    Clean and well-appointed rooms with comfortable beds - right at the beach in a central location in Arugam Bay. The staff was exceptional - providing excellent service. I loved the complimentary 7.00AM coffees and the entertaining and courteous staff.

    Cleanliness was top-notch - rooms were spotless and well-maintained. Perfectly located right in the heart of town - just steps away from the beach. The friendly staff provided great local insights and made our stay even more enjoyable. The Mexican food at the restaurant was absolutely delicious - a must-try!

    Would definitely recommend.

    The hotel's location is excellent, right in the middle of town and on the beach edge. It's convenient for activities like surf lessons at Baby Point. the outdoor restaurant provides shade and is right on the beach. the staff is amazing, going above and beyond to provide exceptional service. the food is excellent, with a delicious fish BBQ that is highly recommended. the hotel also has a laundry service and WiFi in the main rest area.

    The room lacked some amenities, such as a hair dryer. the stay was fantastic and the staff made everything effortless.

    The location of this hotel is absolutely incredible! Right by the beach and in the heart of the village, it couldn't have been better. The staff is amazing and super kind, always ready to assist. The food is delicious, with a wide variety to choose from. The family room was very nice and comfortable. Being able to try the seafood BBQ right out front was a fantastic experience. a truly mind-blowing stay!

    Our stay at Water Edge in Arugambay was definitely worth the money. The room was clean and comfortable, and the location right by the beach was perfect. The staff went above and beyond to ensure we had a great time and provided excellent service.

    The breakfast option could use some improvement, especially the coffee.
