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.

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.

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.

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 :)

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.

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!

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.
