We had a fantastic stay for 6days here at the beginning of our trip to Sri Lanka. Chose the Jungalow which was lovely, loads of space, comfy bed, large seating area out front and the outdoor bathroom is great. The atmosphere here is brilliant, very chilled, relaxed and friendly. Staff were all very helpful and happy to look after you. Breakfast & dinner are served in the bar area on a long table which encourages you to meet and get to know the other guests - we met some great people and had a great time kiting with them during our stay. Dinners and lunch are mostly typical rice & curry but were lovely and decent portions. Lunch was brought to the kite spot every day. You get taken by boat to the various kite spots. We kited at the “Dream Spot” & the lagoon. The Dream spot we had to ourselves and at the lagoon Rascals hut is at the top end with plenty of space. Hire kit was all new Duotone kites, Evos and Dice. We didn’t have lessons but the instructors and boat driver were all friendly & helpful. Overall a great stay!…

Rascals is a fab resort - beautiful setting, beautiful garden and very friendly staff. We turned up a day early (my bad) and they were very helpful in finding us a room and getting us settled in. We’re travelling with our 5 month old baby girl and everyone at Rascals, especially Hassiter, was happy to hold her during mealtimes (or at any time) which was really lovely of them. My partner Will had daily kite surfing lessons with Rimsan. Will (by his own account) is not the fastest learner but Rimsan is an excellent teacher and got him up and riding and a lot more confident. Would highly recommend him as a teacher. When you’re not in the water you can watch him and the others perform kite tricks. The food is delicious - you eat what you are served, there’s no menu as such, but it’s really good fresh food and there are veggie options. And the daily dessert is yummy... You don’t go hungry! Even though I wasn’t kite surfing I was more than happy to laze around the resort and use the pool. A couple of days I took the lunchtime boat to the kite surfing beach and hung out there. A beautiful beach and lots of fun watching the kite surfers. Huge thanks to Johanna for helping us organise our stay. I absolutely recommend Rascals and we will all definitely come back again. Hopefully our little girl will kite surf here one day!…

What can I say but the team at Rascals are the best My family and I stayed here for 6 days so that one of my son’s and husband could learn to kite surf The kite staff were really nice and provided loads of guidance and patience and both really enjoyed their 9 hour course The jungalows that we stayed in were so amazing with very comfortable beds and amazing outside showers with great AC and a lovely outside seating area. The team are so very friendly and nothing is to much trouble. Food is lovely and the pool area very comfortable Only one piece of advice - buy some alcohol in duty free at the airport as they don’t have a license They will also arrange other activities like diving, yoga etc I would not hesitate to recommend you book this

Super host, really felt like a warm welcome. Beautiful rooms with a shower outside between the palmleaves, or a bit more luxury room with airco. Lovely place, lovely people. Definitely recommend it. :)))))))))))))))))))))))))

The resort is the usual bare bones, or a little better then bare bones place which is the standard model in Kalpitya. Shared meals, slow internet, brownouts that sort of thing. You have to pay extra for A/C and fan, but without it the mosquitos will eat you alive. So far so average. However where the place really stands out is the kite school. They offered by far the best lessons I've had during my long and arduous journey to pretend I am young at heart. Final word, they do not have an alcohol license, but you can buy your own booze and store it behind the counter.
