This is my home in Sri Lanka. I love the people, I love the lake, I love the THE CATS and the dog. Came here to stay for a few days, thought I could stay maybe for 2 weeks if I like it, and ended up staying for 4 weeks in total :) The location is perfect for me. It is away from the crowded areas, very close to the lake so you are surrounded by nature in a quite place basically. It is also not very far away from the town. So you can take the bike, rent the scooter, get on the local bus or tuktuk and it only takes a few minutes to reach to the town. The rooms are comfortable and clean, you can have a boat ride, you can use the kitchen and cook for yourself too. You can also have a cooking class for a small price. I had my best rice and curry here in this hostel. Thank you Berto, Sri, and Manee for having me. I can’t wait to come back again.

Our stay at White House was absolutely amazing, the best place we stayed in Sri Lanka by a mile. The room was spotless, incredibly spacious, and comfortable. We spent five days here and genuinely didn’t want to leave. The highlight of our stay was the host, who treated us like a family and made us feel so welcome. His hospitality and a big smile were unmatched, and we are truly grateful for everything. Thank you so much for making our stay so special. We’ll definitely be back soon!

All hostels in Hikkaduwa

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
