Wellé Wadiya Beach Villa

This place was a great start to our honeymoon ! The service and staff were very welcoming. They went out of their way to get us extra things to make our stay special & the owner also turned up for the weekend and shouted us an amazing fresh fish dinner ! Donald (the manager ) and his crew were awesome . Highly recommended Location was amazing to kick back and Relax and get used to Sri Lanka ! The rooms were clean spacious and comfortable Cheers from Pete & Omy

Checked in and checked out 2 hours later; would have been quicker but we had to find an alternative. Room was very very smelly coming from the bathroom. Safe broken. Patio doors to balcony broken. We thought we’d give the food a try before making a final decision not to stay here. It was almost inedible. The table we sat at was near the pool which was murky looking and uninviting. Whole pool area was dirty, a nasty looking tissue on the ground and sticky table tops. Just the feel of the place was all a bit sleazy. A smell of ***** didn’t add to the appeal for us! To be fair we are probably not typical of this hotel’s usual customers, being in our sixties and not being there for the kite surfing.

1. We arrived at 4am and all the staff were awake to greet us! 5 stars 2. Breakfast - at your own timing. Excellent local and international breakfast. For an authentic experience try the local food. Super amazing and delicious. Vidusha, the resident chef is very talented. 3. Rooms. Comfortable and air conditioned with ceiling fan. Firm beds and fluffy pillows. Clean sheets and soft towels. Beach towels available on request. Some rust stains on door hinges, etc but nothing dramatic. No TV - but I consider this a plus point! (I understand that the rooms are in the process of refurbishment.) 4. Beach front. Absolute beach front. You can hear the waves and winds. Clean white beach, shallow gradient with on large shore breaks at times. It is public so casual beach combers, locals, tame dogs, birds, crabs. And Donkeys! 5. Pool. Clean and blue with white deck chairs and sitting areas for functions. 6. The staff is superb. Anthony, the manager is so accommodating, attentive and pre-emptive. He always made sure we had enough water, or towels, or food. Jiwan (aka G-One) also saw to our needs. Always smiling and conscientious. On my last day there he plucked a coconut and made me a coconut drink (FOC). The cleaners and other staff were always deferential and kindly to all guests. 7. We windsurfed off the beach, and even with the extra gear and different demands, we were never found wanting. All our needs were taken care of; from an additional wash point, to masking tape; extra storage area and manpower to move furniture. 8. As of this writing, we are planning another trip. Enough said. 9. Cheers and Blessings to the hotel owners and splendid staff.

Great hotel on the beach 6 rooms nice service Friendly staff Recomend for quiet beach chill holiday Big air conditiond rooms with private bath room Good breakfast Sri lankan or western tea coffe and water all day long

It was really good trip in Kalpitiya, the personal was really good and respectful, the hotel in really good, the room have a balcony and you have a superb view of the beach, we’ll go next time. They can book a boat for you to see dolphins. Ask anything and they will try to satisfy you!!!

We decided to go here because they seemed to have a lot of positive reviews. But unfortunately in our opinion, the hotel failed to meet even the most basic of expectations. The food was terrible and extremely overpriced. There were no sunbeds or even chairs at the beach to sit at. Even the cut fruits we requested after lunch were unripe. Rooms were alright, although the bed sheet and the pillowcases had stains on them. The only place to hang out wet clothes or towels was a rusty wall mount rack in the toilet that ended up staining our clothes. We could've managed with the quality of service, cleanliness and facilities had there been decent food. Extremely disappointed at the quality and the exorbitant price for the food. Wouldn't really recommend this place to anyone.

We stayed as a group of 4 for 3 nights in February and had an enjoyable stay. Welle Wadiya Beach Hotel is clean and comfortable on a beautiful stretch of beach. We loved swimming in the warm sea, the food was great and most of all, Luke was most helpful. With a few tweaks such as more sun beds, this will become a gem

We stayed for two nights and Mr Shakthi who managed the resort went above and beyond to accommodate us. The hotel is right on the beach and the rooms and amenities are well worth the price. The beach is wonderful and you can request kurumba off the trees right there on the property.
