Its so Beautiful place. We enjoyed the beutiful pool, Beautiful restaurant for couple of days. We ate lunch and dinner there and there is enough variation for these days. This will be a place we always come back to. We loved the look at the monkeys climb in the trees and all birds singing early morning. Fantastic friendly and service minded staff. You can do yoga early morning by the pool or on your own balcony.

A small and chic boutique hotel inside Galle fort. Smart solution to be able to fit entire family in one room. A real experience with nice decorations and design. Note that our room had no windows towards the outside, but that was no problem. Breakfast was really nice.

Our stay at this property was nothing short of spectacular! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the serene beauty surrounding the house. The location is absolutely stunning, nestled in nature with breathtaking views and a peaceful atmosphere that makes you feel instantly relaxed. The house itself is immaculate – spacious, beautifully designed, and filled with everything you could possibly need for a comfortable stay. Every detail has been thought of, creating an atmosphere of warmth and elegance that made us feel right at home. But the real highlight of our experience was the host, Priyankara. He is truly exceptional – kind, attentive, and genuinely committed to ensuring his guests have an unforgettable experience. From organizing a soothing massage to serving us a delicious breakfast, every gesture was thoughtful and heartfelt. He made our entire stay incredibly easy and enjoyable. If you are looking for a place that combines natural beauty, comfort, and world-class hospitality, this is the one. We can’t recommend it highly enough and would love to return in the future. Thank you, Priyankara, for making our trip so special!

What should I start with. When we entered the villa we were so amazed at the quality of the place. Every little detail is thought of, the room was big and the cleanest we saw on the island. We truly felt we can relax our bodies and minds (highly recommend booking a massage in the garden, truly a zen experience). The owners really care for the villa and the garden, making sure everything works like a charm. I can’t not mention hotel manager Duminda’s professionalism. He took care of every little ask we had. He even helped organise our airport transfer after our check out date. The rest of the staff was also amazing at their jobs. Hoping to come back!

Seven Pillars is a wonderfully proportioned villa with high ceilings, tasteful furnishings & a serene atmosphere. The inner courtyard is lush & restful, & the bedrooms & bathrooms spacious & comfortable. Imalka the butler & the other staff were highly professional & cooked absolutely delicious meals for us, served at the expansive dining table with ‘all the trimmings’. We truly felt like royalty. For a relaxing escape from the heat & bustle I can’t think of a better place.

The location was superb, we could walk across to the Neptune Bastion, and also to the streets filled with cafe's restaurants, and small boutiques. The staff and the chef were superb and quick to respond to our expectations. Both dinner and breakfast were delightful especially the Sri Lankan cuisine, which the chef explained in great detail. It was like staying in our own home, and a luxury to come home to, after a hot day out in the sun.

Everything about our four nights at Ginganga Lodge was exceptional and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it. The setting is beautiful and the attention to detail impressive. The staff are attentive without being in any way intrusive and the food, and the cocktails, were all delicious. We stayed in the Deluxe Suite which was just amazing. We took advantage of the tuktuk service into Galle and were always picked up promptly when we requested a return. We stayed in some superb places on our three week trip but this was the best.
