Marriott Resort & Spa

Weligama Bay Marriott Resort & Spa sits right on the sand of Weligama Bay, one of the most sheltered stretches of Sri Lanka’s southern coastline and one of the best surf beaches in the country. The bay’s naturally calm curve makes it ideal for swimming and beginner-friendly surfing, creating an easy, accessible beachfront base after days spent travelling through Sri Lanka’s cultural heartland. As a modern beachfront resort, the Marriott offers large, light-filled rooms with private balconies, polished facilities and wide ocean views that begin the moment you enter the lobby.

This is a hotel chosen for comfort, convenience and space. You can relax beside the expansive pool, enjoy casual meals overlooking the water, or slip straight onto the beach for a morning walk along the bay. The resort is also well positioned for activities along the southern coast: surfing lessons in Weligama, whale-watching from nearby Mirissa Harbour, exploring the boutiques and ramparts of Galle Fort, sunset cruises, or visiting quiet coves and fishing villages scattered along the shoreline. It’s an excellent option if you want a reliable, easy seaside stay with plenty to do on your doorstep.

Weligama Bay Marriott works particularly well at the end of an itinerary, but is equally as rewarding as a break from touring, providing you with the freedom to unwind in comfort, swim in the bay, explore at your own pace and enjoy Sri Lanka’s relaxed southern-coast lifestyle.
