My two kids were spoiled by sending the foods they love.

The kids club:
The kids club was really great.

We also got to play volleyball by the beach and observed there were fun activities for kids as well.

We travelled in a big group - my mother left behind her credit cards and ID cards - and the hotel immediately called us and informed when they found it - we really appreciated the honesty and integrity of the staff

Kids also enjoyed the games room - 2 table tennis, 2 babyfoot and more

So we were able to have a peaceful swim and play with our son as well.

We loved the pool and our 4 year old son loved the water slide.

We enjoyed the stay and kids loved the place too

Pool was very clean & they have a kids pool with a slide which is safe & nice.

We were looked after very well and it made it a very enjoyable time with our little boy.

My kids have learned to surf, with perfect waves for learner’s.

A particular mention to Tharindu, our room keeper, and to Dilshan, the restaurant manager who really took care of our kids needs.

We traveled as a family (2 adults & 2 children [5 &7 yrs]) to Weligama to relax and learn surfing.

They also have a kids club (we did not try

- Electricity backup which meant we had air conditioning - a big thing currently with the state of Sri Lanka
- Lots of activities for children and adults - table tennis, foosball, pool, beach access etc
- All guests were treated well - no discrimination which was a refreshing change!

The children also dive bomb into the pool and jump splashing guests around the pool.

The one with specs is my favourite and also there was anothercute little girl as well.

Kids area and the  three swimming pools were delighted my son.

There are plenty of activities for kids and teens, with kids club, pools and a wonderful beach that is ideal for swimming and surfing.

The facilities offered by a hotel are futile if the service is poor, and we felt Weligama Bay Marriott Resort & Spa ticked both boxes (especially due to Sanjeeva's efforts

Even the day before our arrival our rooms were confirmed by a staff named Imbrani to our agent and didn’t honour on the day.That’s what I call poor customer service and in fact deceiving the customer.

Please look in to service quality as you will loose customers due to poor service

Welcome drink was a poor version of an iced tea.

After being cooped up the whole day in our room on our last day as we had to cancel the pool plan due to: the poor weather, poor pool hygiene and sun shade collapsing incident we ordered lunch and the prawn salad portion was tiny (smaller than a kids size portion).

Services of kids club staff are very poor.

Due to the poor management, we had to come to lunch on slots (12.30 to 2.00, 2.00 to 3.30) 
4.

My children who can’t eat much spicy food had a very poor tasting pasta and mashed potato.

but the service we got was so poor we had little faith - simple things like emailing us back, giving us basic information over the phone just absolutely nothing to make us think this hotel will care about our wedding - until we spoke to sheine at the Marriott.

Hotels like charging us in pounds or dollars because they offer poor currency rates, inspite of me insisting i want to transact in lankan rupees.

In my country there is some words and I think my poor translation will not picture entire meaning

The exchange rate is very poor when you pay this way with the credit card.

The mattress was definitely of poor quality.

After a sour experience checking into the hotel due to delays and poor communication between our travel agent and Marriott, the team at Marriott Weligama were able to accommodate us suitably on our 2nd and 3rd night.

The poor room service resulted in us phoning reception on a daily basis to ask for towels and shower caps, I am sure they would see us ringing and be thinking ‘not them again!’.

The rooms were spotless, there was a huge variety at breakfast and dinner and the staff regularly offered to provide anything extra we may need.

the rooms are clean and tidy thanks Saman & the team for the wonderful efforts  .

Navinder, the gentleman who cleaned and organized our room and did an immaculate job.

Our rooms were immaculately clean and complete with stylish decor.

We stayed for several days at the Marriott, had a great time - thanks so much to Tharindu who kept our room clean and lovely each day.

The Rooms are very luxurious and the room-service of Dimuthu and Naleen was alsways perfect - room was always clean and we got everything we needed and even more (e.g.

Check in was agile with modern rooms very clean & impressive with the wooden touch & the set up was excellent.

Visited twice (In 2018 and 2021), the rooms were still looking so new and clean.

Friendly staff, clean rooms, tasty meals.

We stayed here for 2 nights and the room was clean with a bath tub as well.

The room was clean, with all the standard amenities one would expect to have.

If I remember correctly, we were in 8th floor - our room was so clean comfy with a breathtaking views of the ocean.

The view from the rooms looking out onto Weligama Bay absolutely stunning.

The view from the rooms is really nice because the sea and the beach in front of the hotel is one of a kind.

Hotel is perched on the beach with an amazing view to our room.

While the room and view were fabulous we were left with a feeling of not being wanted!

All around great hotel and amazing location with stunning views from each room.

Room and the bathroom was extremely clean and the view from the room was amazing.

The hotel is situated right on the beach with a brilliant location and the views from the room are simply magnificent.

Fabulous buffet food, incredible views from our room, great pool, friendly staff and fantastic location.

Hotel is located right in the middle of Weligama Bay, all rooms have ocean view and you can watch sunsets every day right from your room.

The hotel took care of us very well and thanks to the chef de cuisine on duty and all the staff members who took care of us like family.They arrange a cake to the room and the views were just amazing!

I really appreciate her great hospitality.

We visited Marriott Weligama recently it was a fabulous experience for us and a unforgettable holiday.

Ishanka Gamage (Hotel Manager) and the team who gave us an amazing welcome filled with Marriott's professionalism and Sri Lankan hospitality
2.

Thanks to the staff again for such a cordial experience.

what a wonderful stay we had and all my 26 pax experienced at this beautiful resort thanks to all the great facilities.

but then booked again other 5 nights as by my experience of multiple stay in Sri Lanka in the past 4 years this is definitely the best 5 star hotel of the Country.

Had a wonderful couples massage, spent time in the luxurious pool and breakfast and dinner buffets were 5-star experiences with excellent service.

Therefore, we wish to thank Shalani Tennakoon for been understanding, flexible and supportive on this aspect.

And of course I'll be back again to have a much more delightful experience!

Stay here, you'll feel the essence of true Sri Lankan hospitality.

We recently returned from another two-night stay at this homely hotel by the seaside with the traditional Sri Lankan hospitality well-known to all who visit Sri Lanka.

Thank you for the nice experience, we will visit you soon again 😍

Even with the country in turmoil, this resort gave us unforgettable experience.

We had a nice dining experience at the PoolBar 
They offered an excellent service with fantastic Hospitality 
Specially Mr Manoj n Mr Rasanga and all staff members are treating to their guests so nicely 
Visit and try poolbar menu as well at your next visit to the Marriott 👍

Standout was their hospitality &  will definitely come back again.

The best views, the best staff and and the best hotel experience in Sri Lanka!!

I am certain our initial experience was an isolated incident.

Once again we visited Weligama today and didn't forget to visit TIDES @ Marriot, where we always made special memories thanks to their yummy cocktails, fantastic food and hospitality.

We had a great stay, the room was clean, the staff was very accommodating and friendly.

Super clean rooms, great location (2m walk to the beach, and in the center of the main road) and the kindest hosts!

Despite the proximity of the ocean - no dampness or mold, no unpleasant smell.

There is a problem with the drains that comes through from late afternoon which makes visiting the bathroom unpleasant.

So don't expect to hear or "smell" the beach from your room.

though I must agree that it is missing ventilation which makes it and subsequently the room smell a little damp.

but has no ventilation so there was visible damp on the walls and ceilings, and the whole room and bedroom smelled of damp
- The wet room takes a long time  to dry our after a shower
- The water pressure wasn't great (not ideal when so close to the beach) and was either hot or cold

Overall, we wouldn't return to Dream Palace if we re-visit Mirissa (unless they sort out the damp).

Dream Palace Family Guest House

Peacock Villa

secret-beach

Only good thing is the location and it is on the beach and employees friendly.

Beachfront and location  is really beautiful.

However I was impressed by the hotel and it’s wonderful location on a beach overlooking the Indian Ocean .

but this hotels is located too far away on another beach.

The whole property is located on a seashore.

Hotel with large rooms, located on the beach!

Hotel is situated in a nice area where Polhena river meets sea.Its a very picturesque location and beach is also very nice.

It is in a great position right on the beachfront and close to the fishing port for the whale watching tours.

The beach location was beautiful and the staff very helpful

The hotel has a prime location on the beach.

Great hotel with nice big, comfortable rooms, great (almost private) beach location next to the river.

Hotel location by the beach is great, rooms are big, milkshakes were fantastic (with icecream).

this hotel is a nice small resort located right on the beach.

The boutique hotel was perfectly located at the beach and the surrounding area wasn't too crowded therefore we were able to enjoy the scenic beach.The rooms were truly huge; the bathroom was massive and also had a jacuzzi.

The communal areas seem quite nice and a good location right on the beach.

The location of this hotel provides quick and easy access to a number of other beach locations and is an ideal hotel for a quiet and relaxing moment on a long journey.

Mandara resort is located on the beach with some senic views and is a well kept property.

Very good calm environment, very supportive and friendly staff, They provide good and healthy food with out artificial flavors, it's really feel our taste buds.

We had a great stay at Mandara Resort.The staff hospitality is beyond 5* hotel.They welcome us warmly and the rooms are clean and tiddy.The food was delicious and had a superb buffet spread.The location is very quiet and  calm.

The breakfast and dinner buffets were also perfect with a variety of cuisine and I really loved my stay there.

The breakfast and dinner buffets have a good selection of western and Sri Lankan/Indian food, the best consistently being the Sri Lankan options (the western choice being a bit bland and recycled from previous days).

The massage is great, the food is delicious and nicely served.

The food for a fullboard trip was unexpectedly great, both Tom and I had said you never really know what to expect from buffet food

I met a very good friend Sandalu, he is head chef 
here, & the food is delicious.

The food was good - both dinner and breakfast.

Food was delicious and Specialy staff was so friendly and helpful.

Food was very tasty and the buffet had an excellent variety.

Good buffet meals and very pleasant cocktails.

Had a delicious dinner last night at the bar restaurant!

Food choice was buffet style for dinner and breakfast with a good choice of dishes all being well prepared and presented.

Being, a pure vegetarian -still had enough options for breakfast and dinner.

Wonderful resort..with a beautiful private beach..The rooms were spacious with balcony, sea view and coconut  trees .. Breakfast and dinner varied.

Food is delicious and there's a decent spread in the buffets.

We enjoyed buffet breakfasts and dinner which had an array of western and Sri Lankan food - very delicious!

Good services, superb food , here was good customer service MR  promodya perfect and neat service and lovely care   Friendly with guest .

But the room was very clean and staff is very friendly.

Pramodya was a great waiter, attentive and very friendly.all the staff were friendly too and the food were very tasty.

The staff & management was seen to be extremely friendly with all guests including us and did not forget to check up on us to see whether we are comfortable.

A/C works well and staff were very friendly.

Samudra, the Sales & Marketing Executive at the resort was also very friendly and supportive and

Good ambience, friendly staff and good food.

Staff was so friendly, especially Sandalu the sous chef, he made our stay unforgettable.Breakfast was really good, just don’t occupy the big tables if u r small group, staff say big problem.

Nothing was too much trouble, the staff were so friendly and helpful, especially those in the restaurant, led by Gayan.

Chef Sandalu was very friendly and gave us our daily fist bump as well as checking we were enjoying ourselves.

The stuff was very helpfull and friendly.

Hotel staff is very friendly and happy to help.

A room facing the beach , staff always at your service with a smile , front office staff Prasad, a perfect friendly chef Sandulu who made my sons trip ultimate with his delicious delight made to perfection and good manager Kamal we’re the icing on the cake of Mandara Resort.

The hotel stuff is very friendly and helpful.

Unforgettable experience at Mandara.Amazing service from Chef Sandalu.Great food and always want to give his best.Amazing service staff and so friendly.

I am very sad to leave here because the staff are always friendly and hygiene protocols are strictly adhered to.

Salads were not fresh and very poor service at the restaurant .

Initially I was unhappy with the room assigned due to poor location and heavy mildew.

The poor lighting in the room was so depressed at night with lights so dim.

Very off-putting and environmentally very poor.

The receptionist offered multiple IDs and password - first why can’t you have just one across the hotel for guests; second what’s the use of the signal is poor!

No Wi-fi signal in room, and poor in public areas.

None of them were using trolleys and sorry to see that our bags were damaged due to their poor handling.

I really can't imagine how a hotel could serve such poor quality food!!

When my husband and I unfortunately fell ill due to some poor dinner choices at a previous hotel, the manager, Damith, acted so swiftly and calmly to take us to a clinic.

Several other guests were seen struggling at the reception due to poor service.

but poor with the waiters not really interested in their job.

It's POS

Dirty towels,
Slippery floor with dirt,
No exhaust in bathroom,
Bathing cubicle is not enclosed, so water spills all over the bathroom,
No dental & shaving kits,
Wash basin waste stopper lifting mechanism was out of order,
Poor lighting of room, hence very difficult to read,
AC modes were not working,
No buffet & the poor selection of set menus,
Disappointed welcome & departure

I am not recommending this hotel to anyone.

The buffet was poor and you can see food recycling from dinner to breakfast. More importantly, if they don't have "enough??!"

One thing to be aware of is that the internet connection is fairly poor so don't expect to be able to much more than check emails.

The food is also pretty poor so after one meal here we escaped to Mirissa main beach for much better food and atmosphere.

The management was poor and we had to wait quite a bit when we got locked out of our rooms because even with your keys you cannot get into your rooms if you happen to lock it from the inside (this did not make any sense at all).

I'd say it is also overpriced, which would not be the case if the attitude front desk and possily management were more welcoming.
