Centara Ceysands Resort & Spa Bentota

With an exotic location on the Bentota Peninsula, a narrow strip of land that runs between the Bentota River and the Indian Ocean, Centara Ceysands Resort & Spa Sri Lanka has dreamy views of the slow-moving river and its mangroves to one side, and to the other side views of the golden beach and blue sea. Access to the resort is also exotic, with guests enjoying a two-minute boat journey across the river to the warm welcome waiting in the lobby.

The resort offers accommodation options to suit the needs of couples and families alike with a choice of 165 rooms and suites ranging from 37 to 139 square metres in size, each including a furnished balcony or terrace looking out across the peaceful river with its palm trees and mangroves, or over the blue ocean. Each room is designed in an eclectic fashion with vivid colours that will make you feel at home, and there is the option of staying in rooms just a few steps away from the pool.
