Sri Lanka

Friendly staff, clean rooms and surroundings, the food is pretty decent, very relaxed atmosphere even during peak season and right by the sea front! The place is decorated pretty quirkily, lovely terrace to chill out in. Some board games at hand. The price is decent too! Overall, I highly recommend this place for anyone.

Was a great time with friends. Friends and helpful staff. Clean rooms. Relaxed atmosphere great food and all very affordable. Exceptional. Can’t wait to go again. Cheap and cheerful. If you’re looking for a place to go and surf in Sri Lanka this is the place.

The Surf Resort (not to be confused with the Surfing Resort, down the road) was a great place for a base of operations for exploring the area in and around Arugam Bay. The staff was very helpful and friendly, and the outside lounge area was a relaxing, comfortable place to spend some time between activities. The resort can assist with organization of excursions to the nearby lagoon and national park, and obviously also can set up surf lessons and rent surfboards, as well as bikes, by the day. The rooms are simple but very comfortable, and a fan will keep them adequately cool even if you don’t spring for A/C. Great food and good people, highly recommended!

We went to Arugam Bay Surf Resort in July2013. It was an amazing experience… We stayed for 5 nights, and would have stayed for longer if we had more time in Sri Lanka The staff are very friendly, and the “chilled out” vibe is what made our holiday… The prices are very reasonable & the service is good! Try the hot butter sauce with your fries – its MOUTH WATERING goooood! We would love to go there again, and already miss all the “family” we made there.. Juan & Daphne xx
