Rustig verblijf op een toplocatie gerund door fantastische broers!
Pros:

Wat een zalig verblijf! We hadden oorspronkelijk voor 1 nachtje geboekt, maar zijn er uiteindelijk 5 nachten gebleven. We voelden ons er meteen enorm thuis.
De twee eigenaren, de broers Musa en Mufa, waren ontzettend vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Bij aankomst kregen we een heerlijke mangojuice. De kamer was eenvoudig, maar alles wat je nodig hebt, was aanwezig.
Het verblijf ligt in een rustig straatje vlak bij het strand. Op amper 5 minuutjes wandelen sta je al in het bruisende centrum. Voor ons was dit een groot voordeel, want 's nachts is het er heerlijk rustig.
Mufa regelde voor ons een surfles, een safari en ook een tuktuksafari. Tijdens die laatste gingen we naar een plaatselijke plas waar veel krokodillen zaten en gingen we op zoek naar olifanten die vrij in de natuur rondliepen. Dit allemaal aan zeer goede en eerlijke prijzen!
De broers zijn eerlijk en hun missie is om jullie een fantastische tijd bij hen te bezorgen. Bij ons is dat zeker en vast gelukt, en we zijn ervan overtuigd dat jullie hier net zo van zullen genieten!
Kortom: een echte aanrader!

Muy recomendable
Pros:

Nuestra experiencia fue la mejor de todos los hoteles donde estuvimos en Sri Lanka. Musa y Mufa son los mejores, te cuidan y están pendientes de todo. Nos organizaron todas las excursiones, el safari, surf y el bus para ir a Colombo, súper económico. No reservéis nada con antelación, ir al Cozy Sand Beach Hotel y os organizan todos los días. Sin duda, muy recomendable.

Cons:

Nos gustó todo.

Pros:

We would recommend this property 100%!!! We loved our stay so much. Mosa Mufa are such nice people and helped us with everything. they arranged a tuk tuk safari, surf lessons and a taxi to our next stop for us and everything was so much fun! the room was clean, nice and comfortable with everything we needed. They welcomed us warmly with a drink and sat down with us to talk for a while which felt very familiar. Thanks for everything!

Tolle Unterkunft mit schönem Garten
Pros:

Eine unserer schönsten Unterkünfte in Sri Lanka. Nette Bungalows, wir hatten einen mit eigenem Bad. Alles top sauber in einem wunderschönen Garten, wo man abends noch vor seinem Zimmer sitzen kann. Auch von der Lage top, ruhig eher am Anfang des Ortes, 1min zum für uns schönsten Strandabschnitt mit netten kleinen Restaurant.
Das, was diese Unterkunft aber so besonders macht, sind die zwei Gastgeber, die sich mit genau der richtigen Mischung aus Interesse und Zurückhaltung um die Gäste kümmern. Wir haben eine geniale Tuk Tuk Safari mit Ihnen gemacht. Krokodile, Elefanten und zum Abschluss den Sonnenuntergang am Elephant Rock.
Sie kümnern sich auch gerne um weitere Buchungen/Organisation.

Pros:

Nous avons tout aimé au Cozy Sand Beach! L’emplacement (à 2 pas de l’océan), la propreté des chambres et leur confort, et surtout les hôtes : Musa et Mufa! Ils ont été si sympathiques avec nous et disponibles : ils nous ont organisé un super safari et une session surf, c’était incroyable ! Grâce à eux, on s’est senties comme à la maison. Mille mercis à vous, si on revient au Sri Lanka, c’est certain que nous reviendrons chez vous!

Pros:

שהיתי 4 ימים בהוסטל והיה מצוין. הגינה יפה ופורחת והמקום שקט ונעים. שני האחים שמנהלים את ההוסטל מאוד אדיבים ונדיבים. נענו תמיד לכל בקשה וסיפקו מה שהיה צריך. נתנו לי לעשות צ׳ק אין מוקדם וצ׳ק אווט מאוחר בלי תוספת תשלום.

Cons:

החסרון היחידי הוא שאין מים חמים במקלחת. זה נפוץ בארוגם ביי, אבל קחו בחשבון מי שזה מפריע לו.

Ein super schöner Aufenthalt bei lienswerten Menschen
Pros:

Mufa und sein sein Bruder Musi sind super liebenswerte Gastgeber sie haben uns jeden Wunsch erfüllt.
Der Willkommens Drink war super und nach dem Surfen haben die beiden Wassermelone serviert.
Das Cozy Sand finden wir auch von der Bepflanzung sehr schön und die ganze Anlage ist sehr sauber. Die Preis Leistung stimmt absolut wir waren mehr als zufrieden und können es wärmstens weiter empfehlen.
Ein grosses Dankeschön an euch beide.

We had a really good time at cozy sand beach! the location is perfect, close to the beach and restaurants, but calm because it is not directly at the main road. our room was very clean and the bed was comfy. the hosts are amazing, they arranged everything for us for reasonable prices, and the breakfast was delicious, they even organized pittu especially for us.:) thank you very much again!

Lovely hotel with extremely friendly owners
Pros:

Very good value for money.
We were upgraded to a room with AC, which was very nice as it was very hot and humid.
The hotel is very quiet, but conveniently located close to the beach and many excellent restaurants.
The room was small and rather dark, but offered everything we needed (very good fan and AC, mosquito net), and the very nice outdoor seating in the lush green garden more than made up for it.
Even though our plan did not include breakfast, we were offered a wonderfully strong coffee every morning. The owners were incredibly friendly and helped us with whatever we needed (laundry, transport).

Cons:

The was some mould in the bathroom - almost impossible to avoid in this climate.
