The breakfast buffet was very good and the quality of treatments at the spa did not disapoint.
However, we were disappointed with the general professionalism of the staff considering it is a 5 star resort. The staff was kind and friendly but just not up to the standard one would expect of a 5 star hotel. Here are a few examples: at the pool we ordered some food and when we were going to sign for the bill, the waiter said they had made a mistake and charged us for a dish that was 0.50 USD more than what we had ordered. He asked us if we didn't mind paying the extra amount so that they didn't need to redo the bill. Of course we didn't mind as its such a small difference (so we accepted) but out of principle, if a mistake is made by the staff, they should know to just fix the error rather than asking the guest to make up for their mistake (however small). We were also disappointed at dinner that the two a la carte restaurants were only open on alternate nights as it meant we couldn't get a table until 9 pm which is late with kids. Also the first wines we tried to order were out of stock. Finally on the second night at the Italian, three of the dishes we chose were unavailable. This is understandable as it is end of season, but again is not expected at a 5 star hotel. That said, the quality of the food at the Italian was really very good.
As for the rooms, although comfortable, the extra maintenance effort is lacking. The hot and cold water in the shower was very difficult to control; the light in the small magnifying mirror in the bathroom was not working and the main telephone in the room did not work.
Lastly, we visited the spa and although the overall experience was very good and the therapists were experienced, it was disappointing to have to wait over half an hour (after our scheduled appointment time) for our treatments.
Overall, this felt more of a 3-4 star hotel than 5 star.

The hotel itself probably needs an uplift e.g. pool deck is old, pool lounge chairs are broken, walls need a new coat of paint, however we enjoyed our stay as the pool and hotel surroundings are quite nice. Food at the restaurant was surprisingly good. Room was large and air cond worked well, beds are big. Bathroom needs updating but shower was strong and good temperature. Overall, a good hotel but don’t expect 5 stars.

A short distance from Colombo, Katutura is ideal for a long weekend if you are based in Colombo. There are plenty of things to see in the area and you can always arrange a visit to Galle through your hotel.

Just the right location.
Just the right location. Not too far from Colombo but has the nice secluded feel, away from the hustle and bustle of the city.
Close to a lot of places to visit - Kalutara temple, Bentota for water sports, Kosgoda Turtle Hatchery.
Overall, a great place to be in!!

The area is quite, and not far from water sports activities. The problem is that there are no decent restaurants or coffees near by. You are opted to only eat at the hotel, unless you are adventurous. You are better off to go a bit more south or north and close to the capital to find reasonable restaurants and coffees etc. If you like to each and just stay within the resort then you will be OK as hotels in the area offer everything you need.

Kalutara is a great place for a short stay.
Kalutara is a great place for a short stay. While it is not as crowded with tourists and activities when compared with her neighbouring districts Colombo and Galle, it is quite special in it's own simplicity. The sights generally known to see are few and are quite close too each other. A day to sightsee and enjoy the city, a day to enjoy the hotel and it's facilities and a day for the beach and surrounding neighbourhood is in my opinion the ideal way to plan a trip to Kalutara.
The best place you must visit in my opinion is Jeoffrey Bava's garden. The place is great to walk around, take some beautiful photos and run around a little.
My girlfriend and I recently stayed at the Turyaa, and we had a pleasant experience. The dinner and breakfast included in our half-board package were delicious and offered a wide variety of options. The staff was generally friendly, although we did encounter a few who seemed a bit cunning. The hotel had two pools, and the larger one was particularly enjoyable. We also loved the nice sea view from our room, and the facilities were in good condition. Overall, we had a comfortable and satisfying stay.
Had a great stay at Tangerine with my family. We were going around Sri Lanka and stayed in many hotels and I must admit Tangerine has the best ambiance and the interior of all the hotels we stayed. Also every member of the staff provided a consistent service throughout our stay. Breakfast buffet had many options and the quality of the food and the taste up to a city 5 star hotel. Only disappointment was weather so we could not enjoy all the outdoor facilities provided by the hotel.
It is rather small hotel 20-22 villas, situated in a beautiful green garden with a nice pool and access to a large and long beach. We stayed in a single unit villa. The highlights of the villa are the large bathroom with open air part and the large and comfortable bed.
The restaurant of the hotel is a highlight too - very good food choices and quality (morning and evening buffet), as well as the service.
It was absolutely amazing! We arrived very late but the host Ani waited for us. We extended another two nights and had a great start in Sri Lanka. Ani is super cute and prepared us a beautiful breakfast in the morning. Location right next to the beach with not too many tourists around.
I felt very safe in the hotel, the security was top notch and being that close to the beach was amazing. The bar staff were exceptional and made me feel so welcomed as soon as I arrived. The variety of food at breakfast and dinner was always excellent too!
Great for swimming a little bit down the beach there is a wave break. The owner literally did everything he could to make our stay comfortable, including sending out a staff member 20km to get my daughter some sweet potato (she's special needs)
Tangerine is one hotel we have seen over the years has improved in every aspect. Their staff is the best when it comes to customer service. Food is top notch with so many varieties to choose from. All in all very high value for money you pay.
Wonderful & very close beach view villa. Its perfect place for ur birthday party or enjoy ur holiday in beach side. 100% safety + friendly service + very clean. Place and view everything are same as the images they are added on booking.com
This hotel was just amazing ! With 3 mins walking you can find a good beach to swim but it is little bit rough but still usable ❤️ and the uncle who take care of this villa is so nice and a kind person ! I highly recommend this place
The hotel and staff were very welcoming and helpful. All staff in various areas of the hotel were excellent. Nothing was too much trouble and service given with great dedication. Also very child friendly and attentive
Big spread for breakfast catering to every taste, though a little variation each day would have been nice. The staff were very pleasant gentle and helpful, the hotel is well-designed for the price.
Very cozy and quiet place. Very helpful and friendly staff. Beautiful garden. Literally less than a minute walk to the beach. Would definitely come again and recommend for a quiet relaxing holiday
Everything was perfect. They also gave us an upgrade. My kids also had a great time. I highly recommend this resort for a pleasent vacation.
The staff are super friendly, all of them. Thank you
I liked the private access to the beach and the cleanliness of the beach. Rooms were up to the standard too. Staff were also doing their best to support guests!
