Just stayed for the second time and was amazing as the first Sharon, Sangeetha and all of the team do everything to ensure your stay is amazing. Location is very central and easy to walk to everything Arugam Bay has to offer. The rooms are very clean and comfortable, love the outdoor shower in the bungalows. Great facilities including the swimming pool, restaurant with relaxing spaces in the shade and fabulous food, always top quality, There is live entertainment which is of a great quality. We did a couple of yoga sessions with Tamara which we loved. Also went on a half day safari arranged by the hotel. A driver and guide was provided with many insights and education provided throughout the safari, the guide was very knowledgeable. We were incredibly lucky seeing 6 leopards, elephants, sloth bear and many birds. I cannot recommend this property highly enough and we will be back next time in the Bay.

This is truly an amazing place! It’s like a quiet oasis - 50 meters from the main road everything is quiet, relaxed and almost a separate world. At the same time it’s close to the beach, shops, cafés and all the attractions of Arugam Bay. Both the bungalows and the rooms are very nice, with A/C and en suite bathrooms. Food is excellent with generous servings, and in the evenings there is live music in the bar/café. The pool is nice and shaded by trees, and there are several yoga classes and massage sessions every day. Sharon and her excellent team run the place with a combination of a welcoming atmosphere and quiet efficiency. (It’s been in her family for many years, and many of the staff have been there for decades.) It’s a bit more pricey than many other places in Arugam Bay, but well worth it! I can’t see any reason to stay anywhere else in Arugam Bay (some of us were returning for the seventh or eighth time!)

Lovely & a delightful experience, the staff is hands on, the food is fresh & the rooms are clean, beautiful green property, feels like a jungle with the beach across the street & not to forget the lovely host Sangeeta - she’s so many stories to tell.

We arrived at the hotel after searching for a place to stay, it is a hotel that really feels like an escape from the noise of Arugam, in the evenings you can hear noise from the businesses outside. The rooms are clean and spacious in a tropical area, so friends can enter the room, but the staff immediately takes care of it. The pool is maintained and we completely had a quiet and pleasant corner. But what made the experience so great was the welcome of Rashika who took care of our every request during the stay and all the other staff, always smiling and helping. I have never come across such a team. And don't give up on the Chaturi massage! Magic hands!

My second time here and it was even better. Exceptional accommodation, great food and fantastic entertainment. Sharon and her staff deserve all the plaudits for the exceptional manner in which they run this place. The staff organised a tuk-tuk for us for a day at the beach and gave us great tips of other good local restaurants and attractions to try. Hideaway used to be a seasonal go to but I’ve been here off season and it’s just as good. My wife and I loved our time there. Thanks folks, we’ll be back!

What a wonderful place at the busy bay. If you search a calm place, with tasteful rooms and an excellent kitchen, you have to stay here. Sharon and her team have not only created a place in a very beautiful ambience, with lots of loving details, but also a special atmosphere that you won't find anywhere else in the bay. I have mentioned the excellent restaurant already, they serve tasteful and innovative meals with worldwide influences and is the best in the region. Don’t miss to visit Sharon’s shop, it contains tasteful and special things that you can't find everywhere. Thank you. We stayed here again after many years, it got even better.

We stayed at Hideaway for a week we loved our non ac room and elected to stay there even though we were offered an ac bungalow when one came available. We had a private cool veranda to enjoy the squirrels monkeys and birds from The staff were incredibly helpful and friendly going out of their way to make us feel at home Sharon , the owner took a personal interest in all her guests welcoming them at breakfast time and ensuring everything ran smoothly It was handy to the beautiful beach but also a nice refuge for the bustle outside the gates We highly recommend this hotel
