Boasting a garden, Small House Boutique Guest House is a guest house set in a historic building in the centre of Galle, close to Lighthouse Beach. The property has garden and city views, and is 400 metres from Dutch Church Galle. The accommodation offers airport transfers, while a bicycle rental service is also available. Amazing breakfast, different each morning & they took the time & explained the local food to us. Location right in the middle of the old fort, easy access & walking to everything. Room size was large & bathroom very big. Decor lovely, even had our own private breakfast patio amongst the garden. Monkeys in the trees above. Definitely would stay again & not hesitate to recommend. Staff beautiful helpful people.

Villa Amma Erna welcomes its guests with an outdoor pool and free internet access. It features contemporary interiors and stylish fan-cooled guestrooms.

This elegant property is 2.8 km from Galle Light house, 2.9 km from the historical Galle Fort and 3.1 km from Dutch Church Galle. The views from the property were absolutely amazing! We could just hang out by the pool in the morning and watch the peacock and monkeys fool around which was a blast. The room was perfect with high ceilings, an abundance of natural sunlight (can shade if you want), and as clean as can be. The host and staff couldn’t have been more kind! They helped arrange rides, provided local dining options, activities to consider…pretty much you name it! The breakfast spread we had in the morning was, without question, the best we had during our trip! We couldn’t have been happier with the little time we were able to have there & we owe it all to the amazing people running it!!! ☺️

Sri Lankan architectural master piece Dunes Unawatuna hotel is an eco friendly boutique hotel near the beautiful Unawatuna beach(100 meters/ 5min walk away).

Dunes has 10 garden-view ac rooms and a 2 bed room ac cottage in its peaceful and tranquil setting. Comfortable, clean hotel with great location near to the Unawatuna beach. The staff was polite and helpful. I would say it was one of the best hotels we stayed at in Sri Lanka. We had a room with a king-size bed.

Fort Bliss is about 1 km from the Galle town centre and 7 km from Unawatuna Beach. Bandaranaike International Airport is 160 km away. Sunil and Imron made us feel so welcome from the moment we arrived and throughout our stay. The breakfast was a highlight of our day, prepared with care and presented beautifully.

A short 1-minute walk from Bentota Beach, Club Villa provides an outdoor pool and massage treatments. Its air-conditioned rooms are decorated with handwoven batiks and paintings. Free Wi-Fi is available in public areas. It really felt like going back in time; beautifully decorated by Geoffrey Bawa giving the typical tropical movement vibe. Very tranquil place, the garden is stunning, breakfast delicious and you have the luxury of the swimming pool and just a 5 minute walk away also the quiet beach. The train running through the garden only every once in a while makes it extra special. The noise never bothered me while I am a light sleeper (as of midnight until +/- 05:00 the train doesn't pas by anymore anyway). There are many guests who have been coming back for years. That already says enough. The staff is incredibly friendly. Absolutely loved it here, thank you for this special experience and truly hope to come back in the future!
