🌞 Welcome to our little slice of paradise
Best on the scene of Trincomalee’s epic Uppuveli Beach, the Laughing Leopard Hostel is ready to bring you the vibes, the beer, and the best of friends.
Hidden just a two-minute walk from the beach, this is the place to stay for a good time. You’ll become a part of this crazy family and would never want to leave!
Start the day making new pals over a delicious breakfast and coffee at our café before starting your Trinco adventure.
Soak up the sun, explore the colorful ocean reefs, visit the temples, or kick back with the cuddly dogs in the breezy communal area – don’t worry, we’ll tell you exactly where to go!
Come back to a banging free home-cooked dinner and catch up over a drink or two to the ultimate soundtrack. Plus we’ve got the cleanest rooms in town with AC and comfortable beds, you’re guaranteed a good night’s sleep.
The hosts will do anything possible to make sure your stay is everything you imagined, whether that’s an action-packed adventure or laid-back break. Trust us when we say, you won’t want to stay anywhere else in Trinco.
