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 !

All hostels in Pottuvil
Looking for a hostel?
Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Property is in a great location close to the Main Street, the beach and main surf point. The hosts are so lovely, and offer to prepare breakfast/coffee/juice every morning - we were only supposed to be staying for 5 nights but ended up extending for another 5 as the room is such good value for money. It’s clean, spacious, has a fan and A/C which is all we needed out of a room. Thankyou for having us
