What an amazing place. Host is the most welcoming person I've ever met, such an amazing human being! We booked for 5 nights and we extended another 3 because we felt like home. Everyday were preparing breakfast (and everyday is different, delicious and abundant, also with homemade juices). We also had few dinners in and food was stunning! He also arranged a motorbike, safaris and taxi at very reasonable price! We have no words to express how kind and caring they were with us. The place is very handy, close to beach and all the restaurants, clean and well take care of, also very quiet! We highly, highly recommend it! No hesitation! Looking forward to come back to here!

Very clean, quiet & comfortable with easy access to the shops and beach. Our host, Nisha, was very sweet & even invited us to dinner on our first night where she cooked up a delicious feast! She assisted with a lagoon tour and laundry.

The room was very clean and comfortable. The outside area is relaxing with private chairs, a table and a hammock. The staff is really friendly and they clean the area the whole day so everything is very clean. We would stay here again :)

Location: The location is ideal.It's situated just a few hundred meters away from the main road (Potuvil - Panama) and the beach, giving you the best of both worlds. You get easy access to all the main surf points and town amenities, but you're far enough away to enjoy complete peace and quiet. It's the perfect tranquil escape after a day in the sun. The Room & Amenities: The room was fantastic—very spacious,spotlessly clean, and designed with comfort in mind. It was equipped with all the required amenities, and everything was in great working order. It truly felt like a home away from home. Overall Experience: I can't fault this place.For the comfort, space, and serene atmosphere, it offers incredible value. I would gladly give it a perfect 10 out of 10 for the room and overall experience. It’s a gem that provides a quiet, convenient, and comfortable base for your Arugam Bay adventures. I will definitely be returning on my next trip!

Such a nice accommodation directly at the beach. If you are looking for a little bit of quite away from the hustle in arguam bay this is the place to go to. Best to rent a scooter in town so you can be independently and explore all of the surroundings.
