The Palace by Ocean

我不理解這個酒店為什麼有這麼多好評。非常非常非常糟糕的體驗。首先來到酒店，價格已經因為匯率和app上不同，進了房間，又發現枕頭上和浴巾都是污漬。洗澡水非常小，且不夠熱，根本無法洗頭的程度。作為這個價位的酒店（195usd），整個床單居然無法固定。 唯一覺得優秀的是spa，但是要charge 50usd，在Sri Lanka來說是貴得離譜。

We booked this hotel for a few nights before leaving the UK. We planned to travel south after our stay. As soon as we arrived we knew we wanted to stay for our whole holiday (11 nights). The hotel is beautiful. Attention to detail 1st class. Spotlessly clean. Amazing fixtures and fittings. All the staff are very friendly and can’t do enough for you. Every member of staff helped us to experience the real Sri Lanka. Manesh (owner) was there at 6am to let me out to go fishing with Tiny most mornings. I fished with the locals off the rocks a few minutes from hotel. Sunrise was a true experience. The food in the restaurant is outstanding. They have a very talented young chef. We ate here most nights. Hoppers for breakfast or a selection of homemade curry certainly gets you off to a good start. Whole king coconut served chilled every morning. Wow. We stayed in the Princess room and were lucky enough to watch a troop of monkeys playing in the yard most evenings. They have the best Tuktuk driver. Ronaldo will take you anywhere, wait while you have dinner or a swim. He took us to Yala for the day and set us up with an amazing guide to tour the safari park. Thoroughly recommend this gentleman. He really made our holiday. Take him shopping with you to make sure you pay the correct price. Thank you Kushan. We will see you in March 2025 when we will return for another two weeks.

We recently stayed at this lovely hotel, and while it's a bit farther from the beach and town, we still had a great experience. The beach is about a 10-minute walk away, and getting to Bentota town is easy with a 20-minute tuk-tuk ride. The highlight of this place is that it feels like staying in a beautiful, modern mansion. Everything is super new, and the facilities are in excellent condition. The staff is also incredibly welcoming and attentive, which made our stay even better. If you're looking for a peaceful and well-maintained place to relax, this is a great option!
