Castle Bay Resort

Castle Bay Resort has become my second home in Sri Lanka. The family that owns it took care of me as if I was their daughter. They are amazing people! The hotel itself is the best place you can find for this price. The rooms are nice, clean and comfortable with spacious common balconies. Breakfast is in big portions. Located in a quiet street close to the beach. I absolutely recommend!

After traveling a lot i can honestly say this is the best stay ive had in a very very long time.Its located very close to Weligama, you can get to Weligama beach with a scooter in 3 min, which you can also rent at the property.The hosts are husband and wife and they really made me feel like i was a part of the family, Kanta and Kanti are absolutely amazing.They are at your service for anything you need at any time There is also one beach that is a 2 min walk from the property but i forgot the name of it.Everything is exceptionality clean as they clean every day, you can also request room cleaning.Beds are amazing and very comfortable.Kantis food is unmatched, breakfast is amazing as well as all the things on the menu.There is also a large rooftop with a partial ocean view which is an amazing place to sit and relax for some time. On the rooftop there is also a kitchen for guests to use which is fully equipped with everything you need from the fridge to the cooking.Overall, best place ive stayed in a very long time, highly recommend and i will definitely be coming back here very soon!

We had a wonderful stay at this amazing accommodation in Sri Lanka! From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by the incredibly friendly hosts, who made us feel like part of their family. Their hospitality is truly outstanding and made our stay unforgettable.A special highlight was the delicious and plentiful breakfast, lovingly prepared every morning.The accommodation itself is very clean, cozy, and ideally located for exploring the area. The only small point for improvement would be the Wi-Fi, which could be expanded.Overall, we highly recommend this place and would love to come back. A huge thank you to the hosts and their wonderful family!

Everything is nice. A scooter or tuktuk is recommended for flexibility.

Fantastic value for money. We stayed in the Villa which is across the road from the main house. Good for a little bit more privacy. It’s basic but has everything you need. The owner went above and beyond to make us feel welcome - including letting us check in early after a long journey to Sri Lanka, Cooking us an evening meal, organising transport, running us about in his Tuk Tuk. We would stay here again when back in Weligama.The Villa also has several Tortoises that wander around the garden.

It’s a small trip to the surf beach but 3mins in a Tuk Tuk for 300 or so rupees

Guys from frontdesk was very kind.

Not functional electricity for a while, dangerous sockets.

Very nice place to stay. The owner and his family were very friendly and helpful people. Amazing breakfast. The Location is a little far from the beach (good Tuktuk distance) but perfect if you want to go diving next door.

Bad

We had no access to get in, because when we arrived no one was there and the gate was closed. We had no opportunity to get in. Also the phone was off. We had to search for other place at midnight.

Very Clean , nice and comfortable

Very beautiful and original style

The host was very attentive and kind.His wife made a delicious dinner .Breakfast was good

From the moment we arrived, the hosts made us feel so welcome. They really and truly went above and beyond throughout the duration of our stay. It is a very relaxing atmosphere at this resort. The breakfasts were so delicious and you will have wonderful chats, jokes, and hugs with the hosts. It is them who made our stay a special one. We did our open water PADI cert while staying here and the diving center is literally right beside this resort which was so convenient! So if you are interested in diving, Castle Bay Resort is the place for you stay. Not only that, but you are only a 15 min walk into the main town and about 10 min walk to jungle beach. We liked being a little bit out of town as we enjoy peace and quiet. We cannot recommend this place enough! Oh and you will get the best veggie dhal and coconut roti here!?

My stay at this establishment surpassed all expectations. The facilities were really nice, and, above all, the warm hospitality and incredible helpfulness of the owners stood out. They went above and beyond to ensure that every aspect of my stay was perfect. I highly recommend this place to travelers of all types. As someone who was working remotely during my stay, I had no problems as the wifi was superb. Thank you for a fantastic experience, and I can't wait to return.

We rented 2 rooms in the villa and had the whole house just for us. The owner is helpful and nice.

The location is 2,5 km from the beach. We didn't know the city, so booked randomly. If you are coming to Weligama for surfing, it's not very convinient to take transport every time. Also small choice of restaurants around.

I was travelling by my self and it was wonderful how welcoming the owners were. Only for the one night, they explained a lot to me and even offered to drop me in town. The room is nice and the bed perfectly comfy.

The hosts were exceptional. Well looked after by a caring family who could not do enough to ensure a comfortable stay. Location with close proximity to fisherman’s bay and jungle beach. Feels very safe:

The owners are very friendly and accommodating and will respond to requests quickly

Internet connection is limited

I planned to stay there for 4 days, but in the end I stayed there for couple of weeks! This place is comfortable and clean, with super friendly local family. They made me feel like home and treated me like their own daughter! I had the chance to join their dinner and tried their homemade local rice and curry. That’s delicious as well as the breakfast. The room was clean and cozy. Big shower place with hot water which is very important to me.It is not super far from the city centre(10mins by bike, few mins by motorbike/ tuk tuk) but if u wanna stay in a quiet place, that’s your choice. Motorbike and bike are available to rent in this place. U can go surfing or swimming with sea turtles on Weligama beach, it’s just few minutes walk. Or u can go a little further to jungle beach(~15 minute walk) which is bigger, there are some nice bars and restaurants.Oh don’t forget to play with their 2 adorable dogs, named Doggy and Timmy. They are so cuttteeeee!

Breakfast was good and pretty filling. Rooms were very clean and quiet (had a mosquito net too). The owner of the place was very nice and accommodative. Overall, it was good!!

Rooms were not ready when we came and we had to wait for like 45 minutes before checking in. Close to Jungle beach weligama but a bit far from the main weligama beach.

Located out of the Weligama center, Castle Bay is a good place if you want to spend time at Jungle beach. The room was well-equipped, clean and spacious enough. The hosts could organize everything you want - local trips as well as airport transfer (just 2,5 hours to Colombo airport).

the room was really nice, the shower is warm and especially the staff is so kind! felt like home

it was perfectly clean and all people, who works there, it was so nice and friendly. very beautiful area for breakfast and amazing Terrace on the top
