Sociable but not a party hostel, with air conditioned dorms, a pool table, barbecues and a communal kitchen.

Happy Hammocks (formerly The Lost Hostels) is a laid back, community minded hostel between Hiriketiya and Dickwella.

All dorms are air conditioned, and there is an outdoor common area with a pool table and mini café, board games, a library, a communal kitchen and occasional barbecues and bonfires.
