Genuinely the best value hostel in Ahangama. Beautiful pool in the garden, great facilities and right by the Marshmallows break. Great yoga shala up on top for sunset. Owners are super chilled & let you hang out at the pool pre/post check in/out. Would 100% come back!

I stayed in a private room. But by far the best room I’ve stayed in hostels! The big bed was super comfy & the water pressure and air con was so strong (things I’ve struggled to find in Sri Lanka). More so the owners really make this place! It’s family owned, and you can tell they really care about their new business. Breakfast is lovely served with coffee/tea, fruit and different mains every day. They go above and beyond to help with any request you have. I wish them and their business all the best :)

Amazing Local Experience with a Kind Host I had an incredible stay at this hostel! The owner is exceptionally kind and helpful, always making sure guests feel comfortable and at home. If you’re a foreigner looking to experience an authentic Sri Lankan home-style stay, this is the perfect place. From the warm hospitality to the local atmosphere, everything felt truly special. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a genuine and welcoming experience in Sri Lanka!

We absolutely loved our stay here! The location is amazing – right by the water with a gorgeous sea view, and perfect for surfing. The rooms were super clean and comfy, and it really felt like a holiday spot. But the best part was definitely the staff – they were sooo friendly and made us feel at home right away. Such a great experience in Weligama! Definitely stays on our list if we travel Sri Lanka again!

JIB Hostel stands out as one of the most welcoming, accommodating, and comfortable hostels I have ever stayed. The owner, Jiny, was exceptionally helpful, providing valuable insights about Weligama. Her warm hospitality made me feel at ease as a newcomer to the area. The dormitory is spacious, and my bed was both clean and comfortable, offering ample room for all guests. The bathrooms are also large and well-equipped with necessary amenities. A notable feature of JIB Hostel is its restaurant, which serves a delightful array of Asian fusion dishes, including Korean, Thai, and Japanese cuisine, making it easy to find satisfying meal options. My stay at JIB Hostel was truly enjoyable, and I wholeheartedly recommend it to others.
