Our experience at this property was nothing short of incredible. From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed and cared for, as though we were guests in a home filled with warmth and charm. This place is unlike any other—a true oasis where you can completely immerse yourself in the vacation spirit. Every detail has been so thoughtfully designed and curated, creating an environment that is both stylish and comfortable. The house has a distinct and beautiful design that blends effortlessly with the natural surroundings, giving it a unique character that made our stay unforgettable. The pool is undoubtedly the cherry on top. After a day exploring the area or even just lounging around, it was the perfect place to unwind, cool off, and enjoy some quiet moments. You could easily spend the entire day here, relaxing and taking in the serene atmosphere. The location is also excellent—just a stone's throw away from Galle Fort and within a very short distance of the beach, offering the best of both worlds. Whether you’re looking to explore the historic sights, soak in the vibrant local culture, or simply relax by the sea, everything is conveniently close. Our stay exceeded all expectations. The level of care and attention from the staff was impeccable—they were well-trained, friendly, and attentive to our every need. It’s evident that they take pride in making every guest feel at home, and it truly elevated our experience. On top of all this, the accommodations themselves were outstanding. The rooms were spotless and beautifully furnished, creating a space that was both elegant and inviting. This wasn’t just a stay; it was an experience that made us feel completely rejuvenated. This is by far the best accommodation we’ve had in all our travels across Asia. I recommend this property to anyone planning a visit to Galle, you won’t regret it. And as for us, this has become a must-visit destination, and we’ll definitely be returning whenever we’re back in Galle.

We really like the beautiful and super-spacious room. Stuff in the rooftop restaurant was super friendly and professional. Cocktails are tasty. Want to mention Dilki from the restaurant as she was beautifully helpful and friendly. And a restaurant manager Raveen. Who is doing his job professionally!

Kumudu, the owner, was very welcoming and helpful throughout our stay. The room was really big, nicely decorated and the open bathroom was an absolute highlight on our Sri Lanka journey. Also the garden with the nice pool was so beautiful and perfect to relax, being completely surrounded by nature. Would definitely come back!

The staff goes above and beyond: I had a family emergency and they helped me a lot, also outside of their working hours. They truly go the extra mile to make you feel at home and that I didn’t feel like I’m alone in this difficult situation. Sidesh is a great manager with a generous heart! The interior is beautiful and the breakfast is delicious! I highly recommend this accomodation!

Excellent facilities, lovely small pool with only two poolside rooms. If you are lucky enough to be able to book them, do. A few other cheaper room options available if not. Food was delicious and more than plentiful, really good and only slightly more expensive than some in town but far better value.
