Taj hotels are fabulous places to stay. One of their charms is that they carry a certain old-world elegance. This is sometimes a little faded in places, which is the case here. Having said that, it's only round the edges of the fabric of the building & grounds. If you appreciate top quality service from staff who have a warm smile, look no further.
We had a recently refurbished room with a sea view, which was just lovely. A little extra storage space for a 9 day stay would have been perfect. The new bathrooms, however, are divine with a gorgeous rainfall shower.
The room was kept spotless by the staff whose astonishing efficiency is something to behold.
The pool area is very pleasant, the breakfast buffet is sumptuous, the bar is charming in the late afternoon.

Had a great stay at this hotel. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and well-equipped, though some areas of the hotel are a little worn and could use an update. However that shouldn’t detract from an enjoyable stay. The sea view from our room was stunning. Service was excellent, with a special mention to Sampath from Concierge who very kindly helped us pack/box some of our oversized fragile souvenirs. Overall, I would highly recommend this hotel.

Excellent location with a lovely serene view of the beach. Rooms are spacious, clean and well maintained. Staff is highly Professional and polite. The breakfast and lunch buffet is excellent. The Shack is one of the best seafood restaurants that I have tried. Would like to specially mention Roshan who served us the dinner with warmth and made us extremely comfortable. One of the best Taj resorts that I have stayed in. Highly recommended for someone looking to have a good time with family.

Rooms are bit worn out, needs some renovation. But the hotel is ideal for a vacation for few days to experience Sri Lankan beach life. Food is amazing and the hospitality is also nice nothing to complain about. The hotel premises is massive and has many places to wander and has many activities to do and that’s impressive. They have both indoor and outdoor games. If u want to get a great stay, my recommendation is to take a vacation there for at least for five days to take the maximum experience out of it.
