Popular points of interest near the accommodation include Mahamodara Beach, Galle International Cricket Stadium and Galle Fort. Koggala Airport is 13 km from the property, and the property offers a paid airport shuttle service. We absolutely loved this hotel, the staff are so welcoming, the hotel itself is impressive, impeccable design and cleanliness, really modern and very clean. The breakfast is really good, filling and a good range of items. The bed is comfortable and the room has all the amenities you would need. Large balcony with drying rack, huge shower which is designed beautifully. We would definitely recommend this hotel, is it just a short walk to the cricket stadium, the fort and the lighthouse is about 2km away but there is plenty to see on your walk down.

Featuring a patio with garden views, a garden and a bar, MAKAI Surf House can be found in Ahangama, close to Ahangama Beach and 21 km from Galle International Cricket Stadium. Private parking is available on site at this recently renovated property. The accommodation offers free WiFi throughout the property, as well as a terrace and a family-friendly restaurant. We had an amazing stay at the Makai surf house! The room was spacious with a private bathroom, felt very clean and was nicely air conditioned. The staff were exceptional, so friendly and helpful. We rented motorbikes and they gave us good guidance on what to do in the area. The location is super peaceful and away from the hustle of Ahangama, so probably best to have a motorbike (although we also walked to the beach & cafes).

With a terrace, the property also has a restaurant, as well as a bar. The accommodation provides a 24-hour front desk, airport transfers, room service and free WiFi throughout the property. A fantastic place right by the ocean. The hotel staff, along with the hotel manager and the hotel's four-paw manager, made us feel right at home from the very moment our car pulled up to the entrance. The attention to detail was unprecedented, and the small touches everywhere continued to surprise us, even after a few days.
