The Blue Gum

4.0(473 reviews)

About

The Blue Gum in Sri Lanka is a hotel on The Blue Wave Hotel Road in Arugam Bay, Pottuvil 05, Arugam Bay 32500. The address places it in Arugam Bay on the island's eastern coast, a settlement known for its shoreline.

As a hotel, it offers accommodation at that Arugam Bay address, with its own website at bluewavearugambay.com. A rating of 4 out of 5, drawn from 473 reviews, reflects a substantial body of guest feedback built up over time.

First-time visitors can expect a stay in Arugam Bay itself, on the eastern side of the island, where the road network and local three-wheelers connect the property to the surrounding area. Buses serve most routes across Sri Lanka, three-wheelers are common for short trips, and traffic drives on the left.

The island has a tropical climate, with two monsoon systems bringing rain to different coasts at different times, so the eastern coast's driest months differ from those of the west. Asian elephants, sloth bears and leopards live in national parks including Yala and Wilpattu. Theravada Buddhism is the main religion, and full-moon Poya days are public holidays, which can affect opening times and travel plans.
