The value for money was excellent and the pools settings was spectacular. I'd like to thank the staff for their patience with me and serving me well during my time there. Travelling solo the other guests were very welcoming and it felt like a little family home. The meals were very well priced, huge portions and super cheap which made a massive difference to the other local places and saved me a ton on money.

The beds were not so comfortable and I think there could have been a better system in place to avoid mosquitoes, but that's nature for you! One thing i will comment on which made some misunderstandings were that when you book "pool view" you do not get a view of the pool. Instead the property has two places to stay "garden side" and "pool side" So actually even if you're on the pool side you may not get a view of the pool. The location is also not in Arugambay, it's in Whiskey Point about 15 min drive outside of Arugambay. This was fine for me as I had my bike, but for anyone else it might get expensive to get tuk tuk back and to for the local attractions of Arugambay.

We arrived and were able to check in early. The staff were all very friendly and happy to help. They organised bike hire which was perfect because the accommodation is approximately 20 minutes ride from Arugam bay. The room was basic with an outdoor bathroom and there is a restaurant on site. We didn’t eat much from here but the breakfast and noodles were nice. The pool was lovely and relaxing and you can walk straight onto the beach which was basically a private beach!

It was far away from any other restaurants but this was fine because we had the bike. Not really a negative but it would be great to add a drinks menu to know what drinks are available. The staff made us fruit juices & water but these weren’t on the menu. Overall we had a lovely relaxing stay.

Place is superb with friendly staff. We had tasty local meals with nice quantity of food except fried chicken. Cook was very friendly man in his mid sixties. Rooms has enough space & well maintained. Overall experience was great.

Pool wasn't well maintained & saw some insects inside the water.

Absolutely loved my stay at Paper Moon Kudlis! The quality of the food was exceptional—fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The rooms were clean, spacious, and had a cozy vibe that made me feel right at home. Having direct beach access was a huge plus, and the pool was spotless and perfect for relaxing. The service was outstanding; the staff went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. Highly recommend this place for a peaceful and enjoyable getaway! 🌴✨

The staff here are so great! Mr Raja was so helpful and very friendly, we got looked after so well! The location is outside of Arugam Bay and it’s around a 20min bike ride into town but we preferred just chilling at the resort during the day, it was very peaceful. The restaurant onsite was reasonably priced too. The facilities here are good but the bathroom could do with a bit of rework.

Mostly the staff was very friendly and they treat their guests very good. The food was very delicious and the fruits and vegetables are very fresh the place has spread through a large area the cabana type houses were very spacious and very much worth the price one of the best we had in our trip highly recommended.

Fantastic location right on the beach! Nice restaurant with decent food!! Could work on the food a little perhaps but it’s not bad!! Great pool!! Great view from the pool and very peaceful area!

I had a very bad mattress!! My partner and I eventually got a second room at the first rooms mattress sounded like a bomb dropped every time one of us moved so decided to stay separately… turns out the second room had a great mattress… so perhaps next time I should just have complained.

What an amazing place! On a fantastic beach (Whiskey Bay) away from the hustles of Arugam bay 10km down the road. Staff were amazing, food cooked to order and great flavours, swimming pool, even has a bar! Spent two nights on our travels around Sri Lanka but wish we could have spent longer. This is a place we will definitely return to. Fantastic value for money, off the beaten track, our sort of heaven.

Paper Moon Kudils 1 surpasses Section 2, excelling in both privacy and environmental considerations. The serene ambiance at the hotel is truly commendable. We thoroughly enjoyed the tranquil atmosphere, creating a perfect backdrop for a relaxing holiday. The culinary experience was delightful, with great food offerings. The staff provided excellent service, contributing to an overall exceptional and serene vacation for us!

While our stay had its highlights, there are a few areas for improvement. The landscaping, particularly around the pool, could benefit from enhancements, as it didn't appear well-maintained during our visit. At first glance, the property may seem a bit undervalued in comparison to the price paid. However, these are relatively minor concerns that, if addressed, could elevate the overall guest experience.

Staff was the highlight for me. I had some issues with my car during our stay, staff went above and beyond to help me out. Even though we were away from home, and home town, they made us feel right at home. Food, location, and everything in general was good.
