Family dinner quite sad , just put some plates on the table and that's about it.

Nice dorms with AC and nice common area

- Exceptional hospitality. Eranda, Hash and Vidush did their best to make my stay pleasent and memorable. - very cute dogs

The wet soggy cushions in the common area. Overpriced beers.

Clean beds and bathrooms. Very social hostel. Tasty and cheap family dinner.

Stayed in August 2024

AC was only on in the dorms from 7pm - 7am and the rooms got very hot during the day which made any napping during the day pretty grim - there was no control of the temperature of the AC during the time it was on so one evening it was on 20 degrees all night and everybody in the room got cold and had to put jumpers on etc but the next night it was on 24 and it was much better.

Staff were extremely welcoming and friendly. There is a great social area and family dinners hosted each night for a reasonable price so a really good place to meet people. They offer a variety of tours also (albeit we didn't do any personally). The rooms are a good size so there is space to move around and sort out bags etc. Free water refill and space to dry towels/clothes etc.

No faults

Great vibe and wonderful freindly staff. Great hostel with large dormitory rooms and fab air com and was spotless and well maintained. Cool garden chilling area and two minute walk from beach. Crocodile tour and sunset was awesome. Great value for money and highly recommend. Thanks to all the staff.

Nice place, met cool people and super close to beach

Stayed in January 2024

the host was really nice and the rooms were comfortable and clean. unfortunately there were no other people because we have been there in the off season but I think with a bunch of people it's really funny

Cheap price with best location

Stayed in November 2023

Lots of animals and bugs in the room due to shoddy construction work/tiles. Shower room was big but no hot water.

Good value for money. Jay the host was fun and entertaining. We went out for drinks on the first night. Room was okay - air conditioning and fan worked well.

Stayed in November 2023

No mosquito nets. Poor and same breakfast every day, no tea or coffee. Poor cleaning (stayed for 4 nights, during this time no bath cleaning at all). Also there are volunteers in the hostel, who are supposed to help the guests. Some of them, though, were rly very rude and impolite (ex. Israeli girl). The hotel manager should maybe explain them how to work and communicate.

Quite modern and comfortable hostel (for Sri Lanka), comfy beds, good AC, drinking water available. Close to the main beach.

It wasn’t very clean.

The location is great, super close to the beach and nice restaurants. Friendly staff and great place to meet other (solo) backpackers!

The whole Hostel does look messy. They should definitely improve the cleanliness, especially the kitchen.

The owner is a very nice guy and is great in creating a social vibe. Private rooms have an AC and are very big. They also have a Water refill station for free.

The breakfast could definitely be improved (a little bit more variety). It would also be nice if it could be a bit earlier (on the blackboard it was announced for 8 but it was almost never ready before 8:45).

Very social hostel, but you can also find your own space if you just have an evening where you want to be on your own. We were staying in a private room, which was very spacious and clean with a very good working AC. The family dinner was delicious and a very fair price. The staff is lovely!!

Such a cool place, in the perfect location. The sea is just around the corner! Rooms are super clean and comfortable and Jin takes very well care of everything and everyone. I really enjoyed my 3 days stay there and will definitely ome back. Highly recommended!

Stayed in December 2024

There’s no possibility of having breakfast there.

Rooms are big, with A/C and fan, bathroom is also big. It has lockers inside the room. Staff is nice, friendly and helpful. I stayed in low season so it was very quiet.

Stayed in October 2024

The place is dirty and it's super noisy. You have A/C but they don't allow you to have the remote control in the room. They regulate the temperature and leave. Indeed, the A/C is only open from 7pm to 9am. The rest of the day the room is super warm. Don't expect too much.

Nice location a few minutes from the beach

Stayed in August 2024

Great curry and rice evenings, super helpful at arranging transport and activities

Stayed in August 2024

Over all, there were some things that could be better maintained. Coffee machine was broken throughout our stay. While they promised to fix it, I don't really believe it was their priority. Same applied to the free bicycles. The activities are promoted heavily and the price/quality is not particularly great. But not particularly bad either, as this is the case in all of Trincomalee.

Good place to meet people. Comfortable common area were you can order breakfast, family dinner and drinks. Family dinner was very good! Spacious private room with AC. They offer trips and activities. Staff very friendly.

Stayed in August 2024

Nothing!

So close to the beach, restaurants and yoga studio. Plenty to do during the day, the hostel has a few of activities written on the board that you can do around the area. In the afternoon/evening it becomes very social. Don’t miss out on the family dinner every night for 1000Rs, bloody delish and everyone gets into it. I made heaps of friends and felt at home. The owners are so awesome and will make sure you have a good time! The rooms are good! Spacious and comfortable, the AC is a life saver at night. If you go to bed early, you can’t hear people which is good! Perfect night sleep every night.

Stayed in August 2024

The staff really isn’t helping! So lazy and doesn’t want to help for anything (organising activities or get cash from an ATM, toilet paper and so on). They are just there not doing anything tbh..

The people staying there were nice but apart from that nothing positive to say.

Stayed in August 2024

Super good experience! Good people, good staf, good place near from everywhere and good plans!

Stayed in July 2024

Great hostel and staff

Stayed in May 2024

- the bathrooms were not really clean (couldn’t see yourself in the mirror) - had to ask for toilet paper pretty much everyday - A/C is only in from 7-7 (no one really wants to be up that early, someone just comes into the room and shuts it off (but in the staff room it’s on all the time)) - some of the staff was quite drunk and made some of us feel a little uncomfortable - beds not really comfortable - 2 big dogs are on the property that could be quite scary when entering the property.

- offering activities and family dinners - social vibe - location is nice, just 3 min to the beach All in all good if you’re rather looking for a party hostel and are okay with less comfort I’d say

Stayed in June 2024

Me and my friend had organised with the hostel to do their dolphin sunrise tour so we were told to wake up at 5:30 am and so the next day we woke up at 5:30 am and none of the staff were awake to take us. We went to bed early the night before in order to wake up early for the dolphin sunrise tour but we couldn’t go to sleep because there was so much noise in the common area caused by the staff who joined the guests who were partying outside.
