    Great place with great vibes! Located up on a hill making it a bit separate from the main road. Yoga shale is a bit higher on a hill with wonderful fishermen bay lookout. Very pleasant owners and personnel, all welcoming and ready to help. Breakfasts are delicious! Professional yoga teachers with both active styles in the mornings and restorative/relaxing in the afternoons. A lot of various spiritual related activities in the camp schedule. There is a small shop with clothes and some other items made locally - very nice to support local craftsmen. Green territory with all available for you to enjoy ocean, sun and yoga🙏🌊☀️

    I had such a restful and enjoyable stay at Basecamp. Donna was wonderful as a host and as a yoga teacher. The classes were amazing. The breakfast was delicious and so nutritious and different every day. The staff were so friendly and accommodating. I would highly recommend staying here, as a solo traveler It was perfect. Rooms were spotless too! I hope too come back one day!

    Stayed here for a few days and had intensive days practising yoga in morning and afternoon with Donna. She made me get into a nice mode of work out, and at the same time very relaxed. Her yoga teaching skills are massive and all through my classes she was very attentive and made me feel like I also had good skills, her sessions was customized to my level ( yes I was here during low season and was privileged to have private yoga lessons). Nice surroundings for morning walks as well. The room was very comfortable and clean. Will be back next time, stronger than before 😜

    Had an amazing time at Basecamp ! Yoga lessons were great, sweaty in the morning and relaxing in the afternoon. Very nice staff and super good breakfast waiting just after yoga. Also a good planning with suggestions and social events, and lots of free time still.

    Amazing place to stay in Weligama, I 100% recommend it. Great yoga classes in the morning and evening, amazing breakfast, lovely rooms and a great vibe. Basecamp has a perfect location near the main surfing beach and is right across the road from a lovely beach for swimming too. Close to all restaurants and bars. The people who run it are great, friendly and very helpful when planning your day.

    Great place for solo travelers to meet others and especially the hosts are so lovely! Breakfast is amazing (obviously, as mentioned all the time) and yoga sessions are amazing. Little downside is the road nearby, but with all the upsides (also the view), I wouldnt mind it too much and always come back! :)

    I had a great time here, met some great like minded travellers, enjoyed yoga classes and great brekkie and hospitality. It’s not right in the middle of Weligama but I didn’t mind at all as it’s a short tuktuk ride away for or a good walking distance at night or early mornings :-) Rooms are well maintained, quite spacious and cool during the night (to me) I will definitely come back to this place when I revisit Weligama next time

    I had the best time at Basecamp! Lovely crew, amazing breakfast and the social dinners they arrange are fun and tasty. The location is perfect for surfers, you can walk to Weligama beach and it’s just a short tuk tuk ride away from the other surf beaches. Also I tried yoga for the first time and I loved it! Highly recommend!

    I had the best 7 days of my life at Basecamp. The place is uniquely located in Weligama with a stunning view and proximity to most of the cities around as well we beach! The staff is amazing, so professional, caring and lovely. Yoga classes were the highlight of my journey, every yoga teacher had its own unique style and knowledge. I enjoyed every class I took there. This place attracts great solo travelers, friends and couples. It was so much fun! And most importantly the breakfast was mouthwatering , creative, fresh and healthy. I'd highly recommend this place and I'm definitely going back to it 😊

    I spent more than a week in Basecamp, then went to explore another part of Sri Lanka and finally returned to spent the rest of my vacation (extra 10 days). The things which make me get back to Basecamp include: - Awesome yoga classes tought by very professional yoga instructors with great vibe. :) My favourite are morning sessions which are intense and make me truly enjoy shavasana at the end. There are visible improvements in my practice, despite the fact that I have been doing yoga for 10+ years. - Lovely people working in Basecamp which are really helpful and friendly (big thanks for Donna for being such a great instructor and host). - Incredible yogis who stay in Basecamp. This place is perfect for solo travelers like me. I meet a lot of like-minded people and have always had company to spend time with. - Delicious breakfast, dinners and other social activities organized by Basecamp which help you get to know other people and stay sociable. :) - Nice rooms which are very clean and have everything necessary for a comfortable stay. I do definitely recommend Basecamp for all yogis visiting Sri Lanka! I have been truly enjoying my time here.

    I was staying at Basecamp for 13 nights and it has been absolutely perfect. I loved everything about it; the rooms, the view, the yogateachers, the manager, the food. If you want to go to Weligama area I really recommend this place from my heart. I felt so safe and there is just so much love here. Easy to get to know people as there are a lots of workshops and dinners together, but also a lot of space for time to yourself if that’s what you need. Thank you so much, I can’t wait to go back!

    I joined the drop-in yoga classes for about a week.The yoga floor is a nice terrace with great view over Weligama bay. The instructors are usually changing from session to session, which keeps it interesting. all of them do a great job and were holding very nice yoga sessions. I enjoyed each of them. Namaste :-)

😐 Nice place to be however there’s a huge margin of improvement in a very important aspect. Me and my friend group went for sound bath, yoga classes, breakfast. One thing I’d love to see from them is some more investment towards Sri Lankan people. If this is already being done, I have not seen it and...
