Heritance Negombo (now Sentido Heritance Negombo) is a 139-room beachfront resort in Negombo, about 13 kilometres from Colombo's international airport. Formerly the Browns Beach Hotel, it stands on Lewis Place and faces the Indian Ocean across a wide lawn and a tropical pool, and every room has an ocean view, which makes it one of the most convenient beach stays for a first or last night in Sri Lanka.
All rooms face the ocean and have air conditioning, a rain shower, a mini refrigerator, a safe, satellite TV, tea and coffee making facilities, bathrobes and complimentary Wi-Fi. Baby cots can be provided on request, for a charge. The names below are the ones you will see in the booking form, and they match the hotel's own categories.
Every category is booked for up to two adults, with up to two children. If you are travelling as three adults, book two rooms.
Bluetan is the main restaurant, and See Lounge is the bar for a drink as the sun goes down over the sea. Across the road, the Banyan brings together three more places: Iguana Cantina for Mexican street food, the Swiss Bakery for pastries and baked goods, and Rouge, a wine bar and lounge.
The hotel's tropical pool sits between the lawns and the beach, and the Coco Spa offers massages and other treatments. Negombo Beach runs right in front of the hotel.
The centre of Negombo is about 3 kilometres away, with the fish market and the Dutch Fort by the lagoon mouth, St Mary's Church, and the Dutch canal that runs south towards Colombo. Boat trips explore the Negombo Lagoon and the birdlife of the Muthurajawela Wetlands, which the hotel lists among its experiences.
Yes. Kattuwa station on the Puttalam line is about 900 metres from the hotel, and the main Negombo station is in the town centre. Both are a short tuk-tuk ride away with luggage.
The hotel is about 13 kilometres from Bandaranaike International Airport, so it is an easy first stop after a long flight or a last night before going home. The simplest way to arrive is a private transfer from Colombo airport to Heritance Negombo, which meets you at arrivals and takes you to the door.
It suits couples and families who want a full-service beach resort close to the airport, whether for a night or two at the start or end of a trip or a longer, easy-going beach stay. For more choice see our places to stay in Negombo, or the other Heritance hotels around the island.
