Excellent location, friendly staff, and super clean. Each bed is equipped with its own fan & light, which is convenient. Also, a very social hostel with plenty of areas to hangout. Loved my stay!!!

This is a great hostel, perfectly located, 50m from the beach, next to a supermarket. The manager is super nice. I definitely recommend it.

Was only here for a night, but great location so close to the beach and perfect if you are wanting to learn to surf. The vibes were good and everyone was super friendly.

I had a really lovely stay here! If you’re wanting a social hostel and to meet other travellers this is definitely the place to stay. The hostel does a lot of organised activities for everyone to do together what was really lovely, I definitely would stay again.

Cute hostel. Much prefer the social spaces here than the one in Hiriketiya. If you’re considering a non-AC room, personally, it was not worth it. Otherwise, nice staff and decent facilities.

Happy hammocks was the best hostel in Sri Lanka for us so far. Its near to the Beach and really social, if You Like to there is at least one organized hostel activity a day. The rooms and hang areas are also clean and got everything you need. We met so many nice people here and loved our stay :)

I found it a bit hard to socialize as there was already a group formed and it wasn’t easy to get it. It was a younger crowd (18-24). The location is great - close to the beach. Having a kitchen is always super nice especially if you’re traveling longer. I wouldn’t say it’s worth the money tho. I have stayed in much cleaner and more modern places for way less. For some reason I kept a having so much sand in my bed (it would literally fall on me even during the night)

Good atmosphere for socialising and activities in the day and evening. Friendly staff. Convenient locations. Amenities basic but good and good common areas. Beds were thin/hard.
