Hotels in Arugam Bay

Arugam Bay is the best surfing beach in Sri Lanka, so it is frequently visited by tourists. Because of this reason hotels in Arugam Bay are expensive to stay and eat. Most of these hotels are not luxurious hotels with air conditioning, room service etc, rather beach villas with some modern facilities. The price for an overnight stay starts from around 15$ per room and can go up to 150$ per room. As mentioned before food is also very expensive here, with a normal fried rice costing around 5$ or more. Hotels near Pottuvil, which are a bit further away from the beach is the least expensive, but then you miss out on all the fun you can have by the beach.
If you are looking for a cheaper option then you can consider staying at Siyabalanduwa, which is about 30 minutes away from Arugam Bay.
