I stayed at Arugam Bay Resort recently and had a really pleasant experience. The hotel is perfectly located right by the beach, which creates a calm and relaxing atmosphere from the moment you arrive. The room and overall property were clean, comfortable, and well looked after. The facilities were great, and it truly felt like good value for money. The fast and reliable Wi-Fi was also very helpful during our stay. Breakfast was a highlight—fresh, tasty, and well-prepared. Having breakfast with a direct view of the ocean while listening to the waves made it even more enjoyable and peaceful. Although we stayed only for one night, everything was smooth and enjoyable. The team was very helpful and also arranged a taxi for us from Arugam Bay to Ella at a very reasonable price. The driver was friendly, professional, and the journey was comfortable. The service was provided through Arugam Bay Taxi, and we were very satisfied with it. Overall, a great place to stay if you’re visiting Arugam Bay. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing beachside stay with helpful service.

I had the pleasure of staying at Asai Surf Inn in Arugam Bay, and it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The location strikes a perfect balance—everything is easily accessible, yet it remains calm and relaxing, away from the crowds. The property itself is impressively well-maintained and stands out for its cleanliness—easily one of the cleanest places I’ve stayed in Sri Lanka. The rooms are generously sized, very comfortable, and kept in excellent condition with consistent daily housekeeping. The breakfast experience was another highlight of the stay. There was a wide variety of options, from fresh fruits and pastries to well-prepared hot dishes that catered to different tastes. Everything was flavorful and beautifully presented, with attentive staff ensuring items were always replenished. The dining area was clean, spacious, and had a pleasant atmosphere, making it a perfect way to start the day. What truly made the stay remarkable, however, was the level of hospitality. The staff were incredibly warm and attentive, always ready to assist with anything we needed. Whether it was arranging tuk tuk rides quickly or ensuring every detail of our stay was taken care of, their genuine care and dedication really stood out. Having stayed in many hotels around the world, it’s rare to find a place where the staff make such a meaningful difference to the overall experience. Asai Surf Inn did exactly that, and I’m truly grateful for the memorable stay.

We enjoyed our stay at Lilly Pilly. The room was comfortable, and kitchen facilities were good! Only a 10-15 minute walk to the Main beach and shops. Would stay again!

One of few Arugama Bay accomodations that is not directly at the quite busy Main Street -> quiet sleep. But restaurants accessible, after short walk. Equipped kitchen, large garden. Host is really flexible and reacts in short time.

A hidden gem! My husband and me loved this place. The host is very welcoming and will help with anything. We've been there for a whole month and couldn't ask for more: fully equipped kitchen, sleeping room with air con, an own backyard with lots of palm trees, beautiful sunrises and a big deck upstairs. The house is actually at the beach, so you can watch the ocean anytime. Highly recommend if you are looking for a quiet and peaceful place.
