This refined, spotlessly clean small hotel offers a calm and intelligent base from which to enjoy the golden beaches of Bentota and beyond. A chief attraction is the candlelit dinners beneath the stars, with lanterns adding to the romantic atmosphere - after all, why eat indoors when the warmth and sounds of a tropical evening are to be enjoyed? Dinner is tailored to your order earlier in the day. The extensive coconut grove is large enough for a short evening stroll. The beach lies beyond the garden, across the simple West coast railway line, which few find disconcerting.
