- "Excellent place to stay during kite holidays in Kalpitiya. By motorboat I was transported everyday to kite beach and back to the resort, the lunch was brougt at the beach too, the staff of the resort was extremely nice and very helpful, they have a kite center managed by instructor Mr. Matt, who is professional kitesurfing teacher. The food was amazing. Resort is situated right at the kiting lagoon. Recommended !" - "We loved being able to open the doors from our room on to our little veranda only a few steps from the beautiful pool and heavenly view. The food was amazing, so much so that we didn’t venture anywhere else for our whole stay. From amazing prawns to locally caught crab, both Sri Lankan and fusion dishes were totally delicious. All the staff were super friendly and helpful. We were able to have personal yoga sessions with the Chef’s uncle (who was an expert teacher and put us through our paces!) and also gave my husband an amazing massage. Although we were not kite surfers we really enjoyed our stay - totally relaxed and were very sad to leave!"

- "Wonderful colonial style hotel on the bank of the river away from the town. Very peaceful and calm. The ambiance and decor of the main reception and lounge area was excellent. Large pool with plenty sun beds. The chalet was well appointed, with lots of thought going into the small details. The bed was very comfortable and the "open air" toilet / shower area was quite unique. We had dinner in the evening which was a set meal. We used the "free" kayaks to explore down river to the beach which was very enjoyable. They also have free bikes available.... In summary, it's such a wonderful place that I just wish we had stayed longer, so relaxing. Ideal for the beginning and end of your trip, as it's not too far from the airport. I would not hesitate to recommend to family and friends."

- "Beautiful place, sweet owner and staff, will come here again!! Also: works with Kite Buddies, who's main trainer Mawfeer is a wonderful being and great Kite surfing teacher." - "If you're wondering about whether to book, just do it. You absolutely won't regret it. This place is so beautiful it's hard to believe it's real - it's like stepping into a film set. When you arrive, you are immersed in a palm grove where you weave your way through beautiful natural corridors to your very own villa which is totally secluded and private, with its own private porch in the heart of what feels like a jungle. The sounds and sights are breathtaking. Our villa was so beautifully designed, with sea shells for lights, textured walls, and the most incredible outdoor shower so you can shower under the stars. The resort itself has genius little pockets of design everywhere you look - tree houses, canopies, climbing nets, hammocks, a volleyball court, a pool, hidden seating areas, a social space. Real, wild beaches within walking distance with fishing boats and donkeys. The food was home cooked and delicious. But the highlight for us? The people. Hospitality and kindness like nothing we've ever had before. Thank you again for memories of a lifetime - what you have created is magical. We will be back for sure! ☺️🥰"

The Rascals kite resort is a fantastic place to kitesurf, with an amazing crew who are always there to help you. We were able to kite at several beautiful spots near the lagoon! And besides that, the resort was a nice place to chill, eat (really) good food, take a dip in the pool, have a drink and take yoga classes. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone! In any case, we can't wait to come back to The Rascals."

- "The breakfast was outstanding. The activities provided by the hotel was spot on, especially Kayaking. Would highly recommend this place." - "Luke the owner was superb! His vision for the property is truly inspirational. The atmosphere, vibe, service & professionalism was first class. Food was delicious. We gave the chef free reign to cook for us. We were not disappointed! Fish, prawns, incredible soups, curry, freshly made naan bread. We felt very spoilt! The property has been designed with love and care. The views! We loved all the finer details on display. The location is a knock-out! Right on the lagoon. What a magic spot to kite surf & do a range of water sports. Luke and his staff can cater for everyone’s needs. Can’t forget to mention the bed! Divine! Lovely linen. Gorgeous outdoor shower too. My husband and I travel a lot. And have stayed in too many places to count. What we love about Asari is the love that has been put into designing & creating this resort. It’s special. If you want to arrive to a beautiful unspoilt location with the warmest of smiles & services then you will love this place! Truly a very memorable experience. Sad to leave, but we will return. 5 stars!!!!"
