United Kingdom, May 2023

Lovely place to stay right on the beach with a soft bed and delicious traditional Sri Lankan breakfast. The location was beautiful and it was convenient to have a driver arranged for pickup from the airport.

Not located in town, limited food options outside of the hostel. No aircon or water heater in the room.

United Kingdom, November 2022

The value for money at this hostel was excellent. The room was clean and comfortable, with giant fans keeping it cool. The location, right on a quiet beach, was perfect for relaxation. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, creating a welcoming environment. The food at the hostel was also amazing. I even got to witness baby turtles hatching on the beach during my stay!

Hotel breakfast could have been improved with more variety.

Such a fancy hostel with a private beach area! Loved their cocktails and the option to rent a bike. The staff made me feel so welcome, like I was staying at a 5-star resort. Definitely coming back!

Oh, and who needs a table in the room anyway? Who wants to eat in their room when there's a bar and restaurant downstairs?

Stayed at this amazing beachfront hostel with a private beach area. Loved the free parking, great restaurant, and the bar! Also, had a blast exploring the area on a rented bike.

Oh, let me complain about something. hmm. ah, yes, the property should have provided a personal butler to fan me all day long.
