Diverse Culinary Experience

The buffet at Club Palm Bay had a wide range of options that catered to everyone in my family. Although we found the seafood offerings didn’t match our expectations, the varied meats like chicken, beef, and pork were always well-prepared and delicious. There was always something new to try, making meal times enjoyable.

Impressive Pool Facilities

The hotel features one of the largest pools in Sri Lanka, which was great for both relaxing and engaging in water sports. I appreciated that there were plenty of loungers available, and the pool area was always kept clean. It was a fantastic spot to unwind after a day of exploring.

Comfortable Accommodations

I stayed in a spacious ground floor room that had a lovely seating area and was cleaned daily. Despite the need for updates, the air conditioning worked well, and the comfortable decor made it feel like a cozy retreat. I appreciated the extra attention to detail from housekeeping.

My stay at this hotel was absolutely delightful! The location offered stunning lagoon views, and the warm welcome set a positive tone for my visit. The food was a highlight with a delicious and colorful dessert selection. However, the mattress in my room was quite hard, which affected my comfort a bit.

I had a fantastic stay at Club Palm Bay in Sri Lanka. The activities were plentiful, and the evening entertainment with the animation team was a highlight. The food was amazing, with great selections, although there was room for improvement in the cocktail offerings. It's also worth mentioning that the beach was not directly accessible from the hotel, and I had a few run-ins with some local dogs. Overall, the experience was delightful, especially thanks to the exceptional service from the staff and particularly Mr. Ranaweera.
