At the hostel all rooms come with a seating area. We absolutely loved our stay here. Our host was quite possibly the most knowledgeable person we’ve ever spoken to. I would highly recommend coming. The food is incredible… they made us a complimentary evening meal and it was beyond delicious. The breakfast was one of our favs in Sri Lanka. We loved it here and would definitely recommend.

Located around 3.6 km from Muhudu Maha Viharaya, the hostel with free WiFi is also 4.8 km away from Crocodile Rock. The accommodation offers evening entertainment and a shared kitchen. I stayed here for two weeks and had a great experience! The place is super comfortable — the air conditioning, water, and Wi-Fi all worked perfectly the whole time. Both hosts are really friendly and helpful, and made me feel welcome from the start. One of them is even a surf instructor, so you can also take surf lessons right there at a very affordable price. Definitely recommended!
