    spacious room
    friendly staff
    amazing view
    worn amenities
    train noise

    The room was spacious and clean with nice touches like towel animals, but it was near a train line, so expect some early wake-ups. The bathroom looked a bit worn out with broken drawers and no hot water even after multiple requests. The view from the balcony was amazing though, right by the beach. Staff kept it tidy and were super friendly, but the overall condition of some amenities felt dated.

    pristine beach
    varied buffet
    unreliable internet
    limited amenities
    half board regret

    The beach is pristine, offering a secluded feel despite being a public area. The poolside experience was relaxing, with plenty of sunbeds available. The buffet was varied, with excellent breakfast options and a wide selection for lunch and dinner. However, internet connectivity was unreliable, and some amenities felt a bit limited for those who needed them. Dining at the local NOVA fish restaurant came highly recommended—too bad I opted for half board instead.

    ocean view
    beautifully designed spaces
    lush gardens
    accessible amenities
    limited elevator access

    The Taj Bentota Resort & Spa features beautifully designed spaces that are easy to navigate for us seniors. The stunning ocean views from my room’s balcony were breathtaking, and the lush gardens added to its charm.

    More accessible amenities for seniors would be beneficial.

    Stunning views and exceptional service

    The beachfront view from our Superior Sea View King Bed Room was absolutely breathtaking, creating a perfect backdrop for our stay. The staff were genuinely caring and attentive, with personalized touches that made us feel pampered. The breakfast buffet was impressive with a range of delicious options. However, the dining experience outside of breakfast could use improvement, as the food variety was limited.

The spa was amazing, offering a full body massage and sauna. Breakfast had a variety of organic juices and fresh pastries. The staff was incredibly attentive and friendly, making our stay enjoyable.
