Reviews and Ratings

Feedback about Pullman Bentota Resort And Spa from previous guests about their experience.
Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
NH Bentota Ceysands Resort is often praised for its modern and luxurious feel, with deluxe ocean view rooms offering amazing sunsets from two balconies. The massive pool area is a highlight, contributing to a peaceful experience, and the location is ideal, situated between the river and the sea, a short shuttle boat ride from Aluthgama train station and within walking distance of attractions like the Secret Island temple and Bentota Bridge. Some guests have mentioned occasional delays with drink orders and during check-in; however, the delicious food and the amazing, tranquil beach usually compensate for these minor issues, making for an enjoyable stay.
