If being by the water is a major draw, Arugam Bay Beach is a spot you might want to check out, located 1 mi (1.6 km) from central Arugam Bay. If you want to continue walking by the waves, head to Pottuvil Point and Pasarichenai Beach.
After visiting Koneswaram Temple, make a plan to see the other sights and activities in Trincomalee. Wander the beautiful beaches in this relaxing area.
Though Base Hospital Dehiattakandiya might be what brings you to town, perhaps you'll have a chance to explore more of Dehiattakandiya while you are here.
If a restful vacation is part of your travel plans, Pottuvil Point might be the perfect place to seek out during your trip to Pottuvil. Make some time to visit the monuments while you're in the area.
"Loved the stay! They have upgraded us without an additional fee. All the staff are friendly and helpful. They clean the room twice a day (replenish and tidying). Very helpful when I lost my phone. Highly recommended "
"My stay at the Jetwing hotel in Pottuvil was nothing short of amazing. The individual cabana experience offered the perfect blend of privacy and comfort, surrounded by nature and just steps away from the most beautiful beach. Waking up to the sound of the waves and enjoying my peaceful morning walk along the shoreline became the highlight of my trip.
A special thank you to R. Darshika, Jehan, and Sadun, whose exceptional service made the experience even more memorable. Their warmth, professionalism, and attention to detail truly stood out and added a personal touch to my stay.
The atmosphere was tranquil, the service was outstanding, and the entire property felt like a hidden getaway designed for true relaxation. I can’t wait to come back and explore more of what this incredible place has to offer. Highly recommended!"
"Staff were incredibly professional and responsive. The room was only a 2 minute walk to the beach and was very clean. For meals, we frequently had Manoj as our server, who was very attentive and knowledgeable.
The pool has a very unique jungle theme, and is quite large. Benches around the pool are often taken during busy season.
Highly recommend this resort!"
"Modern and clean apartment. Had everything we needed for a family with children including a washing machine. Great location right on the beach. Staff were very helpful and welcoming. "
"The hotel had been abandoned. We managed to check-in but there have been no staff onsite since. A local has told us that the Indian company that owns the hotel has not paid the local staff wages and they have been forced to leave. The hotel is filthy, there is literally no staff anywhere to be seen. "
