The location was great. If you don't want to stay in crowded Arugambay this is the right place for you. You have your own pirvate beach, a little cabana, good food at the restaurant and it is the cleanest hotel we have been in Sri Lanka.

Stay Golden has been one of our favourite stays of our entire time in Sri Lanka. Beautiful bungalows/apartments, the sweetest staff (our kids still miss them) and delicous and healthy food available from 8 AM until 9 PM. What we really liked was that there were always several families staying here and that the owners was also pretty much always around with their family, it created a nice and homely vibe in which we felt very welcome. Big thanks to Rihan and Angie and we hope to visit again some day!

We really loved our stay at Aqua Blue! The hostess and her brother make your stay at Arugum-bay the best!! They do everything to give you a pleasant stay and the brother shows you around in the wildlife. He has the best eyes and made us see so much elephants and crocodiles. The sweetest people we met so far in Sri Lanka.

We had an amazing time staying at these beautiful new bungalows in Arugam Bay. The place has a fresh, stylish design and was incredibly comfortable – perfect for relaxing after a day of adventure. Everything felt clean, modern, and thoughtfully put together. The host was absolutely fantastic – so friendly and helpful throughout our stay. He went above and beyond to organize a special trip for us where we saw wild crocodiles and elephants in their natural habitat. It was an unforgettable experience and truly a once-in-a-lifetime memory! If you’re looking for a peaceful, beautiful place to stay with great hospitality and a touch of adventure, this is it. We can’t recommend it enough!

we were supposed to stay here for 1 night but decided to stay another. the manager and the staff were so accommodating. take note. they prepared a big breakfast. we loved what they served. the room just needed a good lighting as the yellow light doesnt suit well the room especially if youre little blind in the dark. but apart from that all is well here

    We were so lucky to stumble across Riva del Sole. Bhagya and the staff were amazing in accommodating our last minute booking for a family of four. Our room was spacious, clean and super peaceful amongst the gardens. The staff helped us organise scooters, lagoon safaris and a tuk tuk to go and see elephants. We loved it so much here we booked an extra night. Would highly recommend for families!

    Lovely small hotel with air conditioned rooms with fridges. Bashir and team made us feel very welcome and went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed, in addition to helping with Tuktuks and various questions. Breakfast was excellent and went until 11. We were located at the end of the strip which was perfect for us as we were happy to walk in and wanted to be out of the party scene. Arugam was a fun location with plenty of buzz for our teenagers along with getting in some good surfing.
