Secret Paradise is a beautiful wooden cabin surrounded by nature right by the sea. Malika and her family make sure everything is perfect – from cleanliness and service to excellent local cuisine. It’s a very peaceful place to relax, yet close to more touristy areas like Arugam Bay (about 20 minutes by tuk-tuk). We’ll come back as soon as we can, it was amazing!!!

I was given a very warm welcome by the owner of the property and the staff. Owner very knowledgeable about wildlife in Sri Lanka, gave me excellent advice to plan my trips. Nice setup, very comfortable bed, clean bathroom. Staff were very helpful and accommodating. Had tasty Sri Lankan meals prepared to my choice. All in all had a very pleasant stay. Thank you.

Great stay for us. The team that run the hotel were really good. Swimming on the Panama beach every morning before breakfast was magic, the food was great. The room facilities were great as well. This is the nearest hotel resort to the Kumana National Park entrance. Few mins drive to the Arugam Bay Surfing beach. We will be back!

Best hosts ever! We are really lucky that we found this place. We really enjoyed our room, the sound of the ocean, and more then all - the very kind hosts of this place! We stayed for two weeks and really felt like it’s our little home in Sri Lanka, breakfast was great and we got all help we needed and beyond from the hosts. This is really all you can ask for!! I recommend from all my heart!

A hidden gem! My husband and me loved this place. The host is very welcoming and will help with anything. We've been there for a whole month and couldn't ask for more: fully equipped kitchen, sleeping room with air con, an own backyard with lots of palm trees, beautiful sunrises and a big deck upstairs. The house is actually at the beach, so you can watch the ocean anytime. Highly recommend if you are looking for a quiet and peaceful place.

Secret Bay Panama

Arugam Bay (Near Panama)

Secret Bay Panama is a beachfront property set in Arugam Bay, 12 km from Kudumbigala Monastery and 14 km from Crocodile Rock.

The comfort is simple but everything you need is there: clean toilets, fridge, large open-air shower with good water pressure, and electric sockets in the rooms. Exactly what we were looking for — the feeling of being alone in a small paradise of nature. An endless beach with no one around, a starry sky at night, and a stunning sunrise over the ocean for early risers. Extras like a beach volleyball court with ball available, hammocks, and very attentive staff made the stay even better. The owner also organized two unforgettable activities for us: one of the best safaris we had in Sri Lanka at Kumana National Park, and a peaceful boat trip on the Panama lagoon, which felt like friends showing us around their home.

The Homestay is in the middle of nature but only 20 min Away from Arugam bay 🌿🦎 The Family who lives there is super lovely, the Host even showed us around the area and we saw Leopard and crocodile prints, we learned a lot from him that day. And of course the view from the huts is really beautiful. The Elephants you can See from the balcony and the Stars at Night truely makes staying here a once in lifetime experience. 10/10 would very much recommend 💕☺️

    This is my favourite place to stay in Arugam Bay! The accommodation is beautiful, and the staff are incredibly kind. They made our stay the best in Sri Lanka so far! The rooms were spotless, and the bed was very comfortable. Breakfast was delicious, and all the guys who run this place are amazing! You can enjoy and relax in the stunning natural surroundings here. They have very experienced wildlife guides who provided us with an unforgettable safari. Surfing is also an option here. Have fun, surf lovers!
