Agra Arugambay

Arugam Bay City, Arugam Bay

Agra Arugambay has a garden, terrace, a restaurant and bar in Arugam Bay. Located around 200 metres from Arugam Bay Beach, the hostel with free WiFi is also 1.7 km away from Pasarichenai Beach. The accommodation features a 24-hour front desk, and currency exchange for guests. One of the best hostels I’ve stayed at! The owner and his team are so thoughtful. The breakfast is incredible with several options (oats, pancakes, string hoppers, coconut roti). The location is great, it’s central and located on a quiet side street across from the beach. I also like the type of guests this hostel has attracts, most of which being young professionals who are considerate of the peaceful atmosphere. I will be staying here again next time I come to Arugam Bay!

Little Lagoon Hostel

Arugam Bay City, Arugam Bay

Set in the beginning of Arugam Bay, close enough to shops and restaurants but far enough that it is quiet and peaceful, Little Lagoon Hostel is a 3 minute walk away from the beach. The property features air-conditioned private rooms with attached bathrooms and airconditioned dorm rooms with shared bathrooms. Best hostel in Sri Lanka! What a lovely family that took care of me. The husband makes breakfast in the morning, the rooms are super clean, nice AC for the hot days, a bike i could borrow and just so much hospitality and care you feel when you stay here. I was the first person to stay for the season and i love it. Would definitely recommend ❤️

Cactus Arugambay

Arugam Bay City, Arugam Bay

At the hostel, each room includes a patio. Featuring a private bathroom with a bidet and free toiletries, some units at Cactus Arugambay also have a terrace. At the accommodation all rooms include bed linen and towels. I liked this hostel because it jas a great vibe and is close to the beach (2 min walk) It has a few private rooms and one dorm so its not the biggest, which i like. The room is only with single beds and is quite big. There is free waterrefil and the restaurant (buddies cafe) is a nice place to just have a chill or get some amazing food! The people are also very nice and will help you all they can. I stayed here 4 nights!
