Located just 7 km from Galle International Cricket Stadium, Happy Valley Residence Unawatuna offers accommodation in Galle with access to a garden, a terrace, as well as a shared kitchen. Private parking is available on site at this recently renovated property. The guest house features family rooms as well as facilities for disabled guests. The stay was amazing! The rooms were spotless, and the washroom was just like in the photos – clean and exactly what we expected. The host was super friendly and went out of their way to help us with everything. The kitchen was fully functional, so we could cook if we wanted, and they were kind enough to prepare a delicious pure veg breakfast on our request. The location was perfect, too – close to everything we wanted to explore. All in all, it was a fantastic experience, and we’d definitely recommend it for anyone looking for a cozy, convenient place to stay!

Galle Fort is 3 km from the guest house, while Galle Light house is 3.4 km away. Koggala Airport is 16 km from the property. My friend and I stayed here for one night and we couldn’t have picked a better place. Ajith, our host, was unbelievably helpful and kind. We had just made a shady experience with a tuk tuk driver and Ajith helped us get out of the situation and organised a new transport for us. He made us feel so safe and his breakfasts are phenomenal. The bedroom is clean, has AC, hot water - literally anything you need.

Bentota Lake is 3.7 km from the guest house, while Bentota Railway Station is 4.2 km from the property. Located just right on the beach, you can see the ocean from the room. The room was clean, hot water, A/C was working. The breakfast was very good. If you have any preferences in the way of cooking, you can ask the guys and they will try to do all the best for you. The beach is very nice and empty. Nothing to do around, but if you are exhausted and want just to have a rest in peace and quiet-this is the perfect place for you.

Set in Hikkaduwa, 100 metres from Narigama beach and 17 km from Galle International Cricket Stadium, Alvas house offers air-conditioned accommodation with a terrace and free WiFi. With garden views, this accommodation provides a balcony. Outdoor seating is also available at the guest house. Susanna and Tusharo (please excuse me if I’m misspelling the names :) were wonderful hosts. Welcoming and informative. It really felt like our own house. Spotless clean, equipped with everything a traveler needs, beautiful nature around, a garden well kept. Another great thing is the hosts really care about animals and Tusharo shared fascinating information about the connection local people share with the sea turtles (we got lucky and swam with them). The beach has some great surf. Would love to come back and stay more.
