Coral Garden Coliving is a guesthouse in Hikkaduwa with 5 bedrooms for up to 9 residents. Boards hang by the gate and most residents are in the water before breakfast. It's one of the easiest ways to stay longer without blowing the budget. Twice a week the house cooks together, and Friday is sunset drinks with the whole crew.
Wi-Fi runs at around 80 Mbps, with a 4G backup router. Every room has a desk, and rent includes utilities, Wi-Fi, weekly cleaning and bed linen & towels.
Hikkaduwa is one of Sri Lanka's original beach towns, with a coral reef, sea turtles in the shallows, consistent surf and a lively strip of restaurants. Colombo is around two hours away by train or expressway.
