Delightful place. So so relaxed and casual. Very friendly staff, great food and such hospitality. The air conditioned tented accommodation is super nice - the bathrooms are airy and clean. Hot water on tap and a great outdoor shower area. Wi-Fi works across the resort …. if you feel the need to be connected with the outside world

Paradise! The staff here were always 2 steps ahead, so you wanted for nothing. When you asked for something it was no bother and the guys would happily help you out. Nothing was too much trouble. There was always someone you could find quickly, without anyone hanging over you. The food was amazing! I now love curry for breakfast lol, but I doubt I’d ever eat anything as good as it was there! I’ve never been to anywhere like this. Felt like I was in a series of White Lotus - without the drama but with all the class! No music blaring. The tents are bigger & better than flats I’ve owned. Best food I’ve eaten. Perfectly sized resort with lots of different areas to go off to any time of day. My cousins and I had a huge bed each in adjoining rooms. Very quiet at night. A fan in each room and AC to share. An amazing quirky bathroom which was then open to a private courtyard with its own outdoor shower - and sun! (We stayed in Humpback) We took the boat trip to see dolphins and we saw HUNDREDS! Have out in capital letters due to my excitement lol, I’ve never seen any before. Some previous trips also saw whales. There are other activities on offer too but we were only there a few days - please go - and you will not regret it!

We had a wonderful calm, luxurious 3 nights after a busy time touring Sri Lanka. The luxury ‘tents’ are so comfortable and spacious and decked out beautifully. Food was delicious, staff all very friendly and helpful. We were lucky enough to see 500-600 dolphins on our boat trip. There is a nearby wind farm but it does not impact the beauty, calmness and overall feel of the resort. Cannot recommend enough.

Spent a fabulous and memorable 2 nights. Everything about this resort is top notch…….. Super clean, friendly and obliging staff and really yummy food presented so beautifully. A lot of attention has been paid to aesthetic detail and comfort. I found myself go “wow” at each new discovery. Needless to say the dolphins were the icing on the cake.

Great getaway for someone who wants some sun, sea and sand. The accommodation was very comfortable and the food was excellent. Great service, friendly staff and extremely neat and clean. Would recommend a minimum of 2 nights to get a feel of the place.

This was an amazing place, where a relaxed, back to nature, ambience combined with excellent service and care and fabulous food. It was wonderful to experience nature, dolphins swimming an arms length away , beautiful birds in the lagoons and bears lolling in trees in Wilpattu. I was travelling on my own and felt super safe and looked after in the most sensitive way. Thank you dolphin beach, just what I needed.
