I had a wonderful stay at Villa Sea View. The host, Darshi, is the kindest woman I have ever met. She made me feel completely at home with her great care and lovely conversations. The room is very beautiful and clean, and the view over the sea is amazing. It’s less than a 10-minute walk to the fort, so very doable. 100% recommended & next time I’ll come back for sure. Also definitely recommended is having dinner at the villa. I went for the fresh local snapper, which was prepared deliciously.

Beautiful hotel interior. All staff are very friendly and always smiling. It was nice that there was beach access. The attentiveness of the staff is what really made it stand out like contacting us before we arrived to ensure we were all set and they helped organise our activities. We really enjoyed our stay and recommend it to others

The best house I've stayed in during my 12-day trip to Sri Lanka! Asintha and his wife made it a home for me and my friends. I wish I could have stayed there for at least a week. Thank you, Asintha! I'll choose to stay in Villa Emma again when I visit Galle next time.

Train Boossa then Tuk Tuk to guest house worked well. Right on the beach with a lovely sea breeze and sunsets from local bar. Lovely family run property. Saman was friendly and extremely helpful and we did a tour with him which we enjoyed a lot.

The first place we stayed during our trip so it was a good place to recover from jet lag as we didn't plan to do much. The accommodation was right on the beach & was lovely to just step right out onto the sand. The south coast has some strong waves so just be careful when going for a dip! Nice backpacker hostel along the beach that served drinks with a sunset view. Had a few places to eat & fairly priced too.

Amazing little homestay located right on the beach.you can access the private beach, but it's not good to swim. The room was air conditioning and clean. The host welcomed and cared for us as their own relatives. The meals were amazing and super delicious. She prepared us crabs and a large fish, which made it fresh. The owner brought us to very nice spots in Galle city area, including a boat safari.. It was wonderful .. Thank-you Darshi for everything.. you made our day with lots of fun.
