Lagoon view is beautiful; lots of nature viewing opportunity, including a crocodile resting on the other side of the water! Nadjim a great host.
Murali was a great host, very welcoming, and really good cooker ! His omelettes, juices and Sri Lankan dishes were delicious. It was a réal pleasure to stay at Ganesh Gate! We recommend at 100%!!!
loved the location, close enough to town (free bikes) but quiet beach front. Great hosts and staff, chilled and helpful, nice food, great pool and lounge areas
Amazing place, near the beach. The rooms have AC and are spatious. It’s located on the ´main road’ nearby all restaurants and shops, yet it’s calm and not noisy. The owner is so friendly. He arranged our taxi to the next stop and he and his wife cooked for us, after that we played a card game. We had the best time in Tropicana Homestay. I would also recommend the surfing lessons, we had the best time with our teacher Rizy, who teached us properly and cared about our safety.
My best hostel on my trip through Sri Lanka. Nalaka and his crew are great hosts. The included breakfast is delicious and they will help you find tours, surf lessons or onward travel. Great little social hostel. I extended several times because I enjoyed the hostel-vibe and arugam bay totally.
Good hostel, location and environment.
A great Combination of wonderful locals and happy guests. Everyone was in good mood at this good mood place. Brian and Tariq and Santa were great hosts, helping when needed. I was sad to leave the awesome atmosphere! Will come again.
