L’emplacement. Le personnel,

Super fantastic beautiful location just on top of the ocean. Constantly helpful and smiling staff it's a true pleasure to hang around. Great breakfast, with the best view over the ocean, leaves nothing else to request. Very fresh, clean and nice atmosphere.

It's remote so you need transport (Tuk tuk) to get in to Welligama, but staff arranges with ease. Constant sound of the waves, could be seen as a good thing ;)

Everything. New Bay View ticked every box for us. The view from our room was stunning, if you can get an upper deck very worth it. The room was clean, comfortable, equipped with a fridge. We stayed over Christmas and they made us feel like home. Nothing was too much trouble. Breakfast was devine and lots of it. We never felt hungry. For lunch or dinner we recommend any of the local fish they've caught that day, we had with a garlic sauce and oh my gosh YUM. Plus this place has the best Chicken Kothuri we've tried since being in Sri Lanka. 10/10 you must try. Suresh the host was kind and welcoming, he was happy to organise anything we needed. Paritha was such a credit to the hotel, he was very attentive at breakfast service, he was always so busy, we never saw him not working, always sweeping or cleaning or looking after a guest. Value for money - so worth it. There are parts of the hotel that need updating - not the main areas ie room, resturant, foyer all lovely. But downstairs where the sundeck is and there is a stunning area below the resturant which is under cover view of the sea perfect for evening relaxing watching the sea. This does need a lick of paint, but the guys are on it. There were many people painting while we were there and in the 7 nights we stayed some of the rooms were transformed. Location - it's a little out of town, which was perfect for us, as far from the busy main road and the loud trainline. Be prepared to take a tuk tuk or a 30min walk. Alot of the tuk tuks have surf roof racks so you can store the surfboard at the hotel if needed. We can not wait to come back, if we are ever in Sri Lanka again this will be the place we come to.

Getting in and out of the room after it rained the tiles make the floor quite slippery. However this is just a small section of the hotel and only if you're in the part of the hotel we were. So just take care here.

Great views and access to private beach. The staff were beyond helpful, looked after really well and it felt like we were staying with family and friends.

My second time in the hotel and I enjoyed again the amazing view and the great staff. I had a really good time to relax because its very quiet and the lounge is so comfortable to chill, eat or little bit to work on notebook. The restaurant was also really delicious with fresh fish and food. I will come back. Gladly again. Thank you so much.

Really clean and comfortable rooms with European standards! The view to the sea is really nice and there are many places to sit, chill and enjoy this panorama. You can directly start snorkeling from the location (we even saw a turtle), for swimming it's better to visit Jungle Beach (10 minutes to walk).

Wifi connection in our room was not really good and it‘s a bit away from the city and the main beaches, but you can easiliy go there by Tuktuk

What an absolute hidden gem! this property is in such a prime location, secluded, but close enough to busy Weligama around the corner. Basicly a private beach out front with incredible snorkeling. Jump in the ocean right from the tanning deck out front. Rooms were big and super comfortable with amazing sea views. Staff super friendly and accommodating. Also, don’t go anywhere else for dinner, their food is spectacular! Fresh fish from the day available, but everything we tried was so tasty! Highly recommend!

the staff is really friendly, breakfast is very good and the view you have is just insane! Wish we could stay here forever!

the room we had on the ground floor had no sea view as it says on booking; but they gave us an upgrade to the first floor and the view you have here is gorgeous
