The Palms - Beruwala

 

The Palms Hotel in Beruwala, Sri Lanka, is a beachfront resort known for its family-friendly atmosphere and recent renovations. It’s part of the Colombo Fort Hotels Group and a sister hotel to The Sigiriya Village and Club Palm Bay. Originally known as Wornel's Reef before the 2004 tsunami, it was later acquired and rebranded as The Palms. The hotel emphasizes Sri Lankan hospitality and has a commitment to sustainability, including environmental preservation and community support. 

The Palms Hotel is managed by Beruwala Resorts Plc, a subsidiary of Colombo Fort Hotels Ltd, according to EMIS Next, and the Palms underwent renovations in 2012, giving it a contemporary and stylish ambiance, according to Agoda.com. 

The hotel offers a range of amenities including a swimming pool, spacious rooms, and an open-air restaurant. The hotel’s entrance is some 600m down a lane off the Galle Road close to the 57km post.
