Sri Lanka’s Cape Weligama resort is the New Jewel of the South Coast

Sri Lanka is one of the world’s most beautiful destinations, and with the addition of Camp Weligama, it’s even more desirable for travelers. The gorgeous, spacious, high-end luxury resort is the newest jewel of Sri Lanka’s south coast. Galle is located only 30 minutes to the east, placing this luxury resort directly on the southern coast. The views, accommodations and service are second to none.

At Camp Weligama you will find an array of free-standing villas. There are 40 total, and that includes several exceptional suites. The pristine resort features 270-degree views of the Indian Ocean, and it’s here you’ll find an infinity pool so luxurious and so beautifully designed that it appears to flow freely into the ocean as one.

Location is of the utmost importance at Camp Weligama, which is why designers chose to place the resort atop a cliff on a 12-acre piece of land lusciously landscaped to perfection. There are a number of high-end dining venues and wine bars located at the resort, each one with unbeatable views and first-class menus and wine lists.

Each of the four suites is complete with a private butler. All villas and suites are perfectly landscaped so that guests are provided with their own private garden and privacy, and each has its own unique name. The resort also features a luxury spa in every guest room with every possible service you can imagine – brought straight to your room. The hotel’s staff accommodates a guest’s every need and desire, anticipating the guest’s needs and wants before the guest has a chance to do so.

Views of the ocean greet your every morning from bed, and each night will end with a glass of wine or award winning meal from one of the resort’s many restaurants and lounges. When it comes to ambiance, there is nothing to compare to this luxury resort.
