The villa is smack bang on the beach in Weligama so you can stumble out of bed and be in the surf in 5 minutes. It's stylishly decorated and the staff are wonderful. You must try Neeta's cur… More

“Can't wait to go back!”
I recently spent a short stay at the newly named August Beach House which is situated on the beach of Weligama Bay. Such a lovely house in a great location. Michelle was great with the last minute booking and I think the combination of lovely staff, stylish decor and one of the South's best surfing and swimming beaches makes this house unmissable. Can highly recommend.
