A wooden hut right next to the sea, or a "Wooden Beachfront Cabana", as they called it. It wasn't easy to get. After a long and uncomfortable bus ride with many army checkpoints I eventually reached Trincomalee over 6 hours after leaving Batticaloa.
I decided not to deal with the tuk-tuk drivers waiting at the bus station and instead took a walk up to Fort Frederic which seems to be turned into some army base, with wild deer and a Hindu temple.
From there, I bargained hard with the tuk tuk drivers. The only way a tourist can get a fair price from them. Unfortunately it broke down half way there and the driver insisted I wait for his friend to pick me up rather than take another tuk tuk.
Eventually at Al Fresco Hotel, they gave my beach hut to somebody else and I had to stay in a crappy hotel room for the night. It was only the next day that my mission was complete and I finally got my beachfront cabana.
