    • I was amazing ? with its laid-back atmosphere, beautiful sandy beaches, and great surf spots. I was really enjoyed because im a beach lover. According to needs and preferences generally, it's ideal to look for a hotel that is centrally located, close to major attractions in Arugambay. This allows for convenient exploration of the destination and easy access to amenities.Specially it was comfortable accommodations and relaxed atmosphere. The cleanliness of the entire property and ensuring a comfortable and satisfaction of our stay ? The quality of food and drink was overall good guest experience for us. The staff went above and beyond to ensure a pleasant stay. Overall I would like to recommend this hotel?? because it is really good understand our preferences better.
    • Sunrise Cabanas was a new place for me to stay. ?❤️ This is primarily explained by the diversity that exists there. The cabanas offer a pleasant getaway from the everyday commotion because they are tucked away in a serene environment. The staff went further than expected to assure my comfort and was incredibly friendly. Due to its proximity to the coast, it was simpler to stay here when participating in water sports. ??? The main attraction in this area is surfing. ?‍♀️?‍♀️?‍♀️ The rooms at Sunrise Cabanas were comfortable, providing a pleasant stay for us. A new experience was also had by hanging out at the pub in the evening. Overall, my experience at Sunrise Cabanas was fantastic. Thank you for the great hospitality. ❤️ I highly recommend this place to anyone.

    Cons -

    • Electricity doesn't work well, it all turns off at least twice a day, you can't charge your phone and use AC at the same time. After 2 nights they moved us to some "better" room but this was the same.
    • We had several power cuts during our stay. Our door could not be open easily so we needed a staff member any time we wanted to go into the room to help us open it. The bathroom door could not be closed, there were bottles and papers under the bed from previous guests, so cleaning is not done propertly at the hotel…For the price of the room you can find better things in Arugam

    We stayed at a deluxe twin room, the room was clean and well equipped with amenities. The staffs in the hotel were very helpful and available 24hrs. Had our lunch at the hotel, the food was incredible too. The Hiriketiya Beach is just walking distance from the hotel and it is a must visit when you come to Arugam Bay. A beautiful beach with people from different nationalities and a great place to spend your evenings. Enjoyed the visit extremely and will surely come back again

    If you're a surfing enthusiast, look no further than Sunrise Cabanas for your ultimate surfing getaway in Arugam Bay. My recent stay at this incredible property has left me in awe of its convenient proximity to some of the best surfing locations in the world.From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with warmth and enthusiasm by the staff at Sunrise Cabanas. They were not only knowledgeable about the local surf scene but also eager to share insider tips and recommendations. Their passion for surfing was contagious, and I knew I was in good hands throughout my stay.One of the standout features of Sunrise Cabanas is its prime location. Situated just a short walk from the beach, it provided me with easy access to some of the most popular and renowned surfing spots in Arugam Bay. Whether you're a seasoned pro or a beginner looking to catch your first wave, you'll be spoiled for choice with the variety of breaks available nearby.One of my favourite spots was Main Point, known for its long, consistent right-hand waves. It's perfect for intermediate surfers and provides an exhilarating ride. Another must-visit location is Peanut Farm, which offers fast and hollow waves that are sure to challenge even the most experienced surfers. The beach break at Baby Point is also worth checking out, as it caters to surfers of all levels with its mellow and forgiving waves.After an exhilarating day of riding waves, Sunrise Cabanas provided the perfect retreat. The comfortable and well-appointed accommodations allowed me to recharge and relax. The peaceful atmosphere and breathtaking views from the property were the ideal backdrop for reflecting on an epic day of surfing.

    Staff are extremely helpful, friendly and very welcoming. Excellent location to access to main surf spots

    This property is conveniently located a short walk away from the main break in Abay. It’s also a quieter location as it is a bit farther down the street from some of the noisier bars and hotels. The property is recently under new management and we were among the first guests under the new owner. It was obvious that they are currently in the process of doing many updates and making changes to the property for the better. Many improvements are being made. The staff was very accommodating and made us feel very at home. We really appreciate the hospitality and would definitely stay here again!

    The Hotel is only a short walk to the beach, restaurants and shops. The bungalows are at the back of the building and are very quiet.
