Secret Paradise is a beautiful wooden cabin surrounded by nature right by the sea. Malika and her family make sure everything is perfect – from cleanliness and service to excellent local cuisine. It’s a very peaceful place to relax, yet close to more touristy areas like Arugam Bay (about 20 minutes by tuk-tuk). We’ll come back as soon as we can, it was amazing!!!

This is THE place to stay if you are interested in safaris within Kumana NP. We had an exceptional driver (as good an animal spotter as our guide!). We were lucky enough to have Sam as our guide. He is a BBC wildlife videographer and knew so much about the animals and their behaviours. It gave us the best chance of having so many great leopard/animal encounters. The food and hotel staff was also fantastic. If I come back to Sri Lanka I would skip Yala and come here for a few nights more. There is no mobile signal in Kumana to alert other drivers to where wildlife is so usually the leopard encounters are just yourself and no-one else. Just note - the national park is still about 45 min drive away from the hotel and Panama is a quiet place (more peaceful than Arugum Bay). Its def not a party place like Arugum bay. Safaris are from 5am until about 6.30pm. I would also recommend maybe bringing a neck buff and protection for expensive camera equipment (towel to cover). There is a lot of dust that kicks up off the road.

Extremely helpful and polite owner and staff, everything was clean and tidy, Doctor Heshan (Owner) helped us with just about anything we could think off from arranging breakfast, barbeque dinner, recommending surf bays and trips to conversations about Sri Lanka ways of living. Thank you for everything, we will always remember and hope to come back one day.

Everything was perfect: - The hosts are a lovely couple and made us feel very welcome and comfortable from the first moment on. They were very supportive and just amazing people. - The room was very clean and did not smell (as some other places where we were before) - For people who are looking for a quiet and peaceful place apart from the party/bar area it's perfect - The hosts offer to arrange a Scooter or Tuk Tuk - The dinner was delicious

The huts are super special, very nice place to stay and sleep, right on the beach. The staff are a very friendly family. Quite far from the Arugam center but for me that was great as I needed a nice peaceful spot for myself plus I rented a bike so was pretty easy getting around.

A hidden gem! My husband and me loved this place. The host is very welcoming and will help with anything. We've been there for a whole month and couldn't ask for more: fully equipped kitchen, sleeping room with air con, an own backyard with lots of palm trees, beautiful sunrises and a big deck upstairs. The house is actually at the beach, so you can watch the ocean anytime. Highly recommend if you are looking for a quiet and peaceful place.

A very social hostel with a great atmosphere and a great staff. The manager is very kind and helpful, he gives us many tips on things to do on the area and takes us to surfing lessons in the morning if we want. In the evening we all gather around a tasty family dinner cooked by the staff. There's even a skate park in the hostel ! Good location at 15min by walk from town-center and close to several beach in a quiet stress ! Bathrooms and dorms are clean with fans above each bed or AC. I highly recommend this place !

    This is my favourite place to stay in Arugam Bay! The accommodation is beautiful, and the staff are incredibly kind. They made our stay the best in Sri Lanka so far! The rooms were spotless, and the bed was very comfortable. Breakfast was delicious, and all the guys who run this place are amazing! You can enjoy and relax in the stunning natural surroundings here. They have very experienced wildlife guides who provided us with an unforgettable safari. Surfing is also an option here. Have fun, surf lovers!
