Such a beautiful place to stay! Quiet and surrounded by forest. Right at the edge of the lake. Just be advised, the hostel is about 2+km from the town and the beach. The owner is super friendly. He really goes out of his way to make guests feel welcome. Free drinking water to refill your bottles. Bicycles to borrow to go into town. Lots of great small additions that make this place really special.

Our stay at White House was absolutely amazing, the best place we stayed in Sri Lanka by a mile. The room was spotless, incredibly spacious, and comfortable. We spent five days here and genuinely didn’t want to leave. The highlight of our stay was the host, who treated us like a family and made us feel so welcome. His hospitality and a big smile were unmatched, and we are truly grateful for everything. Thank you so much for making our stay so special. We’ll definitely be back soon!

Perfect location right across the main Galle bus station. convenient access to the old fort and sites around Galle. Also a great spot to do day trips to beaches in the South.

The garden is incredible. It feels like you are in the jungle but you are actually 3-5 minutes tuc tuc (0.6€) away from the beach and Galle fort. If I am back in the city this will be my hostal again.

This is really good hostel. Nice clean rooms. We lived in a common room: the fan, lamp, sockets are all working properly and work on each bed. The common living room is cozy. In the common kitchen there are dishes, a stove, a refrigerator, and drinking water. The hostel has a laundry service.

All hostels in Hikkaduwa

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
