We had a wonderful experience and have already recommended visiting to friends.

Lucky Bay, hotel in Arugam Bay

Located in Arugam Bay, within 60 metres of Arugam Bay Beach and 1.9 km of Pasarichenai Beach, Lucky Bay provides accommodation with a garden and free WiFi as well as free private parking for guests...

I really liked the accommodation! It’s very close to the beach, 1min, it was clean and for the price really good, the bed was big with a mosquito net, I had AC and a ventilator and in general it had a lot of plants which I love. It was close to the Main Street where all the restaurants, cafes and shops are, but it was still quiet. The owner was super friendly and nice, we had some chats and he was always around to answer my questions. I can definitely recommend it :)

    It's a place for beach lovers and surfers. Further not that spectaculair place to stay, lot is outdated and overprized. For nature lovers is Kumana the place to be and for that reason you stay in Arugam Bay. One village further is Panama, with a little accommodation to stay.

    It is a must destination for any traveller who is interested in surfing. There are shops to buy your needs and many more. You can find good restaurants where they serve meals at any time. Kumana the wild life sanctuary for birds is nearby to where you can arrange transport at Arugumbay. Apart from birds, crocodiles. Leopards. Bears and elephants can be sighted. Though this is situated at east coast there are places where you can observe sunsets as well.

    Greatest place we have been to in Sri Lanka. Very nice hosts and personal, clean and comfy bungalow with everything one needs, very comfortable bed, refill of filtered water, bikes available to take without additional cost, awesome tips and information from the hosts. Located right at the start of Arugam Bay, so quick and easy to cycle to Pottuvil for cheaper local food and it is not so crowded as in the middle of Arugam Bay. Overall just perfect. We have been here in off-season and enjoyed it to the fullest

    What a place! The scenery is amazing, huts on the beach are so relaxing. But really the staff is what makes the resort special, they are super sweet and helpful. Had a great time and there are some good surf spots nearby, but without being in the bustle of A Bay. Would highly recommend, especially for couples and small groups that would prefer a more relaxed experience on this coast. Definitely will go back

    Both the room and the bathroom was clean. Property itself is kept in good condition. Tucked away from the main street, so it is quiet yet very easy to access all the restaurants. Beach is only a short walk away. Owner was nice and helpful. Both the owner and the assistant greeted us with friendly smiles whenever they saw us. We plan on staying there again whenever we visit Arugam Bay the next time.

The environment of the hotel is amazing and all the good energies in Arugam Bay are there. They will build more in the future to expand the hotel so we will definitely come back to see and visit them. Thank you for everything!

    I enjoyed my stay at Twinkle Bay Hotel. The rooms are adequate and clean. It is in a prime location in Arugam Bay, not far from the beach and the shopping street. The hostel owner Muza is very accommodating and nice. He took care of all my needs. From staying in the hotel room after I checked out to taking me to the bus station from where I left. I loved it and would come back anytime!
