Oasis of Feel Good Atmosphere

Reviewed By Julian W

During our three weeks Sri Lanka trip, this was definitely our favorite accomodation. Nice room, great facility, yummy food, very friendly managers and staff. After doing a bunch of National Parks and other typical Sri Lankan tourist things, we enyoyed every second in this oasis of calmness, tidiness and feel good atmosphere.

We had a wonderful stay at Waypoint. The ambience, the food and the service are top! Waypoint is located just a few steps from the beach and in the heart of Arugam Bay - the perfect starting point for all activities possible there. Definitely recommended!

Exceptional value. The owners are brilliant very knowledgeable about the area. The site and rooms are spotless. Rooms exceptionally comfortable. Located within easy walk of all restaurants and less than a minute to lagoon or beautiful beach. Probably the best valued place to stay in Arugambay. Thank you for a lovely week we will be returning…….??

Best hostel ever

Reviewed By yankw4nk

Awesome owner an staff amazing food with a good easy tab service, hammocks nice rooms and best shower I've ever had at a hostel, booked for two nights now have extended to 8, its also very sociable something about the layout encourages it I think and its a two minute walk from the beach and surf shops and despite its beach location the rooms and shared area are all sand free due to some foot taps and the staff, which is nice as you dont want it all over your room, also get the pizza

Grate place

Absolutely loved the place. Delicious food and cozy atmosphere. The food was freshly made and quick. The staff friendly and really polite. It was amazing to have a nice calm dinner at the front of the ocean with some chilling music.

Pearl of the Bay

Dishonnest Manager

Reviewed By Quen5in

Already in Arugam bay, we came in for a vist. The manager offered us a double room at 3000 LKR per night for 3 days on which we agreed. We were supposed to check in 2 days later, when we arrived he explained us that an "unexpected" booking came in, that our agreed room was no longer available and proposed to relocate us in another of his hostels. We went To check the new room which was not as good as the original one by far so we decided to take it for a shorter time. When he heard that we'd take the room for only one night he said that it was not available anymore. Long story short we ended up with no room at all. Between the visit of the room and the check in we exchanged many Whatsapp messages but he never told us that our room was not available anymore. I consider this as a really bad way to act towards customers and do NOT recommend this place even if we did not sleep there :).

Hotel Arugam bay Beach Inn

Incredible stay in Arugam bay

Reviewed By M8655EUjamess

This place is absolutely wonderful. Beautiful location right on the beach and just a few minutes walk to town. Rooms were nice and clean and for a very good price. But the thing that really stood out for me were the hosts. A kind and generous family that made me feel at home from the first moment I arrived. They let me try authentic Sri Lankan cuisine, taught me about their culture, and the two sons even took me out to a nice beginner spot to give surfing a try. I can't wait to go back to the hotel arugam bay beach inn and spend time with the new friends that I made there ?

Quiet place, but close to party places at the main road

Reviewed By 11Noah11

Stayed in the 10 bed dorm which was cleaned everyday. Lockers and AC available in the dorm and works pretty well (was freezing sometimes haha). Shared bathroom with 4 showers and 4 toilets (clean as well). You cann ask for breakfast as well. Had the local food almost every day and it was good! The hostel is close to the mainroad where you can find all shops and where you can go to the beach. If you wanna surf the mainpoint in Arugam Bay it will take you a bit to walk there (but it's still fine) Really enjoyed the calm and relaxed amosphere. The staff is really nice and take care about all your needs and wishes. They will help you wih everything! I felt really safe and loved my stay there! You will have a great stay there!

Lemon Tree Hostel

Jeden Augenblick genossen

Richtig nette Atmosphäre. Direkt am Strand (50m). Es wurde immer geholfen. Das Frühstück war sehr gut für einen Start in den Tag zum Surfen. Dorm für kleines Geld. Sehr nette Gastgeber und Staff. Alles hat gepasst. Danke für diesen schönen Aufenthalt ?
