Really beautiful hostel and super clean! It’s tucked away from the town but nice to be in a quiet and peaceful spot, and is an easy tuk tuk ride to Unawatuna and Galle. The owner is super lovely and happy to help out!

All! Everything is so great. They have curtains in all bunk beds, AC is working properly and the bathroom is so clean. Best place to stay around Ahangana. The location where it is located is calm but 10 min walk from the center. Pool are is so good to relax, chill and read a book.

If you're seeking an unforgettable stay in Sri Lanka, look no further than Singha Lounge! Their hostel isn't just a place to rest; it's a home away from home. From the second I stepped through their doors, I was embraced by Judith and Isuru's warmth and genuine care. The family's hospitality was beyond compare - they made sure every moment was comfortable and enriching. Their two adorable kids and one special repeat visitor from Denmark became the cherry on top of this holiday :) Judith's delicious cooking classes and homemade meals, and the engaging conversations truly made my trip unforgettable. Staying here didn't just offer accommodation; it provided an authentic experience and a sense of belonging. For an enriching and heartwarming Sri Lankan experience, this hostel with its exceptional host family is an absolute must!

A very welcoming and completely renovated property surrounded by greenery, very close to "Jungle Beach," a unique experience that immerses you in the true culture of Sri Lanka. Although the hostel is not currently on Google Maps, and therefore difficult to find, there is a Tuc Tuc service offered by the host who will take you from the first hostel, "Oops," to "Hanuman Heights"! Very nice! Definitely an experience to try at least once in your life.

I stayed at Omnia a total of about 3 weeks. I loved everything about the place. It was super clean, well maintained, the cafe was AMAZING. I tried almost everything on the menu and there was not one thing that I did not love. The best part of this place by far was the staff. This place is run by a group of awesome, caring, helpful, and genuinely kind guys. Everything from scooter renting, surf lessons, taxi booking, to even suggestions about beaches and local places were helped with by these guys. The staff are the reason I spent most of my Sri Lanka trip at this hostel. Rooms have AC, Bathrooms and showers are very clean. I am a hot shower person so I was a little worried about that not being available at Omnia, but honestly I didn't even feel it was needed because it's so hot outside anyways! When I finally left it felt like I was leaving a place that became home to me and the staff made me feel like I was family to them. I will 100% be coming back to Omnia to stay next time I come to Sri Lanka!

The hostel was very clean especially the washrooms and it was definitely value for money since the location was central to all the attractions I wanted to visit. The hostel included an old age arrack bar which was a great addition as I was traveling by myself. Highly recommend this place as it is convenient and provides great accommodation and hospitality for affordable prices.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
