Questions about Rise & Set Arugam bay

What time is check-in and check-out at Rise & Set Arugam bay?

Check-in is from 2:00 PM. Check-out is by 11:30 AM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.

Does Rise & Set Arugam bay allow pets?

No — the property states that pets are not allowed.

Is there parking at Rise & Set Arugam bay?

Yes — the property states that parking on site is free. Whether a space can be reserved in advance varies, so we check it against your dates.

Is breakfast included at Rise & Set Arugam bay?

Breakfast is offered at the property. Whether it's included depends on the rate — the board type is shown on each room once you put your dates in.

Does Rise & Set Arugam bay have Wi-Fi?

Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.

Does Rise & Set Arugam bay have wheelchair accessible rooms?

The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.

How do I book Rise & Set Arugam bay?

Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
