“The place to create some of your best memories in Sri Lanka”
I really liked it here. You basically only live outdoors in the open community or dinner space and beautiful garden. The people there are amazing and so is the food. Susantha is a positive person who really puts in the effort to make everyday a good day and can arrange whatever you want with kiting. The other guests are very diverse in age and nationality which for me makes the best mix. Every evening there is a family dinner cooked by mamma and you can chill or play games in the community area or if you rather decompress by yourself, it is all fine.

Our stay at Susantha was amazing. Everything is run by locals with a lot of experience, heart, and genuine hospitality. Susantha is always helpful, and his warm personality and positive energy create a wonderful communal atmosphere among the guests. We felt very welcome and we are looking forward to our next stay!

“Amazing”
The place is amazing - proper vibe, proper cabanas and outstanding crew! Best kite place around the lagoon. Booked for 2 nights and extended for few nights more. Next time will book for the whole stay!

Sun Wind Beach Kite Resort is a place with an incredibly positive vibe. Spending a few weeks with Susantha's family is an experience in itself. Delicious homemade dinners prepared by his mom, a always-smiling dad, and Susantha with his unique outlook on life. More importantly, when it comes to learning how to kite surf, I couldn't have found a better place. Susantha is a passionate person dedicated to ensuring his team teaches you how to ride a kite and have fun doing it. They wouldn't let me give up when I was feeling overwhelmed, and eventually, I started riding the board with the kite. Huge thanks to the entire team: Susantha, Chamindha, Denniske and other friends for great adventure and helping me fulfill my dream😊😊

“Best place in Sri Lanka for kitesurfing.”
The family style dinner options are really good. The food is super tasty, and local. The host, Susanta, is very welcoming and has interesting stories. The day trips for kitesurfing are really good, and one of a kind. The Harlem rental equipment is the top of the line. It doesn't get better than this.

“Incredible, thank you Susanthe + Family :)”
Go here if you’re after a tight knit friendly family vibe. The single rooms are simple and come with a good quality fan to stay cool as well as a mosquito net. Mama’s cooking is the best in Kalpitiya, especially the pumpkin curry :) Susantha’s staff / family are all super nice and supportive even with beginners, don’t think they’re being standoffish they’re just not as confident speaking English. The island trip is highly recommended, an unbelievable desert island spot with perfect wind and flat water.

“Sensational stay at Susantha’s family-run kite resort!”
Susantha’s family-run kite surf resort in Kalpitiya is an absolute gem. The kite lessons are top-notch, and the trips to Putalan Island in the lagoon are pure magic—perfect wind, no crowds, and stunning scenery. The accommodations are cozy, and the community vibe makes you feel right at home. Dinner, prepared by Susantha’s mom, is sensational and a true highlight of the stay. This is hands down the best kitesurfing spot I've ever experienced. Highly recommended!

“Great location for kite surfing”
Sunsantha was a great host. The breakfast is nice and the organize kite trips which were very fun! Nice Kite Community! In terms of kite surfing gear they have good kites in my opinion but the boards are very old and not of good quality…

“It was hard to leave this place !!”
Susantha makes us feel like we are home, it’s welcoming, great vibes, we had the feeling to be part of a group from the very first day we arrived, so nice ! Food is very good and diverse from one day to another ! Place is close from the spot, no need to describe the lagoon, amazing spot especially for beginners !

Had an amazing time at Sun Wind Beach and would definitely recommend staying here. The lagoon is perfect to learn how to kite and Susantha and his team are great teachers and make sure that you'll have fun in the process. After kite sessions are also a reason to stay here; chilling, sharing the Sri Lankan dinners made by Subha (Susantha's cousin), discussing the wind conditions, drinking a few beers and making jokes ;) I'll difinitely be back!!

We had a fantastic time at Susantha’s authentic Sri Lankan family stay. From the first second we felt to be part of the family and everyone cared about the guests’ well being at all times. We slept in one of the Cabanas which is basic and has everything you need (most importantly a secure moskito net) and enjoyed the hammock with the view into the beautifully planted garden. We made many friends along the way, learned much about the country Sri Lanka and really enjoyed our evening activities and conversations with Susantha and the group. Thank you for the Amazing times - We will definitely come back!
