Nad, Lebanon

Friendly staff and fellow travelers. It was easy to blend in and tag along with different activities that are happening

Rawan, United States of America

Amazing! Location is hard to beat--right on the beach at the quieter end of town. Restaurant with great food and drinks and great view. Great place to meet people, staff does an awesome job of entertaining. Rooms are super spacious and clean, beds are super comfy, aircon works great, pool is awesome. Decent boards, surf packages seemed legit.

David, United States of America

This is the best place to stay if you're looking to surf/take lessons, esp as a beginner..,staff super cool, private rooms big and comfortable and quiet, cold AC, food good in the restaurant, great value, place fills up so don't book last minute...I would definitely stay again

Anne, United States of America

The surf and yoga staff were phenomenal. Milo was the surf coach and he was excellent - not a typical surfer kid, but a mature teacher.

Alexander, Canada

The staff was really cool, the restaurant had a nice ambiance, rooms were spacious and clean. They also offer yoga classes but it's not included in the hotel.

Luluta, Brazil

Guys are so nice. Rooftop perfect. Surfing course is so cool. Really want to come back now:(

Thuy, Vietnam

The owner is very friendly and helpful! He sits near the pool before its surfing lessons to talk about what he needs to work on

Rosmenda, Sri Lanka

The pool was nice and the view from the top balcony was really pretty.

Bad WiFi. Too few sockets. My surf instructor seemed to hate her job and and I didn’t enjoy her coaching style.
Very clean, good common areas with good menu for food and drinks. Very close to the beach and you could have surf lessons twice a day (if you want) or yoga and other activities. Very close to the beach and walking distance to central Weligama. Nice swimming pool.

There was a power outage during my stay but it was due to the unstable energy supply of the area. The staff were very apologetic and it didn’t severely impact the stay :)

Really Enjoyed the stay. Rooms were large, good food and nice social vibe up in the common area. Surf was good to learn on, nice consistent waves, bit of rubbish on the beach but not the fault of the hostel.

Food service in the restaurant was slow, but they have only just reopened this week so I'm sure the efficiency will improve.
Spacious room with very comfortable beds. A wide range of tasty food options in the rooftop bar/restaurant. Decent swimming pool with plenty of loungers. Really friendly and helpful staff.

The room smelled a little bit muddy. But after a little bit of ventilation the smell went away.
The Surfer in Weligama is the place you want to stay if you want to learn surfing. We took surf lessons twice a day. The surf instructors are very nice all together. The food in the restaurant is also clean. We had a lot of fun sitting together talking or playing carom. The room was big and clean. The pool is also nice to jump in after an exhausting surf lesson
