Cinnamon Bey Beruwala

The location of this resort is good. River meets see at this place and there is a lagoon just in front of this property. Good options to relax and play. Badminton (in open), cricket, table tennis, volleyball etc. They have a band, which plays live music in evening; played couple hindi songs for us. Rooms are just fine; we took sea facing rooms.

Room was very comfortable, communal areas were vast and airy, wide choice of food at both breakfast and dinner, deluxe pool was quiet and direct access to the beach.

Had a fantastic two-night stay at Cinnamon Bay Beruwala with my family and absolutely loved it! Right off the bat, the porters were incredibly friendly and efficient with our luggage. The check-in process was smooth and quick, although they didn't accept American Express. No biggie, though; I had other cards. The 3 Superior rooms we booked were super spacious, with all the listed amenities on booking.com. Happy with that! We also opted for rooms with breakfast included, served at the "Büfe" restaurant. The spread was packed with various delicious Sri Lankan dishes and didn't repeat over the days. One thing, though, the place had quite a few flies and some cats wandering around, which might bother some. For lunch and dinner, we decided to dine at Büfe as well, and we were pleasantly surprised by the affordability (keep in mind, I'm comparing it to Swiss prices!). For five adults, our total for one lunch and two dinner buffets came to around CHF 300. Great value! In-room dining service available 24/7 via phone was a plus. Orders were delivered from their Ice Restaurant, which you could also visit. There's a designated smoking area, and I noticed folks respected this, making it comfortable for everyone else. They also had a beautiful swimming pool and a separate kids' pool with a play area - a bonus for families like us. Kudos to the housekeeping, reception, and porter staff, who were exceptionally friendly and helpful throughout our stay! The beach, directly accessible from the hotel, was mostly clean, though a bit rocky, and had some glass pieces. Just be a bit cautious with kids. Our stay started with a welcome drink - a lovely gesture that set the tone for our fantastic stay. Overall, a fantastic experience. Highly recommended!

Property was beautiful itself and location with access to the beach was great. Staff were exemplary. Everyone went out if there way too assist us with every inquiry and request. Highly recommend Cinnamon Bey Beruwala and what live yo visit again.

The service was excellent! The staff were all incredibly helpful and really great with our kids. We loved having a room right next to the Deluxe Pool, which was mostly empty even though it was a busy weekend. The food was amazing, and we especially liked that there was also a lot of authentic Sri Lankan food. Lots of big hotels are so "Westernised" that they would not offer much Sri Lankan food, but here the choice was great!
