The resort is great but idle for couples since they are Cabanas. With kids may be not a good idea.

We liked the staff they were helpful welcoming and warm even though we stayed over new year when most folks are on holiday. They even gave us some of their celebration foods. The rooms are very clean comfortable and spacious with really efficient aircon and fan. The waste water is recycled and used in the lovely garden. Rooms come with fridge kettle and fresh refillable drinking water availe all the time. The food in the restaurant was delicious and has a Japanese twist. There is a coffee shop right by the gate that sells excellent coffee and cake. They have a pool within a lush garden which gives some respite from the heat of the street. The pool is really clean and free for guests but public can use it for a fee. We loved our stay here so much we extended it for 2 nights. Whist the Spice trail doesn't back onto the beach it's right in the centre of Abay and just across the road from the beach. This was a favourite place to stay for us ❤️ Thank you Spice Trail team you are great! a special shout out to the lovely smiley gardener who alway met us with a wonderful smile 😃 we hope to return some day. 10 /10 💖

Absolutely stunning beach front hotel, pool was great with the kids, the chef was incredible - every dish was super tasty. We loved the outdoor chilling area and bean bags. Rooms were very spacious and stunning views of the ocean. And it was so close to the hustle of Arugam Bay!

The hotel is absolutely new. Our room was spacious, fresh, and very clean, with a nice and well-maintained bathroom. If I ever visit Arugam Bay again, I would definitely stay here again — out of all the hotels in this price range, this one is the best! The hotel is run by a very polite and kind family who made us feel welcome. The location was excellent — on the main road, within walking distance to cafes for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and just a 10-minute tuk-tuk ride to the beach, but you can also walk to it (20 minutes) It was quiet at night, and we had a very peaceful stay. There’s also a lake next to the hotel, where elephants sometimes come to drink — a beautiful sight to witness. All guest rooms are located on the second floor. They also plan to open a restaurant soon on the ground floor.

This is a beautiful beach villa, colonial style, with a lot of privacy. Wonderful location, really excluded, fantastic views. Great and very helpful staff. Rooms are spacious, well equipped, very clean, so are the bathrooms. We had there everything we needed. Tasty and full breakfasts. You can eat lunch and dinner at the villa and I don't agree that they are overpriced, as some guests mentioned in their opinions. Dishes were tasty and various, priced as in an average restaurant in Arugam Bay. Overall, I wish I could come back here one day, maybe in a larger group to have the villa for our own.

Our favourite place in Sri Lanka! We booked the Suite in the only high building and we loved every bit of it! Best chill out area outside, 30 m walk to the beach that we had to ourself most of the days. Comfy bed, good shower, lots of space and NO mosquitoes. We didn’t get to meet the owner Deen but his uncle is the sweetest too! 100% recommend.

You are more likely to meet a European than a local here.

You are more likely to meet a European than a local here. This is definately not a reflection on Sri Lankan culture, however the beach town is slow and quiet (realtively speaking) and there are plenty of shops and restaurants. And of coure, the surf is consistent and the water warm. It's a winner for a beach holiday.

The best feature of Arugam Bay is the surrounding jungle, lakes and lagoons. The main beach is very busy but other beaches, such as Peanut Farm are less crowded, Do thye Lagoon Safari and a park safari but also try surfing and relaxing on the beach.
