I stayed here because there were no other hotels close to my business trip.
It's a good hotel compared to other nearby places.
The restaurant's food service is quite slow, so you should visit with plenty of time to spare.

We stayed here previously 8 years ago and are happy to report that the hotel has stayed the same. Their moto was Heaven on Earth and we believe it! We booked 1 night for 7 people on such short notice, we arrived thirty minutes after making the booking and the rooms were spotless and ready for us to enjoy. Everything was fully equipped from the small bathroom amenities to the towels. The staff kindly explained how to use the jacuzzi so we felt safe and secure. The porters carefully but swiftly transported our luggage for us, which we greatly appreciated. We booked halfboard and do not regret it one bit. We were treated like royalty as all of our dishes were served together and on time with when we finished each dish. It was a set menu during the off season (rainy season) for both dinner and breakfast and it was an abundance of food and beverages. The swim was also great even in cloudy weather and so clean, we wanted to spend the whole day in there. The grounds men take very good care of the hotel and we can easily see it as soon as we enter the premises. Wish we could stay longer but we are definitely coming back with our international family and local. Thank you for our stay.
Response from Property: Your heartfelt review has truly made our day! It’s an incredible honor to hear that your stay at Amaranthé Bay felt like "Heaven on Earth," just as it did eight years ago Dilrukshi Rajapakse & Family! To know that our commitment to excellence and creating memorable experiences has stood the test of time fills us with immense pride. We’re so glad that we could accommodate your group of seven on such short notice and ensure a smooth and comfortable arrival. Hearing that the rooms were spotless, fully equipped, and ready for you to enjoy within minutes of booking is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our housekeeping and front office teams. It’s wonderful to know that the guidance provided by our staff regarding the jacuzzi helped you feel safe and secure during your stay. Your detailed praise for the dining experience is particularly heartwarming. During the off-season, our set menu is crafted with care to offer a variety of flavors and generous portions, and we’re thrilled that it left such a lasting impression. Knowing that you felt like royalty, with dishes served promptly and thoughtfully, inspires us to continue delivering exceptional service. We’re equally delighted that you enjoyed your swim despite the cloudy weather and found the pool clean and inviting. The kind recognition of our groundskeeping team’s efforts in maintaining the hotel’s surroundings means so much to us; their dedication ensures every guest is greeted by a serene and well-kept environment. It’s clear that your stay was filled with joy, comfort, and wonderful memories, and nothing makes us happier than knowing we played a part in that. Your plans to return with both your international and local family are the highest compliment we could receive, and we are eagerly looking forward to welcoming you all back. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience so eloquently. We are truly grateful for your support and loyalty over the years, and we’ll be here to ensure your next visit is just as exceptional—if not more! With Heartfelt Thanks, Amaranthé Bay

Very nice, comfortable and clean place. You can stay here more than just one night. Big pool and a very nice bar to have very good cocktails! Try the Frozen Daiquiri Mango from Barkeeper Dilusha! He’s such a nice guy and very friendly! We also have to thanks Sunil, the bar manager! Specially the cappuccino is one of the best coffee I had in Sri Lanka. We spent 4 nights in the junior suite with whirlpool. Amazing room!

Very warmly welcomed by reception. Friendly and attentive staff, and all staff have a positive attitude ‘ can do’ approach to guests. Have dietary issues and the chef and the restaurant staff catered for me extremely well; cooked meals as requested and served meals in a timely manner. Hotel is set in a tranquil and attractive setting, beautiful gardens and view of the lagoon. Beach is in walking distance, as are restaurants and shops. We stayed in a ground floor large suite with 2 person jacuzzi , cleaning standards were excellent. Big thanks to the chefs Dinuka, Rohan, restaurant staff Sunil, Selwa, Kiri. The holiday would have been incomplete without these staff as food is an important part of a holiday. Big thanks to reception Pravin, Myurya, and GM Mr Chandon for assisting us with transport. 😀😀😎😎
