Stay at Margarita Kite Camp — three different options, one kitesurfing soul
Whether you want to wake up with the lagoon at your door, sleep in a comfortable AC chalet or live the eco village experience — we have the right option for how you travel and what you're looking for.
Different stays, one kitesurfing soul
At Margarita Kite Camp we welcome riders from all over the world — solo travellers, couples, groups and families — who want to experience Kalpitiya at its best. The accommodation is part of the experience, not just somewhere to sleep.
We have three options spread across our camps, all within walking distance of the Kalpitiya Lagoon. Different styles and price points, but the same atmosphere: international kite community, sunset sessions, shared dinners and the kind of easy camaraderie you only get at a real kite camp.
Our three accommodation options
Each one is different. Each one is right for a different kind of traveller. Some guests want to wake up and see the water from their door — the kite already rigged on the beach, no logistics. Some want comfort after a day of pushing hard — AC, a proper shower, cold water that's actually cold. And then there are the ones who want the real thing: palm trees, outdoor shower, bikes to the village, chickens in the morning. All three are within walking distance of the kite centre. All three include breakfast. The difference is the vibe you're after. Some evenings someone fires up the wood oven and there's pizza. Some evenings it's paella. On no-wind days it's volleyball on the beach or cards at the bar. If you hear music coming down the path in the afternoon, that's the tuk tuk bakery guy doing his rounds — bread, buns and pastries, his speaker going before you see him. If someone in the group has a guitar, the bonfire goes late. This is a camp, not a hotel — and that's the point.
