Location and concept is relaxing and amazing. Especially Cabanas among casuarina forest and the view of wind mills. There is no other place to have such experience in Sri Lanka. The rice and curry was made from local vegies picked the closer farmlands. And seafoods are also amazing too. The maneger and the all staff is so friendly supportive.

We had a fantastic week-long stay at Rascals. It was hard to leave at the end as it felt like home! The room was clean light and comfortable. The whole resort is very tastefully designed :) It was a great place to learn kiting. The wind was good, it was sandy and shallow, the instructors used radios and the equipment was great. You take a boat out to the spot and it was a comfortable ride. One of us wasn't kiting and it was still nice to join on the beach to watch the kiters and pet the stray island dogs! The food was amazing!! Italian ingredients are shipped from Italy and each night there was a feast. Highly recommend going full board to include all lunches and dinners. Pizza night is on Saturday, don't miss it! Breakfasts were also lovely with many options. Planning to come back again in the future!

I really enjoyed my stay. The wooden bungalows are very rustic and cozy, with open roofing and an outdoor shower. The garden is well-maintained too. The school has a WhatsApp group where they share information about lesson planning, wind conditions, and activities, which I found really well-organized. Dinners are served with all the guests at the kite center, which was just 5 minutes away by bike. Safran was my instructor. He is very experienced and teaches in a great way—always calm, helpful, and full of good advice. I made great progress thanks to him. I felt like in a kitesurf community . Thanks a lot to Safran and all the Margarita staff!

Perfect stay at the Karanukarala Ayurveda resort, especially the Ayurveda treatment was wonderful. In the beginning, the crew told me it was fully booked, but in the end, they managed to schedule it for me. The room was big, and really clean and the beds were very comfortable. I enjoyed my stay there, especially to relax (recommend the yoga and meditation classes).

Kalpitiya is a very nice place to enjoy Kitesurfing in Sri Lanka. The atmosphere is very agreeable. The people are very pleasant and peacefull. There are plenty of places where to eat in Kudawa. It may just be a bit challenging on the first days to get the hang of it. Once understood, we don't want to leave it.

Kalpitiya is an enchanting destination.

Kalpitiya is an enchanting destination. It's the only place in Sri Lanka where you can take kitesurfing lessons and safely practice kitesurfing with expert assistance from seasoned local kitesufers. Although it's generally considered an arid landscape, even in August, one of the driest months in Sri Lanka, it was largely green and without sweltering heat. Probably, the strong wind causes the heat to dissipate. There's a long stretch of fairly clean beach to explore. Many hotels to stay in and many restaurants to dine at. If you take the train from the Colombo fort railway station like me, you can get down at Palaviya station and walk about 100 metres to reach the road leading from Palaviya to Kalpitiya and take a bus from there and then get down at either Kurinjipitiya or Kalpitiya depending on where you plan to visit and/or stay in. Apart from Kitesurfing, you can go sightseeing, see dolphins, bask in the sunshine, take boat tours, cycle and more in Kalpitiya.

When going on safari, go at the crack of dawn as there is a queue of vehicles at the gate. So leave before 6am. Go for a whole day safari not a half day otherwise you’ll miss out some of the animals Great lots of wildlife. Also check out the weather as we had rain in the afternoon

You need a car or a Tuk Tuk to take you anywhere as it is away from any shops ect The hotel was very helpful and arranged a Tuk Tuk to take us to the market and religious site. Be mindful regarding the beaches as they are not fit to swim in due to the plastic rubbish and pollution in the water. We went for a walk on the beach but came back after a few hundred metres as it was too depressing to go any further due to the plastic rubbish all over the beach and the millions of microplastic balls that we thought were stones and then realised what it was. Very disturbing

Beautiful nature of the national park with the possibility of observing many wild animals, a paradise for bird watchers. If you are lucky, you can see a leopard or elephants. Very good accessibility by bus from Anuradhapura. Near the entrance to the park there is a large selection of accommodation and safari providers.
