    No complaints. Everything was great.

    The location was perfect for us, we enjoyed the tranquility of the river and surrounding nature while being only a short walk away from the beach and surf spots. We also enjoyed the food very much, a different kind of breakfast every morning (sometimes sweet, sometimes savoury, always a surprise) and beautiful plates with rice, curry including multiple different components in the evening. The best part though was the sweet family that made us feel very welcome.

    This place is truly a home away from home. The host family welcomed us warmly and from the first moment did everything to make us feel comfortable and to take care of us. The room is very cozy and clean and we enjoyed our time on the family property, hanging out at the riverside or on the rooftop terrace. The location is super calm while only a short walk away from the beach.

    Kosi Giggles Resort has been my favourite accommodation in Sri Lanka. Rashmi and her family were so lovely and took amazing care of me. I really felt like part of the family. The local breakfasts and dinners (they have a newly opened restaurant) were delicious. The room was clean and had everything I needed. The location is also a gem, with the river at the backyard. I hope to be back!

    What a great beginning of our trip! We’re glad we’ve found this place and experienced the hospitality and warmth of the family running the place. It’s a perfect place if you want to stay in a quiet area a bit further away from the busy and noisy streets and parties but still in the walking distance to the beach and the Weligama center. The place is situated by the river and and surprisingly there was not a lot of mosquitoes! Every morning the delicious (and huuuge) breakfast was served by the river edge in the sweet morning light under the palm trees. We also took a cooking class here which was a very interesting and delicious experience 😋Totally recommend!

    My stay at Kosi Giggles far exceeded my expectations! The family took such good care of me and I felt so relaxed there. They cook delicious food, the breakfasts were big and I'd definitely recommend having a rice and curry there for dinner, it was the best I'd eaten in Sri Lanka! I even took a cooking class to learn how to make them which was so lovely and really interesting. They're situated right on the river surrounded by fruit trees and you can even spot iguanas chilling on their property. Being greeted by Gigi the sweetest dog every day was an added bonus 😊 they've also installed air con in the rooms so it's a very comfortable stay. I'd highly recommend staying at this lovely place.

    We first stayed one night in the non airco room wich was very hot and the fan for us wasn't enough. We could switch to the airco room witch was perfect!

    Very friendly hosts that will help with everything. Good and different sri lankan breakfasts everyday with a beautifull view in the garden at the lake. So piecefull and very nice start of the day. Also had scooter rental. And we did a cooking class with them what was very nice and tastefully. There are two dogs both friendly.

    Our only minor issue was that the room could get a bit dark in the evening.

    We absolutely adored the Kosi Giggles Resort in Weligama, especially the welcoming family atmosphere that made us feel right at home. The breakfasts were not only delicious but also varied, making each morning a delightful surprise. We were impressed by the beautiful garden with a river and fruit trees, which the proud owners were more than happy to show us around. The location was perfect - just a short walk to the beach and the town center, but far enough from the main road to provide a peaceful and quiet setting, allowing us to observe various birds and animals. The air conditioning in the room was also a great plus, keeping us cool during the hot months.

    I really enjoyed my stay here. The family are really beautiful and go the extra mile to make your stay comfortable. They took a friend and I to visit a turtle sanctuary which was amazing. Excellent value for money. It’s around a 10 minute walk into weligama town or a 2-3 minute scooter ride. Will book here again :)

    On my first day, they had scheduled a repair for a gas leak on the air con unit. No one told me the unit was leaking before checking me into the room. Potentially, it was a very dangerous situation for me, sleeping in a room with no ventilation and a leaking aircon unit. They decided a guest could still stay in the room whilst work had prior been scheduled, I was denied access to the room I paid for 5 hours. Throughout my stay, I was asked for pictures for marketing the property. I checked out early after I was again asked to leave the room on another day for new photographs to be taken. They moved my scooter whilst the wheel lock was on without consent. I had left my passport as a deposit and thought it had been stolen when I saw it was not where I had left it. Again, to take pictures for marketing. I felt a lack of respect or dignity was provided here. I left due to feeling uncomfortable. I was due to stay in Sri Lanka for two months and decided after this and other events to leave Sri Lanka after just 2 weeks. I came to Sri Lanka to relax. Not for people to try and take advantage of me. To top it off, they wouldn't even provide me with the air-conditioning they kicked me out of the room to fix for 5 hours.
