This location is by far the best, most quiet and relaxing place you can find in Arugam Bay! The rooms are exactly how they look on the pictures; clean, stylish and spacious. The hotel is located at a lagoon that you can enjoy from the restaurant and pool area; at one morning during our breakfast 50 wild buffalos passed, when you are lucky also elephants cross and can be seen. The hotel has it own TukTuk that can bring you to the beach or city centre! The owner and staff are really helpful and nice people!

Offering a sun terrace and views of the sea, Sun Set Beach Hotel is located in Arugam Bay area. Guests can enjoy free WiFi access in its public areas, or arrange activities such as canoeing, windsurfing and fishing.

Wish I could have stayed longer! Dean and his team had been fantastic hosts in Arugam Bay. The hotel is a short walk to the beach and nothing could really beat that! Its also a short walk to the restaurants (appreciate this as there isn’t much noise as compared to the centre, most especially on the weekends). It had all the conveniences I needed. The room had perfectly functioning AC, the water pressure was great, and the team had went out of their way to assist with surfing guides, tuktuk and onward transports. The place felt very secure as someone was always there on property. Overall, 10/10 recommend for value, comfort and staff! Would stay here again next time.

Set in the beginning of Arugam Bay, close enough to shops and restaurants but far enough that it is quiet and peaceful, Little Lagoon Hostel is a 3 minute walk away from the beach. The property features air-conditioned private rooms with attached bathrooms and airconditioned dorm rooms with shared bathrooms.

Rooms and restrooms were clean. Breakfast was a buffet that rotated between western and local dishes. Extremely delicious food and I looked forward to it every day. The owners were very helpful arranging safari and surf lessons. Location is near the start (north side) of tourist road - close enough to the bars and restaurants but far enough that it is quiet and peaceful. There are also bikes you can rent for free which makes it very convenient to get around. Plenty of bags, chairs, and hammocks to hang out at the property. I think this made it really easy to make friends with other backpackers.
