$200 Luxury Beachfront Hotel in Sri Lanka Village 🇱🇰
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 18 мар 2023
- ■ HIKKADUWA, SRI LANKA: Some hotels deliver beyond expectations. This luxury 3 bedroom hotel room with a private pool on your balcony overlooking Sri Lanka's Hikkaduwa beach certainly falls into that category. At $200 a night, seeing as you could technically have 4 people sleep here, each even in their own room (even 5 if someone's willing to sleep on the balcony), I'd even classify it as a bargain given how spacious and well equipped it is.
After a tour of this amazing luxury beachfront hotel, I set out for Hikkaduwa's fish market to buy fresh tuna and chase down Freeman, the owner of the Airbnb I stayed at exactly 3 years ago this week.
Business for Airbnb owners and people employed in Sri Lanka's tourism industry have been incredibly rough ever since I last visited. So how is Freeman and his family doing?
That and more in this little tour of the Hikkaduwa most tourists would find hard to get to experience.

The people of Sri Lanka are wonderful

I was so touched when the lady from the Airbnb remembered Harold’s name. She was lovely 🥰 and you Harold, are a real hero. Thanks for showing what’s Srilanka is all about!!
Love from 🇬🇧
Makes me so happy to see Freeman again -- even during a rough stretch for the world, I always looked forward to these episodes in Sri Lanka!
Freeman and his wife are such kind people. Loving the Sri Lankan series, Norseman! Hopefully your videos will also help bring them some business.
Welcome to Sri Lanka again. You are a real my brother. Truly Sri Lankan tourists industry must give you a award. Because this gentleman been supporting & representing Sri Lanka making very good videos & vlogs during the pandemic time.
Sri Lankan holiday industry must care you & few other bloggers who were promoted Sri Lanka during the pandemic time. Enjoy your holiday ❤️👍🍻
Keep fighting the good fight, and rebuild those businesses - we can’t let these government criminals win.
It is admirable how calm and pleasant the people from Sri Lanka are. The people in India and Pakistan, on the other hand, are a bit more pushy in my opinion. I hope that in time people will visit Sri Lanka more to get to know this wonderful country 🇱🇰
❤
thanz ❤ plz visit sri lanka
Thank you for Your kind words. Well come to Sri Lanka & enjoy your holiday one day. God bless you 🙏♥️
❤❤
Thank you for your kind words ❤❤ visit sri lanka l❤️
Hi I'm a Srilankan. The way you react and move with the locals are so admirable ❤❤
Heart warming to see Harald revisit the wonderful Freeman and his wife. Such kind and gentle people. I hope to one day visit their place and stay a few nights and taste her cooking! Love the kind and warm smiles of the Sri Lankan people! 💕
You are warmly welcome
The Sri Lankan people are beautiful people man, so sweet and welcoming.
The feeling when a new video from the mighty Heraldo Baldieri is live 🎉🎉
It made me shed tears of joy when you met freeman and his wife. Cheers Viking man.
What a reunion ..even the big iguana came to see you ..💘
The Sri Lankan people seem unbelievably nice, I would love to go there some day!
Oh they were the kindest people! So glad they are doing well!
Visit sri lanka 🇱🇰🇱🇰
I'm an Indian n love the way you help and meet and greet people whom you met in the past
Doing so much for SL people.
The lady is so simple n Graceful.
Wow, that hotel room was a hell of a lot nicer than the Vegas one! Those people are so nice, very cool video, brother!
Srilankans are grateful to this man for his support to srilankan tourism
Last time I watched this lovely people my mom seemed okay. Since... my mom also passed. I feel like I’m traveling back in time. The coconut man! Wow! Beautiful memories. Thank you for bringing us back to memory lane! ❤
My mom also passed during the same time period. So much has changed in three short years.
@@AmericanEnglishBrent sorry to hear that. Yes for me it’s been a crazy ride.
Sorry to read of your loss.

My laughing and funny part was when you at the tuna stall and asked do i look Chinese. And the expression on the man's face, boy oh boy 😂😂😂
The most realistic traveller on the earth. He can adapt to any culture and society. I love the way he started the motorbike, just as a Sri Lankan do ❤
100% No propaganda, no agendas, no promotions, no script. This is the best you can get. ❤
What a beautiful place and people. Makes you appreciate the fish more when you see the dedication and sacrifice made by those fishermen.
I almost cried when Freeman gave you the empty Kasippu bottle, so much nostalgia, Love it.. Haraldo is the besto....
Friends like this last a life time with memories
So sorry to hear about Indrani's sister . All the best to her family.
I know for a fact you did helped the coconut climbing man even tho you didn't show on the video. Good job man! you're a great person 😀❤💯
You are doing more for SL tourism industry than the country’s tourism department.
You should be given as an award for that Mr Harald 👏🙏❤️🏆
The funniest conversation:
Harald: "I'm gay how are you? Are you a fisherman?"
Happy motorcyclist: "No, I'm a swimming coach"🤣😂😂😂
Yep 😂
😅😅😅
😂😂
I just cant stop viewing these raw, unedited and honest videos.
My son Antonio has just introduced me to your videos, I absolutely love them , my daughter and husband watch your videos every night and love them, keep up the fantastic work…
So glad you visited Freeman again. He and his wife are great people.
What an awesome video, revisiting the legend that is Freeman and his lovely wife was an absolute pleasure to watch. Even the coconut man made an appearance! So nice to see their home again and its got to be said, they are the kindest couple in Sri Lanka! That giant lizard running in the house and hearing it crash around the place - chaos! Just brilliant Harald, very enjoyable to watch, cheers dude 👍🏻
Harald seems to like being srilanka more than other countrys❤❤❤ he looks really happy every moment ❤
Welcome back to Sri Lanka! Somehow feels weirdly nostalgic watching you revisit these locales yet it's only been a few years lol
I am dying to visit. I’m really dying to visit your country…it looks so, incredible. The Komodo dragon scene, was so hilarious. Harald comes to town, and all hell breaks loose. I bet they loved seeing him again.
@@fowchiiiliedpuppiesdied For sure! I haven't been in Sri Lanka since the 2019 Easter incidents, so I often watch vlogs like these to see what it's like to travel again. So far, it looks as nice as I remember !
By the way, those aren't Komodo dragons per se (those live in Indonesia), but they're some other ol' monitor lizard. Not sure if it's a kabaragoya or a thalagoya though (might be the latter?)
@@Syiepherze right! I didn't realize how long I've been watching harlds videos.
Definitely It seems same for me to you can see Father Time taking its toll on them but it was very nice to see the smiles
Some of my favourite videos are when you stayed with Freeman and his lovely wife. It’s so nice to see them again! ❤
I’m so happy that you’re back uploading videos for our entertainment. My wife and I enjoy these and watch them together. Safe travels traveler!
I absolutely loved how authentic this vlog was, especially how you were trying to get rid of the iguana. I really hope I get to bump into you at some point in time.
Sri Lanka beach Hotel vlogs are amazing.. Loves it
Jacuzzi, Carlsberg, Indian ocean and Lightning at the same time! What can be better than this? Harald is living the dream! 👏👍
Harold, good to see you are "On The Road Again."🎸
While in Sri Lanka, I wish you could check on our friend Wonderboy Jeremy. He seems to have dropped off the map. His mom has/had a Hotel there. He was going to school in Canada. I know/suspect you were a very important mentor of Jeremy.
Friends are forever, Curtis.
The Sri Lanka videos from 3 years ago are some of my absolute favorites from you Harald. Seeing this video and the hunt for the Fine White Wine Man is just fantastic! Keep the great work up!👍🏼👍🏼
Times flying so as memories. Only few Top legends like Harald hunt back those😎. Rare personality.❤
I like your way to show how people live.. no pathos, no arrogance, simplicity.. it's landing a lot
Hi Harald,
Welcome back. 😊
Did you notice that people are quite confused when you say "Namaste"? That's because in SriLanka, we use "Ayubowan"
Hope this helps for your next random communication adventure 😅
Harald, you're a true modern day viking! I appreciate your energy! May God keep his angles watching over you as you travel through the journeys
Harold !! Hello from JACKSONVILLE 😎 Florida USA. Makes me so happy to see you back making videos !!!
Its good to see Freeman & wife. Sorry to hear about her sister & brother.
Sri Lanka seems to be a wonderful place full of wonderful people.
Looking forward to many more videos with you.
Harold you are my favorite ❤
Its really wholesome to see you visiting Freeman and his wife again, i remember your fist visit there and how you showed how great the people of Sri Lanka are. its so cool to see how you dont forget these bonds that you make on your travels, as always great work Harald.
The smiles of the Sri Lankan people are truly beautiful
❤️❤️❤️
The vibes along with the sights and sounds of Sri Lanka are simply amazing 💚
That view of the storm from the jacuzzi was amazing.
Wow that view looked phenomenal right before the storm. I like that hotel a lot.
Awesome episode Harald.
So glad to see you back herald your a very humble person to go back and visit lovely country with friendly people your a very funny person and best You-Tuber 👌 thanks for sharing 👍
The King 👑 of RUclips is back, best RUclips travel channel👍. Keep up the good work bro 🍺, greetings from the great state of Wisconsin 🇺🇸
I was hoping for Harald to help the coconut man financially and it looked like he did (even though he did not film it). I saw something that looked like a bunch of cash in the wife's left hand. Great job Harald!
Yes, that was a class act, he did it in a dignified way for the spider/coconut man.
I hope he did .. was a bit disappointed when he walked off and gave them nothing
It's a good observation indeed!!! I felt so bad for them!! I just came back to read the comments find out this only!!
That's wonderful to see the family again. I enjoyed so much the time you spent with them during the awful lockdoms
Sri Lanka is unique in every sense of the word. The Sri Lankan people are truly warm hearted and wonderful hosts. Thanks to your fantastic adventures, the world gets to see many aspects of Sri Lanka. The kindness and warmth you carry with you is really refreshing Harald!
Your observations are on point and Sri Lanka truly will benefit by your visits.
Well compiled lovely video presented by your inimitable style. Wishing you safe travels and tranquility and waiting for more fun filled adventures with great laughter!
Ayubowan to you and all Sri Lankans!
Sending you greetings from Toronto! Stay Blessed Harald! Looking forward to more videos from Sri Lanka!
🇨🇦❤️🇱🇰
P.S
"And Then And Then" that movie was a classic!
We got the same taste in humour 😍
Mr and Mrs Freeman finally was visited by their lost son❤😊….love how you always revisit those cool people👍
It feels like one of our closest neighbors visited our home after a long time🥰 Keep it up nothern man
(northern man is looking for you) 😂 Harald is the legend 😊❤😊
Haha😂
You are so good with people on your travels. This sets you apart from other vloggers.
Really enjoyable watch 🎉
I didn't realize how much I enjoy your content. Until u stopped uploading. Glad to see you back and sharing your adventures!
So great to see Freeman, his wife and the huge iguana! I recall your time there making food, laughing with Freeman and getting drunk. Keep the vlogs coming! Sri Lanka is amazing.
@@mahesh2siebel it's harmless
@Mahesh K thats Srilankan iguana. Monitor lizard is the black one
11:26 Bro was absolutely flabbergasted when u said u were from China, lol
This was awesome!!!! They were so happy to see you!
the added translation commentary is epic!!!!! love it
Hahaha the fishermen's conversation in the boat, epic😁😁😁 hiding their kassipu😅😅😅
I love Sri Lanka so much! This year I will come back.
You are most welcome. Love from Sri Lanka
Very beautiful countryside. Looks so calm and peaceful
Sri Lankans are awesome kind people!
I want to visit Sri Lanka now
come to 🇱🇰💐
please visit.we are waiting for you ❤
welcome To 🇱🇰 🙏
You are mostly welcome to my country ❤
Don’t bother I’ve heard it stinks
I became friends with Jeremy and he’s in Canada 🍁 attending school. Trying to get him into USA with sponsorship from NYU. He is nervous about it. I’m sure he would do very well as a student and with a great chance to learn from internship experts in whatever field he is interested in. Smart kiddo! He deserves a chance to have freedom and educational opportunity. Talk to him…he needs good advice from an intelligent man like you. 😊
Great vid, I'm happy to see good people enjoying life together
Looks beautiful there !! Thanks Harold great watch ! That hotel looks like a must visit with that pool and view ! If Carlsberg do hotels 😂 that’s for sure it
Harold the unofficial brand ambassador of Sri Lankan tourism.Thank you 🎉
Kasippu is however not only illegal but unhealthy as well 😂.
Can you send me some Kasippu to England??
It is healthy if you can make at home with fine fruits
Bro..when you make it best quality to perfection.. Vodka defeated...😆😅
Wow beautiful place with beautiful people ❤❤❤😍
Amazing ep thx. The dragon fight was epic 😂😂😂
So awesome 😎 that you visited with them again. Wonderful people and great video.
I want to come to SRI Lanka, and live fish and eat... with the wonderful people who Harald always seems to find, cause he is the Great Viking communicator.
come to 🇱🇰 💐
You are mostly welcome to my country❤
Underbart du är tillbaka!!!! gillar dina videos riktigt mycket!!!! Hälsningar från Sverige..
Another great video, thanks!!!! People in remote places seems to live in a calm mood all the time
Sri Lanka is a country that was never really on my radar to be honest. Now it surely is! Beautiful country with amszing people!
Looks like a beautiful place with a great view. I'd love to stay here!
I am so happy you went back and visited Freeman and family. They seemed so happy to see you again, it's as if you never left. They will never forget the Northman such a lovely family that looked after you when the Rona hit ❤
Hei Harald, takk for denne fantastiske vloggen. Jeg elsker å se vloggene dine. Vloggene dine er veldig unike! Forventer flere videoer.👍👍👍
So great to see the Nordman is back in Sri Lanka! Harald, your previous series of Sri Lanka was absolutely one of my favorite series. This time you went to meet Freeman which was just wonderful, how about to go to see the turtle man?? 🐢 I actually thought you were retired from YT but luckily I was wrong. Thanks for 2 more than an hour length videos! I rather watch long videos than short. Hope you managed to shoot enough videos before you left the country (If you've left yet??).
Alt det beste for deg! Hilsen fra Las Palmas, Gran Canaria. Te mando un fuerte abrazo! 💜💕💜 Ciao!
🇱🇰🇱🇰🇱🇰🇱🇰
Você fugindo daquele largado foi muito engraçado, Heraldo.😱😁😁😁que bom que no final tudo terminou bem🙏que família simpática e hospitaleira. Tudo de bom pra você amigo. Abraços aqui do Brasil.🙏🤩🌻🥀🌿
“I personally don’t cook. I just drink Carlsberg.” Hahaha had me dying 😂
Such a great video this is what I love to see you do, brilliant
Harold, you are a great hero! You decided to come to Sri Lanka and help economy, tourism and lively hood of thousands of people, at the time we need it most. Thank you for your hard work for coming back to SrI Lanka. You are a great utuber, your videos are clear, specific and emotional, Great job! Waiting for more videos from Sri Lanka please.
Lizard scene was too funny I wasn't expecting a monster roaming freely 😂
It's harmless innocent one
The coconut man may not have much, but he and his family look happy with their lot - can't say that about people who have much more. Thanks as always for exploring and sharing your adventures. I hope to get to Sri Lanka soon as well...
When the lizard ran into the house I just cracked up laughing 🤣😂
Thank you Harald, love the thunderstorm beginning! 🏆🍀🫵
Fantastic vlog Harald would be great to see the Freeman family again brings back memories of the lockdown and curfew 😊thanks
Who is freeman?
Great video Harald! I enjoyed watching my freind.
Keep ‘em coming Harold!
Yes! I was hoping you would go visit Freeman again! Him and his family are so nice, when you visited them last time it was some of the best and most entertaining videos you have ever made 👍🏻
I am always excited to see a new upload by Harald. Thanks for the content 🙂
