Comfortable modern place in the heart of Arugam Bay
Pros:

Very nice modern, well appointed room in a quiet garden setting with occasional monkey visitors. The property was an easy walk to the beach and Main Street.

Cons:

There was no hot water but it wasn’t really a problem.

Tranquila, relaxada i feliç. M’hagues quedat 1 mes alla!
Pros:

La ubicacio! Un lloc tranquil, allunyat dels bars i del bullici dels centre, pero suficient a prop per anar caminant a tot arreu. Es respira un ambient tranquil. Estas en un pati ple de plantes i flors ben cuidades, precios!
L’amo es veia una persona molt tranquila i amable, cuida molt els detalls del lloc.

Cons:

Tot perfecte!

Perfecto para disfrutar de Arugam bay.
Pros:

La situacion y el jardin.

Cons:

Las cabañas sin aire acondicionado son calurosas y cuando te vas a la playa....tienes que dejar las ventanas cerradas para que no entren monos o ardillas...la verdad es que podrian poner algun tipo de reja para poder ventilar la estancia cuando no estas dentro.

Pros:

Exceptional and peaceful stay. Located in the peaceful Buddhist neighborhood, it’s just a short walk to the beach, restaurants, and bars, yet remains very quiet and relaxing. We loved spending the hottest hours of the day in the beautiful garden, enjoying the shade and tranquility away from the busy main road. The owners are a beautiful family who were incredibly kind. We would happily stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Arugam Bay.

Cons:

We honestly had nothing to complain about.
