Lovely accommodation with a superb location. Everything was within walking distance, with plenty of great restaurants, cafés, and shops nearby, as well as quick and easy access to the beach. It was the perfect base for exploring the area without needing any transport. The hosts were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and accommodating throughout our stay. They were always happy to help and made us feel right at home. Breakfast was plentiful and offered a great variety of options to choose from, including fresh fruit, coffee, and tea. There was something for everyone, and it was a great way to start each day. We also took advantage of the laundry service offered by the accommodation. Although there was an additional fee, it was very reasonably priced, quick, and extremely convenient during our travels. Overall, we had a wonderful stay and would happily recommend this accommodation to anyone visiting the area. Great location, excellent hospitality, and everything you need for a comfortable stay.

Wonderful property and host! Iqbal and his staff were so warm and welcoming! They went above and beyond making sure I felt comfortable and enjoyed my stay! I was welcomed with delicious pineapple juice and a pastry. I ended extending my stay because it was such a warm and cozy place to spend a few days at the beach. Beach access is a few meters away. Iqbal also arranged surf lessons to peanut farm and I couldn’t recommend them enough! Best surf coach I’ve ever had! The room was very clean and spacious with hangers for wet clothes and storage. The hammocks outside each room are a very nice touch and relaxing. Each morning, the breakfast was very good and tasty! Lots of fresh fruit! Whatever you need, Iqbal and his team will take care of. Had a lot of nice chats with Iqbal. He will be missed! Wish I could stay for longer. Will definitely be back to this cozy piece of paradise.

Everything was great. They were always waiting for us on the entrance. Food was the best in the country so far. They were super kind. They arranged the safari for us, we were alone in the park and we saw elephants, flying squirrels, different monkey species, lizards, water buffalos, deers and more. It was a great stop on our way to Yala.

The cabana we rented was very nice and cozy. There was a fan and a mosquito net. The location is perfect, just a few steps from the beach. The shared shower and toilet are clean. Beautiful ambiance with waves crashing on the shore. It is great that the breakfast is included

Really good value for money. Double bed, kitchen, free water and the fan was more than enough. Little bit out from Arugam so was a lot more quiet and relaxing but not too far that you'd miss anything. Riswan was a very friendly host too!

Super clean and comfortable room with AC and fan. You have a hammock to chill, a table with chairs outside and a kitchen fully equipped and clean that you can use. Tanya and Tony are warm and friendly people. They take a really good care of the place and make you feel at home. The guesthouse is located 3 minutes walk from the sea, 1 minute walk from a shop and 1 minute walk from all the restaurant. And... It is peaceful and quiet 🙂

This hostel is wonderful. Very peaceful, you can hear the waves from your bed and go and see the sunrise every morning. Great location. The food is also very good, I loved my free breakfast hehe, the fruit pancakes are great!! I met amazing people there. Booked 1 night, ended up staying 10 days haha :) The staff is lovely, they took great care of us. I am very grateful for their support and help. They are very kind people. I really recommend. Thank you for everything Haroon :)

Great location close to Main Street and the beach which is very helpful as getting tuk tuk out of the main area can be somewhat overwhelming. Quiet area close to amazing cafe (Shady Lane) and dinner spot (Emily’s). Theepan is very accomodating, helpful and welcoming - always responded promptly to any requests. Couldn’t recommend Hilltop House enough!
