- Scored out of 10, guest rating 8.9Fabulous - What previous guests thought, 37 reviewsWe stayed one month in total and we had an amazing stay at Sri Lanka Kite by Margarita ! The kite spot is perfect for beginners to more advanced level. The school is located on the upper part of the lagoon where there are less schools, which meant that some days we were only 5 on the spot. The staff is incredibly nice, we felt really good during our whole stay. There are also three beach boys, Chathu, Sanji and Diane, who are super helpful and are always happy to help you in any situations (rescue, untangle the lines, bring your kite upwind). The owners, Ruben and Eusebi, are very nice, accessible at all time and super flexible ! We changed our plans multiple times and whenever we needed a plan for a driver or an activity they had very good contacts. We also did a kite trip to Vella island where we did our first downwind, best experience ! The food was also amazing. Every night there is buffet, usually a Sri Lankan rice and curry, and sometimes, as the owners are spanish you can find some tortilla or chorizo. The pizzas were also the best in whole Sri Lanka ! We loved our stay and thanks to all the team we could progress a lot. Looking forward to come back !!Guest review byElsaFrance
- From £65.38 per nightScored out of 10, guest rating 7.7Good - What previous guests thought, 109 reviewsThe hotel is great, clean and spacious, located just by the kitesurfing beach so it is perfect for kitesurfers. There are beautiful trees and palm trees in the surrounding garden, big swimming pool and very kind staff. We were more than happy to stay there and regretted we couldn't stay longer. The restaurant offers very tasty food for good price. I only regret that Sri Lankan people don't support local dogs that wander in the area, scared of humans and terribly hungry. If there was a special fund to support the animals I would definitely pay more for our stay so that the dogs can get fed. Apart from that we loved our stay and we will definitely be back! The place in our opinion is better than Kitesurfing Lanka that is next door.Guest review byGabriela GuaranaPoland
- From £109.95 per nightScored out of 10, guest rating 9.3Superb - What previous guests thought, 81 reviewsThe space is absolutely gorgeous, from the well designed bungalows to the common areas, yoga shalas and so on. A lot to explore, not only flora and fauna wise. The food was decent (besides the Pad Thai?), the team very kind (s/o Sebastian). DIY-activities, like taking the kayak out are great, we even got to see bioluminescent plankton swimming in the calm ocean at night. Highly recommend, even if you're not into kitesurfingGuest review byTobiGermany

I love the simple tent setting and it’s surroundings. I joined their night guided walk and it was great, lots of interesting facts :) All the staff were very nice, helpful and friendly! They compost all their food scraps and recycle if any plastic bottle makes it to the camp. They provide you with a fresh drinking water :)Guest review byDenisaNew Zealand
- From £274.48 per nightScored out of 10, guest rating 9.0Superb - What previous guests thought, 31 reviewsPerfect 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).Guest review byFloorNetherlands

Full day safari was excellent. Saw everything. 5 leopards.
Full day safari was excellent. Saw everything. 5 leopards. Sloth bear. Elephants. Cross. Water Buffalo. And many more. If you have to choose I revommend afteroon from 4pm for best chance of seeing animals when it gets cooler and they become active for the evening .Guest review byDarrenUnited Kingdom - 10.0
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.Guest review byJayashantha84Sri Lanka - 8.0

The Manager of the hotel and his staff (including 3 dogs and a cat) are above any praise. If you seek for a well organized place to rest without problems do come to Puetz Travels Beach Resort. Mr. Marcus will make your trip a real holyday. Even wild crocodiles that live in the nearby river dream to move to the magic canals of Puetz Travels Beach Resort. I wish i were among the lucky ones.

Kalpitiya is a very beautiful destination. A place to stay for a few days. There are many places for you to enjoy and visit. But be careful when you find a place to stop. Be more careful with low-cost places. Dinuda Villas is a very beautiful place. Babzy and the team are doing very well.Guest review byLiam NoahFrance - 10.0

The place is magical Mr Omar has a love for nature and transmits this to his guests. The staff Mrs Lakshi and Mr Ikhmar were very helpful and kind. The food superb and even the wine! The grounds of the property are in the forest. The lagoon is beautiful and birdwatcher ‘s paradise. The best walk at the lotus pond with hundreds different species of birds.Guest review byMaria GabriellaItaly - 10.0
We planed our trip for three days.
We planed our trip for three days. There are several places to visit in Kalpitiya. We went to Kalpitiya Dutch fort, also Kalpitiya Dutch church. St. Anne's National Shrine is located nearby. It is known as Thalawila Church too. No matter what religion you follow, St. Anne’s Church in Thalawila is one of the most ancient and wonderful of all Christian shrines in Sri Lanka. Our third day was very exiting because we planned a boat ride to Baththalangunduwa island. Baththalangunduwa is an island off the northwestern coast of Sri Lanka, reachable from Kalpitiya. The boat ride from Kalpitiya is roughly 32 kilometers long and takes approximately 3.5 hours. Camping on this island is becoming increasingly popular among local tourists.Guest review byChathurangaSri Lanka
