Weligama Bay Marriott Resort & Spa

Our stay at Weligama Bay Marriott Resort & Spa was truly exceptional. The location is stunning — right on the beach with panoramic views of the ocean. From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed and taken care of.||||Our room was spacious, clean, and had a breathtaking view of the bay. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and the bathroom was modern and spotless. Every detail felt luxurious yet cozy.||||The food was amazing — from breakfast to dinner, there were plenty of choices, including delicious local Sri Lankan dishes. The seafood was especially fresh and full of flavor.||||What stood out most was the service. The staff were friendly, professional, and always ready to assist with a smile. A special thank you to the team who made our stay memorable with their kindness and attention to detail.||||We enjoyed relaxing by the infinity pool, long beach walks, and watching the sunset every evening. It’s the perfect place for couples, families, or solo travelers looking for comfort, nature, and peace.

If you want to ruin your vacation, Marriott Weligama is the perfect place. We had a deeply disappointing experience at this property, and I feel compelled to share the details to warn others. First, expect to be charged significantly more than the prices you see—a whopping 28% is added on top of the menu prices (10% service charge + 18% tax), none of which is clearly disclosed upfront. Second, during our stay, a wedding event completely blocked access to the beach. Guests were expected to either wait it out or literally jump through bushes to reach the ocean. The event went on past 10 PM with blaring music, making it impossible to relax. Housekeeping skipped our room entirely on one of the days without explanation. When we asked, there was no apology or offer to make it right. Despite traveling with a child, we were only provided with a limited amount of bottled water, strictly rationed for two adults. Apparently, extra water for children is too much to ask. Finally, the pool area had baffling rules. A light beach ball was banned from use, but guests were allowed to play with plastic water bottles filled with water, which could be much more disruptive. Staff ignored this entirely. Overall, this hotel falls far short of what you’d expect from a Marriott property, both in service and transparency. I would not recommend staying here if you care about your comfort—or your wallet.

I went to this hotel as part of a tour package and stayed 2 nights. It was a great hotel. My room was large, modern, very clean and had a great view of the ocean. The hotel has nice pools and is also on the beach front. I tried all 3 of the hotel's restaurants and they were all excellent in terms of service and food quality. Check in and check out, despite the hotel being quite full, was quick and friendly. Special kudos to Nuwani, from the Guest Experience Team, who went out of her way to help me print a document I needed. ||I would come certainly come back to this Marriott if I were in the area.

We stayed at Weligama Bay Marriott Resort & Spa for our office trip, and it was a fantastic experience overall. The rooms were spacious, modern, and offered breathtaking views of the ocean. The pool and beach access were definite highlights, and the staff were professional and courteous throughout our stay. Only reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is the breakfast — while it was tasty, the variety was a bit limited compared to other 5-star hotels. That said, we still had a wonderful time and would gladly return!

We visited this hotel for our annual office trip and had an excellent experience. The entire hotel was booked for our group. The rooms were superb—spacious, clean, and well-maintained. The service throughout our stay was outstanding. The buffet was fantastic, offering a wide variety of dishes from different cuisines, including Indian, Chinese, Sri Lankan, Italian, etc. The pool area was lovely and well-kept, and the hotel was very kid-friendly, which made it ideal for families as well. There’s also a beautiful beach nearby. Although it’s currently the off-season (June) for surfing in the Weligama area, we were still able to enjoy a bit of it. Overall, the experience was wonderful, and we had a memorable stay.

We had an absolutely wonderful experience at Weligama Bay Resort. From the moment we arrived, the service was warm and welcoming, we were greeted with a traditional welcome dance and a refreshing drink. The hotel itself is stunning, with excellent facilities including a large pool with a poolside bar, a well-equipped gym, and beautifully maintained grounds. Our room was just perfect and we were also kindly given an upgrade, and to top it off, the staff decorated the room for my birthday with a lovely cake and fresh fruits — a truly thoughtful gesture that made the occasion extra special. A special mention to Nuwani from guest relations, who was incredibly helpful and accommodating throughout our stay. She made sure everything was smooth and that all our questions or requests were handled with genuine care. All in all, this was a 5-star experience in every sense. We highly recommend Weligama Bay Resort and would definitely return.

Rooms and service are superb. And the staff were super friendly and supportive. Location and the ocean view is super cool. It was the best hotel experience I had. Only small drawback was the food. Dinner buffets were a little low in taste. Every other detail was top notch.

Where do I start;||The people ❣️ I always say and it has been said that sometimes it’s not about the property but about the people who brings out the luxury of a property. The kindness, attention to detail and the genuine service.|I booked the property same day directly at the hotel as I needed to get out of the previous property that I stayed for a night only and cause I want service and a place that is well maintained. |Jake at the reception who accommodated with the last minute was very accommodative and patient to show me the room as I needed to have a look before I complete the booking and he has been helpful through out. Nimanthi who escorted me to the room very kind and also has been accommodative during my stay. Chathuranga from housekeeping also was great with his service and nothing is ever too much. Chanil from Weligama restaurant always with a smile and go out of his way to make sure all is going well and that I am comfortable. I asked him for mangoes and he brought two types so I get to try and see which one I like best, I mean now this is service not just cause I asked but went above what has been asked ⭐️. Dilsha such a sweet heart, lovely conversation and as a solo traveler plus a lady there is a lot that can be. I think the property is very protective, conservative at a point and make sure that you are comfortable at all times and do whatever it takes to make you feel safe.|Thank you Randula Assisstant FO Manager that connected me with Dilshan from big fish restaurant who accommodated my customized food request and to be served in the room, he was such a charm.| I wish I could remember everyone’s name that I encounter but just know that you all played a great role and have exceeded my expectations. I mean even the security team is just so kind and you can feel their positive energy.|3 nights well spent and it’s hard to fault anything when you have such team.||Thank you all and we shall meet again for sure ⭐️
