We had lunch and dinner everyday in the restaurant by the river. Loved the property, service was warm and friendly and seafood was superb. Great find! ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 17 Apr 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Paridise lost Our 3-day stay here was an incredible experience. Beautifully constructed bungalows giving peace and serenity. We would wake at 7 and take advantage of the 1hr free yoga (neither of us had much prior experience but the sessions were easy to follow and have enabled us to continue ourselves since we left). We would then have the wonderful breakfast followed by a couple of hours of massage before lounging by the pool. The food (and in particular the seafood) was the best we ate in Sri Lanka (and we stayed in 6 different hotels and tried numerous restaurants). So why not 5 stars? The reason is that the manager ripped us off with our transfer taxi, it was our first hotel so we did not know the correct rates and ended up paying £12 for a 10 minute journey. From our extensive travel after our stay it's clear that it should have been £2 at most. It's worrying especially as we left the manager a large tip for all the staff (£30) and I doubt that he bothered to share it around. ##### Verified traveller ### 10/10 Excellent #### Christine 11 Mar 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### beautifull place It was a beautifull stay, relaxing, beautifull surrounding, with competent ayurvedic treathment. The best was the cooking from Athula, really an experience, We didn't go else after our first meal cooked by him. ##### Christine ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 27 Mar 2016 #### ветхое место Отель когда задумывался выглядел наверное весьма не плохо но теперь медленно приходит в упадок. Бунгало не первой свежести, сантехника подтекает, белье все серое, халаты похожие на спецодежду работников склада. Территория отеля зеленая и достаточно ухоженная в центре по окраинам буреломы. Номера убирают ежедневно. Раньше давали 2 бутылки воды ежедневно теперь только по приезду. Подсветку по вечерам иногда включают, иногда нет. Ресторан на берегу реки неплохой персонал нормальный улыбчивый, цены чуть выше чем в Бентотте. Есть маленький бассейн и 2 джакузи. Если отель заполнен больше чем на половину то есть трудности с местами у бассейна и в бассейне. Возят на море на лодке. Но делают это очень неудобно в 12 туда в 16 обратно. Если в 12 ни кто не поехал на пляж в 16 вас тоже не повезут. Пляжи не оборудованные, лежаков и зонтиков нет. Будьте внимательны у ближайшего отеля недалеко от места высадки с лодочки, туристов караулит русскоговорящий гид Руан предлагает экскурсии для русскоговорящих обещает что поедет с вами лично и все расскажет и покажет. На практике покупая дорогую экскурсию с русским гидом вы перед экскурсией неожиданно узнаете что у него кто то заболел и он поехать не сможет. Или еще хуже что маршрут который вы попросите невозможно проехать за один день. Просто потеряете драгоценное время и деньги. Все доп. услуги отеля очень дорогие. Есть СПА но все тоже очень сильно б/у. ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### Anna, Stockholm 2 Mar 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Superstart på semestern Vi startade vår resa i Sri Lanka på detta underbart avkopplande ställe.

Accommodations are in spacious bungalows with front porches and private front yards. You are greeted with a large, at least queen-size, bed covered with big tropical blossoms and partially draped with mosquito netting, which isn't necessary (in terms of mosquitos), but looks lovely. Restaurant is excellent, featuring locally-caught fresh fish, and is led by an accomplished and friendly chef - he invited me to witness his preparation of some vegetable curries using local ingredients. It was wonderful and educational. The property is located on the Bentota River, which empties into the sea downstream. The restaurant is riverside, so the ambience is awesome. The staff is welcoming and professional. I will return if ever in the area again! ##### American in Singapore ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller 9 Mar 2012 Liked: Property conditions & facilities Disliked: Staff & service #### service We just got back this morning from Sri Lanka where we stayed in 5 differents hotels. Dalmanuta garden was one of the most beautiful one but the service was terrible.The cleaners was friendly and helpful but the rest of the staff espacially in the restaurant was useless. Minimum 2 hours to get served. There were a maximum of 14 guest in the hotel when we were there( 5 nights).I remember 2 evenings when the 3 of us where the last ones in the restaurant, we wait 54 mn exactelly to have or main course. Food was good but nothing exeptional. We met a couple of Italian who own a restaurant in Ischia they stayed in the hotel for 2 weeks and they told us that they ate in the restaurant the 4 first night but because of being fed up of waiting they decided to eat out for the rest of their vacation.We and they, never saw the pool bar opened.Nobody was coming to see us by the pool (200m from the restaurant) to see if the guest wanted drinks or anything. Beach towel were missing sometimes.The chief was smily but not honest ( you can feel it even if you don't speak Sri lankan) We complained several times but nothing changed. It is a real shame because it is a wonderful place. Garden, pool and river side are beautiful.But a little bit to far from everything. We talked to many guest and we were all agree about one thing: service is not good enough compare what you paid for. ##### Verified traveller ### 2/10 Terrible #### Verified traveller 11 Jan 2012 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Wonderful staff and owner! This hotel located rather far from the Bentota beach and town but you can refresh in a silent, neat and beautiful hotel. Moreover, all hotel staff are very friendly, kind and they serve warm hospitality. You should check this hotel when you consider staying in Bentota area. ##### Verified traveller ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hilton Colombo](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Colombo-Hotels-Hilton-Colombo.h181855.Hotel-Information) > > [Royal Palms Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Wadduwa-Hotels-Royal-Palms-Beach-Hotel.h6290832.Hotel-Information) > > [Ayur Ayur Ayurveda Retreat](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Negombo-Hotels-Ayur-Ayur-Ayurveda-Retreat.h37946415.Hotel-Information) > > [Marino Beach Colombo](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Colombo-Hotels-Marino-Beach-Colombo.h29961010.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Riu Sri Lanka - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ahungalla-Hotels-Hotel-Riu-Sri-Lanka-All-Inclusive.h14754284.Hotel-Information) > > [Vivanta Colombo, Airport Garden](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Seeduwa-Katunayake-Hotels-Vivanta-Colombo.h526350.Hotel-Information) > > [Cinnamon Bey Beruwala](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Beruwala-Hotels-Cinnamon-Bey-Beruwala.h8256226.Hotel-Information) > > [Cinnamon Red Colombo](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Colombo-Hotels-Cinnamon-Red-Colombo.h8796833.Hotel-Information) > > [Cinnamon Grand Colombo](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Colombo-Hotels-Cinnamon-Grand-Colombo.h916269.Hotel-Information) > > [Sentido Heritance Negombo](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Negombo-Hotels-Heritance-Negombo.h10484262.Hotel-Information) > > [Cinnamon Bentota Beach – Signature Selection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bentota-Hotels-Cinnamon-Bentota-Beach.h36466861.Hotel-Information) > > [Mandarina Colombo](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Colombo-Hotels-Mandarina-Colombo.h17399512.Hotel-Information) > > [Colombo Court Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Colombo-Hotels-Colombo-Court-Hotel-Spa.h5535110.Hotel-Information) > > [The Blue Water - Geoffrey Bawa Heritage Resort Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Wadduwa-Hotels-The-Blue-Water.h1610945.Hotel-Information) > > [Courtyard By Marriott Colombo](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Colombo-Hotels-Courtyard-By-Marriott-Colombo.h91017278.Hotel-Information) > > [Galadari Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Colombo-Hotels-Galadari-Hotel.h1680445.Hotel-Information) > > [Turyaa Kalutara](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Wadduwa-Hotels-Turyaa-Kalutara.h1514759.Hotel-Information) > > [The Kingsbury Colombo](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Colombo-Hotels-The-Kingsbury-Colombo.h19910.Hotel-Information) > > [98 Acres Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ella-Hotels-98-Acres-Resort-Spa.h15504051.Hotel-Information) > > [Cinnamon Lakeside Colombo](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Colombo-Hotels-Cinnamon-Lakeside-Colombo.h2281.Hotel-Information) > > [Galle Face Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Colombo-Hotels-Galle-Face-Hotel.h11080678.Hotel-Information) > > [Granbell Hotel Colombo](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Colombo-Hotels-Granbell-Hotel-Colombo.h76370717.Hotel-Information) > > [Jetwing Colombo Seven](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Colombo-Hotels-Jetwing-Colombo-Seven.h15812609.Hotel-Information) > > [Avani Kalutara Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kalutara-Hotels-Avani-Kalutara-Resort.h4031708.Hotel-Information) > > [Ceylon Tea Trails - Relais and Chateaux - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Norwood-Hotels-Ceylon-Tea-Trails.h4045356.Hotel-Information) > > [Goldi Sands Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Negombo-Hotels-Goldi-Sands-Hotel.h7763668.Hotel-Information) > > [Mount Lavinia Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mount-Lavinia-Hotels-Mount-Lavinia-Hotel.h878703.Hotel-Information) > > [Shangri-La Colombo](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Colombo-Hotels-Shangri-La-Colombo.h19414242.Hotel-Information) > > [Cinnamon Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Habarana-Hotels-Cinnamon-Lodge.h1854476.Hotel-Information) > > [Camelot Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Negombo-Hotels-Camelot-Beach-Hotel.h15393048.Hotel-Information)
