Guest Reviews
- Claudie (10/5): Un séjour parfait - Accueil parfait avec un jus de fruits
Nous avons été surclassé
Le personnel aux petits soins et toujours avec le sourire
Une personne à notre disposition pour traverser en bateau à moteur la rivière Bentota pour aller à la plage et pour le retour juste envoyer un petit message et on revient nous chercher Ras
- julie (10/5): Très bien ! - C’est beau !! Splendide. Coucher de soleil depuis le balcon ou la salle de restauration incroyable, grande gentillesse du personnel et possibilité de faire des activités nautiques depuis l’hôtel.
- Wendy (10/5): Great spot with plenty going on. - A great hotel with a lovely welcome and fabulous staff. We had a high floor with great views over the river. Lots of water sports to watch when using the comfy sun beds on the balcony. The boat to the beach was good but you can walk if you wish to. The breakfast was varied and very good. We ate here for 5 nights and there was plenty choice. The staff went over and above to make us feel welcome. We had our choice of various table and they were all set to make us comfortable. On our last evening they dressed a beautiful table on the wooden pier, with paper flowers and romantic lights. We felt extremely special. After catching some great fish on their deep sea fishing trip, they cooked it and provided lovely vegetables and salad to accompany it. Attention to detail was well thought out. Thanks for the lovely elephant in our room (made from towels). Nothing it was all excellent. Maybe they could offers different breads at breakfast time but this is just a suggestion not a need.
- Jeyasekaran (10/5): - Amazing place excellent service
- Ewelina (9/5): Pokoj wiekszy i bardziej komfortowy niz w luksusowych hotelach - Great, big room, amazing view from the balcone
- Nicole (9/5): Enjoyable stay with amazing views and friendly staff - Friendly staff, spacious rooms, stunning river views, very accommodating. It’s helpful having the boat over to the beach side. One of the room’s AC wasn’t working but the hotel helped with this by moving us to another room for a night. The bathroom plumbing was a little bit smelly.
- Véronique (10/5): - Tout était parfait, une belle chambre, spacieuse avec une belle terrasse et une belle salle de bain, le personnel est extrêmement gentil, arrangeant et attentionné. Rien
- Эльнура (10/5): - Очень приветливый персонал , еда просто отменная ☺️
- Ivica (5/5): Passable stay in Bentota but lower quality than other guest houses - Very specious rooms and confortable bed Very basic breakfast compared to other guest houses in Sri Lanka. Sri Lankan omlet provided was the same as cheese omlet, very uncomparable to other facilities.
Linen on bed was dirty, need change.
Except 1 person on reception which was good no one else spoke english.
- František (10/5): - Děkujeme za krásný pobyt, všechno bylo skvělé, jak ubytování, strava i personál. Snídaně famózní.
- Anna (10/5): - 10/10! Идеальный отдых у воды с заботливым персоналом и супер рыбалкой!
Остановились в этом отеле на неделю и это было незабываемо! Персонал золото: с самого приезда нас встретили как старых друзей, помогли с багажом и даже организовали сафари на лодке. Ребята всегда на позитиве, готовы помочь с чем угодно. Чувствуется настоящая забота
Рыбалка тут топ! Персонал предоставляет снасти, лодки и даже проводника, поймали 3 больших дорадо и вечером нам их приготовили!
Номера чистые, уютные, с видом на воду. Всё работает: кондиционер, Wi-Fi
Питание - самые вкусные крабы тут, обеды и ужины с местными деликатесами рыба с гриля просто тает во рту
В общем, вернемся обязательно! Рекомендую всем, кто ищет комфорт, природу и кучу эмоций от рыбалки. Спасибо за сказку!
- Marc (9/5): - Uitstekende locatie, met uitzicht over de rivier Bentota waar je allerlei watersport activiteiten kan doen. Je kan ook naar de andere kant van de rivier gebracht worden om naar het strand te gaan, wat erg mooi is! Het personeel is heel vriendelijk en staan altijd klaar voor je om je te helpen. Een echte aanrader!
- Olivier Margerie (9/5): -
- Rebecca (9/5): Lovely vibe, spotlessly clean and great breakfast - Great location right on the river and staff happy to take you to the beach 2 mins boat ride away. There we could use subbed in lovely resort of buying drinks and swim the warm ocean here. Fantastic spot we would happily return. Nothing
- Grace (9/5): Empfehlenswerte Unterkunft mittendrin und trotzdem ruhig. - Zentrale Lage direkt am Fluß und in wenigen Metern mitten im örtlichen Geschehen. Viele shops, Supermärkte Geldwechsler, Restaurants.
Großzügig geschnittenes, sehr sauberes Zimmer mit großem Kühlschrank, Bad und Balkon.
Großartiges Frühstück, mit allem was das Herz begehrt. Western und local food, großzügige Portionen.
Sehr warmherziges und hilfsbereites Personal.
Per Boot kostenloser Transport zum Bentota Beach - konnten wir wegen dem Zyklon leider nicht in Anspruch nehmen. Nichts
- Liivia (9/5): - Väga hea suur tuba ja rõdu. Veespordi huvilistele super. Saab paadi safarit, kalaretke või ka muid veepeal atraktsioone. Üle jõe täpselt suur ja ilus ning rahulik rand. Jalgsi saab linna restoranidesse või poodidesse. Väga abivalmis personal.
- Anthony (10/5): Relaxing but also interesting and entertaining so overall extremely enjoyable! - Great location by the side of the river and close to the sea. Spacious, comfortable air conditioned bedroom and en-suite. Friendly and accommodating staff. Nothing
- John (10/5): Perfect place, you wont do better. Book! you wont be disapointed - It is truly a wonderful experience
The hotel has the most magnificent views, staff exceptional, clean and great facilities.
The only issue I had was with the tv and wifi, both were swiftly and efficiently solved. Breakfast was lovely and we ate our evening meal there on 3 occasions, very good food.
We jet skied, went on a fishing trip and enjoyed the free ferry accross the river to the beach.
I would strongly recommend. We felt like we were trated like family. I honestly cannot find fault
- Neal (10/5): Exciting hotel with great staff & fabulous vistas. - Incredible hotel with wonderful attentive staff. We wish we had taken our road trip the opposite way round which would have enabled us to stay longer at this great hotel & to enjoy more of its facilities & water sports etc.
- William (8/5): Very good -
- Warren (10/5): Exceptional - You can't get a better room in all of Sri Lanka. Beautiful bed, fantastic modern bathroom, even a little fridge with cold drinks. Take advantage of the free boat ride across the river to the ocean beach. We loved it and we recommend it.
- Paula (9/5): Superb - The location overlooking the river was beautiful. The room was exceptionally large and clean.
The staff were friendly and professional and helped with organising the river safari with them, which by the way I would highly recommend.
Breakfast was delicious and plenty of it.
Easy to walk to Bentota and into the town if Aluthgama.
Would recommend a stay here
- Ashok (9/5): Very nice location and exceptional service -
- Tickner (9/5): 2 nights of fun, food & excellent company - Location was great, staff extremely friendly & super helpful!! Boat taxi to the beach was a highlight as was the river safari - a MUST DO! Our room was lovely but aircon not working so we were moved immediately & we also had a fridge brought up to our rooms. Can’t fault their service at all. Nothing to report
- Paula (9/5): Great place to stay, lovely views and super quiet.😊 - It was easy to get too and we could walk out for restaurants and tuktuks. Lovely view over the water and could watch the sun go down. Our AC did not work the first night and it was 30c+ but they sorted the next day - a squirrel or chipmunk had nested in the unit - then worked fine. Could do with some sort of shad on the balcony and maybe 2 subbed not just one. But v minor niggles that did not effect our stay.
- Richard (9/5): Superb - * Great Location
* Good boat service to nearby beach
* Fabulous list of activities
* Room was amazing, and the view over the river was hard to beat Food was overpriced, we chose to eat at a nearby small family run restaurant instead. The hotel should really have a cheaper standard rice & curry option.
- Eleonora (7/5): Great place to enjoy water sports activities - Very good location, excellent food ( they can make you anything you want ) , any kind of water sports activities are available any time , respectful, educated and friendly staff always ready to help you. Would come back . Nothing.
- Eleonora (7/5): Great place for water sports activities - Great location , close to the beach and city centre. Tasty food (the can make you anything you wish) Any kind of Water sports activities.
Spacious rooms…always ready to help, friendly and professional staff. Recommend Nothing
- Matt (8/5): Very good -
- Natalie (10/5): Would definitely return .. even more perfect if you love water sports - It’s tucked away down a back street but once you’re there it’s such a good find .. free boat ride back and forth across the river make it super easy to get to the most beautiful beach … the staff are super helpful .. it’s a very simple but lovely breakfast too every morning..
- Mark (10/5): Exceptional -
- Nikos (10/5): Exceptional -
- Poobendren (8/5): LOVELY HOTEL ON THE RIVER - Stunning location on the river bank.. Hotel has its own jetty and provide a free boat ride across to the beach.
Hotel offers a variety of watersports.
Beaches are very safe to swim.
Very close to the town centre as well.
Very attentive and efficient staff Rooms didn't have a safe or telephone.
Breakfast was underwhelming with not much variety.
Lots of stairs
- Deenadayalan (8/5): Excellent views and situation - Beautiful views from room 1 Elevated expansive view from room of Bentota River.
Large spacious room , big balcony
Attentive polite staff Simple breakfast of fruit juice, fruit, eggs and toast
Nil else
- Simon (10/5): Don't think twice—Manu Banna awaits, FANTASTIC - From the very moment I set foot in Manu Banna, I felt an overwhelming sense of belonging. The warmth and hospitality of the staff wrapped around me like a cherished family embrace. Tucked away by the serene waters of the Bentota River, this charming six-room hotel is a true gem for anyone seeking adventure and relaxation.
Manu Banna specializes in watersports, making it an ideal getaway for thrill-seekers and nature lovers alike. Whether you're kayaking along the tranquil river or taking part in exhilarating water activities, the options are endless. After a day full of excitement, retreat to the comfort of the excellent rooms, where every detail is designed for relaxation.
The culinary experience at the hotel is nothing short of amazing. Each meal presented a delightful combination of local flavors, expertly prepared and served with a smile. And with great Wi-Fi connectivity, I found it easy to share my experiences with friends back home.
But what sets Manu Banna apart is undoubtedly the incredible welcome I received from this family-run hotel. Their genuine passion for hospitality shines through in every aspect of your stay. If you're contemplating a getaway that promises both adventure and a sense of home, don't think twice—Manu Banna awaits, ready to make your visit unforgettable. This place is truly the best.
- Yuhan (10/5): definitely memorable!the beach is beautiful - very nice staffs! great food!fun water sports! the speed of kitchen is slow, but tasty!
- Kristoffer (9/5): Nice location! Good looking hotel. - Very good location! The hotel is very nice, and also offer a lot of water sports that you can book with them. They will take you to the other side of the river for free to visit Bentota beach. They upgraded our room for free, which was really nice! The airconditioner started leaking and broke down during the night. Not really their fault tho, and the room had a ceiling fan so we managed allright. They also locked the gate while we were out eating. We knocked on the gate a couple of times and then just jumped over the stair railings.
- Massi (10/5): Exceptional - All the people working there were so nice and helpful. I had a little accident with a rental Tuktuk and the staff got out of their way to help us organize everything and we had to do nothing.
Also the rooms are wonderful and the activities are so much fun with a reasonable price. If you are near, definetely go to Malu Banna! Everything was perfect!
- Ela (10/5): Great place for a wonderfull vacation - The view was fantastic.
The breakfast was wonderful.
The fruits that were served at the beginning of the breakfast were so very tasty.
The room was spacious and the bed was very comfortable. Our room was on the 3-rd floor and there is no elevator...
- Ewelina (10/5): I recommend totally - Room was amazing, very big and modern, great view, staff was helpful and smiling a lot. We also used ski jet, great service, very professional. We ate the same things for breakfast every day but the lady who was serving it had poor english, maybe she was not able to present all the possibilities well ;)
- Claire (10/5): Picturesque Modern Hotel by the River - This picturesque modern hotel by the river’s edge. The photos don’t do it justice! My room was modern, spotless, comfortable and spacious but most of all it had a huge covered balcony, with spectacular views across the river.
There is an attached restaurant with fresh and tasty food.
Excellent wifi connectivity.
Tucked away from the road and railway line but easy to walk or catch a tuk tuk into town.
A family run business, which also owns a water sports centre by the same name. If you wanted to get to the beach, they would drop and pick you up using one of their boats. I also arranged a river cruise, with them, which was amazing, and at a reasonable cost.
I would have no hesitation in recommending this stunning hotel. Nothing
- Mikko (10/5): Exceptional - Me and my wife stay 5 nights at Malu Banna hotel.
This place has amazing customer service, rooms are kept clean every day and hotel staf will do anything so you can relax and enjoy your holiday.
There are plenty water sport activities here and riwer has only small wawes so you can go watersport at any day.
In Malu Banna there is great possibility to have fishing trip to ocean or to local riwer. We had both and catch & eat fish food. Yammy!
One person who has to be mentioned is Chatu. Great fisherman with many helpfull tips with my own fishing gear to use and catch fish.
Also from here is easy acces to beach as hotel is offering free transport both ways. Bentota beach area has wide sand beach with not that many people there. -
- Verified traveler (10/5): - It was cleen and good staf. The wew over the river was whery nice
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Als ich beim Suchen einer All-Inclusiv Unterkunft zufällig auf Malu Banna gestossen bin, hat es mich gleich angesprochen und habe mich, basierend auf die Bewertungen, kurzfristig den Entschluss gefasst meinen Urlaub im Malu Banna zu buchen und habe die Entscheidung nie bereut. Wir hatten ein sauberes Zimmer an besonderer Lage, direkt am Fluss, zentral gelegen, ein Wassersport-Center und ein leckeres Restaurant. Was aber am meisten begeistert hat, waren die lieben, zuvorkommenden und freundlichen Menschen die wir um uns hatten, die sehr darum bemüht waren, dass wir uns wohl fühlen. Ich kann Malu Banna jedem der nicht zwingend auf einen fehlerlosen 5-Sterne Service angewiesen ist, wärmstens empfehlen.
- Saleh (8/5): فندق للاستجمام والالعاب المائية - جميلة واطلالتها روعه على النهر ..لايوجد ثلاجة في الغرفة وكذلك لا توجد كواية
- Anuja (6/5): - The room was clean. However, the blankets and tray/cups etc. in the room weren't. The tray holding the cups, plates and spoons/forks in the room was full of dust and the blanket had a stain from previous use. Also, the food service staff was untrained and slow. That was quite disappointing, given the fact that the food prices were quite high.
Also, the floor in the room was slippery and a hazard for sure. Hope they work on making it slip-proof.
On the bright side, the staff was friendly and welcoming. They were helpful in arranging complementary pickup from a previous hotel we stayed at and paid airport drop for us.
The location of the hotel is good, but I think they can do better with the services at Malu Banna.
- Pia (10/5): Lovely stay! - I really don´t know where to begin when it comes to describe how much we liked it at Malu Banna! The staff made everything they could to make us feel more than welcome, including arranging trips, arranging speciial foods and treating us with a lovely farewell dinner our last night. The location is great with closeness to both the shopping and the river, and since they take you by boat the short way to the beach its no problem to get there (no more than 10 minutes walk anyway).
The rooms are spacious, clean and quiet, and the view towards the river and all the action going on with the watersports is fantastic entertainment. But what we apreciated most of all was the warmth and the genuine feeling around the staff and the hotel. See you next year!
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Fantastic hotel. Lovely location on the river. Short walk to beach or they will take you by boat. Walking distance to lots of lovely restaurants or malu banna have their own.Room very clean bed really comfortable.lovely breakfast .could not fault anything.
- Verified traveler (8/5): good place for short stay - this hotel is overall good. location close to a bridge, a bit noisy at night. soundproof of the room is ok, but if you want to open a balcony it may be a problem with noise from the bridge and sports center. rooms big, much space, great bathroom size, good cold/hot water pressuer, nice balcony. boat ride accross the rives for free to get to the beach, pickup on the way back too for free. great bentota beach, not too many tourists.
- Michael (8/5): Good value for money - Nice patio overlooking to the water. Nice simple spacious rooms
- Verified traveler (10/5): - There is nothing I could fault about this hotel. We were given a complimentary room upgrade and were warmly welcomed by Chathura, Managing Director, and the hotel staff. Our room was spacious, beautiful and offered a stunning view from the balcony. Everything that we ordered from their menu was superb and we ended up having dinner there every night. We had a magnificent time at Malu Banna and would high recommend this place for your stay in Bentota.
- BERNADETTE (10/5): Will Not Be Disappointed! - Not on the beach, but the staff, the room and the very quick speedboat (less than 2 minutes) to the beach made up for it!
Opened in January 2017. The bed was so comfortable. The room was spacious with a large bathroom and a balcony.
Great venue for water sport lovers.
- Paul (10/5): Hübsches Hotel, mit viel Liebe und super Essen!! - Würden wir jederzeit wieder machen. Das Hotel bietet einen kleinen Boots-Shuttle zum Menschen-leeren Strand. Hat uns super gefallen!
- Paul (10/5): - Great room, with a fab view over the lagoon and sea in an interesting part of town. Staff are really good. I would definitely stay there again.
- Paul (10/5): - Fantastic room with stunning views over the lagoon and the sea. Situated in a lovely neighbourhood that was more genuinely authentic than the beach hotels. Fantastic service. (small) issues were dealt with very quickly and efficiently. Staff were incredibly helpful. Food was fantastic. Good value for money. I would definitely stay there again if I was ever in the area. Highly recommended.
- Gabriela (10/5): Amazing stay - The hotel is just at the lagoon and the views are perfect. We were taken by a small boat to the beach so it was less than five minutes to reach it. The fresh para fish we had for dinner was truly excellent, compliments to the cook. And they sang “happy birthday “ and gave a complimentary cake for my birthday :)
- Bengt (10/5): - Malu Banna is a great place if you want to have a stay with water sports, adventures, good food and nice rooms. I certainly would like to come back.

- Bengt (10/5): Fint hotell vid floden. - Charmigt hotell med utsikt över floden. Närvarande och mycket trevlig personal som verkligen vill hjälpa till.
- Kristian (8/5): Schysst hotel med bra mat och trevlig personal! - Vi bodde på Malu Banna i slutet av vår vistelse i Sri Lanka och blev glatt överraskade. Rummen var nybyggda, stora och fräscha med härlig balkong mot vattnet. Super trevlig personal som var väldigt hjälpliga och trevliga. Malu Banna har väldigt god mat, vi åt den bästa curryn och helgrillad fisk där. Frukosten var ok, med toast, frukt och ägg. Hotellet erbjuder förutom väldigt god mat mycket vattenaktiviteter, vi var och surfade och paddlade kannot, säger man till lite innan så styr de upp det mesta. Hotellets lägga var väldigt bra, nära stan och stranden. Personalen skjutsar med båt till stranden.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Perfect Simplicity! - Rummen var helt fantastiska, nya och fräscha samt även frukosten var riktigt bra. Resturangen erbjöd också riktigt bra mat. Ägaren var väldigt social och hjälpte till med mycket tips om vad man kunde göra.
