There is too much traffic, non safe driving, but very nice nature and suitable for adventurer.
I recommending families whom are traveling by self planing and managing and they like visit some different location in Sri Lanka, booking whole of their land transportation at arriving time. because there is no easy to book comfortable, safe and new models car in Kandi and other cities.

Galle Fort is an interesting departure from the ethnic, cultural, and rural experiences one thinks about when visiting Sri Lanka. Upscale restaurants and shopping, and many many tourists, it is a scene. But beneath the modern facade is a truly interesting history. Also it is located such that forays into the nearby sights and gorgeous beaches are easy and fun. I highly recommend.
Calorie, a delightful restaurant was wonderful. I had the fresh tuna salad, and it was perfect.

Cute.
Cute. Worth a night or two or equally a visit from Mirissa in the day. The surrounding area outside the fort is not as nice as other places further South along the coast therefore a few days only required. Top quality food overall!

The Galle Fort is a well preserved Dutch Fort.
The Galle Fort is a well preserved Dutch Fort. One can see the Dutch influence in its buildings and houses. A place for both the history buff and those who like to have a different experience. The roads are paved and there are many places to eat with different types of cuisine from traditional Sri Lankan food to Italian, burgers, crepes and other types of western food. Sea food and vegetarian food available. Il gelato ice cream to top it off. Lovely little coffee shops all over and a stunning sunset. Many pubs and cool breeze. Outside the Fort you can watch fisherman bring in their nets, swim in the sea or sunbath on the beach or enjoy the city. Hire a bicycle or motorbike and see Galle and it’s surrounding areas. Many hotels both big and small is available. The hotels in the Fort are small but lovely. Galle is a definete place to visit in SrI Lanka.

Good place with olde-world charm.
Good place with olde-world charm. Nice to walk around and go sightseeing. Helpful and welcoming people. Our favourite spot was the Sea Breeze Cafe - good food and drinks with great service. The Internet service is excellent. It is easy to get around in a tuk-tuk - the rates are very reasonable.

Beautiful old town.
Beautiful old town. You can spend days wandering the streets and admiring the architecture.
Its a nice walk along the old boundaries and there area few little beaches where you can cool off with a quick swim. The sea is so clear and natural bays make it safe to swim.
There are lots of fabulous eateries and boutiques. Everything you could want it catered for. It can start to get a little expensive!
“Great location. Recently opened hotel so everything was in great shape. Best water pressure I’ve experienced in Sri Lanka! TV, AC, and fan were included in the room and wonderful high ceiling. The staff was amazing! The boy who works there, Hasanga did an amazing job from checking in to breakfast. He even fetched me a water at night when I forgot to grab one and the stores near the hotel was closed. I believe the hotel only has 3 rooms so it’s very small and few guests.”
“The rooms - were very clean and comfortable;
The staff - they were so cheerful and friendly and they made our stay even better. This kind of customer service you cannot find anywhere in Europe. Keep rocking, guys!
Everything in the villa exceeded our expectations;
And the food - OMG! The food is the best food that we’ve tasted in Sri Lanka so far. The chef of Sisikirana villa cooks with magic!
We were a group of 7 friends and all of us can say: this villa is a MUST if you are looking for the perfect vacation!

“The welcome juice was refreshing. The rooms are comfortable and clean, the A/C is a must :) we had two options for breakfast, either Sri Lankan or Western, we’ve tried each and were happy with both. The staff is friendly and welcoming. The hotel is located within the fort and easy to navigate around. Coffee is good and the internet works in the rooms which is kind of rare.”
“Would rate 10/10 for the hospitality, location and ambience.
The hotel is located right in the fort area with a view of the sea and is walking distance from all the major attractions in Galle. The rooms are extremely well maintained and beautifully done up to give the vibes of old dutch era. The lady who runs the place was extremely helpful to us and helped us get very good deal of taxi to get back to Colombo even on a late notice. We only had one meal of breakfast at the hotel and was very good. ”
“Very comfortable room with the best mattress we slept on in Sri Lanka.
Excellent homemade breakfast which is different each day.
Really friendly and helpful host, willing to help with any request.
Will arrange cheap motorbike hire. ”

“The staff were excellent, the location was absolutely fantastic and the best dhaal around! Really really lovely hotel! Would definitely stay there again!”
“Breakfast was delicious! WiFi worked well. Anusha was extremely kind and helpful with helping us get into Galle via local buses which was easy from her apartment, around 15 mins to the fort.”
“This hotel is the epitome of old-school English luxury in Sri Lanka. I am disappointed I only spent 1 night here. The breakfast was phenomenal. The overall experience was outstanding!”
“It was a really nice stay at villa republic. Very peaceful environment with an awesome scenic view. Staf was very friendly and helpful. Great place to spend a vacation and for the relaxation”
“Amazing stay. Staff made us feel so welcome. Rooms were very chic in this 17th century restored merchants house. Wonderful location surrounded by restaurants and shopping within the fort.”
“Our stay at Ceylon Olive was an absolute mind blowing experience. The villa we stayed in was very spacious. Suites are bigger than general. The surrounding was very calm and very green.”
