Holiday houses in Arugam Bay

We had a great few days at Adams’s place. Brilliant host and easy checkin, really close to town and all amenities. Great for surf spots and we saw a few elephants out of town. Oh and importantly for me, the AC is utterly silent. Would definitely stay again 😎

Grande propriété dans la nature au bord de la plage (très belle). Jardin arboré avec une grande piscine. Climatisation dans les chambres mais pas dans les espaces de vie (ventilateur). Gardien très gentil. Il y a un chenil avec deux chiennes adorables. Douches top. Pas de cuisinier mais un supermarché à quelques kilomètres ainsi que des spots de surf. Seul bémol l'odeur de l'enclos des vaches à côté du chenil peut-être désagréable a certains moments de la journée.

Absolutely loved our stay here, felt like home right away. Spent many hours chilling on the outside sofas which are very very comfy. Had everything we needed with the kitchen and big fridge-freezer. Marie was amazing, gave us great tips for elephant & croc spotting (we saw loads just cruising around in a Tuk Tuk). The garden was beautiful and peaceful with fruit trees and flowers and an outside shower to cool down. Staying here made our time in Arugam Bay a wonderful experience. Thank you!

We had a great stay at Azeers and Leann's place! They were incredibly friendly and went out of their way to make our time as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. The accommodation itself was spacious, beautifully furnished, and very well equipped — the kitchen had everything we needed, including a washing machine, which was a great bonus. The location was perfect: just a few meters from the beach, yet quiet and secluded, offering total relaxation. We would definitely love to come back!

Wir waren eine Woche zum Surfen in Arugam Bay und hatten einen sehr angenehmen Aufenthalt in der Villa. Gute Grundaustattung auch wenn man diese in der Küche etwas verbessern könnte (Mehr Teller, neuer Spülschwamm, mehr Geschirr). Schönes Feeling mit Terasse in Strandrichtung. Paradiesische Lage vllt etwas abgelegen. Ca. 30 min zu Fuß zur Innensstadt/20 min bis zum Main Point über den Strand. Man braucht eigentlich täglich ein Tuk Tuk um herumzukommen. Man muss wissen, dass ein paar Hunde auf dem Grundstück sind. Das ist aber für Sri Lanka normal. Die Hunde waren bei uns sehr zahm und anständig. Wir haben uns wohl gefühlt. Der Gastgeber war gut erreichbar und hat all unsere Wünsche erfüllt. Wir würden aufjedenfall wieder kommen und diese Unterkunft weiter empfehlen!

We booked with Malika because we wanted an authentic home stay experience in a quiet, rural setting and we found exactly this and more! From the moment we were handed a delicious, ice-cold, homemade lemonade on arrival, Malika made us feel like part of her family. Our 3 days with her were some of the best of our trip. The cabana is beautiful and rustic but still very comfortable with good facilities. There's no AC but we slept really well under the mosquito net and fan. The location is great - 3 mins walk to the beach (it's not safe to swim there) and in a quiet corner of Panama village. We spent our days walking on the beach and exploring the friendly village. Our evenings were spent chatting with Malika in her kitchen as she prepared the most delicious rice and curry dinners. Malika also arranged a safari for us to Kumana national park. We invited her and her family to join us and it was a very special day out Thank you for everything Malika! We had the best time & we'll miss u

My partner and I stayed for a week at Pasindu's place. The place itself is beautiful. It is within a large garden with lots of greenery as well as some adorable pets. The bed is comfortable and the room is large. The location is about a 15 minute walk from Arugam Bay. It is an easy walk and much quicker on a scooter. It is a much quieter area than Arugam Bay itself, so nice if you're looking for a peaceful stay. Pasindu and his partner Annie are fantastic hosts. They were incredibly responsive. Any issue or question we had was dealt with immediately. Pasindu also is a surf instructor. We took two lessons with him which were both amazing. Thanks for having us!!
