Lovely people running the hostel, close to the beach and... very nice pizza ;)
SpainCan highly recommend! Comfy big beds, lovely staff and perfect location. We loved staying at wombats!
Switzerlandthe location is very handy, walking-distance from the beach, restaurants and not next to the main road (more quiet). The owners are paying attention to the food with a chef coming from Italy, yummy smoothie bowls, homemade pizza and Friday night music. The staff is very helpful, good vibes, more of a backpack atmosphere. definitely a good price for the size of the room including A/C and hot water.
SwitzerlandThere is a very good vibe at this place. This is due to the nice founders and staff. The food, in particular the pizza and coffee, are amazing! Yoga classes are led by a very knowledgeable teacher. The hotel is close to the beach but away from the main road. We stayed 6 nights and could have easily stayed longer.

FinlandThe managers and the staff help in everything, we were received like family! Cool vibes and perfect for surf!!
PortugalSurfing Wombats was the perfect home base to experience the surf scene in South Sri Lanka. Tucked just a couple minutes away from the main road, it offers everything you need to feel comfortable: rooftop yoga, chill areas, amazing food and of course, legendary hosts! You feel like part of the family as soon as you walk into the space...can’t wait to be back!
