With beautiful views from every room and a balcony to enjoy them from, –the Royal Palms Beach Hotel is a sumptuous and stylish retreat. Sitting in a grove of trees at the very edge of the ocean, it's a picture-perfect location.

Rooms are palatial – full of space and richly appointed with real wood and attractive local features. Among the amenities you'll enjoy are a satellite TV, an in-house video channel, optional piped music, telephone, minibar (at a fee) and an individually controlled air conditioning system – all designed to make you as comfortable as possible. Luxury is the watchword at the Royal Palms Beach Hotel. Kalutara is wonderfully set up for holidaymakers, with great facilities and plenty to see and do.

Family holiday August 2026 Kalutara Sri Lanka

We spent the last three nights of our holiday at this hotel, and it was definitely one of the best places we stayed. It was also one of the highlights of the entire holiday for our children!

The wonderful swimming pools were a big favourite. The kids could enjoy themselves freely throughout the day, which made their stay extra special. The food had a good variety, our room was clean and comfortable, and overall the hotel was very well maintained.

The atmosphere was wonderful — peaceful, relaxing, and perfect for enjoying the final days of our holiday.

We had a fantastic time here and would definitely return on our next holiday. Highly recommended, especially for families with children!

And we keep coming back ......

This is not my first visit to this hotel - probably my 5th or 6th I have lost count .....My husband and I first went as a couple, then with our daughter and now for the 3rd time with the in-laws. The food, ambience and amazing swimming pool is magnetic and keeps drawing us back. This time around we were hosted by Madhusha and Dilhani, gracious ladies who were so attentive and as always the hotel did not disappoint at all. Kudos to the management and entire team for maintaining such high standards over the years.

All most all good except 1

We all enjoyed the place a lot,the food ,the service in the restaurant was mind pleasant , all smiling face nice guys .. The pool was SUPER and the two guys LAHIRU and SANDITH were entertaining us in a decent and a polite way. Enjoyed all. But with a worry I had to make a complain which I didn't want to make , but as your hotel is doing so super you will have to fix this problem. The guy who was their at the 07ft deep side of the pool at 05:00 pm -05/09//2026 ,was not a suitable person in your group. He was not polite, speaking behaviour was very low graded, arrogant guy ,he made us being uncomfortable staying in that place..... I hope you fix the right person in the right place...

Thank you Inamul Hassan Jiyar

A Wonderful Family-Friendly Stay with Delicious Food

We had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The food was delicious, and the rooms were spacious and comfortable. The large grounds provided plenty of space for our child to play and enjoy. The staff were very friendly, welcoming, and helpful throughout our stay. Overall, it was a very pleasant and family-friendly experience.
