All you want your tropical holiday to be and more! - Walking into Paradise @eraeliya_villas on Weligama Beach felt magical ✨️

This property is truly a boutique hotel with a big soul. With an array of suites and villas... Read More to choose from, it felt like we were walking into a Tropical Heaven. Every detail had been thoughtfully put together and you can instantly feel the love, comfort, and serenity this property had to offer.

This place is Perfection. It truly is the Jewel of the Bay! Don't think about it, go right ahead and book in a few days here, you won't regret it!

Unforgettable - I had an absolutely wonderful stay here! The hospitality provided was top-notch, making me feel like a valued guest from the moment I arrived. The attention to detail throughout the... Read More villa was remarkable, showcasing a level of care and thoughtfulness that truly enhanced the experience. And the views... oh my! Waking up to the stunning vistas of the beach every morning was a dream come true. I can't recommend this place enough for anyone seeking a luxurious and rejuvenating getaway

This is the best place we have ever stayed. Ever. We stayed here for 4 days at the beginning of our honeymoon, and then later on... Read More were booked at a 5 star hotel (Anantara Peace Haven). We literally left early from Anantara, despite the fact that it was non-refundable, and booked two additional nights at the Gardens.

The setting is absolutely beautiful, the dinner area overlooks the ocean, where you can see surfers and sunsets every night as you have curry and wine. The rooms are completely unique from one another with incredible attention to detail. And then we move to the service. The staff is small, and you get to know them by the end. I will miss them all. Dulshan the concierge is professional, relaxed, kind. Sandun, Rex, Dean, and Jayntha of the restaurant staff are always positive, attentive, and work extremely hard. The kitchen is wonderful with Sri Lankan and western dishes.

We are from the US, and its a long trip to Sri Lanka. However, if we come back, we will definitely be staying here again.

A beautiful slice of paradise, wonderful all around, marvellous, and fully deserving serving its 5* rating! - Eraeliya is fully deserving its 5* rating. The rooms, suites and villas are tastefully and uniquely decorated with much love and attention to detail. The beautiful grounds and gardens are... Read More maintained immaculately. The undisturbed oceanfront location affords stunning views over the ocean with unforgettable sunsets. Even though jungle beach is a favourite launching point for surfers, the sandy cove is also one of the few Sri Lanka beaches for safe swimming. The high level of service and quality of food are additional highlights. Breakfast is huge and stunning, and the catch of the day is the freshest and most tastefully prepared fish you will find anywhere. The owner Njuri, and the entire staff are fully dedicated to pamper their guests, and ensure their wellbeing. They provide service at its best! The relatively small size of the estate with only 9 rooms and villas affords a much more private and intimate atmosphere. Once you arrive, you have no desire to go outside again. Truly, a small slice of paradise!

Amazing Experience  - Amazing staff and always having a wonderful attitude.
Special appreciation for Pramith who went over and above to make my son taken care of.

Also I should mention Pramith- Butler who severed us gave us a great service, and was very active and kind hearted and very attentive to his work. He never fails to fulfill our needs on time without failing- Kudos to Pramith, keep up the great service.

Highly recommended!

A gem of a boutique hotel we found in Weligama - Eraeliya is a very fine beachfront boutique hotel. well maintained and the property looks stunning. We loved all 3 meals we had during our stay with them from Dinner to... Read More the next day's lunch it was lovely. They have a really nice menu with a good number of options to choose from.

Unique and one of a kind - My first 3 nights in srilanka was spent in Weligama, a unique experience at Eraeliya hotel. Specifically in Alaya Suite.
