Whisky Point Resort, hotel in Arugam Bay

Located in Pottuvil and with Whiskey Point reachable within 98 feet, Whiskey Point Resort features a restaurant, nonsmoking rooms, free WiFi and a garden.

Whisky point is such a special place and I am so glad that I stayed here. The resort itself is beautiful and the perfect place to escape and disconnect. The staff are all amazing and very welcoming. As a solo female traveller I felt very at home and could have stayed much longer. The food is also delicious, from pasta to pizza and homemade banana bread! The first couple of days I was working remotely and I found it very comfortable with good wifi. After that I spent most of my time relaxing on the beach and enjoying the peaceful tranquility and good vibes. I 100% recommend.

All the rooms were clean, there were only a few so a nice quiet and relaxed atmosphere. Set in a lush garden and less than a minutes walk to the beach. Mohamed was a very sweet man and was constantly bringing me small snacks, anywhere from cakes to chicken and chili pastries, that his mom had made fresh for the guests. Very accommodating and lovely family that own and run lucky!

    It's a place for beach lovers and surfers.

    It's a place for beach lovers and surfers. Further not that spectaculair place to stay, lot is outdated and overprized. For nature lovers is Kumana the place to be and for that reason you stay in Arugam Bay. One village further is Panama, with a little accommodation to stay.

    It is a must destination for any traveller who is interested in surfing. There are shops to buy your needs and many more. You can find good restaurants where they serve meals at any time. Kumana the wild life sanctuary for birds is nearby to where you can arrange transport at Arugumbay. Apart from birds, crocodiles. Leopards. Bears and elephants can be sighted. Though this is situated at east coast there are places where you can observe sunsets as well.

    We had a great stay at Dream Garden in Arugam Bay! The staff was friendly and accommodating, particularly the guy at the restaurant and the cook who were just lovely. Our room was decent, and we appreciated the comfortable bedding. The food was amazing! The kitchen makes their own pizza, and the cook is great at advising what to eat. The pool was nice, although the water was a bit warm due to the heat. The hotel is located a bit far away from the hustle and bustle of town, which was great for a relaxing stay.

    Breakfast was good staff were great and really helped us settle in showing us the area and sorting out surf lessons etc. The pool was great and all the facilities were functioning. Great location for whisky point. With water safari available nearby. About 20 minutes from Arugam Bay by tuk tuk for about 2000 rps if you fancy a noisy night out on the beachfront. Overall though the hotel was good and more importantly the staff were exceptional.
