The beach view room was amazing with a spacious design. The pool was large and the pool bar was a nice bonus. The breakfast buffet had a good variety of options. The location of the hotel, between the river and beach, allowed us to enjoy both. The extensive tropical gardens provided a serene atmosphere and plenty of sunbeds for relaxation.

The view of the beach was obstructed by trees, so it wasn't easy to see the beach or sea. It was unclear if the salespeople near the hotel were staff members.

The property offers great amenities and activities for all ages, including a nice pool area and a fantastic kids club. The bedrooms are comfortable and the housekeeping staff is helpful. The location is also ideal, with a beautiful beach view and spacious pools. The breakfast and dinner options are delicious, and the option to dine in an air-conditioned area is a plus.

Felt like family, no complaints.

The hotel staff were extremely polite and accommodating, the food was incredibly delicious and excellent value for money, the facilities in the room had a great view of the pool, and the hotel saved our wedding from a tropical storm.

Everything was fantastic.

Beautiful check-in lounge with a lovely bar. Incredibly sweet and amazing staff. Complimentary lunch buffet given for slight check-in delay. Extremely comfortable room, excellent bathroom. Spotlessly clean. Comfy beds and amazing shower. Fantastic pool, huge and clean with a bar. Incredible views of ocean and lake. Water sports available onsite. Buffet meals were amazing with a wide variety of options. Perfect stay, would love to come back.

We stayed for our honeymoon and it was the most wonderful experience! The hotel is stunning, with a beautiful layout and a well-kept garden. The staff were incredibly helpful and friendly, making our stay truly special. Highlights included a private honeymoon dinner and a fascinating history tour by the art curator. We were also impressed by the cocktail making session and the seamless organization by the staff. The beach was quiet and picturesque, perfect for long swims and walks. Thank you to everyone at Cinnamon for making our honeymoon unforgettable!

Totally recommend this hotel.

As trekkers and a group of friends, we loved the pool area, the kids club, and the comfortable bedrooms. The staff, especially Dulman at reception, were incredibly helpful and friendly.

Felt like treated like royalty, nothing too much trouble.

We spent New Year’s at a hotel by the beach with two amazing pools. The hotel was surrounded by luscious greenery and offered a view of a river. The comfortable double bed and the shower were the best parts of the room. We also enjoyed the buffet breakfast and dinner, which had a variety of options to choose from.

The pricing was too steep, we felt that we could have received better service at a more reasonable price. The beach service wasn't great as we had to pay extra for seats on the beach.

The Cinnamon hotel in Bentota provided a truly delightful stay. The spacious and beautifully decorated rooms, along with the large and clean pools, created a comfortable and luxurious atmosphere. The helpful and polite staff made our experience even more enjoyable. The highlight of our stay was when a tropical storm threatened to ruin our wedding on the beach. However, the hotel stepped up and offered to be a last-minute venue, saving our special day. The delicious cuisine and the cultural show by local villagers added to the tropical resort ambiance. I highly recommend this hotel for a memorable stay.

Beautiful architecture, amazing ambience and interiors, fantastic pool and beach, great breakfast, good location.

Nothing bad to say.

Beautiful beachfront location, offering water sports and near city center. Excellent pools and well-maintained rooms. Friendly and helpful staff. Amazing buffet with interactive chefs. Exceptional grounds, gardens, pool, and beach.

The rooms were spacious and comfortable, and the staff was friendly and helpful. The location of the hotel was great, with easy access to both the river and the beach. I particularly enjoyed being able to enjoy water sports and boat rides through the mangrove thickets. The breakfast and lunch options were delicious and satisfying.

There were a few aspects of my stay that I did not enjoy. the toilet in my room was in poor condition and in need of repair.

I had an excellent stay at a hotel near the beach. The pool was nice and the breakfast buffet was perfect. The spacious rooms had comfortable beds and a great view of the garden and pool area. The beach was just a short walk away, which was very convenient. I would recommend this hotel for a pleasant stay.

Cleanliness: The hotel was spotlessly clean from the lobby to the rooms. Hotel facilities: The resort had three pools and a large kids play area, providing plenty of entertainment for families. Location by the beach and river side: The hotel was situated right on the coast, offering access to both the ocean and a beautiful river view. Staff: The staff was friendly and helpful, providing excellent service throughout our stay.

Nothing to mention.

The location offered easy access to the ocean and lagoon. The large, clean pool was fantastic with a bar inside. Water sports and activities were available on-site. The staff was helpful and friendly. The buffet had a variety of food options from different cuisines.
