We had a great stay. The hosts were super friendly to us. Location of the place is superb, only 50 m away from the beach. Our room was spacious and clean with a mosquito net, ac and fan. Breakfast was included (fried egg and toast). All in all fantastic value for money. We would definitely come again! Thank you :)

We really loved our stay at Aqua Blue! The hostess and her brother make your stay at Arugum-bay the best!! They do everything to give you a pleasant stay and the brother shows you around in the wildlife. He has the best eyes and made us see so much elephants and crocodiles. The sweetest people we met so far in Sri Lanka.
