Salt & Sand Resort ★

Arugambay Roccos ★★★

"We(locals) booked this place as this is a beachfront hotel with good reviews. We booked 1 month in advance (25th Aug) & paid the total amount (USD80 for DBL B&B) as well. But less than 1 week from the day of arrival(28th Sep), they called & informed that they have mistakenly overbooked the hotel and can't accommodate us anymore. I find this highly suspicious as the booking is done via their website, which shows the availability of the rooms. Some hotels tend to do this when they receive a large group of tourists. They tend to cancel the local's booking to accommodate tourists when it was the locals who helped them during the pandemic & economic crisis. They suggested some of their own places as compensation, but those were subpar compared to this place, so we refused ( USD 30 : USD 80) Anyway, i would not recommend this place to anyone, especially if you are a local."

Asai surf inn Arugambay ★★★

"Everything be good , good price for motorbike , safari ,surf school . Everything what u need"

Hotel Alaskabay Arugambay ★★★

"Great experience here with a group of 17 family members. Staff were super and did everything we asked of them. The lift was a little noisy as it stopped at each floor which was a bit irritating and when I reported it to management, they had the very next day a team of technicans call to the Hotel and sort it all, brilliant service. Thanks to Yuri and Haroon in particular for looking after us so diligently, a great team of people working in this Hotel!"

Surf Gangs Arugambay ★★★

"We came back from our trip a couple of days ago and would like to express our warmest thanks for our stay at Surf Gangs. Everything was just perfect: the rooms were very clean, the staff attentive and always willing to help, the breakfasts at the restaurant were great! Everything at the hotel gives the impression of good management, attention to details and hospitality, and we are happy to have chosen this hotel for our stay!"

The White Pillow ★★★

"The owner was incredibly helpful - organised a Tuk Tuk rental and a taxi to Colombo airport which was very cheap! Great pool and lovely atmosphere - highly recommend!"

Arugambay PodBay ★

"Clean and comfortable room. Friendly staff and excellent location. Restaurant and bar gets so busy at peak hours but staff were attending the clients promptly. Ideal place for a traveller looking for a relaxing hotel to stay overnight and enjoy the area."

Paddyway Resort ★★★

"A lovely resort with great customer service. The people running the resort could not do enough to ensure we had an enjoyable stay. The location is a short walk from the beach and restaurants. The It was in a nice quiet area. The rooms were really good and the shower one of the best we experienced in Sri Lanka. There was some building work taking place but we were told about this before we stayed. We didn’t use the pool but it looked great. Once the work has been completed the place will be fantastic, especially for families. I would definitely recommend and would love to return."

Surf & Sand Hotel Arugambay ★★

"The owner is a huge bluff and a liar. we stayed there for 3 days via booking. We did not receive a bill when paying and he canceled the booking when we were gone to put the booking money in his pocket. We also had to pay 25 euros in tax for 3 days. When we called him later, he kept disconnecting. Definitely not recommended!!!! Plenty of choice in the area"
