Shangri-La Hambantota

Travelled with my family, including parents and four year old daughter. Check-in service was excellent. I really appreciated their extra effort to find two rooms next to each other. My daughter loved the pool, water slides and separate kids buffet. The in resort prices are very, very high. I would only come again or recommend to family and friends if they are on a generously priced full-board package.

This by far is the best resort in Sri Lanka, we just spent 5 days with 2 small children and enjoyed every minute of it. From the food, to the activities, kids centre to the Spa everything was amazing. This our second time at the resort and once again Jeevon from check in staff was amazing and is now a member of our family. He helped us with everything and was always calling and checking on what we required. There really is not enough ways i can express our gratitude to every one there. They have an amazing property with so much todo that you could literally spent a week and never leave. Yalla national park is near and it is the best Safari we had ever been on. We are able to see all the animals in their natural environment. Don't miss out on a Golf cart tour of the property as you will be able to see many animals.

The hotel is a lovely hotel but what really makes it great are the staff. Friendly and accommodating only starts to describe them. The food was varied and of good quality, especially the Indian offerings. There is also plenty to do for both the children and the adults. Evening entertainment was limited but this did not detract from what was a very relaxing and enjoyable holiday.

A wonderful place to enjoy a family holiday. Landscape and sceneries are beautiful. Well maintained surroundings. Facilities are excellent. Wonderful opportunities for kids and well looked after them by coaches. Very friendly and helpful staff. Very good room service. Admire Sri Lankan Hospitality. We had a great time and appreciate entire hotel staffs' kind approach towards their customers. Special thank goes to Miss. Monika at reception desk who has the talent and ability to please customers very well.

Wonderful hotel, with extremely helpful staff and beautiful rooms. We came with our two young kids (3 and 6) and it was perfect for them : a shallow pool with two slides and a great kids club where they could and wanted to hang out most of the time. When we were there, the sea was rough and swimming was forbidden but the pools make up for it. The main buffet restaurant was good, but the quality and variety of the food could be improved especially considering the price (30$/adult).
