I went with my wife to De Silva Wind Resort and We were greeted by a smiling lady called Sanduni. We felt at home from the time she explained all the details professionally. We were escorted to a basic but clean room and served with welcome drinks. We were really happy and rested till evening. Dinner time,we were treated with a buffet with offering that matched the price. We awoke next day and had a hearty meal in the morning, and set about joining the kite team in the boat. Even though we did not know anything about kite surfing the team led by Sachin and Chalanka showed us how to use those equipments which were brought all the way from Europe by the owner of the kite school. We came back to the hotel in the afternoon and watch the sunset from the chill out area with a beer from the well laid bar. Next day we came back to Colombo with a stunning experience that will make us go again when the season begins in October.

Super close to the lagoon, the staff is amazing, and always there for you, they are the best! Exceptional watersport instructor! Special thanks to Navin, Aakash, Satchin, Nalika, Max and Yassin who made our stay unforgettable ❤️

it's the only windsurfing center in Kalpitiya, but it feels like this offering is being neglected in favor of kitesurfing, unfortunately. Windsurfers are left in a windless corner of the lagoon, while kiters take a boat to the windier area.

We had a great stay at De Silva Kite resort. The staff were lovely and couldn’t do enough to make our stay comfortable and enjoyable. Location is great, right on the lagoon if you are there for watersports. If some of you aren’t boarding, you can still join the boat and go across the lagoon to the main beach. The staff at the kite school are very skilled and knowledgeable and look after everything. A big thank you to Baba and the team.

The accommodation is perfect for water sports enthusiasts. Everything you need is available - fantastic, new water sports equipment, excellent service, delicious food, wind, a hammock or the pool to relax in after a day on the water. In the evenings, you can unwind at the bar. By the end of September, it was already transitioning into the off-season, but that meant we had the lagoon to ourselves. The cleanliness of the accommodation meets European standards, which is rare in Sri Lanka. Highly recommended! We had a wonderful time!!

The staff working there are all just the best. The lady at the office helps with everything. Nice food, local and western. Good vibe. Right in front of the lake. New kitesurf equipment, in good conditions.

Prices are too high, drinks, sunscreen, etc. even more expensive than some european countries. The prices are in Euros, that is the first bad sign…

The hotel was good and location is very good as it’s easy to reach to the lagoon in 2 minutes , also there is a nice bar and chill area in this property. - Food was really good

Room doesn’t have AC , Guest need to ask for water and I would recommend anyone to ask the ppl in the hotel to by for you water bottles

Very nice and chill vibe! Loved the atmosphere in the resort. And that you’re allowed to use the pool from the neighbouring property. The breakfast is truly amazing!

It‘s very close to the lagoon but when you want to get to the beach, it‘s a very long walk. Also it‘s not so close to the city but that’s just how it is in Kalpitiya I guess.

Location is just perfect. You can start start kitesurfing next to resort. Food is really good and the bar is a chill place to enjoy your evening.

If you stay for longer the food tends to repeat

The DeSilvaWind- Resort is an absolutly amazing place, the staff is totally grandiose and helpful ( Nawi, we fell in love with you!!) We enjoyed a loveley week there, having kite- lessons and Ayurveda massages. We can defenitely recommend this place. It is a pity that there are -at the moment- only a few tourist in Sri Lanka. We travelled around the Island for four weeks and didn't have any bad experience - as reported in the medias. We felt save and caringly accompanied all the time.Sri Lanka is an amazing place, thank you for hosting us.

If you are planning your Kitesurfing holidays in Kalpitiya like me. De Silva should be your destination. They have all Kitesurfing equipment you need (brand new Noth Kites) plus service in case something would happen with your kite. The boat will take you straight from the resort into Big lagoon. Everything is well and professionally organized. Special thanks goes to the owner Upul, Kathy and Upul right hand Nalika 😉 as well entire De Silva Crew for making my stay fantastic. All my needs and expectations were fullfield. Always get the help I needed. The friendly attitude of the staff makes De Silva unique place on the map of Kalpitiya for Us Kitesurfers. I strongly recommend to take the food from the bar - Al carte menu. Grilled prawns - 1650 RS; Grilled Tuna Steak 1600 RS, Grilled Cuttlefish 1475 RS or De Silva Sandwich 750 RS. As a guest you also have free access to 2nd De Silva resort with beautiful and modern swimming pool. Strongly recommend to check this 😉 as well. At Kalpitiya you kite on the main big lagoon, but just on the opposite side you have the Ocean! De Silva will organise for you downwind in the Ocean with the safety boat behind you for double security and your own comfort. Swimming in the Ocean is great activity too for your cardio. This is my 1st visit in Sri Lanka, but for sure not the last.

Absolutely nothing.
