Great hotel if you're planning to spend time at the beach and eat within the hotel. There's a few local restaurants we tried and they're well worth a visit. The food at the hotel was excellent and the team were always happy to accommodate requests It's a about 2.5 hrs from the international airport. Shout out to Anne and Dimuthu from the hospitality team in the restaurant who would always come by and check in with us.

A 5 star hotel anywhere in the world
Only a quick 1-night stay, with late arrival and early departure- so limited opportunity to use the facilities. From checking in to checking out, our own experiences were fully positive, The staff are professional, the room was excellent and the breakfast of high quality

Luxurious Oasis with Breathtaking Views
I recently spent 3 days at the Weligama Bay Marriott Resort during a work trip to Matara, and I'm thoroughly impressed. This resort is a true gem overlooking the stunning Weligama Bay. From the moment you enter, you're greeted by the soothing sound of waves and exceptional service. The rooms are excellently appointed with perfectly functioning air-conditioning - a true comfort in Sri Lanka's climate. The breakfast is a highlight, offering an impressive array of options from Sri Lanka, India, China, and the West. There's an abundance of fresh fruits, breads, and yogurt to satisfy every palate. While the resort is somewhat isolated, it's a self-contained paradise. Be aware that prices for rooms, restaurants, and drinks are comparable to US rates, which is higher than the local average. However, the quality of the experience fully justifies the cost. From the luxurious rooms to the impeccable service, everything about this resort exudes excellence. If you're looking for a high-end getaway in southern Sri Lanka, the Weligama Bay Marriott Resort delivers an unforgettable experience. Highly recommended for those seeking a luxurious escape.
