We had an amazing stay at Bay Dreams Beach Hotel. From the minute we walked in, we were welcome with smiles and incredible service. The staff are friendly and super helpful. We were served with delicious breakfast every morning, which we looked forward to. Rooms are clean, and the aircon works well. We recommend this place to any and all travelers looking for a home away from home in Arugam Bay. We will be back :)

Bashir was a fantastic host and the room was superb with a nice balcony to chill on. Everything worked as it should. Location was great for us, just out of the centre so quiet but a very short walk to the majority of restaurants.

Really nice place to stay in Arugam Bay. The hotel has a nice ambient, beautiful garden. The owner and the staff are lovely and very helpful. We had good chats and they help us in any way we needed. The room was clean and nice, just like the bathroom. It has a very good value for the price. AC works fine and there is a ceiling fan as well. The beach is just the end of the street, 50 meters. There are many good places to eat nearby.

This accommodation is off the Main Street, which meant it was quiet at night. The aircon was very welcome and bottled water is available at the hotel, meaning I didn’t have to bring it in. The owner / manager is very accommodating and helpful. He answered all of my questions and made me feel very comfortable. He assisted me in finding a car to drive to my next location for a very reasonable price. Next time I will stay in Arugum Bay for longer and definitely back at the Bavarian Resort. Highly Recommended

A peaceful garden paradise near the surf! Vinka’s place is a little piece of quiet garden paradise just a short walk from the surf spot! I loved the peaceful atmosphere, the lush garden, and how comfortable and clean the cabanas were. Vinka was super helpful and kind throughout my stay — always available if I needed anything. Everything was perfect, and I felt totally at home. I’ll definitely come back one day. Highly recommended for surfers and nature lovers alike!

Apple is one of the nicest people you’ll ever meet in Sri Lanka—if not in the entire world. I’ve never been so sad to leave an accommodation before; it truly felt like leaving a friend behind. Hopefully, I’ll be back soon. Not to mention great breakfast and good quiet location but still very close to the town and the beach.
