Laya Beach Hotel

An icon of luxury along the sun-kissed shores of Wadduwa, Laya Beach Hotel commands attention with its majestic views and refined contemporary opulence. Upon arrival, guests are welcomed into a striking lobby adorned with local art that encapsulates Sri Lanka's rich culture; the air is tinged with a blend of sea breeze and fragrant floral arrangements, instantly evoking a sense of tranquility. The hotel seamlessly merges indoor elegance with outdoor beauty, featuring expansive glass windows that open up to stunning views of the Indian Ocean. Signature amenities include a thoughtfully designed outdoor pool and a private beach area for an immersive seaside experience, while the in-house restaurant tantalizes guests with a menu of local and international cuisines beneath an enchanting starry sky.

Explore the Local Area

Situated just a 35-minute drive from the vibrant town of Bentota, Laya Beach offers guests access to some of the area's most enchanting attractions. Nearby, the historic Richmond Castle and the serene Kalutara Bodhiya beckon for exploration, while the lively South Bolgoda Lake offers opportunities for fishing and boating, only 3.5 km away. For those inclined towards further adventures, the coastal gem of Hikkaduwa lies approximately an hour's drive to the south, delivering vibrant coral reefs and lively nightlife. The nearest airport, Ratmalana International Airport, is just 17 km from the hotel, making for seamless transfers and easy accessibility.

Room Information

Laya Beach boasts 40 elegantly appointed rooms, each ranging between 280 and 420 sq ft, designed for comfort and sophistication. Every room features an inviting sofa, air conditioning, a desk, and an en-suite bathroom with opulent marble finishes. Private balconies offer breathtaking sea views, while modern conveniences such as flat-screen cable TVs, free WiFi, and daily room service ensure a thoroughly enjoyable stay.

Room Upgrades

For those seeking added luxury, the hotel offers upgraded room types including Deluxe Suites (420 sq ft) which provide expansive living areas along with enhanced terrace spaces overlooking the ocean. Superior Rooms (350 sq ft) offer more personal terraces with plush seating; both options are meticulously designed for both relaxation and atmosphere.

“Located on a peaceful beachfront easily accessible from the main road and railway, this hotel presents an elegant stay in Wadduwa, particularly for families. I think that the private beach area and multiple pools, including both outdoor and indoor options, are a real advantage, as is the availability of both buffet and à la carte dining. For a relaxed vacation with convenient amenities, this could be an attractive option.”
