    The lodges are on the beach between the palms and trees, the food is amazing, the stuff is really nice and welcoming, the owner is also very heartwarming and friendly. During the night you can hear the sound of waves and birds, really calming.

    The best breakfast during our Sri Lankan trip - delicious smoothie bowls. You can stay here just for them and it's already good value for your money. The rooms were clean, there was a mattress bed on the porch of every little house and also a hammock where you could lay down and swing. The staff was very nice too. They hook us up on a safari ride to the nearby National Park Kumana.

    The staff here are incredible, you immediately feel at home and relaxed. I initially booked 3 nights and ended up staying 7. I did the 4 days of surf lessons and they were fantastic. They also organised a safari for me. I will defiantly stay here again if I’m back in Arugam Bay. It was my favourite accomodation I had in my whole trip. The beach is perfect t swimming g and the sun loungers are so great to chill out on during the day when you’re not out and about. The mojitos are also fantastic.

    Big, clean room, new bathroom, table, hanging space, fridge, kettle, outside seating & table, 1 min walk to beach with sunbeds, shops, restaurants. Jazz helped arrange driver accommodation & surf lessons. Breakfast was delicious & plentiful. Hosts were gorgeous, friendly people! We saw elephants, flamingos, monkeys, water buffalo along the road each evening! Safari without the cost!

    Mohammed is a very friendly and accomodating host. He takes great care of the accomodation and the beautiful garden and surprises you from time to time with tasty pastries made by his mother. We booked a few trips (surfing lesson, safari, tuktuk) via Mohammed and everything worked perfectly. We enjoyed our stay a lot!

    Allan was a friendly host and made me feel very welcome! The room was quite large with a private bathroom and everything was clean. The place itself is really cool, a huge outdoor seating area and a kitchen where lodgers can cook. The staff are great - I had a problem with the sink one night and they were immediately able to fix it. There wasn’t aircon in my room but the ceiling fan was really powerful and with a big window it wasn’t too hot.

    Very well located, directly on the beach. The host helped with organizing our transfers as well as booking a "last minute" safari in Kumana National park - which has been fantastic! Great fresh fruits juices!

    We were so lucky to stumble across Riva del Sole. Bhagya and the staff were amazing in accommodating our last minute booking for a family of four. Our room was spacious, clean and super peaceful amongst the gardens. The staff helped us organise scooters, lagoon safaris and a tuk tuk to go and see elephants. We loved it so much here we booked an extra night. Would highly recommend for families!

    i have come twice to arugam bay and this is the nicest hostel i have been to. there is a lovely little garden and the rooms are clean and big. the owner of the hostel is fantastic! always helpful and goes out of his way to satisfy every request. you can take surfing lessons with him which are worthwhile, and he also helped us book excursions like the safari. i really recommend it if you are looking for a place that will make you feel at home.
