I had an unforgettable stay at the resort, making it an ideal getaway for families looking for both relaxation and fun. The rooms were immaculate and offered stunning views, while the service was outstanding, particularly from the staff who went above and beyond to ensure our comfort. The location was perfect, nestled between a beautiful beach and lagoon, with plenty of activities for the kids. Although the dining options were excellent, we did wish for a bit more variety in breakfast. Overall, it was a fantastic experience and great value for money.

We had a fabulous holiday at Anantara Kalutara, enjoying superb food and helpful staff throughout our stay. The boat rides and two beautiful swimming pools were fantastic. However, the overall location, while picturesque, could have a bit more to offer in terms of local attractions. The children's play area was a great bonus for our family vacation.

Staying at this resort was an absolute delight! The staff was incredibly welcoming, making me feel like part of the family from the moment I arrived. The atmosphere was serene, perfect for unwinding after a busy trip around Sri Lanka. The location provided breathtaking views of the lagoon and the beach. Although the dining was on the pricier side compared to other places, the quality of food made it worth it. The only drawback was that the dining options could feel a bit limited, especially given the high prices.

I had a mixed experience at this resort. The hotel itself is beautiful and very clean, but the management was lacking, which affected my overall stay. The dining options were confusing and didn't live up to expectations, even though the facilities were wonderful. I wouldn't revisit this hotel, but I loved Sri Lanka and would definitely return to the country.
