Looking for a hostel?
Budget travelers know there's 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 little more.

    Friendly host, helpful for backpackers (we had limited contact with the host as we had our own driver and guide). Great location! Quiet and very close to the beach

    Stayed here with our 16 year old ,we wanted to experience staying in a cabana . Great location, very close to the beach, sea safe for swimming and beach clean compared to Trincomalee beaches. Host and his family were so friendly and helpful. Organised our boat trip, tuk tuk rides and onwards travel. Food at their restaurant was excellent, tasty , freshly cooked and good price. So glad we stayed here and not at one of the bigger commercialised properties. Great value. Thank you for a lovely stay.

    An affordable dormitory not too far from the main beach bars in Uppuveli. The facilities are rudimentary but this is to be expected. The staff were friendly and helpful, and I enjoyed the opportunity to meet other backpackers as well.

    I loved the sense of peace and Rangan’s total goodness and beautiful smile! The facilities are basic as you’d expect for such a reasonably priced hostel, but it was clean and welcoming abd the garden was beautiful as was the coffee. Just the loveliest people in a great location near the beach

    Great experience. I was in a private room and although they are a bit noisy, they are comfortable for a few nights. The hostel is really nice and they help you with everything you need. Also a great place to meet new people, especially when you travel alone.

    Perfect location just 100 meters away from the beach, the place is very quite and clean. Akki and his mom are adorable. One of the best hostels I've been to. Thank you so much for the amazing stay

    Overall this is the cheapest hotel in Trincomalee, don't expect anything special. Pretty simple and budget, there is Wi-Fi. Good location, big room.
