Proximité de la plage et des restaurants, boutiques Endroit très peaceful, bonne ambiance Belle plage Lits propres et confortables Chambres bien aménagées Personnel adorable et très serviable
Odeur d’égout forte dans la salle de bain Le café au petit déjeuner n’est pas très bon

Locatie was echt top, beter hadden we niet kunnen wensen. We liepen vanuit het huisje zo het strand op. Ontbijtje met de voetjes in het zand. Bediend worden terwijl je lekker ligt te relaxen, voor een heel schappelijke prijs. Personeel uitermate vriendelijk, echt top. Echt leuke surflessen gehad vanuit hotel. Puntje van heel goed bedoelde aandacht, hier is veel meer van te maken. Mijn handen jeukte, maar had vakantie. Maak betere foto's want hier zit meer in. Ik kom terug! Arugam Bay, is ook gewoon echt een heel leuk plaatsje. Veel te beleven, lekker eten en super vriendelijke laid back sfeertje.
Niks eigenlijk, kamer was wat basic en klein, maar we hadden airco, een prima bed en een douche. Niks mis mee.

Located right on the beach but also close to the town centre. Generally v quiet.
Rooms were quite dark and basic.
6 / 10Average·Aug 2026
The location was directly at the beach, which was nice. The staff was very friendly and always providing the best possible help. They gave us a little room upgrade so that we had our own little terrace (because of check in problems) It was nice that the room had a small fridge.
Everything was a bit chaotic (check-in; the fan almost came off the roof because they forgot to put the screws..) It was always loud because there was a cafe/bar directly next to our room which was loud at night and at the beach they also played the music really loud. In general it had more of a hostel vibe and not a hotel as they didn’t clean the room while we were there etc. and it was definitely not worth the price (it might be due to high season though)
