Slow Living surf retreat
We believe that good people make good places.
We are a slow living retreat. Located in the most quiet end of Arugam Bay, still walkable to the main area in 5 minutes.
THE rooms
Surf & yoga camp in Arugambay is composed of a total of 10 rooms. The rooms are comfortable and all have a private balcony or terrace.
Our rooms are decorated in the most simple way to make it feel like your own Sri Lankan home. Rooms are simply and basic. ceiling fans, and hair dryers. A/C is available in certain rooms. You can see the images of the rooms at the booking stage.
THE GARDEN & Pool
A famous secret is we have the biggest camp ground for a hotel / guest house / retreat in Arugam Bay!
Come and enjoy the shady palms, hammocks, monkeys, volleyball and coconuts in our garden.
A pool is a must have in the summer heat of Arugam Bay, so our guests can enjoy a fresh dip in the pool. It’s overlooking the paddy field giving your eyes the relaxing views.
Days at Surf & Yoga combine soulful activity – swimming, surfing, beach walks, cycle rides and yoga – with deep rest and relaxation: reading by the pool and savouring delicious meals.
