About this coliving

Kabalana Commons is a villa in Ahangama with 8 bedrooms for up to 8 residents. The house runs surf guiding three mornings a week and knows which break works on which tide. The work room has proper desks, monitors on request and a phone booth, so nobody takes calls in the kitchen. Twice a week the house cooks together, and Friday is sunset drinks with the whole crew.

Wi-Fi runs at around 260 Mbps on fibre, with a 4G backup router and backup power for outages. Every room has a desk, and rent includes utilities, Wi-Fi, weekly cleaning and bed linen & towels.

Ahangama is the stretch of coast between Galle and Weligama where many remote workers end up staying for months. It has reef and point breaks, good cafés and coworking spaces, and stilt fishermen still work the shallows nearby. The surf season runs from about November to April.

I arrived knowing nobody and left with a group of friends. I had calls with Europe every evening and the Wi-Fi never dropped once. Nadeesha sorted out an airport pickup and a local SIM before I even landed. The walls are thin, so earplugs help. Already planning my next stay.

One of the best months I've had on the road. Desks by the window and a backup router meant zero downtime. Laundry was easy to sort out and the house is kept very tidy.

Exactly what I was hoping for. The coworking room is properly set up: good chairs, monitors and a quiet booth for calls. Communication with Nadeesha was quick and easy before I arrived. Would definitely come back.

Felt at home from the first evening. The surf guiding was a highlight: Nadeesha knows which break works on which tide. Lots of spontaneous weekend trips with housemates. The kitchen is well stocked and there is plenty of fridge space. Getting there from the airport takes a while, so plan the trip.

Second stay here and it was just as good. Family dinners twice a week made it easy to get to know everyone. My room was clean, bright and quiet.

Lovely place with a really good crowd. Perfect for intermediate surfers, and beginners get lessons right out front. Boards on site and a break five minutes away, so I surfed almost every morning. Rooms are simple but comfortable, with good mattresses. I'd stay here again in a heartbeat.
