We really enjoyed our stay at Ceylon Olive. We travelled there with our 1 year old and it was a nice changeup from staying at hotels on the beach. The room is beautifully designed and spacious. The host is personable and went above and beyond to ensure we had a great stay. There's a onsite tuk-tuk, which is convenient for getting to Galle and Unawatuna.

    GALLE FORT is great for a one day visit.

    GALLE FORT is great for a one day visit. The town is small and some shops are repetitive, with the same items for sale, but there are a few unique shops and restaurants which make a visit worthwhile. Sunsets are beautiful; walk along the top of fort walls. Take a tuk tuk to the local fish market just outside of town for vibrant local life and walk back. We stayed overnight which made the visit more relaxing.

    Galle is a city with a combination of a Dutch period fort and beach with all modern facilities. Dutch Fort is a very live well, reserved place with excellent attractions and choices. Walking over the museums and art galleries located in preserved ancient buildings is an excellent experience. fairly good nightlife available with ample choices of fine dining. within Fort, they charge higher prices due to high tourist demand. yet affordable eateries, supermarkets and facilities are available out of Fort within walking distance. Also people in Galle are very friendly, professional and helpful .

    This is a small friendly homestay. The location is perfect for Galle Fort, in the middle of the busiest tourist street with shops and restaurants. It's a 5 minute walk to pretty much anywhere in Galle Fort from the guesthouse but it's not noisy. Breakfast, served on the balcony, is a choice of the usual eggs, fruit and toast, with juice and tea/coffee. Or you can pre-order Sri Lankan breakfast which we did on day 2 and it was great! Hoppers and eggs with daal, sweet and sour fried onion and chilli sambol. Delicious!

    The Prof's Place is a unique and intimate hotel. It has a traditional Sri Lankan architectural feel with all the modern amenities. It's location is brilliant as it is only a few minutes drive from some of the most brilliant beaches and night life on the southern coast. When you get back to the Prof's Place you are in a secluded oasis of tranquillity overlooking the sea and cocooned in a chill vibe. There's a lovely pool as well. The food is exquisite and the service is always with a smile! Thanks for the great stay!

Quiet, great location and only 10mins away from Galle Fort. His staff prepared a delicious meal for us in the evening and it was one of the best ones we’ve had in Sri Lanka. Unfortunately we went during rainy season but I can imagine that in summer it has a super chill vibe 🤙 thanks indika, we really appreciate your help with everything!

    This is by far our best stay in Sri Lanka for this trip. The hotel is brand new and every feature has been carefully selected to give you a sense of luxury. The room we stayed in is secluded and has no road, neighbor's disturbance. The beds are really, really comfy. The shower has good hot water and good pressure too. The cleanliness is exemplary. The location within the rampart means that you can walk everywhere without the crazy traffic. The breakfast was a 5 star level.

    This is a beautiful historic building. The room was excellent, and the lobby and dining areas were very comfortable and tastefully decorated. The quality of the service and the attention to detail from the three men managing this hotel was absolutely perfect. The breakfasts we were served, which were included in the room price, were the best we've ever had. This hotel was perfect in every way, and we will definitely stay there again the next time we are in Galle Fort.

    This was the best value hotel we stayed at in Sri Lanka. For the price, I expected it to be a very basic hotel but it turned out to be one of the nicest hotels we stayed at full stop (at any price). The property is really beautifully designed and the staff were amazing. It's just outside of Galle and a TukTuk into Galle will cost £1 and take only a couple of minutes. It's also right across the road from the beach. Amazing place - would highly recommend!

Breakfast was excellent every morning, both western and Sri Lankan options. Nicolas and his team could not have been any more helpful, 10/10 for the staff. Constantly milling around with a smile on their faces as standard! Would stay here again without any hesitation.

    A really pleasant surprise and a great place for my last night in Sri Lanka. The room is a decent size, clean and comfortable. The hotel is in a really handy location. Perhaps a 20 min walk to the Lighthouse. I was also really impressed with the fact that I had to leave the hotel at 6am in order to get my flight, and the hotel owner got up to make me a brew and small bit of breakfast.
