Beach Cab Resort, hotel in Arugam Bay

Beach Cab Resort is set in Arugam Bay, 70 metres from Arugam bay surf point, 2.4 km from Muhudu Maha Viharaya and 11 km from Magul Maha Viharaya.

The bed is really huge and comfortable with a mosquito net, the AC in the room is working good and the bathroom was nice. Everything was clean and it was all decorated with a lot of love. In front of the entrance there’s also a place to sit outside or lie in a hammock. Nayeem the manager loves gardening and has a lot of different plants outside. We felt really welcomed from the beginning. Nayeem’s kindness and generosity is overwhelming! Also Ashib is very very kind! You can use the kitchen as well! The place is situated very good, you’re near the beach so you hear the waves breaking from the room and you’re near the Main Street (restaurants, markets, shops) but no too near so you don’t hear all the noise. We would definitely come again!

Aqua Blue, hotel in Arugam Bay

Set in Arugam Bay, 100 metres from Arugam Bay Beach and 2.2 km from Pasarichenai Beach, Aqua Blue offers spacious air-conditioned accommodation with a terrace and free WiFi.

My stay at Aqua Blue was very pleasant. The room was spacious and clean and a lovely terrace where I could relax. Each day, I had the option to choose from a variety of breakfasts offered by the accommodation, which I really appreciated. The beach is just a minute away, perfect for a quick swim, and the town is only a short 5-minute walk. The host was extremely friendly and helpful, adding a personal touch to the experience. I would gladly stay here again!

Feel the Waves, hotel in Arugam Bay

Located 200 metres from Arugam Bay Beach, Feel the Waves offers a private beach area, a garden and air-conditioned accommodation with a balcony and free WiFi.

I liked the proximity to the beach. We literally walked out of the door. And you were on the sand. Quiet location. The food and drinks ordered at the bar on the beach were great. Food was super yummy. Didn’t have a chance to have the included breakfast - completely forgot we had it included - but it did look yummy. Most days we would go out and grab food. And then just come and lie on the beach - if that’s what you want then I’d suggest you stay here!

    The village area was very relaxed and quiet, sometimes I could even see monkeys right from the hammock on the porch. Great thing about the house is that it has a kitchen and you can make fruits for breakfast and you dont alwahs have to go out. The owner of the house is a very helpful person, he even helped me organize the following trip. Also he put there a bike, which is very handy when you want to go to a beach, beacause you dont always have to pay for tuk tuk. For me it was the best possible value for money in this area.

    The rooms are very comfortable and the staff was AMAZING. Cooked us delicious food and breakfast, did our washing and was super attentive. The villas are outside Arugam Bay and it is a much quieter vibe than the busy Arugam Bay. We preferred it like that, maybe for some people the location will be a problem.
