Before entring we need to settle the payments
Very good. Good spread.
I couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay during my trip. The space was stylish, comfortable, and spotlessly clean. The host’s recommendations for local spots were spot-on and made my trip even more special. I’ll be back for sure!
C'etait bien petit déjeuner
The hotel is beautiful, and the atmosphere is truly wonderful. Its location is excellent, close to the beach, where you can enjoy a variety of water sports.
We had a nice relaxing stay. Clean and comfortable rooms. Food was delicious. All the facilities were great and value for money.
Perfect choice
All good
Super perfect 😃. With full facilities. Pool and beach. Big room with balcony. Upgraded to premium. Very kind staff. Thanks to the manger and Kavidu.
All good.
Occidental Eden Beruwala truly stands out for its wonderful hospitality.The staff were welcoming,Professional and attentive from the very beginning. Check-in was smooth and the front office team explained everything clearly. The restaurant staff were friendly and ensured every meal was enjoyable. Housekeeping provided excellent service,keeping the room clean and comfortable. What impressed us most was the staff's genuine care and friendliness, they also decorated the room and sent a cake for my boyfriends birthday . Their positive attitude created a warm and relaxed atmosphere throughout the hotel. We felt well looked after during our stay and would definitely consider returning in the future.
It was clean, quiet, well-maintained and beautiful. The pool was also clean and very big. The loungers areas was super nice and relaxing. All the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. There are also some nice riverside and beachside restaurants around if you want more variety. The breakfast and dinner was absolutely amazing and very opulent!
A very comfortable hotel with exceptionally friendly staff who go above and beyond to make guests happy.m and satisfied. The room was well equipped, the food was delicious, the prices in the pool bar were cheap and the atmosphere warm and welcoming. There were daily activities free of charge and the highlight was an evening beach party which we enjoyed. Excellent value for money—we would happily return.

Great location,friendly, wellcoming staff,Miss Lithara, and the team ensure we had a great and wonderful stay.. Not to forget, room upgrades made our stay more special.
N/A
Massage
Electric shaded didn’t work and were broken. Penthouse was very plain and outdated and toilet had a bad sewer smell. Both my girlfriend and I got tons of bug bites every time we were inside our room especially at night while sleeping. We would wake up with tons of bug bites, not mosquitoes.
We had a great stay at Eden Beruwala, it was especially nice to return after many years, as I had visited several times in the 90s and 2000s. The hotel has been thoughtfully refurbished while still retaining some of its classic architectural charm. The room was nicely renovated with modern fittings and felt very comfortable, and the buffet was excellent with plenty of variety. The staff were attentive and professional throughout. While Beruwala itself isn’t as lively as it once was, the hotel still offers a relaxing and enjoyable beach holiday experience overall.
They took great care of us on an individual basis, making the experience feel personal and thoughtful. I must especially mention Ms. Themali at the front desk and her team, who went the extra mile to create a truly memorable moment for my mother. Their extra effort and genuine kindness made all the difference. Wishing you all the very best and continued success.
Can’t think of any
Friendly and pleasant staff, clean large rooms. Food was good. Beautiful location and pool. Reception staff were excellent and very professional.
Air conditioning in the hotel was not great, it was somewhat warm, room air conditioning was also not cooling at all though maintenance was informed. The F&B staff though nice were not properly trained.
Hervorragendes Frühstück! Schöner Garten mit bequemen Liegen. Sensationeller Strand Personal teilweise sehr freundlich
Zimmer schon etwas in die Jahre gekommen Matratze und Kissen sehr hart. Bettdeckenbezug mit Flecken Am Ankunftstag war beim einchecken viel Betrieb und wir haben sage und schreibe 1,5 h auf unsere Zimmerkarte gewartet (Personal war nach dem nachfragen etwas genervt)
Mooi hotel met groot zwembad en zeer professioneel personeel
The staff were professional and friendly. The food was very good.
The air conditioning in the 3rd floor common area was off. The hotel has a vintage feeling, but does need a fresh paint job.
Adithya. He made our stay very special and helped us on multiple occasions.
There seems to be too less sunbeds and umbrellas.
Direkte Zugang zum Ozean. Frühstück war git
Die Zimmer Ausstattung uralt. Riecht sehr seltsam nach alter Kleidung. Bad und Möbel aus den alten Zeiten. Speisekarte im a la Card Restaurant ziemlich armselig.
Service and overall property
Nothing
Staff were exceptional all lovely and helpful. I don’t think we’ve been anywhere where so many staff were so amenable. À la carte was really good.
We only ate in the buffet at breakfast and although food was good it wasn’t excellent. We like tea/coffee served to table but it was a queue at a machine each morning. Just our preference
The pool, garden and access to the beach are very good. There are some birds and palm squirrels to watch, which was very interesting.
I would prefer less music at the pool to hear just the ocean and wildlife around.
Our experience at Eden Resort was outstanding, largely due to the incredible service from 𝐄𝐚𝐬𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐢 𝐢𝐧 𝐆𝐮𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐑𝐞𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬. From check-in to check-out, she was a star! Eashani and her team went above and beyond, fulfilling all our requests, even small ones like a cake knife or an à la carte menu. Our room was perfectly set and spotless. We were also very grateful for the late check-out arranged by Eashani and her reception team. This visit to Eden Resort was absolutely worth it!
While breakfast quality and variety weren't highlights, it didn't detract from our overall positive experience.
Hotel is very well equiped - you got wellness here, sqash court, gym. It's right in front on beach with it's own entrance. Food for breakfast was very good - you can choose from many many meals, which all are tasty. Restaurant Sippi with own delicious meals is nice place for dinner or lunch (if you don't have half board) - meals are cooked fresh.
All was as we imagine - nothing to complain about.
Very courteous staff. Lathira in reception was very helpful also organised our grand daughters birthday party. Also the team went out of the way to look after our vegetarian needs. Also special mention to Madhusanka on Sippi alacarte Restaurant. He was extremely courteous and efficient to make some vege meals etc.
Room 123 needs some repairs to shower glass which was leaking.
Amazing hotel with a beautiful sea view and located next to a clean and nice beach. The rooms are comfortable and well maintained, and the atmosphere is very relaxing. The staff were friendly and professional, and a special thanks to Lithara, who was incredibly helpful and made our stay even better with her service minded focus and attention. Highly recommended for a wonderful stay.
The pool and the surrounding areas plus the beach is the beauty of the hotel. The working staff makes the hotel 10 star
Requires maintenance in room and decking area near the bar and restaurants
ארוחת בוקר טובה עם נוף לבריכה .המלון היה מקושט מאד יפה לקריסמס .שרות טוב ליד הבריכה וחוף הים . הכין לנו כיסאות ומגבות ליד החוף על הדשא .
Location and the beach was great. Rooms were clean and view was amazing.
It’s quite pricey per night.
The location, beautiful at night with all of the lights, facilities, friendly staff
Ideal location!! The beach is literally on the door step.
Some of the outside decking needs upkeep.
Everything is great here Gym, scosh , beach , pool , mangrove’s
Relaxing environment, amazing beach and pool, clean all around. Good food and good people.

Bra personal och hjälpsamma. Kommer tillbaka
Läslampa felplacerad ovan sängen. Behöver flyttas en halv meter över säng
Great facilities, really friendly staff, and lovely rooms. Set back from the chaos of Bentota and right on the beach which is a welcome relief. Very tasty food and a good mix of options for everyone.
The buffet is quite expensive for Sri Lanka at 25 dollars per person for a buffet. People gather around the point that the hotel extends onto the beach and try to sell you things straight away/ watch while you relax in the hotel grounds which can be off putting.
Location Staff were helpful Near the beach

Loved the property with amazing facilities and beach
Common facilities of pool and breach is amazing.. overall service is very good..
كل شيء للأمانة
شيء بسيط جداً وهو أنه لا يوجد حذاء لدورة المياه ولا توجد فرشاة أسنان ولا توجد كواية ملابس في الغرفة
It has so many great amenities and staff would attend to your services immediately.
L’hôtel est sympa mais très bruyant. On entendait des portes claquer la nuit. La salle de restaurant aussi était très bruyante. Par contre l’accès à la plage est agréable pour se balader. La chambre et la salle de bain sont agréables.
Trop bruyant. Un peu sale sous les lits.
Das Frühstück ist sehr gut. Und das Personal sehr freundlich und Service orientiert. Wir hatten ein neues Deluxe Zimmer in der oberen Etage, was uns sehr gefallen hat.
Als Individual Urlauber hatten wir 2 Nächte auf dem Weg zum Rückflug gebucht. Leider war bei Buchung nicht ersichtlich, dass es sich um ein AIl Inclusive Resort für Pauschaltouristen handelt. Wir waren nicht auf ein ausgebuchtes und überfülltes Hotel eingerichtet. Massenabfertigung und Kampf um Sonnenliegen. Auch die Schlepper für Ausflüge, die am Zaun der Anlage zum Strand „lauern“, rufen und um Aufmerksamkeit buhlen, sind leider sehr lästig.
From start to finish, we had a delightful stay at the property. From the friendly welcome, to honouring the booking.com upgrade by giving us the best room in the house (the penthouse suite #401), giving us a tour of the room before taking it up, to the overall service, it was outstanding. Rooms: We had 1 penthouse suite and 1 single room - both were great but the penthouse was especially amazing! Perfect for 2 couples or group of 4-5 people. 2 well-equipped bathrooms, beautiful views and a deck to die for! Food: We had 2 meals at Sippi which were both great and very reasonably priced, and the breakfast was absolutely delicious. Unlike other resorts, you don't need to step out of here at all for food because of their wide variety and quality. Service: Staff and service was all-round top notch, with a special mention to Roshan, Gayan (front desk)and Madusanka (restaurant) - warm, friendly and helpful. Pool: Not a deep one, but good for wading and chilling + tons of chairs around, and a nice pool bar too Beach: Easy access, and nice soft beach for a short swim
Rooms: The deck of the penthouse needs some work - the wooden flooring was broken in places and we had to be very careful while walking. There were a few corners that had a few drips and drops of water from the heavy rains which needs attention. Reaching the penthouse is a trek from the elevators + a flight of stairs - not ideal for older people or little kids, but great for adults. Beach: It connects with the river so the water is a little murky and contaminated, unlike other sides of bentota - unfortunate and not the hotel's fault, but it was a bummer because we wished to spend more time in the sea. Also, limited area to swim because we were warned of currents Some entertainment options like bands, music etc. would have made it more fun especially at the bar.
Очень хорошо
Amazing variety for breakfast and easy access to the beach. Ideal for a family stay with well organized rooms.
Dining space for the restaurant is small, you might have to wait if it gets busy.
Very nice. We were upgraded to a Director’s suite with no extra charge. Very comfortable stay. The member of staff named Priya was very courteous. She showed us all the facilities in the room. We enjoyed the food. The hotel made us feel very comfortable. We would love to go back again.
There is nothing we don’t like in the hotel.
Large room, good breakfast, buffet for dinner was ok
Mouldy smell in the room, very high prices for food and drink (prices misleading as shown without taxes), 'approved' taxi/tuk tuk guy outside main hotel door asked for 80 dollars to get to airport (pick-me app was 32 dollars....), very dirty beach with no hotel amenities, not much amenities nearby, Symphony restaurant not good and very expensive for Sri Lanka:(. Hotel dated in parts.
The pool was a great place to hangout.
We had a wonderful experience during our stay at Eden Beruwala. The team gave us a warm welcome, and we were pleasantly surprised with a free room upgrade (subject to availability) — the room had a beautiful sunset view. Since we booked through Booking.com, we also received a 20% discount on dinner at the à la carte restaurant, which was a nice bonus. The food was delicious and reasonably priced, and the buffet spread was quite good as well. Also need to mention that the staff was also very nice and supportive.. Overall, I would definitely recommend this place for a relaxing stay
The property is a large resort. Well appointed with a large pool and swim up bar. The staff are friendly and helpful. The buffet breakfast is varied and large.
The property is dated and need an upgrade. Some of the rules and regulations are very outdated. Charging extra for an additional key card, pool bar closes early at around 7pm. Prices are honesty high compared to other parts of Sri Lanka, but that seemed to be the case for all of Bentota: I think there is a cartel like arrangement between the tourist restaurants and hotels to keep prices at a standard high prices. The beach outside the hotel was littered with rubbish and is a public beach, with no hotel amenities.
Everthing! The rooms were spacious, well equipped and comfortable. We got a beautiful sea view room. The staff was the game changer though. Everyone was friendly and accommodating. Excellent customer service
That we didn't have more time to spend there
The staff were nice and room was super big
The spa massages were so expensive
Everything was perfect. Specially liked the food as they are serving only Halal meat.

Property is clean and staffs are superb, except Moring chef . Super stay and very much recommended
Their gustier is super hence there is a morning ceff literally disappointed our entire stay. I went with my 3 year old kid. She is bit reluctant to eat so I requested just 2 croissants to be taken to the room. I don’t mind paying even. But the waitress was helpful and she took it for to deliver, but this chef has stopped and shouting at her that everyone could see. We have stayed many hotels but never come across this kind of attitude from a staff. This is a hospitality industry . But we made the same request on dinner , there was a chef he instantly arranged it and even they done a room service. So I would prefer management to short this nasty behaviours
All good

Lovely views from the rooms of the pool and beach area. Walkable to the beach. Nice beach chair area in front of the beach.
The a la carte menu at the restaurant and bar area was very minimal and quality / freshness of food could be improved. Music in the evening from the bar area until +/- 10 pm was really audible in the rooms.
Everything was perfect! The location was perfect, the pool was always clean, room service was amazing. Great value for such facilities. I requested an iron and it was brought to the room free of charge. We enjoyed staying at the hotel!
Nothing
Had a great time there with plenty of food in their buffet. Rooms are nice and clean. The beach and the pool are also nice. Worth the money.
Everything was exceptionally magnificent, and I wish we had planned for an extra night stay. We all enjoyed it very much—everything was perfect. The staff was great, and the food, pool, facilities, playgrounds, and cleanliness were top-notch. We even stayed after check-out since the pool was accessible. They also provided free room upgrade from superior to premium and everyone was surprisingly happy about it. I would recommend this place to anyone because it’s truly worth it.
There wasn’t actually anything that I didn’t like but there were some points that should be mentioned like, on our room the tv didn’t work even though we didn’t actually needed it. ( it would be good if to check everything was working fine in the rooms before checkin). and, we had to wait a little bit of time for the staff to deliver our bags to our rooms. These are minor points that are near to negligible.. just some recommendations, apart from that everything was great.
