Don’t stay here. You have been warned….
Pros:

The ONLY positive thing I can say about the hotel is that the beach it’s on is lovely. Everything else has been a significant disappointment. The rooms are so average (fridge not working. Then tv not working. Then internet not working). The bathrooms are old and dirty. They clean the rooms at 6pm when you’re trying to shower and get ready for dinnner. They don’t restock simple things like toilet paper or clean towels.
But worst of all, is the food. I’m talking seriously BAD food in the main restaurant. So bad that it became a running joke amongst the two other families we got friendly with while staying here.
This is a 2/3 star hotel masquerading as a 4-star hotel. Do yourself a favour and do your research - there are surely way better hotels in the area of a similar price.

Good beachside stay
Pros:

We stayed at Ekho Surf Bentota for two nights with our family and had a very pleasant experience. It’s a lovely beachfront hotel with direct access to a beautiful stretch of beach, which was perfect for relaxing walks and enjoying the sea.

The meals were very good, with plenty of choices to suit everyone in the family. The staff were consistently warm and welcoming - a special mention to Subhashini from the restaurant, who was especially kind and attentive.

The location is also very convenient. The hotel is close to Bentota train station and just an easy walk or a quick 1–2 minute tuk-tuk ride into town.

Overall, a comfortable, well-located hotel with friendly service. We would happily stay here again.

We had a great time staying at Ekho Surf. The rooms are comfortable, the place is located right on the beach, and has TWO pools! Loved it.

Aruni and Kanchana and Vohara and the entire team went above and beyond to ensure we had a fantastic stay.

Definitely planning to return to Ekho Surf in the near future.
