Solo travelerSigiri Serenity Hostel is the best place I have stayed during my whole trip. The hostel is super clean, with big beds, nice outside area and fast wifi (even during a powercut in the village) Lahiru is an amazing host that will take care of you with coconuts, juices and providing the best service. If you need a tour, safari or taxi he is the person to speak to. Will come back for sure!

Solo travelerThis hostel is brand new, so everything is still fresh and spotless. The dorms are spacious, and the beds are very comfortable! What really sets this place apart, in my opinion, is the amazing service from the owner. He’s a wonderful host who drove me around during my stay, picking me up and dropping me off wherever I needed. He also arranges tours and even took me to Sunset Rock. Highly recommended: the breakfast. It’s delicious, freshly prepared, and definitely worth it. Absolutely recommended!
