Ceylon Olive is a colonial-style villa located 1.7 mi from Galle Fort and 2.5 mi from Unawatuna Beach. It offers open air bath, free parking and WiFi.

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 .

    The guest house is owned and run by lovely family. They were very hospitable and ready to help. Location is great: close to railway and bus stations, quiet area, behind the Asiri hospital [convenient for PCR testing], walking distance to Galle Fort, short ride to Unawatuna beach. We had one of the best breakfasts in Sri lanka in this hotel, notably proper Italian coffee. Room was spacious, clean, with all facilities, huge balcony, TV, excellent wifi. We highly recommend this guest house if you would like to have a pleasant stay in Galle

    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!

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.

    Location is good as it’s in the middle of Galle Fort, however the lighthouse street is not the best as everything is under renovation. One of the staff, Suba, really did his best to please us and make our stay enjoyable. He was very helpful. The bathroom is nicely done. There’s lot of potential, it could be a great hotel but a lot of improvements are still needed.
