Nice place for a night or two
The pool is fantastic and the staff are extremely warm and welcoming. The gardens are pretty and our room was spacious, clean and the air conditioning, bed and shower were all good. The entertainment amenities (bikes, golf, tennis, games room etc) are very dated and could use a refresh - but we were mainly there for the pool and to break up the journey to Wilpattu after flying into Colombo, so it was fine for us and what we needed. There is nothing around the resort so best to book the all-inclusive or half board unless you have a driver.
To juz moj drugi pobyt w tym hotelu. Domki mieszkalne usytuowane sa na terenie duzego ogrodu wsrod pieknej i egzotycznej roslinnosci. Na wyposazeniu pokoju jest duze i wygodne lozko, lodowka, umeblowany taras. Woda pitna uzupelniana jest codziennie. Jedzenie pyszne i urozmaicone, kazdy znajdzie cos dla siebie. Basen duzy z mnostwem lezakow wokół niego. Procedura covid przestrzegana jest na kazdym kroku: maseczki, rekawiczki, plyn do dezynfekcji. Szczegolne podziekowania należą sie calemu personelowi zawsze uśmiechniętemu i zyczliwemu.

No essential room amenities like toothbrush/toothpaste/shaving equipment.
While the food was quite good, the hotel itself is old and tired and most of the service staff do not know what service is...the pool bar has 1 menu card so you have to wait till the next table chooses their food..1 steward for the entire pool bar as well..great facilities for water sports in the pool..a mini BB court..mini golf, futsal etc..all that is good but with large crowds like on that holiday weekend the pool gets pretty full and also pretty dirty...
It's a very old resort and the facilities have not been updated in ages. Most of the food at the buffet is horrible, food you order via room service is horrible and takes more than an hour to arrive, and most of the staff cannot speak in English. The WiFi has a reasonable speed (around 8 Mb/s download), however is shared between 3 rooms at a time so if anyone else is on the network you are screwed.

호텔은 전반적으로 좋으나 서비스는 별로임.
전반적인 서비스는 4성급 호텔보다 못함.호텔은 좋음.직원들의 서비스가 별로임.몇몇 직원은 인종차별적인 행동을 함.
I hope I have selected the correct images . It was great time there though short . Staff were very friendly and helpful. I must congratulate for having a good mixture of members from the Sinhalese and Tamil community
Friendly staff, amazing pool, little to do locally
Spacious clean rooms, enormous pool. Brilliant for kids with a shallow section all the way around the edge. Only downside to the pool is that there was very little shade in the water (plenty of shade on the side if you wanted it). Staff all super friendly and helpful with our two kids (ages 2.5yrs and 7 months). Very little to do in the vicinity (a couple of restaurants nearby - we rated Tao - a 5 min walk south), but a couple of enterprising tuktuk drivers outside the gate will take you on local tours for a small fee. or local tour guides can take you on 2-3 day tours (a/c minibus) further afield to some of the more popular sights.
Buffet extensive with a good variety of food.
Nice place . we enjoyed to the max. The place was nice. We were allocated a room as per our request.
It is a very calm and quite place. food was excellent.
We enjoyed our stay at Club Palm Bay as a family. Good food, service and comfort.

Nice stay
Nice hotel. We got a very reasonable price for our booking. Rooms are very good and spacious. Food is nice too. Well maintained garden and over sized swimming pool are iconic. Nice stay, but late checkout was not possible, although the booking is included a free 2 hour late checkout.
Enjoyed a 2 night stay at this hotel and was given a lovely big room with comfortable furniture although the bathroom could have been better. The range of sports facilities on offer was impressive and the swimming pool was much larger than average.
However, the hotel is situated under the flight path of aircraft approaching the nearby international airport and there is occasional noise day and night from the low flying planes. WiFi in the lobby and restaurant area is good but the signal does not extend to the room. Young pool attendants looked thoroughly bored with life at the pool side which did not look good. But worst of all.... you can`t get a filter coffee at the breakfast buffet......only instant coffee from small sachets. That is disgraceful.
Yes there are lots of things to enjoy at this hotel but with better trained staff and stronger management this could be a GREAT hotel.
