Swiss Bay Hotel & Resort-Arugambay

The hotel is absolutely new. Our room was spacious, fresh, and very clean, with a nice and well-maintained bathroom. If I ever visit Arugam Bay again, I would definitely stay here again — out of all the hotels in this price range, this one is the best! The hotel is run by a very polite and kind family who made us feel welcome. The location was excellent — on the main road, within walking distance to cafes for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and just a 10-minute tuk-tuk ride to the beach, but you can also walk to it (20 minutes) It was quiet at night, and we had a very peaceful stay. There’s also a lake next to the hotel, where elephants sometimes come to drink — a beautiful sight to witness. All guest rooms are located on the second floor. They also plan to open a restaurant soon on the ground floor.

Amazing location next to a beach. Loved resting in a hammock with an ocean view. Everything is clean and nice. Murali cooks really good. His food was very tasty. Uncle Sella and Murali were very helpful and great hosts. In two months we are coming back!

When we booked our stay at Eco Monsoon Resort, we did not expect to find such a gem! The hosts are amazing and made us feel at home the moment we stepped in. These are real people, offering their home, time and local knowledge to make your stay as good as it gets. All the food is prepared by the hosts - definitely real Sri Lankan cuisine at its finest here. The meals are wholesome, cooked with a lot of heart and soul; a mix of dhal, rice dishes, different roti, potato, veggies, fish, chicken and seafood, paired with fresh juices, proper coffee and/or chai kept us craving for more every day. Also, they are great at managing the spiciness levels and if you want to go all the way, you can. The resort itself is a very unique, beautiful refuge. It is authentic, charming & peaceful and provided a quiet and lush oasis. It is a place to enjoy, have great talks and get a good rest after a day of surfing or exploring the coastline. Yes, the surfing hub of Arugam Bay is a bit of a ride away, but that is part of what makes the place: Less crowds, more authenticity. Within a short distance from Eco Monsoon, there are two lesser-known point breaks that kept us entertained and let us enjoy some uncrowded sessions. So, if you're up for an authentic experience away from all the crowds, give this place a go. We enjoyed it - the unpretentious accommodation, the homely food, the heartfelt hospitality, and the early morning surfs. We'll be back. Thank you and see you soon.

This family-run hotel was incredible. The hosts were so kind and helpful - they drove us wherever we needed and helped with everything. The home-cooked food was delicious, with huge, satisfying portions that we looked forward to every day. We truly felt at home and couldn't have asked for a better experience. Highly recommended!

Owner and the staff are very kind people, full of joy and thoughtful. We spent the evening chatting together. They offer us the dinner and gave the best room since we were the only guests. Very good price, close to beach and authentic with hammock and coconut. Perfect for relaxing in the nature. Super recommended.

Location is prime, 1 minute walk to baby point, 7 minute walk on the beach to main point. 20 minutes toktok ride to up and down loctions such as puttovill point and pinuat farm. Advisable to take the AC room, you can manage the fan rooms but its much better to take the AC room. We asked to switch at half stay time from fan to AC room. The Manager and family were very nice , they took care of all our needs begining from colmobo pickup and return and ending with local surf points. I would definitely reccomend the spot.

Would you like to experience paradise? We did! Eco Aloevera Garden is a place where you may see see the beautiful empty beaches, wonderful sea landscape and such a unique atmospere! Great place to visit out of the tourist season - which we did, March was great choice. The owner and stuff soooo friendly, meeting all the needs. Local meals provided based on our preferences, so delicious! Great clean, cosy little houses in shady garden filled with beautiful palm trees. We just live it all :)

This place is a "pearl in the rough" ! It was like being in Bali twenty years ago with all it's rustic charm and eating the best Italian food out of Italy ! The owners could not do enough....the staff were friendly yet efficient. I celebrated a birthday there with a cake and beach bonfire....sublime ! And, a rarity, saw a beautiful Leopard on safari. Best birthday in 65 years !

They quiet houses of Lucky Bay are hidden away from the rush of Arugam Bay’s main road by an enchanting garden. Muhamad, the owner, made me feel at home throughout my stay, inviting me for tea, offering me some muffins and giving me daily advice about the local surf spots. The beach is also less than a minute away by foot.
