ジャガ ベイ リゾート(Jagabay Resort & Surfing School)

Jaga Bay Resort was fantastic! I arrived in town and the place I had booked did not have my booking and Jaga Bay came to the rescue. This is a family run local business. Jaga the owner supports local children with their education through his own personal donations and those of past guests. I was being a sticky beak one morning as a crowd of women and children were having a little ceremony and thanking Jaga. He explained to me that since the tsunami the hotel and past guests supported orphaned children to finish their schooling. There are only two children left so now they support local children in need. This warmed my heart so much as I saw such genuine support and appreciation with everyone there. I was in Weligama before a friend's wedding and was in desperate need for an under garment for my Sari. Jaga's wife and main office lady went above and beyond for me on new years eve...I managed to find an awesome tailor, personalised tuktuk driver's and first class service...and the best breakfast view! I will always come back here. Thank-you so much!

We have stayed at Jagabay Hotel many times in past years but have been able to stay for the past 4 years because of the pandemic and economic problems in Sri Lanka. We were absolutely delighted to be back once again. Staff work very hard and are so helpful. Accommodation is overlooking the wonderful golden beach and Indian Ocean and the food here (rice and curry especially) is really excellent. The owner Jagath is extremely welcoming and helpful and will advise on all aspects of travel both local and around the island. Really looking forward to our next visit!
