Bentota Beach Stay
Bentota Beach Stay
An idyllic beach escape
A relaxing seven night beach stay in Bentota, Sri Lanka. An ideal opportunity to de-stress and escape the rigours of life in the UK. You can spend your time at the hotel and the beach, or exploring the area, the choice is yours. Maybe visit a turtle sanctuary, try out some water sports, or perhaps go on a mangrove safari adventure. There are two hotel options available, both with excellent facilities, which will probably be the most difficult decision you have to make.
Note: For stays between 1st August 2019 and 31st January 2020, the Sri Lankan government has relaxed the visa requirements, meaning you can travel there VISA-FREE!
