A gloriously laidback paradise in Arugam Bay

Hideaway Resort

Arugam Bay

BackBack

Set just across the road from the main surfing beach, Hideaway is a boutique guesthouse in Arugam Bay that was formerly a beloved holiday home. It still has a homely atmosphere and Sharon, the owner, runs it with a holistic approach. Sustainability and conservation are undoubtedly part of their ethos: aside from cultivating their own organic produce and establishing a water-bottle refill policy, they also launched the ‘Arugam Bay Beach Clean-Up Scheme’. Hideaway consists of 14 rooms altogether: 5 in the Main Villa, 6 Double Bungalows, 2 Garden Bungalows and one Family Bungalow.

The main villa sits amongst wonderful tropical gardens, resembling a wildlife bungalow in a juxtaposing beach setting, with open verandas on both storeys. As well as the five rooms on the upper floor, there is also a living and dining area on the ground floor, furnished with comfortable chairs and cushioned ledges, and a garden complete with flowerbeds and a vegetable patch. There are also six whitewashed, thatched-roofed cabanas which offer more privacy including a bungalow designed especially for families with small children.

Rooms
