Awesome place! Great staff, and many other nice travelers. It's a super cozy place to stay that feels exactly like home the minute you arrive. Everybody functions like a little family hanging out and talking to each other. Free bikes (or motobike rentals) to get into town, free canoe to explore the lake. I really loved it here. The location is truly awesome even if it's 15mins bike away from the city. No regrets. We were here 2 weeks and loved every minute of it. Definitely one of the highlights of my entire Sri Lanka trip.

Wake Up Weligama

Weligama

Located around 29 km from Galle International Cricket Stadium, the hostel with free WiFi is also 29 km away from Galle Fort. The accommodation features a shared kitchen, room service and currency exchange for guests. Really nice vibe! We had a double private room which was pretty comfortable with a big fan and a bit far from the dorms and the common area! Which is good if you want to relax but you are not so included in the group of the rest of the travellers! However the host providing information of everything about food and events around Shiah is really nice.

The property is around 6.6 km from Galle International Cricket Stadium, 6.7 km from Galle Fort and 6.8 km from Dutch Church Galle. Free WiFi and a shared kitchen are provided. Judith and her family are so welcoming.. The minute I set foot in this place I knew this is where I needed to be. Time to rest, explore and have some good conversations. It’s been over a month now and I’m still here.. I love to check the garden for birds, wake up with amazing breakfast and have fun with Leo & Levi. Spending Christmas and NYE with them (bonfire & waterfight!!) was the cherry on the cake. They feel like family now and I know it will be hard to say goodbye. The food is delicious and you can sign up for a cooking class by Jud herself (please do, it’s amazing). Oh and don’t forget to try her coco iced latte. 🙏🏼 There’s beaches and temples to explore, you can rent a scooty or bicycle if you don’t want to walk. And so much more but this message is too long already. Just book a few nights (or a month ;)) and see for yourself. Judith and Isuru will welcome you with open arms. Love you guys! Thank you x1000 for being you.. Please stay your beautiful self. 🧡 (and Leo and Levi, please don’t grow up)
