We stayed at Whiskey Point during low season and for two nights we had the place all for ourselves. The atmosphere was awesome and despite of staying only for three nights, we felt like family with the staff guys. They had really helpful tips for us. One of our kids best memories of the entire trip is making Pizza in the wood fired pizza oven at Whiskey Point. The Pizza by the way was really good.
I also imagine this to be a nice and quieter place during high season compared to Arugam Bay. At the same time Arugam Bay is only a short TukTuk ride away and easy to reach for a snack or surf session. We would definitely come back

World away from busy world. I love the destination. One of the best location I've visited in Sri Lanka. Superb. Kudumbigala Temple, Okanda Dewalaya, Kumana Bird Sanctuary, Yala east national park. Lovely beaches and lagoons and many more places to visit and activities to do in Arugam Bay.

It's a place for beach lovers and surfers.
It's a place for beach lovers and surfers. Further not that spectaculair place to stay, lot is outdated and overprized.
For nature lovers is Kumana the place to be and for that reason you stay in Arugam Bay. One village further is Panama, with a little accommodation to stay.

It is a must destination for any traveller who is interested in surfing. There are shops to buy your needs and many more. You can find good restaurants where they serve meals at any time. Kumana the wild life sanctuary for birds is nearby to where you can arrange transport at Arugumbay. Apart from birds, crocodiles. Leopards. Bears and elephants can be sighted. Though this is situated at east coast there are places where you can observe sunsets as well.
This location is by far the best, most quiet and relaxing place you can find in Arugam Bay! The rooms are exactly how they look on the pictures; clean, stylish and spacious.
The hotel is located at a lagoon that you can enjoy from the restaurant and pool area; at one morning during our breakfast 50 wild buffalos passed, when you are lucky also elephants cross and can be seen.
The hotel has it own TukTuk that can bring you to the beach or city centre!
The owner and staff are really helpful and nice people!
The property is comfortable, beautiful and very well located in Arugam Bay. You have direct access to beach and is walking distance to restaurants and the main streets in Arugam Bay.
We were welcomed by Rinas, the manager, which since first contact was super friendly and helpful. During our stay the entire staff were very nice to talk with, ask questions, arrange trips and spend time together.
I really wish every hotel had a Rinas as a manager, he made our stay very enjoyable!
I had a wonderful stay with my husband, and I would like to give a special thanks to all the friendly hotel staff. The breakfast was delicious with an option for Sri Lankan or English breakfast . The location is great, it’s located near the shops, restaurants and beach. The swimming pool is very big, and really refreshing & relaxing! I would definitely recommend this hotel and will definitely come back here when we go to Arugam Bay again.
Room was perfect and everything I needed, good vibes, cute surf house, felt safe, and I love that they're opening up a co-work (great idea)!! Food and drinks were awesome, and the owners are SO nice and want to help with anything and everything you need (including help for surfboard rentals and local restaurants). I'm definitely recommending this place to all my friends that come to Arugum Bay when they visit Sri Lanka!!
Great 5 day stay for our family of 4. The team that run the hotel were really good with our kids.
Swimming on the beach every morning before breakfast was magic, the food was great, as was the bar and music each evening.
The room facilities were great as well.
Shout out to Murthala who helped out with anything we required, tuk tuks, safaris and advice on Arugam Bay in general.
We will be back!
Loved all our talks with the owners, the fantastic. Italian food and the cozy atmosphere In this little beautiful off the beaten track resort near Surfers paradise - Arugam Bay and the least visited part of Yala National Park.
The bungalows are beautiful and it felt like a home away from home for us so even though. it was a long ride from Colombo airport but worth it
We stayed in the triple room and it was super comfortable and spacious. The beds were very comfy and the fan kept us very cool. The decor is lovely and the whole hostel has a great vibe.
It’s location is absolutely perfect for anything you would want to do in Arugam Bay- it’s so close to the beach and great places to eat.
Highly recommend staying here!
The Spice Trail is a beautiful oasis in the middle of bustling Arugam Bay. The room was spacious and very clean and the whole accommodation has an eco-friendly focus with refillable glass bottles etc. Kasun and the rest of the staff are super helpful and friendly and we'd definitely go back if we came back to Arugam Bay.
The owner is super friendly. They arranged really successful Kumana national park safari and boat tour in lagoon. They have delicious breakfast, laundry service and even foreign currency exchange at the hotel. You can also pay by card at the end of your stay which is very rare in this area.
Little Lagoon is in an amazing location. On the lagoon edge and on the Main Street of Arugam Bay. The accommodation is wonderful! We stayed in one of the double room containers and it was perfect, such a fun concept. It’s within a really well kept garden area and the hosts are so friendly!
Best value hotel with AC in Arugam bay. We looked at several before deciding this one is the best for the money.
Silky smooth clean sheets, silent air conditioning and the manager was a lovely guy.
He helped us and advised us on our next move up the coast with great information.
We had an awesome stay at dreamy hostel in arugambay.The service was great and the room was very clean and comfortable .the owner is very very helpful and tried to help us evry single time and they got a coffee shop as well .we would definitely come back to this awesome place:)
The property itself was perfect, right on main break for very good location. Mo the host was very friendly and was always making sure we was okay and new how to get about etc… if this is your first time in Arugam bay this will be a perfect starting spot! Thank you Mo. 😎
Loved my stay at the Lazy bay. The facilities were incredible and room very comfortable with the air conditioning. The hosts Murshid and Fomi were super friendly and helped me with information and scooter arrangements. The place felt like home so I highly recommend it.
the facilities and staff are exceptional. the property is brand new, modern and very comfortable. the staff are welcoming and helpful. it’s a great location, quiet but close to everything in Arugum bay. I highly recommend!!
The staff was beyond friendly and helpful all the time. The property is perfectly located in Arugam Bay with many restaurants and shops nearby. The garden is really nice and great to chill outside.
A stunning property in a tranquil paradise. You would not think that you were in the middle of Arugam Bay. Staff and room were excellent. We were extremely happy with our stay here.
