About

Mellow Hostel is totally got inspired from the mellow waves in Sri Lanka. A mellow wave is such a wave; you know it when you see it. It breaks soft and sweet, a glassy line appears before it mushes everything away. It is soft but rich at the same time well-matured as wines, full-flavored from ripeness as fruit. It is a gentle, compassionate close friend. This was the vibe we were looking for to grow in Mellow Hostel.

Things are quite mellow here in the hostel as it is a pretty common feeling in Sri Lanka. We really tried hard to make a mellow space not a place where you feel highly connected to people, the earth and the ocean. We tried to use all the decoration from island based or recycled materials.

Mellow Hostel Sri Lanka provides private room and brings together like minded people that are sharing the joy of riding the waves, meditating, practicing yoga, trying something fresh and embracing the nature.

Come and join us to mellow out in this beautiful place!

Michael was really helpful and the vibe of the restaurant is really good. It is also next to Kabalana beach, very good for chilling and surfing. Locker spaces can be improved.

Best hostel I stayed in the whole of my trip to Sri Lanka. Ended up coming back 2 more times. Run by a lovely bunch of Sri Lankan people, only a few meters away from the beach. I loved the spacious concrete bunks, super comfy and very private. Top cleanliness in the bathroom, I felt at home that's why I came back. It's also a digital nomad place and attracts a not so young crowd which I liked. Cafe is a bit expensive but very good coffee and food, option for good food at the café next door also.

The room was very nice. The man who was there looking after the property was so lovely. He got up at 2:30am to make sure we got our taxi to the safari. He was amazing throughout our stay. The dog is lovely too
