The Blue Water Wadduwa

The Resort and Its Setting

The Blue Water Wadduwa sits directly on the beachfront in Wadduwa, a fishing town roughly 35km south of Colombo along Sri Lanka's southwest coast. Accommodation is furnished for longer stays, in keeping with standard timeshare expectations, and the setting makes the most of Wadduwa's warm Indian Ocean waters and relatively uncrowded beaches compared with busier strips further south.

The Area and Things to Do

Wadduwa itself is low-key: a working coastal town where fishing boats share the shoreline with small guesthouses and resorts. From here, Bentota Beach is about 20km away, well known for water sports and river safari tours along the Bentota Ganga. Colombo, Sri Lanka's capital, is roughly 35km north and worth a day trip for its colonial-era buildings, museums and markets. Further afield, Galle Fort — a UNESCO World Heritage Site with Dutch-era ramparts and boutique shops — lies about 115km south along the coast road, while inland routes lead to Kandy, the hill-country cultural capital, and the Sinharaja Rainforest, a UNESCO-listed reserve known for birdwatching and nature walks. Most of these make sensible day trips or stopovers for guests basing themselves in Wadduwa for a week.

Selling or Renting a Week Here

Owners who no longer use their week at The Blue Water Wadduwa can list it for resale or rental on BidMyTimeshare.com. The marketplace works on a direct owner-to-owner basis: you set your own asking price, buyers and renters contact you through the platform, and no commission is taken on the sale — sellers simply pay a one-time listing fee to get the week in front of interested buyers.

Because The Blue Water Wadduwa is an independent resort, resale transfers are typically handled through the resort's own owners' association or on-site management rather than a central transfer desk at a large brand. Before agreeing a price with a buyer, sellers and buyers should both confirm directly with the resort: the transfer fee charged to move the week into a new owner's name, the current annual maintenance fee, and whether the resort or association holds any right of first refusal on a resale. These details aren't standardised across independent resorts, so it's worth getting them in writing from the resort to avoid surprises once a sale is agreed.

Practical Notes for Owners and Renters

Renters typically ask about beach access, room configuration, and how far the resort is from Colombo airport — useful details to include in a listing description, along with current photos.

Getting There

Colombo International Airport is the usual arrival point, with transfers to Wadduwa taking around 45–60 minutes depending on traffic.
