The most warm welcome I’ve had in Sri Lanka! The hostel manager was so friendly and helpful throughout my stay, I could really recommend the place. Good free breakfast and nice communal areas. Although it was low season and the hostel was quite empty, I still found new friends.

Loved every nights stay

New hostel with lovely staff. Comfy beds with clean linen and towels, lights and charger points for each bed. Breakfast was delicious and only takes 10mins to walk to the beautiful beach and only 2min to the main road to grab s bus. Would definitely stay again.
