Club Hotel Dolphin ★★★★★
"We had a wonderful day outing with our family at this beautiful hotel. The atmosphere was lovely, the food was delicious, and the staff were friendly and welcoming. The pool and surroundings were perfect for relaxing and enjoying quality time together. Thank you for making our day so special! ❤️ Highly recommended for a fun and relaxing family day out! 🌞🏊♀️✨"
Taru Villas Villu - Wilpattu ★★★★★
"We celebrated my partner’s 30th birthday here, and it honestly felt magical from the moment we arrived. The whole team made us feel so cared for, both Gayathri and Praneed, our naturalists / hosts, were just incredible. During our safari, Gayathri helped us spot not one, but four leopards at Wilpattu National Park (two walked right towards us!), even though it was monsoon season. The food was amazing throughout our stay. From fresh seafood BBQ one night, a lovely picnic by the mangroves, and the bartender mixed some of the best cocktails we had in Sri Lanka. Everything felt relaxed but thoughtful, like they really wanted us to enjoy ourselves. What stood out most was how the team’s hospitality extended to the surroundings, including the natural elements and wildlife. Elephants sometimes visit the property, and everyone treats them gently. Even the local community dogs are cared for, which says a lot about the heart and soul behind this place. Our villa was stunning, everything we could ask for and more! Included as bedside reading was Bawa literature on the local architect and pioneer, amidst a private, peaceful, and lush surrounding. The plunge pool at the villa was a dream after long days of exploring. Because the property only has 7 villas, it never felt crowded or commercial. From a sunset picnic in the mangroves to the warm smiles of all members of the team — including our captain of our voyage who was a fisherman from the neighboring village — it all felt so personal. Taru Villas Wilpattu truly made this trip one we’ll never forget! P.S. thank you to Gayathri for the incredible photographs and spotting, we will treasure the memories you helped create and capture forever!"
Club Palm Bay ★★★★★
"We had a wonderful and memorable stay at the hotel . From the moment we arrived the staff were welcoming and professional. The room was very clean, comfortable and well maintained .while the beautiful surroundings created a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere. Definitely we come back again. Thank all give support Us .😍"
Suriya Resort ★★★★★
"We stayed in a suite at the hotel for 10 days and couldn’t have asked for more from the holiday. The suites are large. Clean and well maintained, and we had an amazing view of the sea and sunset from the balcony. The staff were friendly, chatty and very accommodating. They did everything they could to make our stay memorable. The food was fantastic. The pool is clean, yes there are crows, dogs and a cat, but the pool and surrounding areas are kept very clean, they didn’t bother us at all. There is lovely birdsong throughout the day and the three dogs weren’t interested in people, they just sat in the shade and roamed around a bit, in fact they were quite sweet. The general manger was readily available and the spa was luxurious (Balinese massage…amazing!) too. Sri Lanka is beautiful and the people are exceptional. ❤️"
Wattura Resort & Spa ★★★★★
"We received an excellent service by Sewni and she really made our experience so much better! We hope to come again soon!"
Bar Reef Resort ★★★★
"We had two wonderful nights at Bar Reef Resort. The beach cabanas were truly amazing, and the salt water infinity pool was lovely for a morning swim. Plus, it was long enough for some swimming exercises. The authentic Sri Lankan rice and curry was amazing. The whole team was incredibly kind and attentive. Sampath, in particular, made the experience truly splendid. He was funny, keen to approve his German, and we practiced a little :) He was also very friendly, kind and attentive. We are definitely planning to return for our next holiday in Sri Lanka."
Melheim Beach Kalpitiya ★★★★
"Room is comfortable and the surrounding area is very nice and spacious especially the garden ideal for kids. Food is good ,staff is friendly but number of staff in the restaurant is not enough so it happened to wait for the food to be served.😌"
Anantaya Resort & Spa Chilaw ★★★★★
"Was not happy with the cleanliness of this hotel. I've added pictures for context. The bathroom had horrible thick mold around the sink. Behind the bedhead the partition screen was packed with dust and cobwebs. The phone was disgustingly dirty as well. The cradle of the phone actually had dirt particles heaped in there. The couches were stained, the blinds in the bathroom didn't work. The entire place was pretty worn which was surprising since it apparently opened in 2014. I informed the reception staff that the room needed cleaning and showed her pictures but she just looked at me blankly. So I said we'd be out all day if she could please have someone clean. That was 0730 am when we got back at four only the bed had been made up none of the dirt cleaned. I called and informed the staff but they didn't really seem bothered. So I said I'd be putting in a review, later that night the the house keeping wanted to come into the room be shown the dirt and clean! At 9 pm at night. I refused. 🙄. The pool is reasonably nice but they really need the pool as the beach has extremely strong surf and has red flags up with good reason. Also there is a lot of litter washed up on the beach which is unsightly."
Dolphin Beach Resort - Dolphins, Kitesurfing & Wildlife ★★★★
"Amazing air conditioned room that felt like a tent. Fabulous private outdoor shower and the staff were so nice. Food was wonderful and it was the perfect place to recover after a hot day on the road from Colombo"

Ocean View Beach Resort - Kalpitiya
"Super nice stay at the hotel. Manager and staff are super kind and helpful. Excellent cabanas almost in the beach."
Sanmali Beach Hotel
"I honestly can’t fault this place. Sanmali Hotel is the definition of five-star service — the staff genuinely care about their guests and always go out of their way to make sure you’re happy and comfortable. Every request, big or small, is met with a smile and sorted straight away. The hotel itself is spotless, peaceful, and beautifully kept. You can really tell they put their customers first in everything they do. I’ve stayed at plenty of places before, but this one stands out by miles. 10/10 – Highly recommend!"
Villa Sethawadi Hotel & Kitesurf Centre
"Situated on Kalpitiya lagoon. Water pressure insufficient in the showers. Beautiful interiors and good location. Hats off to the chef…excellent biriyani and seafood platters. Don’t forget to enjoy a drink in the lagoon hut situated in the lagoon…"
Kitelantis Hotel and Kite Resort
"Second time I went to SriLanka and second time to Kitelantis. I started my holiday overthere for 5 days to get rid of the jetlag. Then I made a trip trough the country...10 different hotels...and ended back in Kitelantis for 3 days. And this hotel is fareout the best. Relax, sober with confort and beautiful. And ofcourse the manager Jesse with his team."
Kite Paradise Resort-Kalpitiya
"I liked very much! Exellent traditional food! Exellent massages! The owner is very nice, helpful and honest man. I felt care of him and his staff every time,everyone is very polite there. The owner arrainges different nice tours by boat, by Tuk Tuk, also Mangrove tour and Wilpattu National park safari, dolphine watch and sunset safari is available. I suggest! Also important, i noticed - the high standarts of clenness are in Kite Paradise Resort."
Adiques's Resorts
"Lovely seafront property directly on the beach with clear and clean pool. Best of all the friendly staff. We had the second flood king suite, very nice (we were three). The foot was excellent, all freshly made. The breakfast had both something Sri Lankan and something continental (like omelet) - and always a medley of fresh fruit and a different fresh fruit juice every day. One evening we had fish curry for dinner - so much food and so tasty. The place is very peaceful (nothing much around) so if you’re looking for cafes and shops in walking distance, it is not for you. Highly recommended!"
Guesthouse Panorama
"Great view and beach but most and foremost the friendly environment. It's a family run business and they really treat you as family going beyond the norm to make your stay comfortable. From calling tuk tuk drivers at the most reasonable prices in Sri Lanka to getting us snorkeling equipment, cooking nice food and advising where to go and what to do, they did it all. I would recommend staying here as I will return for certain. The rooms are spacious, comfortable and clean."
Soluna Beach Resort
"We had a wonderful stay at Soluna Beach and can’t recommend it highly enough. We stayed in one of the villas, which was spotless, comfortable, and beautifully maintained. The entire property is very clean and well cared for. A special thank you to Suranga and Rodney, who were absolutely fantastic throughout our stay. They were warm, helpful, and incredibly accommodating. Nothing was too much trouble, and they truly made our experience extra special. The location is perfect, right on the beach and within easy walking distance of several excellent seafood restaurants. Waking up to the sound of the sea and having breakfast while looking out over the ocean was a highlight of the morning. The breakfast itself was great, with a choice of English or traditional Sri Lankan options, both delicious. We’re already looking forward to coming back. A truly relaxing and memorable stay! 🌊"
