Perfekter Strandurlaub im Traumzimmer mit schönster Aussicht
Pros:

Es war ein sensationeller Urlaub ( 6 Nächte im Pandanus) und rundherum perfekt! Wir hatten das Zimmer 510, wunderschön und reduziert stilvoll eingerichtet mit großer Terrasse und traumhaftem Ausblick.
Das Personal superfreundlich und jederzeit hilfsbereit. Besonders hervorheben möchte ich Ms. Poojani, sie hat unseren Check-In gemacht und war während des gesamten Aufenthaltes extrem herzlich und großartig!
Wir hatten kein All-Inclusive-Paket, aber das Frühstück, die á la carte Snacks an der Pool-Bar sowie die á la carte Drinks an der Bar waren ausgezeichnet.
Strand sauber, Liegen immer verfügbar und das Meer herrlich. Wie kommen ganz sicher wieder! Danke nochmal und herzliche Grüße, Tina

Cons:

Nichts!

Pros:

Viešbutis buvo tvarkingas, švarus, maistas ( švediškas stalas) įvairus ir skanus, kambariai erdvūs, valomi kasdiennl, šalia jūros, kurioje galima maudytis.Vieta rami, Bentota miestelis pasiekiamas lengvai. Mes rinkomės čia praleisti- poilsiauti- paskutines 4 naktis po aktyvių kelionių po kitus Šri lankos miestelius. Kaip ir viskas gerai ramiam poilsiui, bet lyginant su kitų miestelių viešbučiais ir ten gautomis paslaugomis, kaina tikrai yra per didelė. Kituose viešbučiuose mokėjom 4-5 kartus mažiau už kambarį naktį, nors tiek maistaa buvo puikus ir kambariai buvo švarūs ir erdvūs,į personalas netgi buvo malonesnis ir lankstesnis, nes tai būdavo nedideli šeimos viešbučiai.

Cons:

Kai mokami tikrai nemaži pinigai, tai būtų malonu, kad vakarienei šalia maisto( švediškas stalas) būtų pateikiamas bent jau vanduo ( dabar vakarienei netgi vandenį reikia pirkti, jau nekalbant apie sultis). Visuose kituose viešbučiuose iki tol vanduo, sultys tiek vakarienės, tiek pusryčių metu buvo nemokami.
Taip pat, tikrai rekomenduotumet pasitikti klientus ne su sulčių gėrimu iš parduotuvės, o su tikromis sultimis ar kokosu arba bent su arbata, arba tada bent jau su vandeniu, nes visur kitur , kur mokėjome žymiai mažiau, pasitikimas ir pirmas įspūdis buvo žymiai kokybiškesnis.
Antra, lankstumas labai apribotas tvarkomis. Praseme pusryčius perkelti į pietus dieną prieš isvykimai , nes mes isvykome paskutine dieną anksti ryte į oro uostą.. Personalas atsisakė, nes pasakė , kad jie įdeda pusryčius į dėžutes ir tokių dalykų neleidžia daryti tvarkos Į
Kalbant apie vaikus, tai jokių pramogų, išskyrus baseiną, viešbutyje nėra.

Pros:

The view from the room was beautiful, and the room was well equipped and clean. The staff were very kind and helpful. The breakfast was delicious and there was a huge selection.

Cons:

The area around the hotel is somewhat deserted, so there isn’t much to see outside the hotel—just a few restaurants, which are also empty.

Very isolated. Accomodates European seniors. No youngsters at the hotel.
Pros:

Clean and staff were very helpful

Cons:

Very isolated. Tired looking. Water was never hot. Just warm for showers. The European guests took sunbeds by placing their belongings before breakfast. There were never enough sunbeds for us to use.

Beachfront paradise
Pros:

I loved the beachfront location and our room was so spacious with beautiful frontal sea view.Seating and sun chairs by the sea were readily available and the attendants were terrific.
Bed was extremely comfortable and the jacuzzi bath a treat.Our anniversary was acknowledged with a chocolate cake delivered by surprise to our room.
The staff were courteous and willing .We were very well looked after by every staff member we encountered.Live music on some evenings was also lovely.

Cons:

There were little things but nothing that took in any way from the enjoyment of our time at Pandanus.

Nice stay at the beach but not a 5* hotel
Pros:

Great location at a beautiful beach, great staff, ocean view from the room, nice beach restaurants in walking distance

Cons:

Breakfast not matching my expectations for a 5* hotel, being charged for espresso and cappuccino in the morning is a no go.
WiFi required frequent logins
Less amenities available

A nice resort in a quiet beach area with friendly staff. The value for money can be improved.
Pros:

The staff were friendly and always smiling. We were offered an upgrade to our rooms which was superb. The beachfront is clean. The swimming pool is really nice. The room service is also prompt. We used the spa and Ms. Putu was excellent with her treatment.

Cons:

We had taken two adjoining rooms, 219 and 220 for four in our family. The room no 220 had a few issues. The bathroom was leaking water from the sink and the air conditioner was also not functioning properly. The television had reception issues. However the management upgraded us to a higher category room after two nights (of a three night reservation). That experience was very good. Wish we had the upgrade after the first night itself. We had taken a bed and breakfast option. The buffet prices for lunch and dinner were quite expensive. We ordered a la carte instead. The staff had language issues and could not quite understand the order and we needed supervisor to double check it. The breakfast was just about good. The other problem was there are a bunch of stray dogs on the beach near the hotel that can be unnerving. It would be helpful if the resort management can keep that in mind. I am providing honest feedback but I will recommend this property to others. I saw many satisfied guests from all over the world in this property having a good time.

Lovely stay! Would recommend this place to friends and family and will certainly visit again
Pros:

The food, location and staff. We were happily surprised to get a free upgrade of our room and also the fact that they allowed for extension of check-out as my husband fell ill!

The staff was so courteous and took care of us very well

Cons:

The only problem we had was with the water bottles they gave us. They provided very small 400ml bottles per room and we were ordering in 4-5 extra per day. Unnecessary usage of plastic.

Instead the hotel can consider placing large bottled water atleast 2l per day.

Since the weather is hot you also tend to drink a lot of water!!

Sympa!
Pros:

L'hôtel est très jolie mais ce que j'ai le plus aimé c'est que les gens qui y travaillent sont très gentils et serviable!! L'hôtel est un peu isolé mais si on veut la tranquilité et une vue exceptionnel c'est l'idéal !
Le petit déjeuner était très bon aussi!

Cons:

J'ai trouvé les lieux commun un peu sales, surtout les vitres malheureusement, ce qui enlevait un peu de charme à l'hôtel et qui ne donnait malheureusement pas l'impression d'être dans un 5 étoiles. Les transat était extrêmement pas confortable aussi.

Relaxing and calm
Pros:

Great location next to the beach. Staff were all friendly and the front desk duo Anton and Chathuri were always very helpful with any queries,. The bar staff Maduranga with his cocktail skills Keevasha and Noel were all attentive and efficient at their job. The whole hotel had a calm and peaceful feel about it. Looking forward to coming again.

Comfortable.
Pros:

Limited a la carte vegetarian options. Buffet at LKR 7000 , much overpriced.

Cons:

The lobby doors being constantly left open to the sea side. This brings in a lot of humid air into the hotel area.
The rooftop furniture needs to be upgraded.

Muito Bom
