide variety already available in the buffet. He even prepared special dishes just for me—a truly thoughtful gesture. The food overall was delicious, with an impressive variety and live cooking stations that made each meal enjoyable. The staff’s warm behavior and attention to detail made our stay very memorable. I would highly recommend this resort to anyone looking for a relaxing and luxurious getaway. We had such a fantastic experience that we will definitely be returning!

Taj Bentota: Where luxury meets the Indian Ocean sunset! I recently stayed at Taj Bentota and it was an absolute delight. Food: Wow! The Indian flavors were authentically crafted, making every meal a treat for the taste buds. Location: Simply awesome. The resort is right on the beach of the Indian Ocean, giving you that serene seaside vibe. Sunset Views: The sunsets from their pool deck are breathtaking—check out the photo below for proof! Amenities & Property: The pool is lovely, and the lush green property adds to the tranquil, resort-like feel. Overall, a perfect blend of comfort, scenic beauty, and authentic flavors—definitely worth a visit!

We spent two wonderful weeks at this hotel and cannot speak highly enough about our experience, especially about the service. From the very first day until the last, we felt warmly welcomed and incredibly well taken care of. The level of service was outstanding – every staff member went out of their way to ensure that we had the perfect holiday. A very special thank you goes to Janaka from the gym, whose friendliness and professionalism made every workout a pleasure. Our room boy Chandimal was simply amazing – always attentive, polite, and making sure our room was spotless and comfortable. At the pool, Kannangara and Disanayaka were absolutely fantastic – always ready with a smile, helpful, and making sure we had everything we needed to relax and enjoy our time. And also the entire breakfast and dinner team did an absolutely great job! It is this kind of genuine warmth and care that makes a stay truly unforgettable. We left with beautiful memories and the feeling of having been part of a big family! We are looking forward to coming back!

Great location, with views over the beach and direct access to the beach. Excellent food quality and options at all meals, in particular the chinese restaurant was our favourite. Breakfast and dinner service made extra special by Gihani and Ravindra making us very welcome and ensuring the kids were always happy with the food. A hotel dress code would be appreciated to avoid guests wearing pyjamas to the dining hall as this really not what you expect at a 5 star hotel. Clearer signage and queuing ettiqute at the breakfast buffet would also keep the service running smoother for all guests. The hotel was under renovation during our stay, some parts were not accessible, hopefully these renovations bring the rooms and other areas of the hotel up-to date. Our room was very large for a family room although in need of updating, especially the bathroom. All requests and reservation queries dealth with very well by the front desk by Nilusha anf by our room porter Chamith. Pool and gym aread very nice and clean, good pool activities by the resident gym instructor. Overall a grrat stay and location, can only imagine it will be better when the reservations are complete.

Taj Bentota was one of the best hotels we stayed. Right from the moment we entered the hotel, the staff were warm and friendly. The service was outstanding in all areas. The hotel rooms are upgraded and are very nice. The food options for breakfast and the quality of food were excellent. If you are into Indian food, there are tons of options for breakfast and later as well, with great quality. Staff were caring and helpful. The pool is great with a stunning view of the beach. The only downside is that there is no private beach, as it is not allowed by law, it seems, in that area. Beach access is good, though, as you can walk into the beach area from the property. They even gave toys for kids to play in the sand. All in all, a very good hotel for anyone planning to visit Bentota. Best value for your money! Some sections of the hotel are being upgraded, and some of them may feel old as it is an old hotel, but I guess it is due to the age of the property, not much in Kids activities room.
