It’s tranquility, it’s luxury, it’s staff, don’t have enough words for how much we loved this place but it was heaven. The view from our room was stunning, coconut forest with abundance of wildlife and eagles soaring above. The room itself was excellent. The food in the restaurant was class and I can’t thank the staff enough they all made our stay memorable.

Nothing…also may I add don’t be put off that it’s not on the ocean side because it’s little inlet from the ocean curves around the hotel so the views from the rooms and the stunning pool area are probably better than looking out to sea.

Free upgrade to Junior Suite with private Jacuzzi. Nice, spacious and clean room with good room facilities. Jacuzzi is very inviting to relax. Leafy surroundings and lake view. Very friendly staff. Al carte breakfast menu had varieties for a Western & SriLankan menu. Good location with eating places nearby.

No direct access to beach. Need more variety for buffet breakfast. Al carte menu items are reasonably priced however the final price is much more with taxes added. At times automated power panels in the room is very confusing.

Great setting with beautiful rooms in a beautiful tropical garden. The staff goes to incredible lengths to make you feel at home. We got an upgrade for a small additional charge, the room with jacuzzi is very spacious and comfortable. With a beautiful view of the beautiful pool, the tropical garden and the river. The beautiful pool bar and the fantastic restaurant make the stay complete. After a biting incident with a monkey, we received maximum support from the staff who always advised us. They even went with us to the hospital and pharmacy, everyone showed a lot of interest and offered care and help. To ease the pain, we were pampered and spoiled extra. Unbelievable and never experienced before. We already thought it was a great place with very nice and service-oriented staff, but because of the way they supported us, they deserve a big 10+. Thanks again to the management and the entire team.

Beautiful resort! Amaranthe was the perfect piece of luxury we needed during our trip in Sri Lanka. The highlights were the buffet breakfast and beautiful pool. The rooms were well equipped and very comfortable. Really close to the beach strip and lovely places to eat! Can definitely recommend.

Nothing specific, this is a lovely place to stay if looking for some luxury. Only a couple of minor things that may be improved; A bit more music variety at the outdoor bar or opportunity to take requests for music might be good and one of the rooms we stayed in had a bit of an “off” smell in it. But apart from those things it was fantastic!

The hotel sits on the banks of a river which is lovely for nature lovers. The pool is where we spent a lot of time. It’s clean and you can eat your meals and have drinks in your sun chairs. The food is delicious. Breakfast buffet each morning with lots of options and lunch and dinner a la carte style with quality food. The staff are particularly good. Thanks to Priwim, Mayuran, Sanujan, Karthik and Chataranga. They were kind and helpful. Karthik was very helpful and even gifted us a cake in celebration of our honeymoon. He was very sweet. Location is good for walking to the beach which has great restaurants and good swimming. You can also hire bicycles and tuk tuks. We stayed for 4 nights and really enjoyed our stay.

Nice, Spacious and comfortable room. Good restaurant for dining. The staff was very helpful and provided with all necessary details for nearby tourist activities, helped with first aid kit when I got injured,etc. The hotel also has tie-ups with local tour guides and provide tour options at considerable rates and their tour guides are top quality and speak good English. Had a lot of fun thanks to Amaranthe.

There is no direct beach access but there is a good beach just 5 minutes away. A direct beach access would have been like the utlimate cherry on top.

Beautiful resort - best bit was its location. It was next to a lagoon and in the evening oxen wandered down to the water to cross to a nearby island. Lots of very interesting wildlife to see as you sat for an evening drink. A short walk away there was a great beach, which had a couple of beach bars but was relatively deserted

We went in February when the resort and the area generally had hardly any tourists - some nights we were the only people dining in the hotel

Rooms are very spacious and very clean. The staffs are extremely friendly, specially the chef in the restaurant who is very welcoming with an extraordinary attitude. I love the reception area and welcome process. Rooms with direct access to the pool are great. The bar with the typical Sri lankan hut style amazing. My son had a very pleasant stay.

Only issue I faced is about the hotel key which was not working properly despite multiple time changing it. The driver cottage was charged 2500 LKR. Most of the other hotels don’t charge accommodations for driver. Also this is not a beach front hotel. Would have been amazing if it was beach front.

Loved everything about this resort. The rooms are spacious and very clean. Comfortable beds with you everything you need on holiday supplied. Staff extremely attentive, warm and friendly. No one wandering around on phones here. Food for all meals delicious with good variety. Pool and jacuzzi beautiful and clean. Lovely surrounds. Can't praise highly enough.

Minor issues only: Glass Window over door in bedroom letting in light at night, didn't restock tea and coffee for 2nd night.

The staff were amazing. Everyone went out of their way to make sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. The room was very spacious with great views and the facility provided high quality internet.

The quality of the bed linens were sub standard and there were several areas in the room that needed maintenance. The food was probably the biggest issue. I'd you are a big fan of curry and rice, you will be very happy. However, the western diet offerings were coming up short of satisfactory.
