Had A wonderful stay at Royal Palm beach hotel
We stayed at Royal Palms Beach Hotel for the weekend and had an absolutely wonderful experience.
The food was exceptional, with a great variety of dishes at the buffet, and every item was delicious and full of flavor. The hotel is beautifully maintained, spotlessly clean, and our room was comfortable, spacious, and well-appointed.
The pool was unique and a lot of fun, making our stay even more enjoyable.
What truly made our visit special was the outstanding hospitality. Every member of the staff was warm, friendly, and incredibly helpful. A special thank you to Dilhani, who coordinated everything throughout our stay. She was kind, attentive, and always happy to assist, making the entire experience smooth and stress-free.
We will definitely be visiting again and highly recommend Royal Palms Beach Hotel to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway with family or friends.

Extraordinary
All the workers especially dilhani was extremely friendly and comforting upon our arrival and as we were vegetarians the chef made complimentary dishes to satisfy our stay more than necessary which were soo tasty I can’t put into words. The only sad part is we only stayed two days
Sri gute Launa
It was the best solo trip I have ever taken. Not only did the wonderful island, nature, and ocean contribute to this, but especially the remarkable friendliness of the locals and, in particular, the hotel staff. At no point did it feel like you were being treated well just in the hope of getting a good tip, as is the case in many other countries. I believe friendliness is simply part of the culture here. I got to see many amazing things, and even during the off-season, a vacation on the west coast is definitely worth it. In the south of the island, there are also a few dive shops open during the off-season, which can be reached in about 1.5 hours using PickMe (the local Uber). Unfortunately, I didn't have enough time to explore the entire island. I guess that means I’ll have to come back—and I would love to stay at this hotel again. The food was truly fantastic. Every day there was something for everyone, and (almost) everything tasted incredible.
A special thanks to my personal hotel guide, Hansa—he truly anticipated and fulfilled my every wish. He put in so much effort and found a solution for every problem. My room boy, Chanaka, made sure my room looked brand new every single day. He added sweet little details to the room daily, and I am very grateful to him for making me feel so comfortable. The pool boys, Nimal and Sarath, set up, prepared, and reserved my sunbed by the pool every day without me ever having to say a word. That was really something special. And not to be forgotten is the trainer and entertainer Lahiru (Lion), who kept me active as a solo traveler every day. He played volleyball with me in the water and on land and had many great activity offers to pass the time. That was truly special, and I hope to see you again sometime, buddy! Unfortunately, I don't know the names of all the staff members, but I would like to send a heartfelt thank you to the lovely people at the bar, the chefs, the service team, the men and women at reception, and the kind, warm-hearted people who opened doors for me every day and welcomed me with a smile.
Thank you all for a wonderful time here.
Highly recommended! I will definitely come back one day.
