Best hotel in arugam bay”
Everything here is top quality for arugam bay. The staff are wonderful and nothing is a problem. Breakfast buffet is outstanding with different choices every day and eggs cooked in front of you. The swimming pool is crystal clear and gardens top notch. In my view this place has no faults. We have had 8 days and have another 15. I would highly recommend the blue wave

Very nice”
We had a lovely stay. Check whether Arugam bay is in season or not as lots closed during off peak season- not when you'd expect it to be. It is when the waves are less desirable for surfers.

Good choice for Arugam Bay”
On the plus side, The rooms and hotel were great with a wonderful pool area and nice sized room. The hotel itself is out of the busyness of Arugam Bay. On the down side, The beds and pillows were uncomfortable, gym under equipped and the WiFi was difficult to use.

EXCELLENT”
Fantastic place. By far the best place to stay at Arugam Bay. Staff very friendly and genuinely keen to help. Far better to me than 5 star hotels in Colombo

Clean and new hotel with all facilities”
We had a very nice stay at the Blue Wave. Only minor thing we could think of was the variation in the breakfast. After 5 mornings of exactly the same juice, fruit and egg we were longing for something else

Great relaxing and very comfortable hide away in the East”
We stayed two nights in this hotel during our tour in Sri Lanka. Our first impression of this hotel was great, clean, quiet setting with friendly smiley staff. The rooms are large, clean and well furnished with comfortablebeds and well equipped clean clean bathroom. Great choice of food. “Lal”, who managed the dining room is very helpful and accommodating. We were surprised by the dishes provided, when we asked for authentic Sri Lankan dishes. In house Chef, “Hiran”, is brilliant, produced excellent Sri Lankan dishes as well as Western dishes for us. His ‘battered cuttlefish rings’ were the best we tried, in the country. Must try “Gune’s’’ cocktails while you are there too. Also “Enoka” who runs the hotel Spa has magic fingers. All her treatments are wonderful and healing. This hotel brings you very positive vibes all over. Last but not least must congratulate young hotelier, “Hasini”, who is very dedicated and running the place very efficiently.

2 Australian guys on a surf trip ”
This was our first time in Arugum Bay. The staff were very helpful with everything we needed . The rooms are very clean and the air conditioning was essential. If you want a clean nice place to stay that's not packed with party animals then this is the place .

Average and overpriced”
The hotel rooms were average/quite basic - the room was fine but nothing special and definitely not worth the money. But then other hotels in Arugam Bay seemed overpriced for what they were too. The pool was disappointing because it was quite dirty and the pool area smelt of the drains - this put us off of using the pool which is a shame. The hotel was fine but overall, I would say it is overpriced as it is very basic.

Nice hotel with clean rooms”
Pros: very clean hotel, good breakfast, good location because no noise from the streets, good swimmingpool, good cocktails at a very decent price. Cons: the walls are very thin, when you bring earplugs there is nothing to worry about!

Friendly staff but a little disappointing ”
Booked this accommodation to use the gym but it has only cardio machines no free weights so is pretty useless. Plenty of cardio on the beach Old multi exercise weight machine doesn't work properly. Staff is very friendly and helpful however was told at checkin that breakfast was included only to discover (after I'd eaten it) that it wasn't and it definitely wasn't worth the price. Hotel itself is nice and the staff are lovely but not sure it's really value for money with so many options in town.

Excellent”
Very clean hotel and the staff are very friendly and attentive. It’s 200 yards from the beach and easy access to surfing during the season. The Kumana National Park is one hour away and the hotel will arrange a vehicle to see the Birds and the animals.

Okay ”
Great location across the road from beach and close to restaurants. Small balconies with noisy air conditioning units. Great breakfasts and nice pool to cool off in after day at beach. Every Thursday from 1-9pm is a pool party where all the backpackers come from surrounding hostels converge at the pool. Blaring music. Not good for hotel guests. The pool was green on Friday morning after this. A big downfall
