Everything was great

It is a beautiful hotel in a calm part of weligama. It is so calm that in the mornings you can spot monkeys in the trees next to the balcony. As well as squirrels , beautifully coloured birds and peacocks ! The rooms are very spacious and have a big bathroom. There's also an indoor seating part in front of the room . Breakfast is really good and healthy and can be taken on the flooting terrace while overlooking the sunrise over the river. Truly magical . Beach is only 10 min walk away. And not to forget : the beds are extremely comfortable! If asked, the owner will arrange airport transfer or other taxi services!

A very big room and bathroom with loads of space for our luggae. Every room has its own small porch with a table a chairs overlooking the beautiful garden and the river. The location was very convenient as well, very quiet, but only 10 min walk from the surfers beach and the restaurants. A great place to chill. They offer laundry cleaning services and scooter rental too :)

Mosquitoes. The latch on our door was broken, so we couldn't just pull it too - this was a bit tricky with the mosquitoes around.

We enjoyed our stay here, the room is nice and spacious, the bed was really comfortable, air con worked, nice spacious bathroom. Breakfast was good and the setting was lovely - right on the river. There was water refill and we were able to use the kettle in the kitchen which was nice.

Beware of mosquitos when sitting outside, close to the river.

This was by far the best place I stayed in Sri Lanka: spacious room, clean bathroom, excellent WiFi and great breakfast. And location.

Every room has it's own terrace with a lounger, chairs and table which is perfect to spend the hot hours of the day in the shade. Rooms are equipped with AC and fan and are spacious and cozy. Beds have a mosquito net so you can have a peaceful sleep. The beach is a little more than 5min walk from the property. We enjoyed that the guesthouse was right next to the river where we saw some birds and wildlife. Breakfast varies and is a good start for the day. We booked for one night and stayed ten, because we liked everything so much.

The location is great. Cozy jungle garden, quiet and peaceful. A lot of shadow, good to spend time on the terrace. The room is nice and clean, spacious. The bad is comfortable, air conditioner works properly, blackout curtains. Few minutes from all the places you may wanna visit in weligama (2-7 mins by bike or 7-15 by foot). The owner and his family works there and they are extraordinary hospitable and cheerful. You literally feel the warm they share greeting you sincerely every day.

Everything! we booked one night and liked it so much stayed 3. All the family were so helpful and welcoming, helping us arrange transport and cooking delicious breakfasts! Answering all our queries and super responsive. We had a large, cool, spacious, family room with a terrace overlooking the river. the aircon worked really well and we also had a fan. the beds were large and comfy, the bathroom was also large and everything was spotlessly clean. it was really peaceful having breakfast on the floating platform, lots of interesting nature to see as well daily life going by on the nearby road. Thank you to Ravindu and all the family for a brilliant stay!

The location was so nice and quiet, away from all the noise of Weligama town but still close enough to get to it if you want to go to restaurants and bars. What sets this place apart is definitely the owners, a Sri Lankan family with true Sri Lankan hospitality at the heart. The Mum, dad and son who run this place are so kind and welcoming. The food is done if the best I’ve had in over 2 months in Sri Lanka besides my own family (I am half Sri Lankan!) so be sure to choose the “Sri Lankan breakfast” option in the mornings. This place is a real, authentic gem in the south coast.

All was good, if we had problems, Ravindu helped us to solve them. My friend had a problem with ear, insurance doctor didnt help good. Ravindu recommended another one, who solve the problem and cleaned ear.

Ravindu's family are the best hosts. This place with a soul. We had amazing breakfast and had a choice between different types (local, western, bowl). Breakfast serves on the platform that is on the river with a perfect view. Monkey, birds, nature are everywhere in the garden. Each room with big terrace. We met new friends and had a great barbecue, that Ravindu cooked. Internet wi-fi is stable and its was enough for work (video conferences). Ravindu helped us a lot, thanks him, with taxi, rent motorbike and even with car rent to go to Ella and other things. You can also buy coconut right there for normal price. And after they can cut it for white pieces that inside. We stayed in this place everytime when we returned back to Weligama and it was the best choice. The location is good to beach 7 min, and close to supermarket and fruits point. Fridge is not in every room, but you can use main big fridge on the first floor.

Nothing. It was perfect.

Luvi Lucas is in the most beautiful & amazing setting next to the river. The photos dont do it enough justice. You even have monkeys swinging through the trees next to your balcony, 2 very cheeky dogs and lots of other wildlife coming ang going from this perfect river setting. There is a floating dining area as well. The place is everything that you could ask for. The hosts are really really friendly and they cannot do enough to help you. Lovely people!!! Its a 2 minute walk to the beach and a 5-10 minute walk or 2 mins on a scooter (hired at the apartment for £3.50 a day) to the town. Restaurants are within walking distance for the evening or you can eat at the apartment. There is nothing at all to fault Luvi Lucas. Perfect!!!

This has been one of the best guesthouses we have stayed in over the last 1.5 months in Sri Lanka. The room is really spacious, and also has a big bathroom and a terrace which faces directly onto a really nice garden and with a view of the river. The family that run it are absolutely lovely - kind, friendly and genuine. We loved the breakfasts. There are three options but we always chose the smoothie bowl option with banana + papaya or banana + pineapple smoothie, as it was a delicious and healthy way to start our day. We also had veg curry for lunch, which was very tasty and good value. We hope we'll be able to come back here, as we felt totally at home.

The family of owner were so kind and helpful. They always smiled to me. I felt like I became a member of this family. The room is clean and simple. The villa is located in front of river. So the view was nice. You can have a breakfast on floating restaurant. I could get the information for various activities. (surfing, yoga, cooking class..etc) Specially, the owner took care of me a lot. I was so thankful for him. :) I will stay in here again on next visit.

Everything was good.

The location is good enough, all markets, shops, cafe and restaurants are nearby. We gained convinient appartment with a beatiful lake view. The host was friendly, advised us several good places for dinner. The hygiene is excellent, the room was clean, fresh and cozzy. It was much more than we waited to have, even better than on photograph. We really enjoyed our Stay, I think it was one of the best place we have. Absolutelly reccomend.

When we arrived, half of the lights were not working. They repaired it quickly but it's something which should be checked before we arrive. It would be great if the host propose a few drinks from the fridge. As they have a restaurant as well, I was expecting to be able to order a beer or a drink. But it was not possible.

The location along the river is really great. We had one of the room at the 1st floor. They are bigger and newer than those on the ground floor. The view from the Terrasse is better as well. You can choose different breakfast which is great. But it's not big. Just enough to start the day!

I liked the location - peaceful and quite , the guest house itself - very clean and neat , breakfast - very delicious and nutritious, and the hosts - very friendly and nice people. BTW, if you want to stay for a long period , to work remotely , do not hesitate - the environment is quite and Wi-Fi speed is good to support video conferences :)

We loved the tranquility and calmness of this backwater property. it was clean , comfortable and perfect for our needs . Everyone was lovely and so hospitable, A lovely Sri Lankan experience away from the Western beach zone , which is still only a short walk away . Great breakfast too .

Luvi Lucas is a very calm and relaxing place next to the river, but still close to the busy part of weligama. The rooms are big with a good bathroom and a warm shower. The Breakfast is very delicious and you can eat it on the floating boat. Everybody at Luvi Lucas is super kind and helpful !!
