Beach Hotels in Kananke

Our stay at Malabar Hotel was absolutely wonderful! From the peaceful atmosphere to the exceptional food and thoughtful service, everything made our experience truly memorable. One of the little details we really appreciated was the complimentary car covers, which gave us peace of mind knowing our cars were protected from potential damage. The hotel itself is incredibly peaceful, making it the perfect place to relax and unwind. The food deserves a special mention because it was absolutely amazing, especially the vegetarian options! There was so much to try that we actually had to stay for two nights just to work our way through the menu. Every meal was a delight, and the variety and quality of the vegetarian dishes were truly impressive. Breakfast was another highlight. I would highly recommend trying the floating breakfast for a special experience, and the banana bread is genuinely the best I have ever had! It is an absolute must-try. We were also impressed by the clear communication among the staff and the smooth handovers between team members. Everyone seemed well-informed and coordinated, which made the entire stay feel seamless and welcoming. Overall, Malabar Hotel is a wonderful place with a peaceful ambience, incredible food, thoughtful touches, and a team that genuinely makes the experience special. We left with lovely memories and would happily return.

The jungle surroundings are absolutely stunning, with beautiful views and a great pool area. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. The property is very good value for money, and the food was world-class. It can take a little time to be served, but that’s because everything is prepared with so much care – and it is 100% worth the wait. We had breakfast, lunch, and dinner at the property for all three days, and it was the best food we had during our two-week trip in Sri Lanka.

This accommodation was truly special. The flat is located upstairs at the back of the family’s house, offering a peaceful and private space. It’s fully equipped with a functional kitchen, a comfortable bed, small cabinets, a bathroom with hot water, and a charming balcony with cozy lighting and a lovely view. We stayed here for nearly two months and were treated to fresh juices, coconuts, surprise breakfasts, and dinners prepared by Sandaru’s talented wife. Sandaru is incredibly attentive and always ready to help with anything, from renting a scooter to organizing surf lessons or doing laundry. The Wi-Fi is exclusive to the flat and works great, and the location—about 2 km from Weligama center—is quiet and serene, with an easy road to get there. . We'd like to give a special mention to Sanduru's incredible hospitality and the warm, loving nature of his entire family — his wife, children, father, and everyone else who was always there to help us without hesitation. A wonderful mix of comfort, hospitality, and tranquility! Highly recommend for any length of stay⭐️❤ Couples will enjoy a lot!

The guesthouse and the area are so beautiful. The family who runs it is super lovely. I felt like I would be visiting my grandparents ♥️ the views are spectacular, I was watching so many different birds from the balcony. Really quite and local neighbourhood.

Unbeatable price and super friendly owners. I got an Airport Pickup as well and it was all good!!

I stayed at this apartment for an entire month and couldn’t have chosen a better place in Weligama. From the moment I arrived, I loved the aesthetic and cleanliness of the space. You can tell it’s newly built - everything feels fresh, well maintained, and thoughtfully designed. The apartment feels very spacious thanks to the high ceilings and the two balconies (one small and one large). The large balcony quickly became my favorite spot for morning coffee. The apartment had everything I needed for a long stay: a proper closet, a desk for working, a washing machine, a small but well-equipped kitchen, a fridge, and plenty of space overall. It felt private, comfortable, and very easy to settle into. What really made this place special, though, were the owners. They are a wonderful family who truly made me feel at home. They invited me for dinners, gave me a ride to the train station when I needed it, helped me organize a motorbike, and always made sure I felt safe and welcome. I could go downstairs and spend time with them whenever I felt like company, which meant a lot during a longer stay. The location is also great. The area feels safe and calm, yet you’re only about a 5-minute scooter ride from Weligama town. If you drive a few minutes inland, you’ll even find beautiful little rice fields, which adds to the peaceful feeling of the area. Weligama itself is a perfect base if you’re into surfing, especially for beginners, and it’s ideally located for day trips - close to Ahangama to the west and Mirissa to the east. I would 100% recommend this place to anyone staying in Weligama, especially for a longer stay. I truly felt at home here and would happily come back.

I loved the hospitality of the owner and his family, who were always attentive to my needs. The owner was especially kind as he came to pick me up from the train station and made sure my arrival was smooth and comfortable. The location is perfect, surrounded by nature and just a few minutes from the beach, making the stay very peaceful and relaxing. The rooms were clean and well-equipped, which made me feel at home. The breakfast was delicious, prepared with fresh and local ingredients. Additionally, the accommodation offers reliable Wi-Fi, filtered water, and a quiet atmosphere full of positive energy. The owner was very helpful, providing me with everything I needed, such as a bicycle and laundry service, and even took me on his motorbike to explore beautiful spots in Weligama. It was truly a pleasure to share time with him and feel so well cared for during my stay.

Cute cottages and beautiful garden. This area of Weligama has some great affordable restuarants and bakeries. Cute dog and cat.

Room was great, very clean crisp white sheets and comfortable mattress. Nadee the host and her family are lovely and very accommodating. She let me use her bicycle which was helpful. Very kind people providing food and water also. Will stay again in the future for sure.

Royal Villa Weligama was the perfect place for our stay. The host was incredibly friendly, helpful, and flexible with check-in and check-out, which made everything smooth and stress-free. The rooms were spacious, clean, and air-conditioned, with a fully equipped kitchen that had everything we needed. The rooftop was a great place to relax, and the pool was perfect for cooling off after a day out. The attention to detail and overall hospitality made us feel right at home. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Weligama!

Spacious villa, extra bonus big private pool, 4 bathrooms in the house, exceptional host ready to help you with anything

It was an amazing stay! Breakfasts and coffee were delicious, the room was clean and comfortable. Nice pool and the yard is awesome. Jungle back yard is a piece of art. But it’s all about warm and friendly atmosphere. Gladly recommend this hotel!

Everything was perfect! The staff were super helpful and kind! Loved staying here!

We met the owner and the owner was very nice and friendly with the rest of the staff and made sure our stay was well taken care of. We got the superior double room with the plunge pool. The room was very spacious modern with all the amenities and the pool was clean. Felt like we were in a 5 star hotel. We got only bed. But we were even given a complimentary Sri Lankan breakfast which tasted amazing.

Super lovely and attentive hosts, the best handmade breakfast, good ac and hot water and good location if you have a scooter

Everything!! Location and view are amazing!😍😍

Amazing place to stay, all perfect!

Very beautiful stay with the most lovely people!! The pool is very nice, and the views are amazing. The rooms are big, clean and the shower is very nice (and hot!). It's not too far to walk to the center and the beach, but the location of Sapiens Home is quiet en peaceful. The breakfast is delicious. The staff is more than welcoming and kind, where they helped us when there were stray dogs in the street and we could not get passed them and made me feel special on my birthday with cake, a board and congratulations. We really enjoyed our stay!

Home away from home. I had to work whilst staying here on holiday and the hosts were incredibly accommodating making sure I had a desk set up with a view of the jungle, monkeys and mongoose. The yoga was excellent and the food delicious

close to Weligama Beach, but still quiet area, beautiful pool, very friendly service, great breakfast and big comfortable beds

Our host Channu and assistant Tehan were fantastic even hosting a dinner for us on our last evening and providing us a contact for a safari trip to Udawalawe which was amazing. Channu also has tips on surf schools so be sure to check with him in advance before booking a lesson at the beach! Rooms were also clean and cool due to the AC

The best hostal if you are traveling alone, really friendly
