Amazing location, comfortable stay, super helpful people. I loved my stay there. They have canoes and bicycles for guests to use for free. It’s so beautiful to wake up in a forest next to a lake and canoe for thing in the morning. Morning view on the lake is magical, don’t miss it!

During my stay at New Amadeo Beach, I was thoroughly impressed by the exceptional hospitality showcased by their staff. Their kindness and friendliness created a welcoming atmosphere, making every guest feel valued and respected, regardless of whether they were locals or foreigners. As a local tourist, I appreciated being treated with the same warmth and consideration as international visitors. This inclusive approach truly made my experience memorable, and I highly recommend this hotel to anyone seeking genuine hospitality

The location is perfect. It's just 1 min walk to busstop, beach and ATMs. They have mosquito net as well. I was there for the new year, so the owner offered me the traditional breakfast (homemade). I enjoyed my stay there.

All hostels in Hikkaduwa

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.
