Al KorGeorgiaPeaceful and comfortable stay just a short walk from Secret Beach.
A very comfortable and peaceful place to stay in Ahangama. The location is great, it is only about a 5-minute walk to Secret Beach, which is a lovely spot for swimming. At the same time the house is far enough from the…
TobiCzech RepublicIt was ok
Majitel byl velmi příjemný a pohotový, Přijmul nás na poslední chvíli. Pokoj měl AC.
Trošku dražší ale dá se to ustát. Bylo malinko dál od centra ale také se to dalo zvládnout.
LaraGermanyVery good
Very nice host, perfect location, because it’s not in the middle of ahangama but close by, and very cute beaches and cafes around. Plus it has a balcony with a beautiful view of the palm trees.
Bathroom wasn’t clean!
AlexUnited StatesGood
Good basic budget room with a nice balcony. Reasonable value for the area.
No wifi, no hot water, no frills at all. Bare concrete floors give it a bit of a prison vibe.
KittyUnited KingdomPleasant
Great location outside of main centre so more quiet. Near secret beach.
The beds weren't very comfortable in our twin room and from memory there is no AC. Room is fine if all you're out at the beach all day.
NoraAustriaAmazing stay

- That the desk is staffed when you land, and that the room is held past cut-off.
- The pet fee and any size limit, which is where these bookings usually come apart.
- Whether there is room for a pickup, a trailer or a van, not just a car.

Questions about Southern Beach Surf Lodge
What time is check-in and check-out at Southern Beach Surf Lodge?
Check-in is from 11:00 AM. Check-out is by 10:30 AM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.
Does Southern Beach Surf Lodge allow pets?
Yes — the property states that pets are allowed. Size, number and fee are set by the property rather than by us, so say you're bringing a pet when you book and we'll confirm the terms before anything is charged.
Is there parking at Southern Beach Surf Lodge?
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.
Does Southern Beach Surf Lodge have Wi-Fi?
Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.
Does Southern Beach Surf Lodge 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.
Can I check in late at Southern Beach Surf Lodge?
The property lists a front desk staffed 24 hours, so a late arrival should be possible. Standard check-in is from 11:00 AM. Rooms are still released after a cut-off at some properties regardless of the desk hours, so tell us your arrival time and we'll have them hold it.
How do I book Southern Beach Surf Lodge?
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.
