Michael was really helpful and the vibe of the restaurant is really good. It is also next to Kabalana beach, very good for chilling and surfing. Locker spaces can be improved.

Ganz schickes Hostel. Ich fand es etwas teuer. Als ich da war, fand ich es nicht ganz so Social, jeder war in Grüppchen da und wollte sich nicht connecten. Es gibt zwar Aktivitäten um Leute kennenzulernen, das wird von den Gästen leider kaum angenommen. Die Klimaanlage führte bei fast allen in unserem Zimmer zu Erkältungen. Das ist natürlich ärgerlich, aber man hat eine Klimaanlage :) Lage top. Hostel sauber.

I enjoyed the stay at the hostel, it’s really pretty and just 30 seconds to Kabalana beach - perfect for surfing! Anyways I think it’s a little bit overpriced.

Best hostel I stayed in the whole of my trip to Sri Lanka. Ended up coming back 2 more times. Run by a lovely bunch of Sri Lankan people, only a few meters away from the beach. I loved the spacious concrete bunks, super comfy and very private. Top cleanliness in the bathroom, I felt at home that's why I came back. It's also a digital nomad place and attracts a not so young crowd which I liked. Cafe is a bit expensive but very good coffee and food, option for good food at the café next door also...

Really nice and clean place! it was quite empty and unsocial during my stay but i guess thats because it was off-season

The room was very nice. The man who was there looking after the property was so lovely. He got up at 2:30am to make sure we got our taxi to the safari. He was amazing throughout our stay. The dog is lovely too

Lovely hostel, really pretty and clean. Lovely cafe on site and right by the beach. It’s a bit out from the main bit of Ahangama but still restaurants close by. Not very social but a lovely chilled hostel

Very clean and comfort beds, but not a very nice place when you want to meet new people. No area, no activities etc.

The staff were fantastic and the coffee shop was really cute, however, the owner was really unfriendly and at points made me feel quite awkward when browsing the options in the cafe. The hostel itself smells bad and needs to be painted or to have a deep clean. The toilet in the dorm also didn’t flush which, as you can imagine was really annoying and unhygienic. Not the most sociable either, as you can join a WhatsApp when you check in but nothing was posted on there my entire stay.

Amazing hostel with a nice location in Ahangama and nice activities offered. The staff was very friendly and helpful with everything. Would definitely recommend the 4-dorm and not the 8-dorm. We stayed in each for one night and it's a totally different experience in comfort and hygiene and atmosphere! Wouldn't give 10/10 if we only stayed in the 8-dorm tbh
