    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 Further not that spectaculair place to stay, lot is outdated and overprized.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.

    The property is in perfect location for everything in Arugam Bay but away from hustle and bustle. The staff are lovely and welcoming. Rooms are comfortable and beds were great. The pool is a nice addition to have as not many places have them in A Bay. There is a small cafe across the road that sells the nicest little snacks which the kids loved using. Best donuts in the world !!! We had surf lessons that were organised by the resort with their own instructor who was fantastic. Highly recommended.

    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!

    Iqbal and his staff were very lovely and supportive regarding everything we wanted to do. He organized a lagoon safari and bikes for rent to very reasonable prices and gave us best advice what we could explore in the surrounding area. We ate delicious rice and curries and had some wonderful fresh juices. The location was perfect- right at the beginning of Arugam Bay, calm during the night and very close to the beach. It was a pleasure to stay with you!

    We booked two rooms, one with A/C and one with a fan. As expected, the room was very warm at night with the fan, next time I would not do without the air conditioning. The accommodation is very lovingly decorated and furnished. The location on the edge of Arugam Bay is very relaxed, but close enough to reach everything important in a short walk if needed.
