Onilwe Resort Weligama

Le lieu est super sympa, tout comme le personnel qui est au petit soin (petit déjeuné copieux et variés).

Pas tout le temps de l'eau chaude à la douche mais vu les températures ça ne pose pas grand problème.

Breakfast was great and the dog was cute

Nothing

Very Nice place and quiet. staff was very friendly.

No have bathroom amenities. Main door lock not working properly

Very good stay

The location is quite as it is away from the busy main area of Weligama. The room was spacious as was the bathroom and it had a good shower with hot water.

The smell of mold in the room was quite overpowering but withouth a mosquito net it is obviously not ideal to open the door for fresh air. Big patches of paint were stripping off the wall and crumbling on the ground - looks messy and run down but could easily be repaired if they cared to do it. The big light in the garden area stayed on very late(/all night) illuminating the room so not good for light sleepers.

We had a very short one-day stay at the Onilwe Resort. It was a great experience, and we sincerely thank the wonderful host.

friendly welcoming staff, so helpful and welcome to solo travelers. They go out of their way to make a good stay. Peaceful, quiet, great for working online, great wifi.

A little bit of a walk to beach.

Great host, clean rooms, great, quiet and nice place. Super super super value for money. 10/10.

Great place to stay. Large, clean and comfortable rooms. Peaceful location, but only a short walk into town. Recommended.

The stay in Onilwe resort was outstanding! The owner and employees made the whole vacation even more memorable. Every morning with smiles served delicious breakfast and also special traditional NYE one. If we had any questions we got always a great tips! The area is wild and nice, room was clean and tidy and there is also an opportunity use laundry service. Thanks for a pleasant visit and nice memories from Sri Lanka. 🇱🇰 I can only recommend!

All good!

Very nice place, garden, nice and helpful owner.

Good rooms, great breakfast, pretty balcony.

Really clean, comfy and good size rooms. The breakfast was great, and we also had dinner there too - The food was amazing!

- Laundry service - Owner very nice - easy and quick to reach via whatsapp - later checkout possible as I had a surf lesson in the morning - Air conditioning good - bed comfortable - very quiet at night - Shower jet good and warm water - Outdoor area very nice - also very nice with the tree in the middle - about 15 minutes walk to the beach and good restaurants

- 5 cockroaches (3 in the bathroom cupboard, 1 in the bedroom, 1 in the shower) and a few ants + mosquitoes in the room - There are gaps on the terrace door and bathroom window, allowing mosquitoes to get through - No drinking water (for refilling) available - you can NOT call a PickMe TukTuk from this location. I have tried several times. Nobody accepts - Wifi (to really work or for meetings you should fall back on the mobile data volume) - not really shampoo and shower gel available - only 1 towel

Great rooms, rooftop

Went here off season. Staff wasnt very welcoming and helpful

Onilwe Resort is an absolute treasure in Weligama! From the moment I arrived, I was struck by how clean and serene the place was—a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle. The staff were nothing short of amazing, always attentive with warm smiles. And the owner? A true local legend—genuine, friendly, and full of great stories. The food was a delightful surprise, offering rich flavors at very reasonable prices. Plus, safety and comfort are clearly top priorities here, with convenient and secure onsite parking making everything hassle-free. Its prime location, just minutes from both the town and the beach, makes it the ultimate stay for anyone looking to experience Weligama. Can’t wait to return!

Superb

Everything

Nothing

Air con was amazing, it was a bit faulty one day but the staff got on it straight away and it was fixed by the afternoon. Rooms were a good size and bed was comfy. Rooms had a kettle. Shower was nice and water pressure was good. Staff were very friendly and nice. They made a fantastic buffet style breakfast which we would recommend getting, good value for money. The stay is a bit further back from the main town, which is good for a quieter stay, but does mean a bit of a longer walk to the beach and restaurants (15 min walk to the beach, there are some really good and cheap restaurants nearby just over the bridge). The stay itself is nice with a big tree growing in the middle and nice garden.

The room was quite big, very very nice bathroom, clean and directly on the garden. I was able to rent a scooter quite cheap directly there which was very convenient. I liked the location as it was a perfect base for surfing and also exploring the nearby beaches.

Breakfast was only 9-11 and could be improved a bit, maybe with some sweet options and well and dosa.

Все супер!

Really beautiful hotel surrounded by nature and with a tree in the middle! The room was nicely decorated and very clean we loved our stay here. Good location, only a small walk to shops and weligama bay. You also cross a really pretty river to get there. Tuktuks are also available everywhere if you didn’t want to walk.

The wifi was a bit on and off but overall excellent value for money and a lovely place to stay.

The host was so kind and welcoming! It was his daughter's birthday when we stayed and he even shared some cake and food with us! The room was perfectly clean with a comfy bed. AC was fantastic. Great value for money.

Janaka is a super nice and helpful host ! The place is quiet and comfortable yet close by everything you need. Rooms are simple but they’ve got all the necessary. Def one of the best places money/value I found in Sri Lanka.

I booked a room at this location two weeks in advance and even sent a message prior to my arrival. I was informed that the room would not be ready until 1 pm, which I understood and was okay with. Upon our arrival, we left our bags outside and returned at 1 pm as instructed, only to be told that the room was not ready because the current guest had decided to extend their stay. Carrying bags with a toddler in tow, this news was disappointing to say the least. While the host did arrange for another room from a neighboring property, it was not equipped with the same facilities as the one I had originally booked. Despite this discrepancy, I was still required to pay the same price. Overall, the experience left me feeling let down and inconvenienced, especially considering the prior communication and expectation set. I appreciate the effort to provide an alternative accommodation, but the lack of transparency and the mismatch in facilities for the same price was disheartening. I hope that this feedback can help in improving the guest experience for future bookings.

Nice place. Ac, no moscitous, hot water and fine balcony

Room looks tired and begging for some refreshment. Pillows was covered with fat, sweat and smelled terribly disgusting

This is just a great mini-hotel! the room is clean, there is air conditioning, hot water. The owner is very nice and always ready to help! The breakfasts are delicious :) I feel like I'm at home here

everything is good

The hotel has a very helpful host. The host will help you find a way out of any situation. Excellent breakfasts. You can rent a bike at a nice price.

Absolutely and more than precisely Nothing

Nothing more than Everything

Everything

Quiet, Rooms big

Mosquitos

I stayed at Onilwe Resort Weligama for three nights and enjoyed every second! Although the hotel is not directly on the beach, it is immersed in a quiet, green and peaceful area only about 10-15 minutes to the sea by walk, or a few minutes by tuktuk or bike. The rooms are simple but elegant and recently renovated, air conditioned, and the beds very comfortable. The breakfast, which you can chose to have as continental or srilankan, is delicious and one of the best I have had. Laundry washing and drying service is available to guests within same day. Wifi connection is stable and fast, and both the rooms and common areas are equipped with a table in case you need to work. There is the possibility to rent a bike. Finally, but not for importance, the host is really a lovely and kind person: very kind and helpful, but also always never pressuring and very discrete. If in Weligama, I would book here again.

I stayed here in low season. The owner could not do enough for me. The room are on suite and have full A/C and the opition to hang mosquitio net. This building is only built in the 5 years and so is modern and new and clean.The wifi is good .The owner has also lived abroad and understands the needs of travelers. It place is relatively close to town but in quite area.If your a couple or solo traveler it prefect place to stay. The owner also is in the know to set you up with a scooter and other needs. I stayed longer then expected... thanks for great stay

like every where in Sri lanka owners of accomadatons are struglling so fixuture and fitting can seem tiny bit broken. Also you need remember there was importation ban by the goverment so it hard to replace things if they get damaged. In my view this place is value for money . There nothing i did not like.

The owner was super friendly and very nice. We could also do our laundry here directly at the washing machine of the accomodation. Air conditioning was working properly.

Maybe it's because we got here in the off-season but the room was not clean at all. We have been to several Sri Lankan hotels at similar price ranges but this one was definitely different. We had the feeling that the bathroom was also not fully finished or at least needs a renovation as soon as possible. The worst part was, though, that a new level is being built on top of the building. The construction worker started before 8 in morning so we had absolutely no chance to sleep in after a long travel.

The place itself is really nice, green, quiet. The room was equipped with a desk, a kettle and a hair dryer. There was a minor inconvenience caused by the construction works upstairs and I asked to change my room for it was impossible to sleep with that noise. The host agreed and gave a room downstairs which was even better.

The towels could be cleaner

The host of the homestay was very friendly, and the entire check-in process went smoothly. The facilities in the room were excellent!

None

Beautiful, clean rooms with comfortable beds, hot water shower, and cold AC. Friendly and helpful staff and delicious breakfast. I would recommend.

nature feel, comfy room, amazing and friendly staff and amazing value for price

The room was excellent, the host was great, the breakfast was so tasty

everything was great

You have a small car park area but can manage. Everything was good. 700m walking distance to beach. Silent and peaceful place. Recommended to anyone

Sympathique villa. Nice big room with balcony with fascinating details of interior. Strong wi-fi, working desk in the room, kettle were available.

I really lacked fridge

good price for good quality, landlord is really friendly and helpful, apartment is in the quiet neighborhood, lovely

maybe a bit too much mosquitoes, but it’s close to the river so that’s why

All good! Thanks

The place is super comfortable and the host, Janaka, is marvelous.

There are some things, that could have been better, like cleanliness, common kitchen, but it is Sri Lanka, and not the center of Berlin, so those are expectable.

The host Janaka was extremely welcoming and helpful. Not only he provided the breakfast, which was really good (fruit plate, eggs/omelet, sandwiches, coffee/tee), he also made us shashlik and grilled fish. The room had air-conditioning and hot water at all times, except when there were power cuts, but usually it did not last more than a couple of hours. In general the place has an exceptional quality to price ratio.

Onilwe is a small, cozy and well-designed resort located in a quiet place a bit far from tourists crowds, newertheless it is in a walking distance to the beach, nearby shops and restaurants. The room was comfy enough with good AC, good water pressure in shower and good Wi-Fi. Yummy breakfast (choice of continental, Sri-Lankan etc) for just a bit addition to the room rate. Overall, with no doubt the spot has one of the best money/value ratio in Weligama. For last but not least, the Onilwe’s owner Janaka is a very nice and openminded dude doing his best to help guests with all their needs.

Best place we stayed during 2 weeks in Sri Lanka. Host are very nice guy, helpful, but you have a feeling that he cares about comfort and not showing too much. Served amazing breakfast that he prepared. Also 4 dogs in territory very friendly and always waiting.

Peacocks screaming from 6 in the morning :))) joking
