this place should be called hidden gem. it's quiet (in off season) qs it's outside the really touristic area but still 7 minutes walk from the beach. the dorms are really maintained. outside showers are so perfect for the weather and the common...

The most incredible Hostel in Sri Lanka. The shower under the palm trees was amazing. It was very clean and the rooms were decent size. You can see monkeys, squirrels, peacocks and many other animals. If you love nature I highly recommend it.

The staff was really friendly, my elbow was hurting and they helped me get to a doctor. We really liked the bathroom and showers too. They were always very clean and smelled really nice. It's a short walk to the hustle and bustle of Hiriketya....

Comfy bed, very clean. And the environment is so nice! A little part of the jungle, with monkeys and squirrels. Oh, and the open air showers are the best!!!

The open showers in the middle of the jungle (don’t worry, there are doors !) The staff is really nice and the place is clean, lots of toilets and showers. It’s a little bit outside the city center which is good if you want some quiet.

My favourite Stay in Sri Lanka. Beautiful facilities immersed in the jungle with a view to the see and close enough for a nice morning workout walk. Usable outdoor kitchen and moonlit showers. The host is very sweet.
