When we booked our stay at Eco Monsoon Resort, we did not expect to find such a gem! The hosts are amazing and made us feel at home the moment we stepped in. These are real people, offering their home, time and local knowledge to make your stay as good as it gets. All the food is prepared by the hosts - definitely real Sri Lankan cuisine at its finest here. The meals are wholesome, cooked with a lot of heart and soul; a mix of dhal, rice dishes, different roti, potato, veggies, fish, chicken and seafood, paired with fresh juices, proper coffee and/or chai kept us craving for more every day. Also, they are great at managing the spiciness levels and if you want to go all the way, you can. The resort itself is a very unique, beautiful refuge. It is authentic, charming & peaceful and provided a quiet and lush oasis. It is a place to enjoy, have great talks and get a good rest after a day of surfing or exploring the coastline. Yes, the surfing hub of Arugam Bay is a bit of a ride away, but that is part of what makes the place: Less crowds, more authenticity. Within a short distance from Eco Monsoon, there are two lesser-known point breaks that kept us entertained and let us enjoy some uncrowded sessions. So, if you're up for an authentic experience away from all the crowds, give this place a go. We enjoyed it - the unpretentious accommodation, the homely food, the heartfelt hospitality, and the early morning surfs. We'll be back. Thank you and see you soon.

Owner and the staff are very kind people, full of joy and thoughtful. We spent the evening chatting together. They offer us the dinner and gave the best room since we were the only guests. Very good price, close to beach and authentic with hammock and coconut. Perfect for relaxing in the nature. Super recommended.

Would you like to experience paradise? We did! Eco Aloevera Garden is a place where you may see see the beautiful empty beaches, wonderful sea landscape and such a unique atmospere! Great place to visit out of the tourist season - which we did, March was great choice. The owner and stuff soooo friendly, meeting all the needs.

This is PARADISE! exactly like I have seen it described in books. Everything is just created to make you not want to ever leave ❤️ me and my fiancé had such a great experience here. When we have arrived, we had a bad cold, and everyone has mobilized to make us feel better: pills, teas, all kinds of ayurvedic medicines were given to us to make us feel better. I felt like we were at our parents homes, and they're going above and beyond to make us feel better. Rooms: we got an upgrade to a room with bathroom and, even though we paid for the lower one, we were offered for free the upper one - very nice gesture 👍 we never slept better - ocean sound and breeze, there is a balcony for each cabana. Super clean, great design, bathrooms are big. Lovely :) The food: Italian base, I had the best pizza ever. Also, we love soup, so their chicken soup is perfect. Staff: amazing. Also, the owners are very fun and welcoming, it was a pleasure to meet them. Activities: the complex is at the ocean front. So we bathed and sun bathed, the weather was amazing. Also, you can learn how to surf, get a massage, play board games, go to safari, go into the lagoon on the beach or by boat, tuktuk to PottuVill, which is much better than Arugam Bay, being more local. I don't have enough good words for this accomodation. I am now looking at options to come back in Jan-Feb and stay for longer than 3 days 😄
