Guest Reviews
- Layal (7/5): -
- Anastasia (9/5): Would recommende - Really enjoyed our 8 night stay at the Nuga House. Staff, food, rooms, pool were all highlights. Would not hesitate to book. A few touch ups there and there would make it a solid 10/10
- Dror (10/5): נחזור שוב בטוח - הארוחת בוקר הייתה מעולה , החדרים היו נקיים ומרווחים חדר משפחה גדול ויפה מקלחת גדולה , בריכה יפה ונקיה הילדים נהנו מאוד , עשינו יוגה ב 8:30 היה מעולה , ארוחת צהריים אכלנו במלון ולפעמים גם ערב , היה מושלם תודה
- Pooja (9/5): Sweetest staff! Great food! Cozy rooms! - The property was so soothing and calm, absolutely loved it! Everything was great, no complaints.
- Steffen (9/5): Schöner Aufenthalt am Kabalana Beach - Grundsätzlich ist es ein wirklich Schönes Hotel in einer guten Lage am Kabalana Beach. Bis nach Ahangama rein kann man sich ein Tuk Tuk für 5 Minuten nehmen. Das Hotel kann auch Fahrer vermitteln.
Das Restaurant hat einen schönen lockeren Vibe, das Essen ist super lecker und Kaffee spitze. Das Frühstück ist von der Karte und richtig gut.
Die Zimmer sind an sich gut, gepflegt und wir hatten keine Viecher.
Es gibt ein Yoga-Angebot für tägliches Yoga.
Die Hotelmanagerin ist sehr freundlich und bemüht alles zu ermöglichen, so mussten wir einen Tag ein Zimmer verlängern und sie hat es uns ohne Aufpreis ermöglicht, wir sind dann quasi abends ausgecheckt.
Es wird täglich das Zimmer gereinigt. Die Anlage bräuchte meiner Meinung nach eine kleine Renovierung.
Die Zimmer sind zwar wirklich in Ordnung aber nicht so schön neu wie auf den Bildern. Außerdem sind die Zimmer recht klein, sodass man nicht wirklich viel Stauraum für Koffer etc. hat. Wenn man zu zweit und ohne Kinder reist, ist das wahrscheinlich kein Problem, aber mit Kindern wird’s in den Zimmern etwas eng.
Die Handtücher haben leider ein bisschen gerochen, die Toilette war nicht richtig im Boden verankert (hat gewackelt beim drauf setzen) und die Zimmertür lies sich nicht richtig verschließen. Dies habe ich den Mitarbeitern am ersten Tag mitgeteilt, man sagte mir ein Hausmeister würde kommen und es reparieren. Aber das ist leider nicht passiert.
Das Personal spricht leider nicht besonders gut Englisch, sodass richtige Absprachen eigentlich nur mit der Managerin getroffen werden können (dann klappt es). Wenn sie aber nicht da ist, dann wird’s schwieriger.

- Fernanda (4/5): - The location is great, situated in a really nice area of Ahangama and just a short walk to the beach. The physical property itself is lovely. My room was very comfortable and clean. The common areas were also well-maintained, and I really appreciated the beautiful touch of the staff bringing in fresh flowers to the shared spaces every day. Unfortunately, the management and hidden fees completely ruined the vibe of my stay. First, despite my Booking.com reservation stating I could pay via credit card at the hotel, the property shared my credit card details with a third-party company that charged an unexpected 4% fee on top of my agreed rate. I was told I could pay at the property to be reimbursed, but when I asked the manager to cancel the third-party charge so I could pay with my card at the desk, she was incredibly dismissive. She refused to take my credit card and told me to go to an ATM to get cash instead. The whole payment process felt deceptive and like a scam.
Secondly, the property advertises itself as a "yoga hotel" with daily classes. However, they fail to mention on their profile that these classes cost extra. While they clearly state that things like surfboard rentals are an additional charge, the yoga fees are completely hidden until you arrive. Combined with staff who were generally unwelcoming, these deceptive practices overshadowed what is otherwise a beautiful building. I would not return.

- James (9/5): Great place near the beach - It was a very peaceful location and the room was very comfortable
- Miriam Angiuli (10/5): - Struttura incredibilmente accogliente, camere ampie e pulite dotate di tutti i comfort. Colazione squisita con diverse opzioni. Possibilità di effettuare lezioni di yoga quotidiane....Posizioni buona e vicina a spiaggia e ristoranti. Atmosfera magica e rilassante.... tappa fondamentale del vostro viaggio in Sri Lanka.
- Linda (10/5): Fantastisk familjär stämning bland gäster och personal - Toppenbra läge nära kabalana strand men inte direkt vid vägen. Fint och ombonat med välinredda bungalows. Mycket bra restaurang för frukost lunch och middag, populär bland turister men inte överfull. Fantastiska yogalektioner med välutbildade lärare i en shala med luftkonditioneringen. Bäst av allt är ändå personalen som alltid gör det lilla extra i köket i städer och i bemötandet. En mycket familjär atmosfär där man känner sig mer som familj än en anonym gäst. Chefen för hotellet för alltid det lilla extra och är väldigt tillmötesgående, inget är ett problem för henne utan hon löser allt! Fantastiskt boende!
- Alessia (9/5): - Camera spaziosa e letto comodo.
Buona la colazione anche se con poca scelta dal menù alla carta.
A due passi dalla spiaggia. La piscina era sporca.
- Sharp (10/5): - Absolutely everything, what an amazing and relaxing place to stay!
- Lonneke (10/5): Very good area, amazing people, very comfortable. Would definitely recommend it. - Everything is amazing, very comfortable stay. Pleasing for the eyes & the people are incredible. Super helpful & friendly.

Outside of the madness of ahangama
Nice owners Mosquitosss

- Huanbing (10/5): - Very friendly staff and wonderful yoga class. The rooms are spacious.
- Colette (9/5): Heel lekker plekje! - Mega comfortabele kamer, ruim opgezet en lekker met een eigen zitje, met zowel een airco als een fan! T zwembad is aan de kleine kant, maar wel heel lekker na een dag strand voor nog even een snelle duik! Van mij mag t kopje koffie al iets eerder beschikbaar zijn!
- Boyan (9/5): - Rustige plek in Ahangama. Mooie huisjes met een schone badkamer en goede bedden. Ontbijt was ook heerlijk! -
- Nienke (10/5): - Loved the bar, cappuccino was amazing! Rooms were clean and well decorated. Lovely hot shower and the pool was an absolute plus!

- Paula (10/5): Exceptional -
- Eleanor (6/5): Pleasant - Great friendly staff and delicious included breakfast. Walkable to Kabalana beach. Feels like it could do it with a refresh. More soft furnishings and decor in the room would make it feel less austere. There could also be more comfy places to sit near the pool.
- Schirin (10/5): Exceptional - Staff was super nice and helpful
- Amandine (9/5): Superb - Gorgeous rooms, loved the aesthetics and vibe here. Friendly staff, delicious food and attended a yoga class that was amazing!
- Vic (9/5): Beautiful little oasis with lovely friendly staff☺️ - Beautiful rooms, great showers, delicious food, friendly helpful staff Nothing
- Mia (8/5): Beautiful stay but be prepared to get Tuktuks into town - Beautiful B&B, rooms and communal area. The staff were so friendly and helpful. The bed was super comfy and the room felt like a little oasis. Also a great selection of breakfast choices! It was a little bit further out of town- we love to walk everywhere and whilst the distance was fine it was along a main road which felt a bit sketchy and we didn’t like walking along there
- George (10/5): Exceptional -
- Thea (7/5): Good -
- Caitlin (9/5): We loved our stay at Nuga House. The staff were so accommodating and kind. Breakfast was delicious - Great location, walking distance from Kabalana beach or 5 minute tuk tuk into Ahangama. Rooms were spacious and clean and the pool was lovely. The restaurant area was a really nice spot to chill out.
- Flossie (9/5): Superb - Amazing peaceful stay at The Nuga House. If you want a tranquil, clean and high quality stay in Ahangama, this is the place for you. Yoga classes are available every morning, they have a cafe onsite and a pool to cool down in the heat.
- Piyumi (8/5): Good - The water flow in the bathroom sink is really slow
- Cloé (10/5): Exceptional - Great and helpful staff, stylish & clean room, very central, and relaxing yoga classes. Would come back and recommend!
- Daniel (10/5): Exceptional - Lovely place with great staff... and the best coffee around! Situated far enough from the main coastal road (no noise!) and close enough to walk to a number of restaurants and the beach/surf A bit pricy (in high season at least).
- Riikka (10/5): Relaxed place with a delicious breakfast - Lovely place, amazing food and service. We really enjoyed our time here. Morning yoga was excellent and they helped with tuktuk. You need a Tuktuk to get to the town and there was a party place nearby so you might need ear plugs.
- Ashini (10/5): Hospitable and relaxing - The entire vibe of the property was great! We felt very welcome and comfortable Nothing in particular!
- Maria (6/5): Pleasant - It’s a nice atmosphere and very aesthetic good breakfast. The facilities weren’t really working.
- Victoria (9/5): Superb -
- Dafna (10/5): Exceptional -
- Péter (7/5): Nice stay, but you should be prepared for the animals :) - Supre nice staff, very good location however you'll still need a bike, or take a tuk tuk. Too close to the nature, there are huge gaps under the doors, we had 4 frogs in the room in 2 days.
- Noémi (10/5): Beginning of the rainy season at the Nuga House was fantastically peaceful and relaxing. - Really everything! The super friendly staff, beautiful, clean bungalow in a jungle-like green garden with a pool, early morning surfing and yoga, delicious breakfasts. We could not be happier!
- Judevajira (9/5): Superb -
- Marilena (8/5): Very good -
- Sophie (8/5): Beautiful property, just a short walk to the beach - Beautiful pool & facilities and yoga teachers. The staff were polite & attentive, always happy to help. Lovely breakfast included with plenty of options. A family of monkeys play in the trees which is wonderful to watch. Ahangama is a beautiful town to stay in I should have been more vigilant however assumed for the price I was paying yoga was included, bit of a shock at the end when checking out
- Olivia (8/5): Would come back! - Lovely room, pool area & yoga classes. Bathroom was hot and smelt a bit.
- Peiris (7/5): Good - The ambience. The fact that there was no electricity when we came. The water pressure when having a wash was a little low.
- Amelia (8/5): Fantastic stay - friendly staff, beautiful room and hotel and great location! - Lovely stay at Nuga House - the pool and faculties were great. Staff were so friendly and it’s a beautiful hotel! Struggled with the bugs inside the room but as expected for Sri Lanka!
- Stefanie (8/5): Great place with super friendly staff - Beautiful rooms, yoga shala and cafe. The staff was super friendly and highly responsive to any requests. Great yoga sessions. There was loud music on some nights from surrounding properties, so make sure to bring some earplugs if you are a light sleeper.
- Anton (10/5): Exceptional - Friendly and helpful staff. Quiet location. Super nice, clean rooms.
- Löfgren (8/5): Very good - Most of it was good, really helpful and friendly staff, safe, great breakfast. Clean and nice rooms, beautiful facilities.
- Pia (10/5): Lovely stay! - Super friendly staff, amazing breakfast, great location and nice yoga classes!
- Maria (8/5): Very good - Location is very good if you like Kabalana beach, which we loved - walking distance!
Breakfast is good and rooms are nicely decorated.
The convenience of the yoga classes was great and the class itself was amazing.
The room is cleaned every day. The room add a fridge but no water or anything else on it. Even though the property has a water bootle from where you can always take a glass, I think it would've been nice to have a bootle in the room to take to the beach on the next day.
The pillows were not very confortable in the room as well as the bed sheets.
- Helmi-riikka (10/5): Exceptional -
- Marina (8/5): Very good -

- Moa (9/5): Friendly yoga-place close to all different beaches in Ahangama. - Great atmosphere and nice staff. Situated close to many different beaches and places to go to in Ahangama and around. Great with the possibility to do yoga everyday. Very good and diverse breakfast. We liked everything but The yoga could have started earlier, like 7am.
- Ashlee (10/5): Exceptional - The team, vibe, food, pool, smoothie bowls, yogi breakfast, yin class and friendly TukTuk drivers who were nearby were all great.
Slightly random to leave in a review but even the branding was super cool haha! We purchased a shirt with the logo on it and wish it came as art prints.
- Thomas (10/5): Fantastic location with superb breakfast and nice rooms. - Superb spacious rooms, nice and friendly staff, great garden and restaurant. Feels really like an oasis.
- Linnéa (10/5): Exceptional - Our second time at Nuga house and we love it as much as we did the first time! The hotel manager and all the other staff is so friendly and is always available if anything. The best breakfast in Sri Lanka is included in the stay and they also have lunch in the café - really good food!! We will definitely be back!
- Cooray (9/5): Superb -

- Maximilian (10/5): Great relaxing place to go surfing, do yoga or just enjoy some days close by the beach. - Great place, really comfy room with a big bathroom which feels like outside. Absolut recommendation. Outside area is beautiful with a great pool and the best coffee in kabalana at the restaurant. Yoga facilities can be used free of charge outside yoga classes.
- Xavi (10/5): excellent - Very good location in the middle of vegetation. Comfortable and spacious rooms. Very friendly staff. Healthy breakfasts and good coffee.

- Anonymous (9/5): Superb - I had a great stay at Nuga house. The rooms are clean and nice. A/C and mosquito net provided, and towels. Everyday cleaning. Good Breakfast and 1 hot drink included. Filtered water for free. The cafe is open until 4pm. In the morning times there is a Yoga class to join. Beach is within reach. And there are a lot of places around to explore. The staff is amazing, and helps with every need.
Thank you!
- Jeanett (10/5): Exceptional - Super cute and comfortable hotel. They offered yoga at the hotel in the mornings wich was really nice. Breakfast was good and staff was really nice. The spot is perfect with everything close by in walking distance.
- Kader (10/5): After 16 trips to this area - This is the best place I have ever stayed at. - To put some perspective this is my 16th trip to Sri Lanka and the first time with a child. So I really know the different types of accommodation options available in this area. I was genuinely blown away by Nuga House. Just everything from the communications knowing we won’t be arriving until 1am, the big rooms, the little touches like lots of board racks to store your surf boards, outside showers so you don’t bring the sand into the room, food options, lots of storage in the rooms to organise yourself properly without it overtaking the room space, a yoga studio which I used to stretch between surf sessions, beyond friendly staff - they literally spoilt our daughter everyday. Plus the fact you are a 6 minute walk from a world class wave at Kabalana. The owner Ari is a kind and no mess about gentlemen and the girls handling the food and beverage plus bookings were exceptional. My family and me are beyond grateful with the way Nuga house took care of us. We plan to come back every year now and stay longer next time. Not really anything negative to say on this place.
- Maciej (10/5): Best off grid experience. Very Good overall deal for this price. - the vibe, in house yoga classes, food was good. staff was always helpfull in everything. music selection in the hotel was top. the location near Kabalana (Best overall Beach) was perfect. there could be a Beach towels in the room and one for the showers on the ground.
- Estel (10/5): Exceptional - We stayed in The Nuga House for four nights and at the end of our stay we didn't want to leave. It's the perfect place to stay in Kabalana, just 3 minutes away from the beach and very close to Ahangama. It's a small boutique hotel with only 6 rooms, an outdoors common area and beautiful gardens and a pool to relax on. The rooms are big, comfortable and beautifully decorated. Everything was clean and well maintained. The breakfast was amazing. They have so many options to choose from and all of the food is really fresh and tasty. The staff were super nice and helpful. They have daily yoga lessons in an amazing yoga shala overlooking its green and quiet surroundings. If you ask for it they can also arrange surf lessons for you. Overall we had an amazing experience and would definitely love to go back.
- Sasitha (8/5): Very good - I recently stayed at a place that I absolutely loved! The room was spacious and had a really unique rustic concrete interior design, which gave it a cool and stylish vibe. But the highlight of my stay was definitely the breakfast. I highly recommend trying the Shakshuka - my partner and my friend loved it so much, we made it at home after. Overall, my experience was fantastic and I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a great stay with a delicious breakfast. I found the pool to be small and not very clean, and the price a little steep. However, overall my stay was decent.
- Betzalel (7/5): graet place to be - amazing stuff and people, beautiful yoga spot, clean, location, food!!!
best place the bathroom was hard for us. they need to renew it but everything else is amazing .
- Sahar (10/5): Exceptional -
- Anonymous (10/5): Super nice stuff and a super nice property! Perfect to enjoy your holiday. - very beautifully and you immediately feel at home
- Shamila (7/5): Good -
- Nathalie (8/5): A lovely place, great staff, great breakfast. A bit remote from the main buzz. - Wonderful breakfast, lovely staff. Great to have the option of a nice Late coffee and alternative milk, even if you have to pay for it. The family room setting could be better as 3 beds are together forming a giant bed and one single bed next. So it was a bit weird for our daughter to be sleeping so close to us. The room is nice but a bit small, bathroom on the other end is very large. Hot shower only for the first one! The location is a bit away from the main buzz so walking or tuk tuk is necessary to go out.
- Nick (10/5): A perfect place to stay to experience Ahangama - Neus and her team (especially her friendly dog Tigger) we perfect hosts, we couldn’t have asked for more. Great atmosphere, good food, nice yoga facilities along with having connections with great surf coaches. We enjoyed our stay at Nuga house so much that we booked into their sister property Venus villa.
- Pip (10/5): Exceptional -
- Linnéa (10/5): Exceptional - Amazing place to start our four week vacation in Sri Lanka, we stayed for a week and everything was great! The staff is so lovely and can help out with recommendations of restaurants etc. the breakfast is amazing and the rooms have everything you need!!😃 we will definitely be back
- Kaygorodova (10/5): Stayed in this place one night, really liked the pool, the breakfast was the best one in Sri Lanka. Everyone who work in -
- Sue (10/5): I love staying here - beautiful design, great food, attentive staff, cute dogs
- Amir (10/5): Exceptional -
- Amit (10/5): Exceptional - Very nice staff and help with everything we wanted. Tuk tuk drivers are available and nice. Very clean, excellent rooms and an atmosphere of fun and relaxation in the air. highly recommend. Close to surfing beaches, restaurants and clubs. we loved.
- Rory (9/5): Superb - The hosts Neus and Avi were great - super helpful and friendly. Helped us organise whatever we needed. Rooms are clean and as advertised. The included breakfast (+coffee/tea) from 8-2pm was excellent. Could use some hanging racks/lines for wet clothes. There could be more places to sit outside/in the sun. Some afternoon yoga would be great!
- Navid1990 (5/5): Passable - The staff and the foods are great Location is far away from the pictures.
Pool is so small and not usable.
Its a little bit dirty.
- Zoe (9/5): Superb -
- Anne (9/5): We will come back ;-) - Nice and really welcoming place especially at this price point. As it was quite rainy when we came, hooks and lines in the room would have been useful in order to hang all the swimsuits, towels and clothes that needed to dry.
