The Rascals Kite Resort

Great spot, amazing food and the best personnel !
Really good equipment and also a lot of delicious food.

Perfect for kite surfing with a boat shuttle to the kite spot. Nice chalets

What an incredible stay! We loved the communal meals, and it was such a treat to have both Sri Lankan and Italian food (and drinks) — my favourite cuisines! We bonded with really interesting people from all over the world! Everything was super comfortable and relaxed, even though we didn’t kite surf we had a brilliant time and loved the morning yoga sessions. Sunsets at the jetty were super special. Grazie!

Our stay was absolutely incredible. The location is beautiful, the staff is so friendly and helpful with everything. We did yoga in the morning on the dock which was so beautiful. We went kayaking with their free kayaks, we hung out by the pool, they gave us a free ride across the lagoon to the bigger beach, and we ate tons of incredible food!! Everything was better than we could have imagined- it was a great weekend.

Great staff, comfortable rooms and great kite instructors.

The Rascal resort is finely designed with a cosy integration in the vegetation. A huge swimming pool allow you to refresh after a long day or relax during a non kiting day. All the staff with Joana and Robi are kind and helpfuff and provide a five stars services. Ktting area is nearby and with an easy access. Last but not the least, the food at Rascal is delicious, with local and italian dishes.
I definitively recommend it and i will be back for sure. Many thanks.

Superfint, grymma kiteinstruktörer, god mat och extremt hjälpsam och härlig personal. 10/10

Lovely small resort and the hosts Johanna and Roberto could not be more welcoming and helpful. We felt like part of the family and will definitely be back! Food was delicious and the kite spot is awesome! 😊

Great place for Kitesurfing, with a unique friendly team. International spirit, (Simone from Italy served a great coffee). But also great locals kiters - they helped us perfectly with the rented equipment, this was also very good. We met also very nice people there, easy to get in contact with other travelers, organized dinners together - if you want …
Thx to everyone for great vacation at your lovely place.

The Rascals is the perfect place to relax and improve your kitesurfing skills. Joanna and Robi are fantastic hosts and we always felt welcome and well looked after. They took us to many incredible kitespots across different islands. You absolutely must go kiting at Vella Island and do a downwinder to Mini Vella. All their trips are accompanied by rescue boats so you always feel safe.

They pay attention to every detail, even deflating the kites slightly when we take a break so the pressure does not damage them. Every day they shared useful tips to help us progress faster, and the Italian dinners at the end of the day were the perfect way to unwind.

If you are looking for a kitesurfing holiday that combines breathtaking locations, well-organized and safe trips, delicious food, and a truly friendly atmosphere, this is the place.

We had a fantastic week-long stay at Rascals. It was hard to leave at the end as it felt like home!

The room was clean light and comfortable. The whole resort is very tastefully designed :)

It was a great place to learn kiting. The wind was good, it was sandy and shallow, the instructors used radios and the equipment was great. You take a boat out to the spot and it was a comfortable ride. One of us wasn't kiting and it was still nice to join on the beach to watch the kiters and pet the stray island dogs!

The food was amazing!! Italian ingredients are shipped from Italy and each night there was a feast. Highly recommend going full board to include all lunches and dinners. Pizza night is on Saturday, don't miss it! Breakfasts were also lovely with many options.

Planning to come back again in the future!

The breakfast was fine, however for coffee you need to pay extra…

This is a purpose built kite surfing destination property featuring amazing facilities and incredible, welcoming and encouraging staff. I can’t imagine a better place to learn to kite surf. The food is very very good but notably features Italian food (and authentic coffee!) given the owner’s origins- to note if expecting purely Sri Lankan local food (although they do include this on their menu). There are a spectrum of rooms including ones with and without aircon catering to a variety of budgets and desires. From the moment you walk through the gate you feel like you’re in paradise and part of a very special family/community. We are so grateful to have been able to spend time in this magical place learning from such wonderful, supportive and vibrant people.

I stayed at this kite resort for two weeks and honestly, I didn’t want to leave. From the moment I arrived, I was welcomed like family, and by the end of the trip, I truly felt like I’d been adopted into theirs. There’s a warm, down to earth atmosphere here that’s hard to find elsewhere, and it makes the experience so much more than just a kitesurfing holiday.

The hotel has a cozy, family run vibe with amazing food and drinks. The kitchen is run by the Italian Roberto, who prepares a delicious mix of local and Italian dishes that make every meal something to look forward to. If you’re planning a stay, make sure you’re there on a Saturday. Pizza night is legendary. It’s not just a meal, it’s an event. The whole crew gathers, the wood fired oven gets going, and the laughs and pizzas don’t stop.

On the beach, the team’s expertise is next level. They’re attentive, experienced, and genuinely passionate about helping you improve. Whether you’re just starting out or pushing into advanced tricks, they meet you where you are. Over my two week stay, they helped me elevate my kite skills more than I thought possible.

Whether you’re coming solo, as a couple, or with friends, this place offers the perfect balance of progression, connection, and local charm. I’ll definitely be back.
