    הכל!!! החדר ענק הבריכה נקייה. מקום להתפנק בו לגמריי! המלון הכי טוב בארוגם. אנשי הצוות נחמדים מאוד ונתנו לנו להישאר אפילו עוד לילה.

    לדעתי המחיר יקר מידי למזרח.

    Great place to hang out for a few days! Plenty of spaces great pool. Attached to a great restaurant and coffee place

    Bit on the expensive side - but you know this when booking.

    Exceptional hotel, service and stay.

    Exceptional stay in Arugam Bay In my opinion, The Spice Trail is the best place to stay in Arugam Bay. Beautiful, spacious and spotless rooms, super comfortable beds, a fantastic pool, and an amazing location — right in the heart of town, yet completely peaceful inside. The breakfast is excellent, with a great selection of dishes and drinks. Above all, the staff are exceptional. When my daughter became ill, they cared for her like family, preparing special food and drinks and helping with everything we needed. It’s not cheap, but worth every dollar. Perfect for anyone looking for comfort, luxury and peace. If I could give more than 10, I would.

    The only downside is that once you’re there, you may not want to leave the hotel and explore Arugam Bay!

    Luxury & bohemian vibes 10/10

    The property is in an amazing location in arugam bay, right by the restaurants & seafront. The pool is lovely with trees, a real bohemian vibe. Our hotel villa bedroom and bathroom were huge so spacious and we had a private garden also. The staff were so helpful with luggage, booking activities and generally being warm and welcoming. I celebrated my birthday whilst staying in Spice Trail and the staff did a lovely surprise in my hotel room, hung up a happy birthday banner, gave me a bottle of wine with ribbon tied on it and also got me a delicious cake from a bakers! Really made my birthday feel special.

    Gorgeous stay at Spice Trail

    We had an amazing week at Spice Trail! The rooms are huge and well appointed, with an outdoor area including an outdoor shower. The pool is lovely and the staff were awesome. The breakfast is good at the restaurant on the property. It’s perfectly located within Arugam Bay right in the middle of town but quiet enough for relaxing.

    Everything was great!
