Situated within 100 metres of Arugam Bay Beach and 3.2 km of Muhudu Maha Viharaya, Tropicana Home Stay features rooms with air conditioning and a private bathroom in Arugam Bay. With garden views, this accommodation offers a terrace. The accommodation provides a 24-hour front desk, a shared kitchen and currency exchange for guests. A pleasure! My boyfriend and I stayed at Tropicana Hotel for 6 nights, and this is the best decision we have made in our 3 week trip to Sri Lanka. I've never felt so welcome as we did at this hotel, it felt like Jazz and his family opened their home for us. The accommodation is top quality (10/10), however the best part was the warm and good people at the hotel. We even got invited to a home made Sri Lankan dinner, very wholesome and soo good curry! The accommodation is close to city center but the rooms are quiet and withdrawn. Its located right next to the beach and also a super market, which is run by the family. Jazz also organized surf lessons, a safari tour, and affordable transport to the next part of our journey. Absolutely worth a visit :) Thank you Jazz and family!

Mohammad was a lovely host and very proud of his property, it is very clean and tidy. It is also off the noise from the main road and away from the noise of the beach bars. A short 20 min walk along the beach to main point surf break. Beds are super large, rooms with air-conditioning.
loved the location, close enough to town (free bikes) but quiet beach front. Great hosts and staff, chilled and helpful, nice food, great pool and lounge areas
Mohamed the owner takes great care and is a lovely host.
A great Combination of wonderful locals and happy guests. Everyone was in good mood at this good mood place. Brian and Tariq and Santa were great hosts, helping when needed. I was sad to leave the awesome atmosphere! Will come again.
