The food (a truly delectable brunch with locally sourced ingredients), the location (peaceful, surrounded by nature and greenery), the architecture (tasteful Béton brut with Tropical Modernism) and Anne’s hospitality!

Everything went well beyond my expectation. Staff were immensely helpful. I was mesmerized with the architecture, cleanliness and the comfort. Breakfast was delicious, healthy and neatly spread. Lunch and dinner were also wonderfully served. Ice creams were so nice! It was a wonderful experience .

Location is a 10/10, specially for families, a little tucked away from the hassle of main Hikkaduwa beach. But we need to highlight the team. The level of committed service was incredible. The team had unmatchable attention to detail making our children feel safe and welcome. As an example, we spent two nights during Christmas season and the team prepared a special dinner along with many treats and small gifts for our children. As they realized we had a little girl that loved her time in the pool, they went out to buy a nice flamingo-shaped buoy for her. Rooms have good areas and are furnished in a minimal beach-style done with good taste.

Outstanding! This beautiful resort is sandwiched between two spectacular (and mostly empty) beaches. If you're looking for a peaceful vibe (no kids allowed and no annoying music at the pool), excellent food, outstanding cocktails, excellent service, and amazing sunsets...then this place is for you. We were very warmly welcomed upon arrival and were looked after with meticulous care for the rest of our stay (thank you very much, Sanath!). The room was perfect and the bed (including linens and pillows) was very comfortable. Thank you also to the very kind and generous Chef Thushara and his team for the wonderful Sri Lankan cooking class (delicious chicken curry). Another highlight of our stay was having our sundowners on a hidden patio perched on the rocks and overlooking the surf. The drinks and the view were spectacular! While you're there, also try the spa. Wonderful massages. Overall, we couldn't have asked for a better stay and we look forward to coming back. Thank you, Sandaru, for waking up so early to assist us with our checkout and bid us farewell.

We had an amazing stay in the Grand Suite. The boutique hotel is a little hidden beauty. We loved staying there. The people, the room, the tranquiity and the breakfast was amazing. Highly recommend a few days here in the Grand Suite. Great value for money.

The staff is absolutely incredible, always available and caring with a smile. The location of the premise is stunning, right on the ocean with direct access to a beautiful beach, while remaining private. Breakfast and food in general is 5 stars. The room is very big and clean. The bed is the most comfortable I've tried in a hotel. We had a massage in the hotel and it is recommended. Internet is was extraordinarily fast and reliable for remote workers. We just left Mosvold and we already want to return!

This remains one of the most loveable hotels in Sri lanka. Bentota is not quite as trendy as it was because of the motoway south - but that means boutique hotels in south Bentota such as this one are often excellent value.

We had a pool room and it didn’t disappoint. The pool was bigger than expected with gorgeous views - worth the extra money. The whole room was nicely finished and really comfortable, with lots of space. Location is good - It’s around 800 LKR to get into Unawatuna (about 5 minutes max) and 1000 LKR to get into Galle (15 minutes max). The staff were so lovely too, really made the trip enjoyable - for $25 you can also get an hour long full body massage in your room, a really nice touch.
