What makes us unique here in Arugambay? Our property awaits you with the most breathtaking ocean view. Our family rooms, ocean-view rooms, and ground-floor rooms all have en-suite bathrooms and large beds with comfy mattresses. Our two apartments: the ocean view one (built in 2021) and the family one (built in 2023) can accommodate families, couples, and groups of friends (up to 4 adults). As these apartments, which feature ensuite bathrooms with showers, also have private kitchen facilities, cutlery, and working desks with fast internet connections, digital nomads and long-stay travellers can rest assured that their working environment will meet their expectations. Please inquire about long-stay special rates as well as digital nomad special rates.

Built on the land bought by my grandfather, back in the day, the Surf Access Guest House and Apartments have been part of the local hotel and restaurant business for the past 10 years. It is my pleasure to welcome you at SURF ACCESS and have you leave with the greatest Arugambay experience you could ever think of. Oh, by the way, my name is Dillshad, How do you do!

The ocean and the sandy beach of Arugambay are your neighbours, as you will benefit from our private access fully equipped beach with FREE sunbeds and parasols exclusively for all our guests. My staff and I are available 24/7 for your transfers and pick-ups, check-in/check-out, as well as organising local tours, think of the National Wildlife park, as well as fishing and water sports experiences. Tours along the coast to historical and religious places of interest are also available upon request. Same goes for yoga classes, Sri Lankan cooking classes, as well as for a day of pampering at one of the local SPA parlours on Arugambay's main road. In short, we have it all, JUST FOR YOU!
