The property is pristine, the gardens are spectacular and the villas and pools equally as beautiful. We stayed in the Ocean loft, a modern, airy and spacious loft with modern industrial decor with a Sri Lankan twist, it was nothing short of brilliant. The pool is sublime and looks out over a beautiful stretch of the Indian Ocean, with a private beach behind there’s no shortage of space to lounge and enjoy the beautiful scenery. Eraeliya’s staff go above and beyond to ensure your stay is comfortable and nothing short of perfect, their attentiveness and willingness to aid in anyway they can made this stay truly special. To top it off the food is great and there are plenty of options. The breakfast was particularly amazing and was something we looked forward to every day. The hotel is situated just outside of Weligama, it is a 15 minute tuktuk ride to the popular towns of Mirissa or Ahangama, where there is plenty to do of an evening if you wish to leave the property. But if you wish to stay you can also make use of the spectacular spa service to take your relaxation to the next level. Eraeliya and its staff have a special place in our heart after our short stay and we will without a doubt be returning. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/ca26e630-1038-457f-b306-1a18b2a008b9-1745930927786.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/52bcaff7-974f-44e6-8057-e4c8b743704d-1745930932470.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/fa333934-38c5-4195-9484-6e308b36905d-1745930937750.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/5c7ed5f4-638b-4e7f-b9f5-5f85fe66be2a-1745930928325.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Joshua Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Andrew 17 Jan 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Take of two stays. We stayed 3 nights in the Muhuda Bella Villa and 2 in the main villa in the room called Alaya. The small villa is a bit tired and I feel as it's the furthest room from the main building it almost forgotten. But the main Villa is great the room we stayed in there was brilliant. The staff are really friendly and efficient. The food was great. The spa treatments we had were great. The wifi in the small villa was pretty much nonexistent. But the main villa it was fine. Beer is hard to come by which I couldn't understand why, as the hotel is full, they didn't have a huge stock of beer on hand. So a couple nights we could have more than 2 beers! So we went out and bought some, a 10mins tuktuk ride. Overall a good place but don't stay in the Muhuda Bella Villa. ##### Andrew ### 8/10 Good #### Jessica 4 Dec 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Das Highlight des Hotels war das Personal. Das Frühstück war sehr lecker und ausreichend. Aber für den Preis gab’s es zu wenig Auswahl. Der Pool und die Lage direkt am Meer sind ein Traum. Es waren alle sehr bemüht, dass wir uns wohl fühlen, es wurde auch ein Meet-Greet veranstaltet. Essen und Trinken ist relativ teuer, da noch 10% Service Charge und 31% Steuern hinzugefügt werden. Für ein 5-Sterne hatten die Handtücher leider immer wieder Flecken. Das WLAN war sehr schlecht und wir hatten des Öfteren nur sehr geringen Wasserdruck im Bad. Das Garden Loft ist für den Preis leider etwas klein. Dennoch würden wir das Hotel aber weiter empfehlen, da es auch Bemühungen mit neuen Projekten gibt, das Hotel für die Gäste interessanter zu gestalten (Wine Bistro, Outdoor-Gym). ##### Jessica Stayed 6 nights in Nov 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Bobby 21 May 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great hide away!

Boendet känns unikt i sitt slag, inredningen är genomtänkt in i minsta detalj. Det enda riktigt negativa som går att säga är att det saknas bra badmöjligjeter. Lite stenig botten och väldigt djupt snabbt. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 17 Mar 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities L’hôtel est très agréable et la grande chambre au premier étage du bâtiment principal est magnifique avec belle vue sur la mer. En revanche l’hôtel est isolé sans restaurant extérieur accessible à pied pour dîner. L’hôtelier profite de cette situation pour pratiquer des prix insensés sur la nourriture et les boissons (18$ un plat de pâtes). Les prix ont d’ailleurs presque doublés en un an! Les pâtes passant de 1800 roupies (8€) à 18$. C’est dommage et cela gâche un peu le séjour. Nous n’y avons pas dîner. Le mieux est de louer un scooter à Weligama chez Sunmith pour visiter les environs (Galle et Handunugoda Tea Factory) et pour aller dîner, ce que nous avons fait sans problème. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### peiyun 18 Feb 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### 美中不足 飯店靠近海邊,是獨棟villa.每一間房間有不同的特色,房間很大景色很美,,缺點就是燈光不足太暗了.而且我們住的那間冷氣遙控還壞掉.沒辦法調溫度.因為離海灘非常近,所以沙灘上有人開pa放音樂就聽得很清楚因此如果怕吵得建議不要選擇離飯店太近的房間 ##### peiyun Stayed 1 night in Feb 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Chien-Dai 14 Feb 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### 留下美好回憶的一晚 非常有特色的飯店，性價比很高，每間房間都各有特色，飯店裝潢得非常用心，早餐也很好吃\~我與先生度過了非常棒的一晚! ##### Chien-Dai Stayed 1 night in Feb 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Harsh 16 Jan 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Beyond expectations We did not expect anything from the hotel as it was very last minute and the best choice according to other reviews!

Eraeliya is a truly boutique hotel. It was our last stop of a busy 5 week trip and the perfect place to unwind. Everything about the place exceeded our expectations, exuding quality and tasteful design. The owner (Anna) and staff (Julia, Jerome and...) are to be commended for their attention to detail. Expect to hear "yes" and "of course" often. Meals are prepared to order and served on one's own patio. Breakfast is extensive and the dinner choice is ample, delicious and reasonably priced. Alcohol is not served but is allowed, so guests can stock the minibar from the local wine store. Tick! Eraeliya is a short tuk tuk from town and other restaurants (try Akila's). We shared the gardens and trees with monkeys, iguanas and squirrels and went to sleep to the sound of rolling ocean waves. We WILL return. ##### Myles Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 7 Aug 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Wonderful and relaxing villas Wonderful relaxing stay. The Villas were incredibly decorated, and the entire grounds were beautiful. All the staff were so lovely and went the extra mile for any small request. The food was delicious - a short and sweet menu but each dish was fantastic. The breakfast spread was absolutely fantastic!! A perfect spot to relax and unwind, and only a few mins tuk tuk to Weligama Town, or about 10-15mins tuk tuk to Mirissa Beach. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 6 nights in Jul 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Richard 24 Jun 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Excellent family get away Fantastic location and brilliant boutique hotel right on the beach in a very private setting.

Lovely, lovely place, very peaceful. Food was lovely and very reasonably priced compared to the other (high end) hotels we stayed in in Sri Lanka, we had two dinners and one breakfast and everything was great.

Unfortunately the service doesn't quite live up to the beauty of the property, or, more honestly, the rather high price tag. - Breakfast is ordered the night before and supposed to be delivered to the room, at the time you specify. We stayed for 6 nights and breakfast was only on time twice, arriving anything from 15-30 minutes after the time you requested. No big deal if you are just lying by the pool, but as my husband had to leave to go diving one morning it meant he had to go hungry. - For the whole duration of our stay there was only one room key as the previous occupants had apparently forgotten to return the spare. I'm not sure what would have happened if we'd mislaid that key - For three days our air conditioning kept malfunctioning. It was ultimately replaced, and whilst the staff were responsive to get it working again, it just became an annoyance until it was finally fixed - When we left reception tried to get us to sign for the full room charge, even though we'd already paid in advance, which seemed odd. When I asked why hotels.com wouldn't be paying the hotel, they backed down When our driver arrived we said goodbye to the group of staff in reception who were chatting amongst themselves. They didn't reply.
