Homebase Coliving is founded by Lisi and Lucky. Lucky is a local ISA certified surf instructor. He knows Hiriketiya Beach in and out and is the best surf instructor in Hiri (if you don't believe us, check out his google reviews!)
Lisi is a freelance UX Designer who has been a full time nomad for 3+ years. She's been yearning for a home base recently and when she met Lucky, they decided to build that homebase in Hiriketiya.

Coliving with us in Hiriketiya
After traveling for 3+ years, I really wanted to find a home base. And then I met Lucky, a local surf instructor in Hiriketiya.
Together, we founded Homebase Hiriketiya. The building is a 2-storey Sri Lankan-style house with 3 shared kitchens, a coworking space, and 7 bedrooms - only a 7-minute walk away from the surf beach 🏄🏻♀️
We have many bars and restaurants within walking distance, but if you want to explore more of Hiriketiya and its surroundings, just contact us for a motorbike rental. Book today to wake up to a wonderful surf, enjoy colorful smoothie bowls before starting your work day with high-speed wifi, and relax with a coconut for sunset in the Homebase Hiriketiya.

Our Coworking Space
Yes, we have fiber internet 🏃🏻♀️💨
Join our fellow colivers at the coworking upstairs. We have 6 desk spaces and movable foldable desks that can be placed in your room if you need to (some of our rooms have a desk already).
If you're someone who enjoys working while lounging, you can chill at our sofa or in the bean bags on the pateo upstairs.
Please note: This is a coliving in Sri Lanka. There are things we cannot control, like unplanned power cuts or monkeys biting through the wifi cable. But don't sweat, we will do what we can to get you back online! There are coffeeshops with generators in walking distance. You can work efficiently upstairs at the coworking, where our Router is. If you need more focus time on your own, feel free to work from the garden or your room.
We have batteries that power the router for 4 hours once a power cut has started. When there is an announced power cut, we will let you know so you can make sure your devices are charged.
