    It's a place for beach lovers and surfers.

    It's a place for beach lovers and surfers. Further not that spectaculair place to stay, lot is outdated and overprized. For nature lovers is Kumana the place to be and for that reason you stay in Arugam Bay. One village further is Panama, with a little accommodation to stay.

    It is a must destination for any traveller who is interested in surfing. There are shops to buy your needs and many more. You can find good restaurants where they serve meals at any time. Kumana the wild life sanctuary for birds is nearby to where you can arrange transport at Arugumbay. Apart from birds, crocodiles. Leopards. Bears and elephants can be sighted. Though this is situated at east coast there are places where you can observe sunsets as well.

    the cabanas are right on the beach, you can wake up and walk straight into the ocean! the staff became our friends and did so much for us. the rooms are basic but have everything you need for a comfortable stay - including a variety of electrical outlets for many countries. cold water showers are a relief in the sticky, humid conditions in Arugam bay. location is ideal, on the main strip, near restaurants and shops. I came to stay 3 days and stayed 11, I’ll be back at the end of this week for an extra 3 days.

    We had a great stay at Dream Garden in Arugam Bay! The staff was friendly and accommodating, particularly the guy at the restaurant and the cook who were just lovely. Our room was decent, and we appreciated the comfortable bedding. The food was amazing! The kitchen makes their own pizza, and the cook is great at advising what to eat. The pool was nice, although the water was a bit warm due to the heat. The hotel is located a bit far away from the hustle and bustle of town, which was great for a relaxing stay.

    Iqbal and his staff were very lovely and supportive regarding everything we wanted to do. He organized a lagoon safari and bikes for rent to very reasonable prices and gave us best advice what we could explore in the surrounding area. We ate delicious rice and curries and had some wonderful fresh juices. The location was perfect- right at the beginning of Arugam Bay, calm during the night and very close to the beach. It was a pleasure to stay with you!

    Excellent place to stay in Arugam Bay! The room is spacious and clean and there is even a shared kitchen for everyone. The property is located at the end of town, but there are many great places to eat nearby and the hotel is only a 1-minute walk from the beach. Perfect! Plus, the staff is so nice and the vibe is amazing. The manager Deen welcomed us warmly and both him and the kind elderly man treat us like family. Can't recommend this place enough!

The location was perfect for the beach and the main area and was great to get to the surf as you could just walk down the beach to get there. We loved our room as well, big comfy bed, great bathroom and lots of space to relax. We will definitely come back if we are ever in Arugam bay again.
