The Palms

Honest review

Picture it: the salty scent of the sea hangs in the air, soft golden sands stretch as far as the eye can see, and the curve of the bay is fringed with green palms. White waves roll onto the shore as if longing to kiss the velvet beach. A gentle sun shines in a cloudless blue sky, promising yet another breathtaking sunset.

This is the setting in which The Palms unfolds, offering guests an idyllic refuge where every moment becomes a treasure in a whirl of memories.

The sky slowly shifts from blue to soft pink. The sun sinks below the horizon, and the hues grow ever more vivid. Then one of the greatest shows on earth takes the stage, courtesy of nature itself — the sunset. You can enjoy it from the terrace of your own room or from a lounger by the cool pool, favorite drink in hand.

A soft, refreshing breeze blows here day and night, carrying the sounds and scents of the sea, mingled with the delicious aromas that drift across the expansive open grounds. Choosing the perfect place to dine can be as engaging as choosing among the culinary delights laid out on the buffet. The resort has two restaurants and two bars, each offering guests a tropical atmosphere, signature cuisine and a stunning view.

"Ayurveda" means "the science of life." It is an ancient form of healing that fosters overall well-being and harmony in balance with nature and the environment. Inspired by 3,000 years of healing knowledge now known as Ayurveda, all treatments at The Palms' spa are designed to give guests an individual approach in every procedure. Combining holistic rituals with products of natural, plant-based origin, including herbal oils and moisturizing creams, the doctors do everything possible to restore your body and spirit.

The hotel is located on Sri Lanka's southwest coast, in the resort town of Beruwala, right on the shore of the Indian Ocean. The distance to Colombo is 60 km. Airport transfer: around 2 hours.
