Premium hotel with excellent service (9 rooms and a high staff to guest ratio). Sameera was especially helpful. Really outstanding breakfasts. The beach is just 100m away on the other side of the railway line and is fabulous. I can't help but mention the proximity to the railway line with trains running from 0400 till maybe midnight.

We had an amazing stay at Taru Villas – The Long House in Bentota. With only a small number of rooms, the villa feels wonderfully private and peaceful, and the direct access to a splendid beach is truly special. The garden is absolutely beautiful and the pool is idyllic: perfect for relaxing. Breakfast was excellent, the rooms were elegant and comfortable, and the staff were incredibly kind and attentive throughout our stay. A calm, luxurious escape that we would happily return to. Highly recommended!

We stayed at this hotel for 8 nights, and it was an unforgettable experience 😍 The hotel’s location is amazing 👍🏽 The beach is just a one-minute walk away, and there are jungles and a railway nearby. A beautiful, clean, cozy, and spacious hotel! The room was large, with a beautiful design and a big, soft bed.Thank you to the staff for an incredible stay ☺️ Special thanks to Nimesh, Sahas, Chanaka, and Kavidu, who made our vacation truly unforgettable 🫶🏽 The staff were extremely professional. We felt like royalty while staying here. The food and drinks were absolutely delicious! Everything was top-notch. Thank you so much 🙏🏽❤️

5 🌟If you get the chance to stay at Taru Villas - The Long House, DO IT!! What an experience to stay here. We got the room with a view of the pool, and it was a stunning piece of luxury.The bedroom was out of this world and the bathroom was super spacious. The hotel is magnificent and the attention to detail in every nook and cranny is a joy to behold.The staff were exceptional and took care of everything that was needed and wanted. Situated near the beach, a short walk and you are on the golden sands. Unfortunately, due to the wind, we were unable to swim in the sea.The breakfast was incredible and I still think about it 3 weeks later.The worst part is that we stayed here at the start of our vacation, and it set the bar incredibly high for the rest of Sri Lanka.
Location
The villa is located in Bentota, 1.2 miles from Bentota Lake.Head south along the Galle Road (A2) from Colombo. Pass through Aluthgama Town and over the Aluthgama/Bentota Bridge and continue for about a kilometre. Just before the 63rd kilometre post, The Long House is clearly marked on your right. Bentota and the South of Sri Lanka offer an abundance of opportunity for activity, sightseeing, and culture. The villa staff will be happy to arrange any activities either prior to or after your arrival.
