Private rooms

Community

We’re building a conscious co-living and co-working space where wellness, creativity, and connection come together. It is a home for digital nomads, entrepreneurs, and free spirits who value balance—between work and rest, ambition and peace, individuality and community.

We share ideas over morning coffee, surf at sunset, and reconnect through yoga, sound healing, and simple conversations under the palms. This is a place for people who believe that success doesn’t mean burnout; it means living fully, freely, and meaningfully.

Our mission is simple: to help people live with more awareness, freedom, and connection—wherever they are in the world.

We believe in soft transformations: spaces that heal, communities that inspire, and experiences that remind us of what really matters—presence, purpose, and peace.

The villa has a sports area with a slackline, a chalet with TV for evening …

My booking has been accepted, now what?

Booking

What information do I need to supply for the application?

Just your basic details — name, contact, ID or passport, and your intended dates. We like to know a little about your background and what brings you to Surf & Zen.

What criteria do you use to evaluate potential renters?

We look for positive, respectful people who value community, balance, and mindful living. We’re not just a place to sleep — we’re a shared experience.

Is it possible to arrive before the designated move-in time or stay past the move-out time?

We’ll do our best to accommodate early check-ins or late check-outs depending on availability.

Can I extend or shorten my stay?

Policies

Is it permissible to have visitors during the day/night?

Yes, you’re welcome to invite friends over during the day to share a coffee, a coworking session, or a sunset chat by the garden. We simply ask that you keep the atmosphere peaceful and respect the comfort of others staying here.
Overnight visitors are generally not allowed unless previously discussed with the management. Our goal is to maintain a calm, safe environment for everyone — one where connection thrives but privacy is protected.

What is the policy on alcohol?

Surf & Zen is all about balance — enjoy life, but stay mindful. Moderate alcohol consumption is allowed in common areas, as long as it’s done respectfully and doesn’t disturb others.
We love spontaneous gatherings and sunset drinks, but we’re not a party hostel. Think of it as a place where good wine, great conversation, and ocean breezes come together in harmony. 🍷🌴

Amenities

What potential costs are there besides the rent?

Your rent covers all essentials — utilities, Wi-Fi, coworking access, and shared space maintenance.
The only extras depend on your lifestyle: airport transfers, scooter rentals, optional yoga or surf classes, and additional housekeeping if you’d like.
We’re upfront about everything — no hidden costs, no surprise fees. You’ll always know exactly what you’re paying for. Transparency is part of our zen.

Are all rooms furnished?

Yes. Each private room at Surf & Zen is fully furnished with everything you need to feel comfortable and focused — a cozy bed, wardrobe or storage, desk, and fan or air conditioning. The design blends modern minimalism with tropical charm, using natural textures and calming tones. We want you to have a space that feels both inspiring and restful — ideal for work, reflection, or a lazy afternoon nap after surfing.

Any meals/snacks included?

Depending on your booking type, a light breakfast may be included — think tropical fruits, local tea, and a taste of Sri Lankan hospitality. There’s also a communal kitchen where you can cook your own meals, share recipes with other residents, or organize group dinners. Within walking distance, you’ll find cozy cafes, local restaurants, and beachfront bars that cater to every taste, from healthy smoothie bowls to authentic rice and curry.

Community

Do you host groups/retreats?

Yes, we do! Surf & Zen is the perfect home base for yoga, surf, wellness, and creative retreats. Whether you’re organizing a group stay or a small mastermind, we’re happy to help you plan and host.

How many people will be living here during my stay?

The number of residents varies depending on the season — typically between 8 and 12 like-minded nomads, remote workers, and creatives.

Is there a house/community manager?

Yes. Our community manager is here to make your stay smooth — from check-in to local tips and organizing weekly events.

What are the nationalities of the other residents?

Safety

Are my belongings safe?

Yes. We take safety seriously — both physical and emotional. Surf & Zen has secure rooms, trusted staff on-site, and a community based on respect and openness.
We encourage guests to store valuables safely, but you can rest easy knowing this is a calm, respectful environment where people look out for each other.

Can I lock my bedroom door?

Absolutely. Every private room is equipped with a solid lock so you can feel secure whether you’re working outside, surfing, or just exploring town.
It’s your personal space — and we treat it that way.

Does the building have security? What is done to make me feel safe?

Yes — we have on-site staff and reliable locks on all rooms and entrances. The property is well-lit, and our community manager is always nearby if you ever need help or have concerns.
But more than that, Surf & Zen cultivates an atmosphere of mutual trust. You’ll quickly find that people here are kind, respectful, and always ready to help. Safety isn’t just about gates — it’s about good people.

Nearby

Are there any good restaurants nearby?

Absolutely. Within walking distance, you’ll find beachfront cafes, seafood grills, vegan restaurants, and cozy spots serving traditional Sri Lankan food. Whether you’re craving something healthy, spicy, or sweet — there’s always a place to enjoy it.

What public transportation is available?

Habaraduwa is well-connected. You can hop on a local bus, grab a tuk-tuk, or rent a scooter to explore nearby towns like Unawatuna or Mirissa. The area’s calm but accessible — you get the best of both worlds: serenity and adventure.

How far is it to the nearest airport?

Koggala Airport is just a short 10-minute drive away — perfect if you’re arriving from within Sri Lanka.
For international flights, Colombo International Airport is about 2 to 2.5 hours away by car. The drive is beautiful, winding along the coast — and if you prefer not to deal with logistics, we can organize a comfortable transfer straight to Surf & Zen’s doorstep.
