Off the beaten track
A lovely guest house with an amazing pool, a very quiet peaceful place to relax in. A great place to see some of the wild life close up - a daily visit from a troop of monkeys, twice daily visits from the kingfisher.... Lovely.
Huge breakfasts!
Tuc tuc required to get anywhere.
It will be excellent when the guest house is completely finished - all those little finishing off things.
A lovely stay.

Great hotel. Very peaceful.
We stayed at the hotel for 2 nights and the owners were so nice and so helpful. Great food if a little too much of it. It’s a bit out of Galle but was so quiet and peaceful and a Tuc Tuc was less than £2 into Galle. The room was great with a fridge kitchen and a kettle. Beds very comfy and bathroom was good size too. We had a beautiful kingfisher that came 3-4 times a day and also saw monkeys. I would recommend this hotel to anyone and such good value too

Difficult stay!
The place is app 15 minutes drive from the fort and the area is rather rural. The hotel has no restaurant and it is quite dirty. Especially the pool. The owners are very sweet and sericeminded but dont speak English. But they help you with everything. Unfortunately you CANNOT pay by card. That meant the owner spent the mirning driving me from ATM to ATM in order to gather enough cash to pay. Ridicilous!
