I stayed one night at White House & Seafood Restaurant in Hikkaduwa and had a lovely experience. The room was very clean, comfortable, and well maintained, making it a great place to rest. The location is excellent, with easy access to the beach and convenient options to walk, catch a tuk tuk, or hop on a bus to reach nearby tourist spots. What really stood out was how warm and welcoming the family was — it’s a genuinely friendly, family-run business that makes you feel at home. Highly recommend staying here when visiting Hikkaduwa.

This is a place for a great experience of being literally in front of the sea, chilling out with a drink while lingering on a confortable bean bag , watching amaizing sunset , having nice meals freshly prepared. If I 'll come back to Sri Lanka again I'll definetly come back to this place but having a private room this time, the dorm could be a bit uncomfortable since have not windows which make it quite hot and hummid.

All hostels in Hikkaduwa

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is 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 bit more.

Best hostel I've ever stayed in Sri Lanka!Comfortable bed and pillows, clean and spacious room/bathroom. Guys created a great atmosphere so you feel welcomed right away. Thanks to that everyone is kind and friendly to each other, which makes it perfect for solo travellers.
