Super cosy little hotel with private rooms. Kitchen area was handy for making coffee and teas and even cooking dinner. Facilities were clean. Location was perfect as it was about a 3 minute walk to the coast or a 3 minute scooter to the surf. Pathum and Sineth were amazing host and can help you out with anything and everything in the area. Pathum also provides airport pickup, comfortable transportation in a car with A/C or in his tuk tuk, and can also help with well priced scooter rentals. It was helpful having a local be so eager to show us around and help us find the best of spots. Can’t recommend this place enough and we can’t wait to come back!

This is the best hostel in Sri Lanka. Beds are so comfortable and rooms while small, are very clean. I stayed in the 4-bed dorm and found it great. Amenities are great including pool, yoga and a roof top bar/restaurant. The hostel is very social but not crazy party vibes which is nice. Right near Doctors House for live music if you do want to party and a great beach for swimming too.

My stay here was amazing. The family that hosted me was so nice and helped me in everything I needed. The place is peaceful and really near the beach. I left a peace of my heart there, I hope to come back again.

Everything was brand new. And super clean. The manager was really nice and pushing social projects in the area. I can really recommend the place. There is a beautiful skatepark around the corner if you are interested in such things.

I originally booked the hostel for just one night, but I ended up loving it so much that I extended my stay by three extra days. The location is amazing, and there’s a fantastic beach club right in front. Everything is clean and spacious. They have a gate, so you feel safe 24/7, and you can even park your scooter inside the gate securely. The staff has been absolutely wonderful, Saman has helped me so much and has truly been incredible. I’m going to miss him a lot. Honestly, it’s the nicest hostel I’ve ever stayed at. Everything was 10/10.
