See, feel, love Palagama Beach

See, feel, love Palagama Beach

Most resorts are artificial. Closed off security walls, rows of sun loungers,
where’s the authenticity? Where’s that connection you feel inside?

Forget typical hotels. Discover a truly unique Sri Lankan experience at Palagama Beach.
​
We have redefined the holiday concept. The vision of world-renowned designer Cecil
Balmond OBE and his son John was simple – to create beautiful, sustainable living spaces, blending traditional Sri Lankan design with a touch of the contemporary.

Palagama Beach is a ‘village’ of 16 cabanas and villas nestled in the heart of the
peninsular. Everything here is designed to bring you back to nature, from the eco-
Cajun and illuk roofs, to the rugged coastline and luscious greenery.

We know how precious your holiday is. You need to have everything just the way you like it. To us you’re a person, not a number. That’s why we offer a variety of lovingly designed homes, each with its own charm and character, as well as a range of activities (Dolphin watching anyone?) to connect you with this beautiful island.

At Palagama Beach time fades away. It’s just you, tranquility and Sri Lanka’s natural beauty.

  •   We stayed here with 6 other friends. We had the villa overlooking the sea called “sunflower” and it was fantastic. We loved the rustic rooms and the outside shower. It was a new experience being watched by the sand crabs!! We were adopted by a...More

      Palagama beach is very small, almost shabby, but its so beautiful, and incredibly relaxing that any possible flaws are forgotten in minutes. We stayed for 4 nights and just forgot about the rest of the world! The staff are fabulous and very friendly, and the...More

      First the good news. Lovely staff, helpful to a fault. We came for dolphin watching, and it is superb. The boats come right to the beach, so you just kick off your sandals, don a life jacket and its about half an hour's ride out...More

  •   During our trip to Kalpitiya, my wife, little son and I stayed for three nights at the Palagama Beach. In general the hotel is nice (also equipped with a nice pool) and the cabanas are clean and comfortable. As we stayed at the hotel during the off-season we were partially the only guests and the we got a free upgrade (beach cabana instead of normal cabana). Most of the staff was really kind and attentive. The included breakfast is large in variety and delicious. Last but not least the free WiFi was working rather well (definitely not always the case in Sri Lanka).
    The hotel is directly at the sea, but also in the middle of nowhere. Consequently it is not that easy to reach shops and restaurants. Compared to other restaurants in Sri Lanka, we were a little bit disappointed by the quality of the restaurant of the hotel and it was also comparatively expensive.
    All in all we had a nice stay at the Palagama Beach and if you want to spend some relaxing days in a quiet area it is definitely the right place. More

      enjoyed many sunsets during our stay in Kalpitiya. the water is friendly to get. The other beaches are closeby to drive from here. We stayed on this beach due to its proximity to other locations. We drived each day to other close by beaches.

      Situated adjacent to the beach at Alankuda and with the majestic wind turbines just down the sand, this is a good choice if you like quirky and rustic. The huts are set in large, well maintained grounds, with a huge infinity pool as the centrepiece....More
