The deluxe 4 star Bentota Beach Hotel, now rebranded Cinnamon Beach is located on Bentota Beach 65 kms down the South Coast from Colombo, the commercial capital of Sri Lanka.
Formerly known as the Bentota Beach Hotel, Cinamon Beach is located between Bentota's stunning white beach and the tranquil river lagoon, which is used for water sports, on the other. The Bentota Beach Hotel design was inspired by the Dutch Fort architecture and nestled within 30 acres of coconut plantation. The setting is unusual in that the hotel faces the Indian Ocean on one side and the calm waters of the river lagoon on the other. Entering the hotel the beautiful batik ceiling makes a favourable first impression reinforced by the beautiful pool with rocky outcrops. The batik artist is Ena de Silva
The Bentota Beach hotel design by renowned Sri Lanka architect Geoffrey Bawa was inspired by the Dutch Fort at Galle further down the South Coast. The expansive golden sandy Bentota beach on which the hotel lies allow you to soak up the sun, entertain children, take romantic beach strolls as well as enjoy a stunning Indian Ocean sunset.
