I was in Sri Lanka for work, with meetings on Thursday, Friday, and again on Monday and Tuesday. Over the weekend, I decided to leave Colombo and spend some time at Kumu Beach – and I’m so glad I did! Everything about this place was exceptional. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, creating a warm and relaxed atmosphere from the start. The rooms were beautiful – spacious, clean, and stylish, with great attention to detail. The food was a real standout. The chef prepared some of the best meals I’ve ever had – truly fine dining at Michelin-star level. Every dish was fresh, creative, and absolutely delicious. Service was outstanding in every aspect – thoughtful, professional, and always with a smile. This place is peaceful, luxurious, and the perfect escape from the city. Highly recommend Kumu Beach for anyone looking for a relaxing, high-end getaway in Sri Lanka. I’ll definitely be back!

I like this hotel very much. It is located on a very quiet beach. It is very suitable for families who like a quiet vacation. The hotel staff are very nice. The three meals a day are also very delicious. The room is comfortable and the seaside scenery is unbeatable.

Fascinating scenery. Every corner of the hotel is a beautiful landscape. The hotel's service staff is professional and kind. They will patiently answer your questions. Any problems during check-in will be solved immediately and you will be given feedback. The hotel has a private beach, which is clean and beautiful. The private swimming pool is clean and beautiful. It can be said to be the ceiling of travel.

The room was very good, the service was very good, and when they learned that we were Chinese, they specially asked the chef to make a Chinese-style braised dish! Every staff member was very enthusiastic

A very quiet private villa star hotel, with exclusive beach, very clean, and very enjoyable to walk around every day. But there is nothing around, only suitable for staying in the hotel! You can go to the beach at night to see many hermit crabs, and we also saw fireflies

第一次寫這麼多點評,衹談事實,看到的人自行考慮。 第一,被攜程評定為當地豪華酒店排名第一,本着對攜程信任,選了這家酒店都談不上的黑心民宿,攜程是有很大責任的。因為最好的房間跟描述嚴重不符合,存在極大的安全風險,衞生極度不合格。已經是最好的房間都如此,可想其他。 並且,入住當天發現問題,退其次要求換房,但被告知已經是最好的房間,沒有辦法,離店換酒店,這家酒店卻拒絕退房費,離開的時候不僅不幫忙拿行李保安還喊我們快點走。 一個招牌門頭甚至前台都沒有,在一個小巷子裏的“豪華酒店”實則是掛羊頭賣狗肉,大家不要被照片欺騙。 到處都是螞蟻,污漬。門窗不僅關不住風也封不住螞蟻蚊蟲和蛇。生銹的鑰匙門鎖也非常大的被盜風險。加上非常不友善的服務員和保安,奉勸國人可以慎重考慮。 比萬豪酒店貴不説對中國人態度有極度偏差。黑店一個。 此次事件,四晚房費是小事,攜程需要自查怎麼讓這樣的黑店成為豪華酒店排行榜第一的?第二,為了保護國人的尊嚴和安全強烈要求下架此酒店。

整體環境優美安靜,服務也很到位,就是海邊高檔民宿,會有小動物在屋外串,房間內也會爬進小壁虎,半夜看到嚇死,好在叫了客服服務來幫忙處理掉了。
