We had an incredible stay at a cozy hotel in a beautiful tropical location. The food was absolutely delicious, especially the fish and curry dishes prepared by the talented chef. The staff was incredibly warm and friendly, always ready to offer assistance and share a meal or drink. We also loved the fresh water from the tap and the personal touch of the owner's story in our room. The hotel organized a fantastic Jungle Safari BBQ, combining a thrilling safari with a mouthwatering BBQ in a stunning setting. We left feeling relaxed and already planning our next visit. highly recommended!

The rooms were spacious and relaxing, with everything thought of, including a large bathroom and AC. The breakfast was delicious and served in a peaceful setting. The hotel's location in a quiet neighborhood was perfect for a tranquil getaway. I especially enjoyed the friendly and attentive staff who made me feel right at home.
All was perfect, couldn't ask for more!

Just a short stroll away from the stunning Arugambay Beach, this cozy accommodation offers a wide range of activities for guests to enjoy. The highlight of our stay was definitely the water sports facilities. We had an absolute blast trying out different water activities such as surfing and kayaking. It felt like we were riding waves like pros, just like professional surfers effortlessly gliding through the ocean. The experience was invigorating and exhilarating, leaving us with memories we'll cherish forever.
Renovations in progress.

As eco hipsters, we found our perfect retreat at East Surf Cabanas. For 4 days, we enjoyed being just a few hundred meters from the main street. The staff were excellent, going above and beyond to assist us. The breakfast here was the best we had in Sri Lanka, especially the avocados on toast. We also loved the surf lessons, with a friendly and patient instructor catering to all abilities. The jungle BBQ and safari experience was a once-in-a-lifetime event, with fresh fish, beers, and stunning sunset views over the lagoon. Special thanks to Raffiella for being the perfect host. We're definitely planning to come back next year!
Would definitely recommend this hotel.

The rooms offered delightful views and a great atmosphere. The breakfast was scrumptious and well-portioned. The location was just perfect, it was close to both the beach and the restaurants, which were all within walking distance. The communal areas were great, and the staff was friendly and welcoming at all times.
The accommodation was fairly open, which meant that it was not ideal if you're a light sleeper, as noises from outside disturbed the peace. The Wi-Fi could be improved, as the range was not sufficient for guests who needed to stay connected.

Pros of our stay were absolutely mind-blowing! From the incredible owners and smiling staff to the delicious food and clean rooms with fresh sheets. The outside shower was a jaw-dropping experience, and the jungle night BBQ safari was super exciting! We felt so safe and sound in this pleasant and quiet place with a family atmosphere. The breakfasts were top-notch, catering to both hungry surfers and those looking for a continental option. The surroundings were just perfect, with a short walk to the city. Can't recommend this place enough!
