Weligama Watergate

Lovely owner, rooms very clean and comfortable!

It’s under some construction at the moment, but that didn’t impact my stay at all.

Fantastic staff that were very friendly and accomodating :)

We had a great stay at Watergate in Weligama. The host was incredibly kind and helpful, always ready with recommendations for places to eat, nearby banks, beaches, and anything else we needed. The room felt newer, was very clean, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The location is fantastic, just steps from Weligama Beach and close to everything. It’s very walkable, and tuk tuks are easy to find if you want to explore a bit further. Overall, a really convenient and enjoyable place to stay. We’d definitely recommend it!

Don’t have anything to share here!

The owner's mother and their family members were really good and we appreciated their welcoming attitude for new guests.

- The photos listed for the room in booking.com are different from the actual ones. - There is no power-backup or inverter connection for the rooms. We missed our early morning bus to Ella as there was no power supply and we could prepare ourselves on time. - This property could be referred to as a lodge and not a homestay or hotel. It is disconnected from the owner's common areas as there was no place to dine, prepare our food. Usually homestays offer some access to common utilities such as washing machine, coffee-maker, dining table. - The property rooms have their small refrigerator, bowls, cutlery were provided to us by the owner on request, electric kettle was also provided. The owner is good and is looking forward to improve. - The rooms are very close to each and this may create some problems as someone tried to get into our room on the first night which was concerning to me as I was with my wife. I had informed the same to the owner, he should install another camera for covering the length of that corridor for guest safety. - The bathroom doors could not be closed for the whole two days due to faulty installation is a spoiler. - Overall the property is at a fair distance from the road and is opposite to the beach but is at some distance from the main activity area. - The property owner is very friendly is keen to provide additional services. - I think this place needs a few improvements to make really a comfortable accomodation in the future.
