Visited Sri Lanka for the first time. Based on all reviews I read on Trip Advisor and keeping our budget in mind, I chose to book Panchi Villa. But before I give my views on Panchi Villa, I would like to mention about Bentota. Being Indians, me and my husband did not find Bentota much different from Kerala. However, the... More

When the last tsunami alert happened the active staff informed us about it as it happens. When we asked that we thought that the only thing to do is run for our lives. But fortunately we were in tsunami safe area. So we didn’t want to do any special thing to be safe. It was wonderful. The restaurant was very... More

We were booked to stay at the Panchi Villa for 6 nights however ended up checking out after just 3. The hotel itself was nice, the pool was great and the staff were generally friendly and helpful. However the manager did not make us feel comfortable at all and was constantly hounding us for money, claiming the card machine was... More

What a gem of a hotel! The staff were unbelievably friendly from the moment we arrived, and were really helpful when arranging trips. Amazing, clean, beautiful pool, and we even had coconuts delivered to us with a straw in the pool! The breakfast is lovely, on the balcony overlooking the pool and tropical surrounds. Fresh fruit and smoothies every day.... More

A lovely place with clean airy rooms with a great balcony overlooking the pool and the garden. Really relaxed here and can highly recommend it. It is across the road from the beech but the garden setting and pool makes up for it. Like just about everywhere else in Sri Lanka, they are building an Ayurvedic center which was just... More

We stayed here for two nights with our two year old son and can really recommend this place!! The hotel is small but very clean. Food is not the best but very attentive staff. It's location is a bit off the main area however, it is only a short tuk tuk ride to the Hotel Wunderbar where you can use... More

As other reviews say, the service is pretty unfriendly. Location is about a 20 minute walk down the very long beach from Wunderbar, which is a good place for a drink and has a turtle hatchery (and great service). You do have a short 2 min walk to the beach but it isn't a problem and re previous comments on... More

We have just returned from 5 nights staying in the Panchi Villa. We stay in one of the two super luxury rooms and had a really relaxing holiday. The rooms are comfortable and clean, sheets and towels were changed every day. The four poster bed was so comfortable we slept so well during our stay. We went half board and... More

The hotel territory is very clean, taken care of, beautiful nature in a quite and cozy place. The beach is closely located, as well as... More
