📍 wadana watta, Weligama

"Just beside a very cool beach. Budget Hotel. Have basic facilities. A neat and clean pool. Except drinking water, soaps and shampoo nothing is complementary in the room. It's a budget option and little overpriced for pool facing rooms with minimum facilities."

Hey Lala Talalla ★★★

📍 Karandagoda, Naotunna south, Matara

"This is a very cozy spot that makes you feel like you're living in solitude with nature, right among the rocks. Yes, there's a road nearby, but it absolutely doesn't disturb your rest and relaxation. Everything is clean and tidy, and there's a kitchen, which is very convenient for longer stays. The beach is just a few minutes' walk away. If you're looking for a peaceful place with a nice atmosphere and close proximity to nature – I wholeheartedly recommend it!"

"Excellent location of the hotel, everything is nearby. The ocean is across the road in 70 meters, there are many shops and cafes around for every taste and budget. For professional surfers there is an opportunity to surf, for lovers of a quiet holiday snorkeling on the turtle beach (there are always turtles and fish too) and beaches equipped with sun loungers. The manager of the hotel Kumara is very sensitive, attentive and caring, will tell you everything about the city, where and how best to get there, will answer any of your questions and will always help. The room has everything you need: safe, air conditioning, fan, and most importantly a mosquito repellent that will make your stay comfortable, the bed linen is clean, the rooms are spacious. Right next to the hotel there is a bus stop, you can go to the nearest settlements. The hotel is located not far from the police, so safety is guaranteed. I liked everything)"

The food was delicious, and they cooked us a traditional curry which was served on the beach to us. Quiet end of Dikewella beach which we loved. Location was great as we could walk easily into town along the beach. Thank you all."

We Are Surfers hotel

"We loved everything; any questions or problems we had were resolved, thanks to manager Timofey. The hotel is especially convenient for those traveling by moped, but tuk-tuks are also available. The best feature is the ocean view—it's practically its own private beach with a reef. We loved everything."

Weligama Bay Marriott Resort & Spa Hotels in Matara

Weligama Bay Marriott Resort & Spa

"We had a fantastic stay at the Marriott and extended for two days as it was too difficult to leave the place;) the service is over the top, great amenities with a great pool and even better beach. The in-house catering offers a really good sushi place but we appreciated the little food area next to the hotel as well. All in all the best spot to relax but also do great activities such as surfing and turtle swimming. The only negative thing if I have to name one is the kids club: it is really not a nice place (and smelled). No wonder there are hardly no children there and mine didn’t want to stay there either. But we came for the pool anyways …"

Cascara Resort Weligama Hotels in Matara

Cascara Resort Weligama

"As the first person to write a review, I'll say right away: I absolutely recommend staying here! This hotel is wonderful in every way, from the service to the secluded atmosphere. The breakfasts are excellent – even with just one main menu, there's still a good selection. I was surprised by how well-stocked the room was: I'm not talking about the mini-bar and drinking water, but the bathroom, which has absolutely everything you need, including perfumed toiletries. The conditioner, shampoo, body lotion, and scrub are all fantastic quality. The room is incredibly spacious, and the shower is wonderful. It matches the photos and description 100%. I want to thank the staff for their hospitality, the manager and owner for their smiles and morning chats, and the chef for the excellent cuisine and for helping with a special personal request. It's very close to the coastline, with restaurants, beach clubs, and shops nearby. It was my first time in Sri Lanka, and I have to say, in some ways, I liked this hotel even more than the island itself. Rating: 10/10. I will definitely be back!"

"An amazing week spent at Kima Surf Camp Weligama, where I improved my surfing skills thanks to all the great guides. The guides gave me individual feedback after each wave, so I immediately knew what I need to change in order to level up. On top of the great time spent surfing, we were able to enjoy a delicious breakfast or dinner, participate in different fun activities, relax by the pool and/or follow much needed yoga classes. Special thanks to Benja, Sam and Roma for the greatest experiences for the last session, also with the video analysis!"

Ayurvie Weligama - Ayurvedic Retreat - Thema Collection

"We stayed at Ayurvie Weligama for an Ayurveda retreat for the second time, and once again we are absolutely delighted. What we particularly appreciate is the very personal and individualized service. From the moment we arrived, we received an exceptionally warm welcome. The German-speaking doctor has an impressive amount of experience and outstanding expertise, which ensures that the retreat is truly beneficial and successful. We also loved the food—it is absolutely delicious. At the same time, you quickly develop a very friendly connection with the wonderful team in the kitchen. Of course, it is also extremely important to have excellent therapists. Here we were more than satisfied and looked forward every day to the approximately two hours of treatments. All in all, it was a fantastic Ayurveda retreat. We will definitely come back!"

Mandara Resort Mirissa Hotels in Matara

Mandara Resort Mirissa

"The hotel facilities are complete, but the indoor facilities are very simple. The sea view room is very beautiful, but the lake view room is not in the main area of ​​the hotel, so the quality is very poor. It should also be noted that the quality of seawater in this area varies greatly. This bay has a good view, but the seawater is not suitable for swimming."

"The B&B is right by the beach 🏖️ and it's super clean. The owner even gave us a big bottle of mineral water. The value for money is incredible; for less than 19 RMB, it's worth it anywhere in the world!"

AWON HOTEL MIRISSA ★★★★
"Our stay at Awon Hotel was really good! The rooms were decent and comfortable, and the hygiene and cleanliness were excellent. The best part is the location, it is very close to the beach and most of the main attractions in Mirissa. Most importantly, the owner was incredibly friendly and helpful with everything, especially when it came to arranging transport and other activities. I highly recommend choosing Awon Hotel if you are visiting Mirissa"

"The location is amazing. Friendly staff. Food is delicious. Extensive breakfast! The gym is bad. And they should wash their windows of the rooms more often. Fo to the local small beach next door. There is a cool bar with swings from a coconut tree. Would recommend."

Triple O Six ★★★★
"Of all the places I stayed in Sri Lanka, this hotel was my favourite, it felt incredibly luxurious from the moment we arrived. The scent throughout the hotel was beautifully intoxicating and the waiting area was stunning. We received such a warm welcome on arrival. It was a real bonus to have a lift to take us and our luggage to our floor, it meant we didn't have to rely on staff help at check out. We got a tour of our accommodation, our room was gorgeous, far more spacious and immaculate than we expected. We had a stunning balcony view towards the beach and could even see Coconut Tree Hill, we chose this location for its proximity to this beauty spot. The bathroom was separate to the toilet and absolutely huge, the waterfall shower was pure heaven and I especially appreciated the HOT water. Everything we needed was provided in the room, along with lots of thoughtful extra amenities that really elevated our stay. We were able to walk to Coconut Tree Hill for sunset and head out for dinner afterwards, which made the location perfect for us. The beach is a little further away, but still accessible. I couldn’t wait to get into bed and it did not disappoint, it was incredibly comfortable and I slept so well. The buffet breakfast is set in its own charming area, with a lovely little bridge connecting the two sides. The selection was great and had everything you would want for a hearty start to the day. We didn’t get the chance to use the pool, it is located near reception and slightly shaded by trees. This was the only small downside for us as it felt like it lacked a bit of privacy, however it would not stop us from staying here again, the hotel is far too good to miss, and with the beach nearby, the pool is hardly needed. At Triple O Six you get what you pay for!!"

Outpost Weligama Beachfront ★★★
"The Outpost is nicely located on the beach, the staff is nice, the beachside rooms are nice but not cheap. The standard rooms are more like hostel rooms. Unfortunately, the building is very noisy and the air conditioning was either on full blast or not working at all, which made the night miserable. We then changed hotels and are still waiting for our money today, despite the offer of a refund. It's obviously all about the money and not about giving the guest a good experience. If someone likes to sleep with earplugs, then I can recommend the Outpost with reservations."
