Ekho Surf

A great hotel for an emotional holiday. Clean, with a great calm view, with good smiling service. Friendly animal world around. We liked it and are thinking about coming back for a few more days before leaving this island.

nice hotel near beach

Красивый отель , все номера с видом на море , два бассейна . Минусы : нехватка полотенец у бассейна , ждали минут 20 пока нам их принесут ; при выезде из отеля нам предъявили счет из бара , в котором мы ничего не заказывали , разбирались минут 40 , что было не очень приятно

Достойный отель, отличные завтраки и персонал, идеальное расположение на пляже

My partner Rosie and I had the most splendid time here. The staff were extremely effective, friendly, and warm-hearted. Arriving 22nd of Jan and leaving on the 5th of Feb. We chose all-inclusive and the food was excellent. Srilankan cuisine was superb. The entertainment was authentic and fun. We had the most relaxing of times. With the Beach on our doorstep. Safe swimming conditions, excellent surf etc,etc... Everything was catered for. We can not recommend it highly enough. They are a Srilankan owned company. We arranged our travel and accommodation through Tui, and we will do so again. Easy links for travel should anyone wish to adventure further. We headed to Galle by train, which was so easy. Spending the day exploring the old Fort, museums, and literary festival that was taking place at the time of our visit. Sri Lanka offers many opportunities to experience its diverse culture. Arts and culture abound. If you have any desires to experience, Sri Lanka Ekho Surf Bentota Hotel is a great place to start. Massive thumbs up from us. We will return.

My husband and I visited Ekho Surf in January. The property is located by the beach with a wonderful view of the ocean. The rooms are modern and spacious. We picked the room with the ocean and pool view and enjoyed the sunsets. It has two incredible Restaurants so one doesn’t have to leave the property. On our first day after we checked in, we had lunch at the Tuna Turner Restaurant. The chef cooked the most delicious crab curry we tasted during our trip to Sri Lanka. On the second day we had breakfast at the main restaurant located in the hotel. The breakfast buffet spread comprised of continental food as well as some Sri Lankan food. It had a live egg station. For lunch we had a four course meal which was delicious. We would like to thank Sameera and the F&B staff for accommodating our dietary preferences.

We had a fantastic stay at this hotel! The staff were incredibly friendly and went out of their way to ensure I had everything I needed. From helpful recommendations to prompt service, their hospitality was top-notch. Highly recommend this hotel for a pleasant and comfortable stay!

Beautiful view, ambience and service. The staff was very accommodating on everything. Whether it's upgrading the room or providing complementary baby food. A must visit place when I bentota. The railway station and other amenities are also nearby

On the first day, I liked everything, the friendly and courteous staff, there was a full and delicious buffet breakfast, but after 4 days the breakfasts became on the menu, not varied and slightly disappointed in taste. The water pressure in the room has been very weak for the last 3 days, so taking a shower took about an hour. It is not the season, there are practically no tourists, the coffee shop's work schedule is unclear and it is connected with the restaurant. There is constant dampness and moisture in the room, it is often impossible to open windows to the balcony, otherwise the whole room fumes up and things become instantly wet, it is extremely difficult to dry things, but there is a laundry room, the air conditioner must constantly work in the room so that things dry out, the bed linen is damp due to the climate. The room cleaning was pleasant, water is left every day for 0.5 liters per person. There were practically no people in the hotel and tourists are being watched like monkeys, the staff is friendly, but at the end of the trip there is a feigned politeness and a desire to get rid of us as soon as possible…The weather is a complete disappoin**ent, the reviews wrote short-term rain once a day and then the sun, and you can swim in the ocean, as a result, constant rains with small gaps, strong wind. Bottom line: we advise you to fly to Sri Lanka in the dry season, or rather, to select regions of the island that are more suitable for the time of year. Excursions partially save the situation, you can rent a bike yourself, but be prepared that there is practically no chance to find a good and comfortable motorcycle for you, local people rent mostly scooters, sometimes enduro, good classics are left for themselves, it is not possible to see much on such trips, due to the discomfort of landing and disorderly traffic, people, animals.
