Everything was perfect! The location is right on the beach, the host is very friendly and helpful and the food is amaizing. Also, there are a lot of restaurants and bars on the beach nearby. I totally recommend this place.

Nice place very quiet a bit far from the heart of Galle City but you can reach out quickly the city in tuk tuk. Way to go is free of charge you need only to pay the way back around 600 roupies / 2 euros. Nice swimming pool, nice service we spent two good nights there with kids.

My friend and I loved the location at the beachfront! You can relax on the sunbeds that are provided & eat and drink delicious food at the beach cafe that comes with the villa. We were very happy that we didn’t book a room directly in Galle. Would recommend everyone to stay here and take a Tuk Tuk to explore Galle if you want to explore the old town of Galle.

From

If you want an authentic Sri Lankan experience, this is the place for you! Hosts are warm and very attractive, ready to share some stories with you! Tasty and abundant breakfast cooked on the spot, with a possibility to have dinner too, which is also very convenient! Room is basic, but has everything you need, there is a shared terrace where you can relax. I highly recommend this place as an alternative to escape Galle noise and crowds. Easy access to Galle Fort by tuktuk or bus.

Australia

We loved everything. The location was fantastic. The staff were amazing. Breakfast was absolutely beautiful and freshly prepared at a time you chose. They even made us breakfast on the day we left even though we were leaving at 6:30 am. We couldn’t fault it. It’s not very big so you don’t have to fight for space etc. the swimming pool was a great temperature. There is a Chinese restaurant and coffee shop opposite. Everything is flat so it’s great for walking and so close to the ocean.
