An introduction to Royal Palms Beach Resort

When it comes to the X factor, the Royal Palms Beach Resort has got it in spades. Set right on Kalutara beach, among palm trees and tropical gardens, its beach-side location is a real winner. Add a lagoon-shaped pool, complete with water jets and bubble baths, that curves its way around and under the hotel and the scene is set.

Step inside the grand 5 star hotel and you'll be swept away by the beauty of it all. Sumptuous day beds are surrounded by ornate brass lights, over-sized vases and exotic purple flowers. Impressive statues of elephants, horses and other striking figures punctuate the lobby and restaurants. All in all, it's a rather palatial place.

And it doesn't stop there. Bedrooms are pure decadence. Colonial-style interiors are light and airy with polished wood floors. Beds of sumptuous cream linen, piled high with scatter cushions, sit beneath silky canopies. And dark wood accents of carved mirrors and objets d'art add the finishing touches.

The Royal Palms' three restaurants serve up a whole host of culinary delights. Sri Lankan, Oriental and international cuisine are all on offer and served up in gorgeous surroundings. The Orient restaurant is all deep-ochre walls, wicker screens and palms. Meanwhile, the Sri Lankan eatery is a dusky blue-and-white with elaborate sculptures and brass wall plates.

When you're ready to explore, catch the nearby train to Colombo - it'll take around an hour and will only set you back about twenty pence. Or turn to the friendly taxi service that's based at the hotel and head off on day trips in their air-conditioned minibus.
