Unspoilt North Sri Lanka
Bar Reef is really a gem! It’s in very tranquil part of North Sri Lanka, the nature, clean beaches, local villages, mangroves. Best kite surfing spots just a small drive away. The resort and service is incredible, super attentive and they will accommodate all your needs. If you need time away for relaxing, yoga, water sports this is the place. You can always drive up to Kalpitiya for some music and vibes

Beautiful & relaxing retreat
We had a fantastic three nights staying at the Bar Reef resort. Our cabana was spacious & clean and we enjoyed sleeping so close to nature. The staff were very attentive and helpful but not intrusive. We enjoyed some lovely meals on the beach and tried out some of the water sports in the day. The resort is in an secluded setting which is stunning, there is a power station located further down the beach but it does not intrude. If you are looking for a relaxing retreat in Sri Lanka, make sure you visit the Bar Reef resort, you will leave feeling relaxed.

Magnifique !
Magnifique hotel, personnel aux petits soins, piscine très agréable et chambre spacieuse. La douche est en plein air, unique ! Le restaurant est délicieux, et nous regrettons de n'être restés qu'une seule nuit ! Un must même si le lieu n est pas facile d'accès, à seulement 2h30 de l'aéroport, c'etait une première étape parfaite pour notre arrivée au Sri Lanka !

타잔이 된 도시남의 하룻밤 경험
자연친화적이면서도 프라이빗한 리조트. 저렴하면서도 퀄리티있는 식사. 특히 젤리같은 요거트에 꿀의 조화로운 디저트는 캬 ~. 야외의 화장실과 샤워실은 자연인임을 착각케함에 충분했다 직원들의서비스정신 또한 최고였고 바닷물로 채워진 수영장도 알품이었다. 자연상태의 룸컨디션도 나쁘지 않았다 다만 6시부터가동되는 에어컨과 모기와의 싸움이 깊은 잠을 방해했지만 이 또한 자연인으로서 삶이기에 참을 수 있었다 정말이지 최고의 경험을 하게해준 바리프 라조트와 회사애 감사를 표한다.
