Traveler impressions of Bentota
Bentota beach is very beautiful and with calm waters good for swimming. The waters are much calmer than in other beaches on the west and south coast, making it easier to swim but not giving any opportunities for surfing or body boarding.
all the enjoyment is in the water, good place to see a see forest and have a good fish theraphy massage.
Although we were only able to do a day trip to Bentota as most of the properties were full. The location would be ideal for a 3-5 days' stay and there is plenty to do in terms of night life dining and activities on the beach and water.
A rather small city. Bentota river safari is one of the main attraction. Beach is exceptionally clean.
There are many upscale resorts. You'll probably spend the most time in the resort so choose a comfortable one.
There are few eating options in the area itself, we ate at Luccullus reataurant/hotel a cheap place just across the railway walkover from the Avani, the food was quite good and recommend this place as a budget option, we also had a meal at The Malus Restaurant, walk towards the railway walk over and keep going, it's upstairs above some souvenir shops just on the other side of the tracks, food is first class but fairly expensive, same as you would pay at home, you have to keep in mind that most places charge you at least 10% on the bill and some mostly more upmarket places another 12% as well, there's not a lot of options out of the hotel and what's there is mostly expensive seafood places, snacks, roti's and samosas are everywhere and very cheap to keep you going, so hard for budget travellers, hard to find places in Sri Lanka to do laundry out of the hotel, I couldn't find any in Bentota.
friendly people. nearby chopping centers. places to visit specially the fort and the museum the jewellery factory and fishermen village but when you took their picture dont give them the amount of the money they ask for just pay them half of what they ask.
Being a tourist hot spot for a long time, Bentota has always been a frequent item in tour itineraries.
The beach would be beautiful but sadly is totally dominated by 5 star resorts. There are no cafes or facilities.
City was nice and the people were kind and nice even thou they are very poor... Vivanta by taj hotel is your distention.
Poor area! Very few bars and restaurants around. Not much of attractions or activities. Expansive food (x2 compare to Negombo).
Bentota is unfriendly and not cosy at all- Hikkaduwa a few km away was relly good! People were sneeking around us and one man followed us after our ATM visit.
my advice : do not stay there. a few resto (russian or very expensice in resorts only), did not see any tourists, did not see the beach (nothing on the beach anyway)
Met a young guide called ansh who was great - honets and his prices fair. He looked after us and made our stay a great time.
Bentota is place which should no0t be missed if you are in srilanka tour as it is one of the best beaches and during weekends it has good night clubs as well.
Bentota itself doesn't have a village/town of attraction as such. Bentota is about hte beaches, and staying within the perimeters of the hotel that you are staying in.
we didnt go into bentota but from previous experience with similar small towns they are all noisy and mad with traffic.
A quaint and small beach town ... lovely old railway station and nice to see local playing football
located 100 km from colombo towards south,easy accessibility via express high way,nice beach lot of activity fro young children like boating,swimming,sea scooter,surfing mainly family relaxing zone.
City Bentota is not beautiful, there are some other beaches adjacent to this area, you can see all the attractions from one place.
It is weird that in a place filled with foreigners, that there is so little to do. The souvenir shops are very hard to find.
private beaches, close to hikkaduwa where you can scuba dive and a lot of other sports activities like boat riding
Prefer the countryside, maybe 3 km inland, less tourists and more interesting things, very nice local people.
Nice places to get Sri Lankan antiques but one should bargain well to get something that is worth the money.
Beaches are beautiful wear sunscreen and stay hydrated. Herbal gardens some advice would be to ask exactly how much donation they want for the demonstration massage beforehand and watch out for wondering hands when massaging especially as a woman and say what is off limits it is very informative
If you are a fan of architecture, there are some places in bentota designed by famous architect, Geoffrey Bawa.
There are nice hotels in this area. Beaches are nice. City areas are not very well developed, but you will find shopping areas and food courts around.
Beaches, relaxation and Spa, Turtle Farms, sightseeing and a tour around, nothing much for shopping.
This is a sleepy town,it gets very quiet after dark,there is no night life or restaurants of good standard,it is ideal for relaxing and getting some rest and ideal place to get away from the daily chores to relax for a couple of days with a nice long evening walk on the lovely sandy beach after dinner but no action for the younger traveller.

More about Bentota
Bentota is a coastal city, and the main attraction is arguably Bentota Beach, which offers a beautiful and clean beach with a very clear and calm sea perfect for several days of swimming, diving, snorkeling, or just soaking up the sun. There are several hotels ranging from luxury beach resorts to modest guesthouses, located just steps from the sea.
The Bentota River Safari which goes along Bentota River and lagoon is a popular activity among visitors to this area. The safari takes visitors on a cruise along the river, where you get a chance to see reptiles and other creatures, or enjoy water sports such as jet skiing. Most hotels will help their guests arrange these tours and activities, and planning as early as possible is advised.
Bentota is home to beautiful botanical gardens and nature reserves, two of which were built by two highly respected landscape architects who also happened to be brothers. A few hours of walking among the beautiful landscaping of Brief Garden or Lunuganga would certainly be time well spent.
