I recently stayed at Windy waves and had an absolutely wonderful experience. From the moment I arrived, the staff went above and beyond to ensure my stay was comfortable and enjoyable. What truly made my stay memorable was the kindness of the staff (Mossas, Malinda, Nixon, Suji and everyone). everyone was genuinely helpful and courteous. I highly recommend to anyone visiting the area and will definitely be staying here again on my next trip. Thank you for such a fantastic experience!

Looking forward to have an air-condition in the room in my next visit :)

Windy Waves truly won our hearts in Kalpitiya. We chose this hotel based on its incredible reviews and they were absolutely right. The rooms are cozy and charming, with beautiful open-air bathrooms that add a special touch. The staff were exceptionally kind and helpful throughout our entire stay, making us feel genuinely welcome. The restaurant was flawless, offering a variety of delicious dishes with perfect flavors. We loved it so much, we’ve already decided to come back!

We had a lovely time at the nature resort, it was a welcome surprise to have Yoga offered every morning on the beach. The food was very reasonably priced and good compared to other places in the area. The trainee program for young people in the area is really nice, it sometimes takes a bit of time to get your food, but they are learning and a really good group. The accommodations are rustic, so be prepared. We had a curious squirrel or two poke their heads in to say hello. It is cash only, but we were able to pay our entire food bill at the end with card, so it worked out quite nicely.

There are a lot of mosquitos, but the mosquito nets worked well at night. Just be sure to take repellant.

Exceptional space integrated with nature and right on the beach. Would recommend the beachfront cabanas - you won't regret it! Breakfast was an incredible welcome into Sri Lanka with every day offering a chance to try new local food. Warm and friendly staff are a real asset!

Nothing - everything was as per the photos/information - this is more a personal preference - I stayed in the single room with shared bathroom (outdoor, exceptional) and would have liked a window for fresh air. I would suggest finding the extra budget and booking the beachfront cabanas - they are beautiful and worth it! :)

The facilities were of very high quality, and the staff was helpful and friendly. We loved staying in our room, the comfort level was very decent. The staff helped us upgrade our room for free, after being disturbed one night by commotion and noise nearby.

There were noises from adjacent communities or buildings during some nights and mornings, which impacted the "resort" feeling of this place. The beach restaurant was decent but not more than that, and we got unlucky with mosquitoes and flies getting all over our breakkie and lunch. The air quality during some evenings was terrible from fires or something else. The wifi was quite spotty, which is probably not the hotel's fault but a local reality.

We had an amazing stay at Windy Waves with delicious included breakfast and beautiful bathrooms with water coming out of seashells! Very friendly staff, clean beach and great beach front restaurant where we made some lovely friends. Very close to Ocean Lanka dive centre too who took us out for an amazing dive.

They organised us a tuktuk ride back to the bus stop which cost an arm and leg more than we were used to - definitely charging tourist prices for transport (somewhat understandably).

It’s perfectly situated on the beach. We stayed in one of the beach huts and the hut was outstanding. Super open air , open shower, GORGOUS bed. We didn’t struggle with anything. Food at the main restaurant is great and the staff is slowly but surely learning their English. We managed to communicate just fine. We did the national park tour and they helped organise + packed our breakfast for us. It’s a simple small hotel resort but it’s perfect for the location. Make sure you also go visit the Mom’s kitchen the restaurant down the street

A very cool place to stay, lovely thatched beach huts. Fantastic location on the beach, great food alroind with seating metres from ocean edge. Rooms have oitdoor bathrooms which are very private and certainly different!. Nice touch of a clam shell to wash your feet from the sand before going inside. We had a lovely stay for 3 nights, very friendly staff that were very attentive. Best place to stay in the area especially for kite and wing surfing.

If I had to find fault, a menu explaining breakfast options and what you were presented with.

Really nice place for kite surfing (would recommend to check the wind forecast) and relaxing at the beach. The food at the restaurant is really good. Also really nice to sleep right at the beach and hear the waves at night. We also went diving next to the hotel. Value for money is good!

Since it’s a beach villa there were always ants in the hut, I guess nothing you can do about this. Also beware that during low season this is a really remote place with nothing going on.

We loved it so much we came back for a second time. The vibe is very relaxed, the food is exceptional (try the tuna steak or the shrimps!) and most importantly the staff are very supportive and genuinely interested in your wellbeing! The kite school is very good for independent riders and the day trips are a must.

That I had to go home.
