The Fortress Resort & Spa

房間全海景視野，泳池挺好，餐食不錯。

Where do I start? Firstly, a massive apology for taking too long to write my 5 star review. Our secret destination elopement wedding took two years to plan, but it only took a few moments to realise that, after touring Sri Lanka for a week, we wanted to not only relax at the Fortress for 5 days, but also to get married here as well. The good reviews are all you need to read. From the moment we arrived everyone knew who we were and we were treated like the king & queen of the hotel for the duration of our stay. The huge wooden doors greet you and the moment you step through them you just know you’re in a real land of luxury and that your stay here is going to be truly memorable. Our Wedding Planner Gayani was there to meet us and give us a grand tour of the hotel. Our room was ready on arrival – a complimentary upgrade to a ground floor plunge pool room (WOW!) which opened up directly on to the amazing garden area with the pool & beach just several meters away. Once we were settled we met up with Gayani once again to plan our wedding day which turned out to be extremely straightforward – mainly because, once we’d chosen flowers, locations, timings, etc. Gayani simply wouldn’t let us lift a finger and she arranged absolutely everything! After a busy week touring Sri Lanka it was finally time to relax. The pool area is stunning, the gardens are exceptionally well maintained, the beach is glorious (right hand side you can walk for miles, left hand side is a safe swimming area), the whole hotel is spotlessly clean, the bar is relaxing, the comfy sunbeds moved to where ever you’d like them, the service is quick, professional and super-friendly… I could go on and on! Every single member of staff had a smile on their face. We were all inclusive and to our surprise some evenings in White were buffet and some a la carte, there was also a seafood BBQ buffet. We didn’t see the point of eating at the Salty Snapper but we did eat at Duo on our wedding night which was one of the best meals we’ve ever had. Some reviews said it was a little pricey but as it was our wedding night we decided to treat ourselves. The restaurant staff were all amazing and the food the best we had in all of our trip, so much variety and everything so tasty. We ate so much at breakfast we didn’t need lunch and in the evenings we still struggled to fit in more food. We had planned to go outside of the hotel and explore but we were so comfy, happy and relaxed after our week touring that we decided to just enjoy the hotel, the weather, the turtles swimming just off shore, the lizards and crabs running about, and the bats flying around at night. Oh and there was a massive grass snake on day 1, plus some noisy crows. We did have to venture to the local Registry Office to apply for our wedding licence. Again, Gayani arranged all of this for us. Her driver picked us up and Gayani met us there… on her day off. This was quite an exciting & interesting part of the experience of gett

This is an exceptional hotel. Well designed , perfectly located . The staff are amazingly attentive . Having travelled the world and stayed in the best hotels this hotel sits amongst the best internationally Food is creative and throughout is super clean, with fantastic rooms

We had the Most wonderful stay at this Beautiful located hotel. An oasis of tranquility with direct access to the beach. The food was outstanding! We enjoyed Gourmet style food , beginning from the breakfast to dinner… Everything was the best quality. A big thank you to the Restaurant and reception staff , they have been taken very good care of us. A truly 5 Star Service. But one of the Highlights for us was the yoga class with priyantha! A mind blowing experience for us to have the chance to do yoga with such an experienced yoga instructor. We would have Never expected this level of yoga teaching in a hotel. We are very much involved in yoga overseas and we will certainly recommend this teacher to all Our Friends looking for a great yoga experience in sri lanka! Thank you all for a wonderful stay!

Definitely one of my favourite hotels! We were greeted by pleasant staff and appreciated the restaurant's flexibility. We would like to express our gratitude to the restaurant. We had two enjoyable evenings, which enhanced the overall experience.
