People there are just amazing! Not just the staff, but also those who are staying with you in the accommodation. Location is beautiful. Dogs are sooo cute. We enjoyed our stay so much, we didn’t want to leave.

Really nice spacious place. It’s right on the beach and you can hear the waves while you lay in bed. The staff can help you with everything you want to do in Arugam Bay. We booked surf lessons, a safari, an rented a tuktuk through them. We took the tuktuk on a trip to the north they let us store our luggage at their place. It’s a little far away from the main street but within walking distance. Also, they are happy to arrange a tuktuk for you. I had a great stay and would stay here again for sure! Thanks for the great time!

One of the best accommodations we had in Sri Lanka. We stayed there for 2 nights but were really sorry we didn't stay longer in the end. The rooms are perfect for someone who wants to enjoy Arugam bay, stay close to all cafes, restaurants, as well as the beach, and still wants some comfort. The accommodation is located on the main street in Arugam Bay but somehow still closed off enough that it remains peaceful. The rooms were clean, bathroom and shower amazing, beds veeeery comfortable and the AC perfect. The curtains keep the light out really well which is great if you like to sleep in in the morning. The hosts are very kind and were constantly asking if we have everything we need. I will definitely stay here again if I come back to Arugam Bay!

We had a lovely 3 week stay at Forcus. The facilities are modern and well maintained, with a comfortable bed, nice bathroom with open shower, and a beautiful outdoor area with the garden to enjoy. The staff is amazing! Kevin and the rest of the crew work tireless to make sure we have everything we need. They do roomcleaning whenever we want, and help us with several services like laundry, bike rental, tuktuk, and taxi transport. When theyre not helping us, they attend to the garden to keep it beautiful. We loved the breakfast! They offer a variation of different food. Banana pancakes was our favourite. Locations is great, if you want to be close to everything. Some noise from close bars is expected, but it didnt bother us.

Location: The location is ideal.It's situated just a few hundred meters away from the main road (Potuvil - Panama) and the beach, giving you the best of both worlds. You get easy access to all the main surf points and town amenities, but you're far enough away to enjoy complete peace and quiet. It's the perfect tranquil escape after a day in the sun. The Room & Amenities: The room was fantastic—very spacious,spotlessly clean, and designed with comfort in mind. It was equipped with all the required amenities, and everything was in great working order. It truly felt like a home away from home. Overall Experience: I can't fault this place.For the comfort, space, and serene atmosphere, it offers incredible value. I would gladly give it a perfect 10 out of 10 for the room and overall experience. It’s a gem that provides a quiet, convenient, and comfortable base for your Arugam Bay adventures. I will definitely be returning on my next trip!

We spent a great week at Apple's place. He's is very kind and helpful, full of good advice. The breakfast is delicious. The place is convenient, super close to the beach and all the restaurants but still in a calm village road. We would definitely come back!

Clean room and wonderful staff. I had an injury and felt unwell during my trip, but Musa, one of the staff members, was always concerned about me. He arranged hospital visits and even prepared breakfast to suit my condition. I highly recommend this place.
