“Home.”
THE BEST HOSTEL IVE BEEN IN. After 8 month of traveling Asia this is the place I felt at home. It offers everything I could ask for, Amazing and friendly staff with Siraj and the boys that made me feel so welcomed. Clean good rooms, amazing surfskate park and free skateboards to use ! Also they have surfboard rentals and everything you could possibly ask for. It’s not a question, if you come to Sri Lanka, come here. Truly thanksfull for every one there ❤️🙏

A very social hostel with a great atmosphere and a great staff. The manager is very kind and helpful, he gives us many tips on things to do on the area and takes us to surfing lessons in the morning if we want. In the evening we all gather around a tasty family dinner cooked by the staff. There's even a skate park in the hostel ! Good location at 15min by walk from town-center and close to several beach in a quiet stress ! Bathrooms and dorms are clean with fans above each bed or AC. I highly recommend this place !

Really friendly hostel. Siraj the owner was a great host. Very attentive and made sure the guests were always doing well. Meant to stay 3 days but ended up extending three times!

“Nice place, everything new (Sept 2023). Nice Crew and facilities. Relatively far away from mainpoint”
Personell, the lockers, the skate area, the relaxed vibe and the availability to bring you to places with the tuktuk. You can also rent a scooter and a surfboard that can be mounted on a scooter so that's really nice!
