  I really enjoyed my stay at Blue Maalu Resort. The house has wonderful ocean views, and my room was very clean and comfortable, with no issues with insects. Waranga was incredibly helpful and kind throughout my stay. I unexpectedly needed urgent medical care, and he helped me find a good doctor and arrange the necessary medication. He was always available to help with any questions or requests. He also sometimes organizes complimentary dinners by the ocean, which is such a lovely touch. The breakfasts were excellent everything was fresh, delicious, and beautifully prepared. I highly recommend Blue Maalu Resort. You are made to feel like a friend rather than just a guest, and Waranga is always happy to help with anything you need, from arranging taxis to recommending and organizing activities. Thank you so much for your wonderful hospitality. I truly enjoyed my stay and would be happy to come back!

  Perfect

  I stayed at Blue Maalu Resort with our two sons and had an unforgettable experience. The host was incredibly kind and helpful throughout our stay. He took us to Turtle Beach, where we saw wild sea turtles in their natural habitat for the first time. It was a magical experience, and our children were so happy. We also visited a beautiful nearby beach for snorkeling and swimming, which we absolutely loved. One afternoon, we went on a Madu River boat safari, and it was amazing. We saw so many birds on the island and enjoyed the peaceful beauty of the river. The breakfast was fresh and delicious every morning, and all the staff were friendly, welcoming, and always ready to help. We were very sad to leave this exceptional place. We highly recommend Blue Maalu Resort to anyone looking for a relaxing, authentic, and memorable stay in Sri Lanka. We can’t wait to come back!

  I like everything.

  Best hospitality

  Wonderful sea view room with a mini fridge and hair dryer. The highlight of this place is the outstanding hospitality. I traveled around Sri Lanka for 13 days, and this was my final stay—and it was the perfect way to end my trip. As it is currently the off-season, there are fewer tourists, and the prices are very reasonable. The hosts prepared delicious, healthy rice and curry meals, and they also recommended an excellent local Ayurvedic massage center at affordable local prices. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing stay with warm hospitality and great value for money.

  The beach was rough during my stay due to the monsoon season, but this is a seasonal weather condition and not specific to the property.

  Amazing location, off the beaten track, lovely people.

  This is a gem of a place - quiet, ocean-front, incredibly chill and with lovely people running it. They cooked curry and rice in the evening which was lovely and incredible value. Really recommend as an alternative to more expensive and busy Hikkaduwa which is only a couple of bucks away in a tuk-tuk. Lovely clean rooms with fridge and a beautiful view over the ocean.
