Our stay at this hotel was fantastic! The staff were incredibly kind, attentive, and always willing to help. Even after we checked out, they kindly stored our luggage so we could explore Galle without any hassle. Their hospitality truly stood out and made our experience unforgettable. Highly recommended!

The breakfast was absolutely delicious, the best we have had in Sri Lanka. We felt very well looked after and thoroughly enjoyed our experience of staying here. The balcony at the front is a fantastic place to sit and read in the evening.

    I had an excellent stay at this guest house. Its proximity to a major highway interchange made travel easy, yet the surrounding greenery provided a peaceful and quiet atmosphere. The place was impeccably clean, and the breakfast was both delicious and affordable. The hosts were very friendly and helpful. I highly recommend this guest house for its convenience, cleanliness, tasty breakfast, and warm hospitality. I'll definitely return.

    Love this place, relaxed vibe, clean, comfortable rooms, lovely friendly, quietly attentive staff, good food in a fantastic roof terrace restaurant, lovely spaces to hang out. Our host could not have been more accommodating or kind. The location is perfect to catch sunsets and sea breeze and an easy walk to sights, shops & cafes. Monkeys, iguanas, kingfishers and the hilarious crows hanging out too (not in the property!) Everything you'd want of a guesthouse. Highly recommend

    The room was super nice, quiet, and with the air conditioning always comfortably cool. Ravi, the host, takes very good care of his guests and makes you feel very welcome. Breakfast is served on the balcony with a lovely view and includes a wide variety of fresh fruits, tea, toast and so much more. The guest house is perfectly located as it's close to everything you could want and need. All in all we had a wonderful time and can't recommend the guest house enough.
