Lion's Rest

Lions rest was the most amazing stay for me and my family. The staff were all so so helpful, kind and accommodating and I request big or small was too much trouble for them. The room was clean, spacious, and the location is just amazing right next to the main surf breaks. Everyone made us feel truly welcome and a special note that my wife has got a gluten-free allergy so travelling can be difficult but again the management and catering team went above and beyond every day to make sure she had lovely food to eat throughout each day. Could not recommend this place highly enough …great work guys and thanks again! Jon Duncan ✌️

Warmly welcomed and felt like part of the family from the moment we arrived.

Great location right on the beach. Very friendly and helpful staff, excellent food, particularly the Sri Lankan curry. Nice clean pool for when sea to strong to swim/surf.

Nothing at all

Great location, top service with beautiful rooms, pool and view.

The restaurant for dinner is very nice. The food is great, but it is expensive for Sri Lanka. Breakfast was included and was excellent.

Lion's Rest is an absolute gem. It made my trip to Gurubebila exeptional. The staff was friendly and attentive, they went above and beyond to make sure I had everything I needed. The grounds were very well taken care of. The room I stayed in was very comfortable and clean. The locations was perfect, right by the sea, surf, and close to restaurants. The breakfast was delicious, I love that the coffee, tea, fruit, and toast, was set out to self serve (then you get to order off the menu as well). Everything about Lion's Rest was very well thought out, I will return!

My son loved his own sleeping space with the upstairs loft!

Fantastic location, in more chilled village a short Tuk Tuk ride away from the main hustle and bustle of Weligama. Staff super friendly and helpful. Delicious breakfast and dinners. Great for staying as a family with young children. Plenty of space to relax and for a crawling baby! Lovely pool. Rooms were spacious, cool and clean. We would have stayed longer if we could! We may return at the end of our trip!
