"Great breakfast. Great food altogether. They were a bit odd about when we could access the beach. It was closed from 12 to 3. Which was weird but other than that a great place."

"The location (Bentota, Induruwa) and Pandanus hotel is the best option for the beach accomodation if you are looking for a modern 4* medium size, well kept, reasonably priced hotel. Clean beach because it is 2-3 km from the town, so, only a few options to eat outside in a walking distance."

Excellent location with 2 large swimming pool overlooking the beach. Plenty of beach chairs and the pool staff made sure that we stay comfortably in the shade enjoying the sea view. We stayed on all inclusive package and lots of choices of tasty food were available throughout the day. Excellent customer services by Shanduni, Varuni from the restaurant, Prasanna -cleaning staff, Raju from the bar. We will highly recommend this resort and definitely stay again on our next visit to Sri Lanka.

First time in Sri Lanka. Simply one of the best hotels we have stayed in anywhere. Friendly, courteous staff who couldn't do enough for us, a superb room with a balcony offering a beautiful beach view. We stayed five nights and didn't bother to eat anywhere else - the food was excellent. We wanted to take the chef home with us. We took long walks along the beaches and spent a lot of time in the wonderful hotel grounds and by the very stylish infinity pool. We want to visit Sri Lanka again soon...

Nice hotel and place to relax, only things to maybe improve would be to add some ventilation to the bathroom as it turned into a sauna and to maybe increase the amount purchased for the restaurant as it did regularly not have my first choice of food - not great as there aren't many other options in the locality

Both the breakfast and dinner buffets were fresh with a good range of choices, regularly changed. All the staff were friendly and helpful. Methuli on the front desk was particularly helpful. I highly recommend this hotel and look forward to planning a return visit

Loved this property. The reception was so friendly and welcoming. The pool is lovely. The food and drinks (aside from one mistake) was good and reasonably priced. We often had the beach to ourselves. A few things, such as the gym and probably do with a bit of an update/clean but it was the end of the season and there were very few people to use it.
The TV was good for English speakers, should you want news or movies. The hair dryer and mirror were outside of the shower and toilet area,...

This is a very nice hotel and we were extremely well looked after by the attentive staff. The hotel sits just back from the beach and all 28 spacious and comfortable rooms look out over the lovely pool and garden to the ocean. The hotel is in a very quiet location but is surrounded by the turtle beaches and is not far from the Wadu River. It is ideal for those wanting a couple of days of rest and relaxation at the end of a tour of Sri Lanka or for those wanting a longer period of pampering....

This is an ideal hotel to unwind and when you have, go explore the real Sri Lanka. Our Tuk-Tuk driver was superb in helping us with every thing out side the hotel, ie eating out for a change and trip, his name is Thomas. hope you enjoy the experience as much as we did.

A nice hidden spot near the railway station with fleeting views of the beach, friendly staff and access to the gym next door. It’s a reasonable walk to Turtle Bay, but the main restaurants/bars are approximately 15 min walk away. BUT, a Tuktuk is like £1 (GBP) so very reasonable. A great stay overall.

We had an amazing stay at hotel Dormero. The hotels right in front of the beach which made it very convenient for us to go around swimming and other beach activities which were nearby. The room itself was kept spotless with daily housekeeping. The staff were very nice and polite. We even had the opportunity to celebrate new years with the staff and eat amazing food. Thank you for a lovely stay. Would recommend.

Great place, great location! beach just 100 meters, pool 50 meters, amazing rooms & great view, great staff ( helped us with early check-in) and always ready to help. Other attractions near by - Bentota river, water sports, great local market 10 minutes walk from hotel for small souvenirs.
The only thing perhaps that can be improved is a) room service experience b) more variety in food during breakfast and dinner

Nice location right on the beach with comfortable sun loungers and plenty of shade, if desired. my husband liked the fact that the pool was shaded too. Staff were friendly and helpful

The hotel is newly opened and some parts are not yet operational like the ocean wing and some of its restaurants.
However we loved our stay and wish to come back when the hotel has 100% occupancy.
The food the room the service is a class apart. The staff delights you from the time u enter and the time you exit the hotel..
I loved the way they welcomed us with a cultural dance and bid us good bye by tying a yellow thread in our hand for a safe journey..

My partner and I stayed at the Surf Hotel for 10 days in February 2018.
Our room was a good size with a comfy double bed, good clean bathroom and a great view of the pool and beach from our balcony. We could literally roll out of bed and on to a sun lounger in the morning and roll off the sun lounger into the sea...fantastic location.

The resort was very smart, and beautifully appointed. Staff were constantly cleaning, and tidying in the grounds, and the restaurant workers and poolboys very attentive.
