We had lunch here and the food was exceptional. They cook fresh tuna steaks and asks how well done you want it. Lovely views as well from the restaurant and good service.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I had an amazing stay at Kumu Beach Hotel! From the moment I arrived, the staff made me feel incredibly welcome with their warm hospitality and attentive service. The location is stunning — right by the ocean with breathtaking views, and the peaceful, boutique-style atmosphere made it the perfect escape. The rooms are beautifully designed: modern, clean, and comfortable with thoughtful touches throughout. I especially loved the infinity pool overlooking the beach — ideal for relaxing at sunset. The food was also a highlight — fresh, delicious, and beautifully presented. If you're looking for a tranquil, stylish getaway with exceptional service, I can't recommend Kumu Beach Hotel enough. I’ll definitely be coming back!

Hidden Gem in Paradise – Absolutely Outstanding!I came down to Sri Lanka for meetings on Thursday and Friday, with more lined up on Monday and Tuesday. Over the weekend, I took the chance to get out of the city and escape Colombo—and I’m so glad I did. Kumu Beach is a true hidden gem and one of the best boutique hotel experiences I’ve ever had.From the moment I arrived, the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, making me feel instantly relaxed and at home. The rooms are beautifully designed, spacious, and immaculately kept, offering stunning views and a real sense of calm and luxury.The chef at Kumu Beach is outstanding – every meal was a world-class experience, easily on Michelin star level. Each dish was a delight, blending creativity with fresh, local ingredients and flawless execution.The service was exceptional throughout my stay. Every staff member went the extra mile, always attentive, warm, and professional.If you’re in Sri Lanka and want to treat yourself to something special, Kumu Beach is a must. Peaceful, elegant, and unforgettable – I’m already looking forward to coming back.Highly recommended!

From the moment we booked until the day we checked out, the staff made us feel genuinely welcomed. Their warmth and attentiveness stood out throughout our stay.The food was great, and the space was spotless. One of the highlights was the daily happy hour, where complimentary drinks were served to all guests—such a lovely touch! I was also pleasantly surprised to find that all the mini-bar items were free.The pool area was another standout feature—heated and complete with a jacuzzi, making it a perfect spot to unwind. The hotel is also very family-friendly, even offering a dedicated kids’ menu.Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for comfort, care, and great value.
Location
Balapitiya Beach is a relatively untouched stretch of sand onSri Lanka’s sunset coast. Ambalangoda, a centre for arts andcrafts, is a 5-minute drive away, as is the launch pad for boattrips along the wildlife-filled Madu Ganga river. Galle Fort canbe reached in 1 hour, while you can get to Bentota, for watersports and the enviable garden estates of the lauded Bawabrothers in half an hour.
