We had a delightful stay at this resort. The location is simply perfect, being just steps from the beach, and the atmosphere is incredibly relaxing. The staff were exceptionally helpful and attentive, ensuring we had everything we needed. However, the room cleanliness could have been improved, as we did notice a few issues upon arrival, and there was some noise from the main road. Overall, it was a memorable experience with great dining options and amazing beach access.

I absolutely loved my stay at Weligama Bay Resort! The villas are spacious and comfortable with stunning views, and the location right on the beach is just perfect. The pool and restaurant are great, and the breakfast offers a wide selection. While my experience was mostly fantastic, I did have a bit of an issue when I lost my key, which was quite frustrating and didn't feel very accommodating. Overall, it's definitely a place I would recommend for a relaxing getaway.

My stay at Weligama Bay Resort was absolutely delightful. The staff provided exceptional service, making our experience feel truly special. The location on the beach was perfect for surfing and relaxation. While the room was spacious with a beautiful view, we did have some difficulty sleeping due to noise from local temples. Overall, this place offers great amenities and a lovely atmosphere, but keep the noise in mind if you're a light sleeper.
