Arugambay Roccos in Arugam Bay, Sri Lanka

Arugambay Roccos

Arugambay Roccos is a modern hotel built on the sand at Arugam Bay, shaded and cooled by coconut and neem trees. The design is based on the cube shape, and the Arugam Bay surf point is a short walk away.

Planning your stay

Arugam Bay is on the east coast, a long drive from Colombo, so many travellers combine it with Ella or Yala. The best surf and the driest weather on this coast come from about April to October, while from November the town is much quieter.

Things to do nearby

Surf the main point, try Whiskey Point, take a Pottuvil lagoon safari or a Panama lagoon safari.

How to Get There

Arugambay Roccos is at the southern end of Arugam Bay. From Bandaranaike International Airport it is about 320 km by road, about 7 and a half hours, travelling either through the hill country or via the Southern Expressway and Monaragala, both long but scenic drives.

Coming from central Colombo instead, allow 7 hours 15 minutes for roughly 300 km.

To keep arrival simple, ask us for a private transfer with a chauffeur who meets you outside arrivals. You can keep the car for touring afterwards. Allow extra time at weekends and on public holidays, when the roads out of Colombo are busier.
