Our stay in the Spice Trail - Arugam Bay has been wonderful. I’m travelling with my husband & brother. Our rooms have A/C and are spotlessly clean, and refreshed daily by the same friendly man. All the staff on site are extremely polite and friendly. The gardens are stunning. We have breakfast most days here in the hotel, Dharsan has been wonderful. Always available to help with meal choices and assist with any questions. He is a superstar. His English is great, a really lovely chap! ( I’m not sure when he has a day off, as he always seems to be available! ) It’s taken some adjus**ent to get use to the tropical heat here in Srilanka, when we booked I thought a pool would be important but we love to swim in the sea, the pool water is hotter than I have a bath at home. I can’t rate The Spice Trail highly enough, the staff and accommodation are fantastic. I highly recommend. We are very happy.

Recently we spent a few nights staying at the "Spice Trail" villas in Arugam Bay and it was such a nice experience. The staff were great , the accommodation was amazing and the food served up by Prasanna and Dharshan from Little Bang Kitchen 👌

Everything is excellent at this place. The pool, gardens and location are great. The rooms are spacious and clean. The food was great and fresh. Staff are amazing. Genuinely happy and they all work really hard to keep you happy and the place tidy. We had a truly great time here and felt welcome. Wifi in the room was non existent (rooms 10 and 11) so that’s the only negative.

Incredible hospitality from Leo and the rest of the hotel staff. Very friendly and always willing to help. The property itself is outstanding. Beautiful pool, and nice, well kept trees and plants everywhere. Our room was very big, clean and spacious as well. Only a 2 minute walk from your room to the beach. Good food in the restaurant too. Highly recommend 10/10.

The venue was nice however when we came back from dinner around 9pm there was a frog in the bathroom. We tried to contact the owner about this but no answer which meant my wife couldn’t use the bathroom. After this I tried to go to reception but no-one was at the front desk and it was not even 10pm. The dogs then proceeded to bark loudly but no-one was around to pay attention. The frog entered our room which made it very difficult to sleep. Avoid this location at all costs if you don’t want frogs in your room. The bar was also closed for no apparent reason and the staff did not understand any dietary requirements. This whole experience has put us off Argaum Bay

Although this was quiet season and the rains were prevalent , The Spice Trail was a delight to stay at. The staff were all friendly and relaxed but attentive without being intrusive. Our favourite staff member was Marshall the meet and greet pooch. Our room was a little sanctuary and very spacious. The shower a treat. the food was yummy and although options were limited , I am sure in busier times it would be fabulous. Would definitely stay again when in Aragumbay . Thanks @Spice Trail.

Spice Trail in Arugam Bay is super for surf lovers and nature fans. Super close to Arugambe Beach and not far from Kumana National Park, it's the perfect spot for a cool getaway. The place is super clean, and the staff who work there are really friendly. Can go into surfing, the beach is right there, ready for some awesome waves,. After riding the surf, can come back to a chill and cozy hotel. Spice Trail is close to Kumana National Park. Can take a tour and there is very high chance to spot a Sri Lanka leopards and some cool local wildlife. About the food – it's delicious! The restaurant has a bunch of tasty dishes with local flavors and as well as international dishes. ++ Hotel is perfect for families too, offering a well-maintained pool for a relaxing and enjoyable stay. Spice Trail isn't just a regular hotel; it's like your surfing and nature dream come true, this place is a must-try! Highly recommended!
