Cape Weligama, Weligama, Sri Lanka

Overview

Commanding a cliff-top position above Weligama Bay on Sri Lanka’s southern coast, Cape Weligama is a contemporary resort offering sweeping Indian Ocean views, pool-side elegance and refined coastal living. The architecture draws on the heritage of tea-plantation bungalows, timber-floored terraces and expansive verandas, combined with modern hospitality and polished service.

Spacious suites and villas open onto vast terraces, with ocean-facing plunge pools, coastal gardens or direct access to the resort’s beach cove. Interiors combine relaxed luxury with bespoke furnishings, local art and soft linens. The resort’s signature infinity pool curves along the cliff-edge, while two scenic restaurants serve fresh seafood, Sri Lankan classics and international cuisine under the open sky.

A standout feature is the inclusion of Cape Weligama’s private-island boat trip: guests can escape to the resort’s own island at sunset or morning for a picnic or snorkelling adventure. Wellness is equally catered for, with an immersive spa, yoga decks and turquoise sea views. Whether you’re watching whales off the bay, learning to surf in Weligama or simply relaxing with a cocktail at sunset, this resort offers a sophisticated base for coastal discovery.
