Beach resort

Taj Bentota Resort & Spa

Bentota · Sri Lanka

A Taj beach resort on a headland above Bentota beach, managed by the Indian Hotels Company (IHCL); formerly Vivanta by Taj Bentota.

Taj Bentota Resort & Spa, the former Vivanta by Taj, sits on a headland above Bentota beach, with gardens, pools and the Taj group’s Jiva spa. Who it suits: couples and families who want a full-service resort on one of the west coast’s best beaches. Things to know: the train line runs between some west-coast hotels and the sand, so ask about beach access when you book.
