Besides the hostel is really cosy and clean, the people working there are amazing. Their hospitality is beyond and they're so welcoming. Really felt like a home. I already extended my stay and if it was possible I would've stayed longer.

My stay at the Well was nothing short of exceptional. The attention to detail in every aspect of the experience, from the exquisite room design (I had an outdoor shower) to the wonderfully maintained garden area, showcased a commitment to the needs of any type of traveller coming down south in Sri Lanka. The staff went above and beyond, anticipating my needs (unfortunately I had a surgery on my lower back few days before my arrival) before I even realized them. The ambiance throughout the Well exuded sophistication. It's not just a place; it's THE place to stay for anyone who loves a day by the beach and the smell of the jungle! Thanks a lot to Sam, Till, Yannick & Rick for making my vacation a hell of a blast! I will definitely be back soon!

I had a very good stay at this hotel. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the room was clean and comfortable with everything I needed for a pleasant stay. The location is convenient, close to Kabalana Beach, which made it easy to get around. Overall, it was a nice experience and good value for the money. I would be happy to stay here again.

It is a good place to rest, pass by a tuk tuk if you want to go to the beach or you can get there on foot in about 15 minutes.

I stayed at Omnia a total of about 3 weeks. I loved everything about the place. It was super clean, well maintained, the cafe was AMAZING. I tried almost everything on the menu and there was not one thing that I did not love. The best part of this place by far was the staff. This place is run by a group of awesome, caring, helpful, and genuinely kind guys. Everything from scooter renting, surf lessons, taxi booking, to even suggestions about beaches and local places were helped with by these guys. The staff are the reason I spent most of my Sri Lanka trip at this hostel. Rooms have AC, Bathrooms and showers are very clean. I am a hot shower person so I was a little worried about that not being available at Omnia, but honestly I didn't even feel it was needed because it's so hot outside anyways! When I finally left it felt like I was leaving a place that became home to me and the staff made me feel like I was family to them. I will 100% be coming back to Omnia to stay next time I come to Sri Lanka!

We really enjoyed our stay at KA Surf Hostel. The private room was great, relatively new, surrounded by a wonderful garden. The host family was very warm and welcoming and made amazing breakfast every morning, with changing dishes. All the guests were having breakfast at one big table, which was a nice atmosphere. The Kabalana Beach is very close, max 10 minutes walking. We would definitely recommend staying at this place!
