About

If you wish to surf, do some yoga, eat great food, drink good coffee or just generally chill, Hangtime Hostel is the place for you.

The ground floor double rooms have a separate balcony, private bathroom with hot water and the option of A/C for 2000rs/night. You will always feel like you are in Sri Lanka, as the beds are made from ex Sri Lankan fishing boats. Don't worry, they have been cleaned. If the boats aren't what you fancy we also have two rooms that are a standard double room.

The 1st floor dorm rooms are separated into a 4 bed female dorm and 6 bed mixed dorms which come with AC. The combination of natural materials, old fishing rope and locally painted art on the walls which all overlook the beautiful surf beach scattered with boats give constant reminders of where you are. All dorms have private bathrooms with hot water.

The rooftop cafe/restaurant is the place to get a great barista coffee in the morning, a fresh juice or salad for lunch and sushi for dinner. The 360 degree views of the beach and jungle show the beauty of this amazing country.

The hostel is beautiful and at a very sweet location. However the stay turned out not to be not so good. The geyser wasn't working in the room, the entry to the hostel has a particular lengthy code you need to remember or note somewhere to save yourself from getting stranded and late nights and additional unpleasant experience was that in a already booked 2 nights stay, the 2nd morning they woke us up from the sleep and asked to checkout abruptly as the dorm had some electrical work to be done.

I think you have to have good roommates who are into socialising to really enjoy the atmosphere here. I was lucky I had two friendly roommates, but before this it was not very social. Spread across numerous levels, the cafe is always busy which is good but mostly with outsiders. The beds were big but not the most comfortable, each bed did have mosquito nets and charging points which was a bonus.
