We had such a lovely stay here. Michael looked after us very well with everything we needed. Great location right next to the beach and a short walk to the surf. The food at the restaurant was also amazing, really kind staff and a fun opening night for the season. Michael helped to sort out local transport and laundry too. Best hotel in the bay!

Great place on the beach, close to everything, each room with hamac, see view was great. I would recommend to everyone that wants to experience the real Arugam Bay, except for family with small kids due to the noise of the events at the hotel and around in the evening

“Clean room and friendly staff with Good Location”
Our stay at this property was truly enjoyable. The location is excellent, offering easy access to nearby attractions and a peaceful atmosphere. Maichale, the manager, was incredibly helpful and friendly, always going out of his way to ensure that we were comfortable and had everything we needed. His warm hospitality made us feel very welcome. The rooms are impressively neat, clean, and well-maintained, with a tidy environment that creates a pleasant and relaxing stay. Overall, the combination of a great location, exceptional service from Maichale, and clean, comfortable rooms made our experience memorable and highly satisfactory.
