“It was not all bad, but streets are too narrow and nobody is taking the responsibility and at least they don’t mind apol”
It was clean which is a positive and since it’s inside the galle fort, it’s easy to reach out to places and restaurants around.

“Budget friendly”
Functional for £40 a night. Right in the city centre. Quiet. Owner lovely. Rang us to tell us they couldn't check us in until 3 pm on the day of arrival. None/very few mosquitos in comparison to other places we stayed. .

“Very comfortable and well-located”
Really well presented and comfortable room. The most comfortable bed I slept in during my entire trip to Sri Lanka. Great location, too - right in the middle of the fort.

“A Perfect Stay Once Again!”
A Perfect Stay Once Again! This was my second time staying at this charming villa, and once again, it exceeded my expectations in every way. From the moment I arrived, I was greeted by the warm and friendly staff who made me feel right at home. Their hospitality and helpful attitude truly enhance the overall experience. The room was exceptionally clean, with fresh linen and a spotless washroom – something I always appreciate. The bed was super comfortable, and the air conditioning worked perfectly, providing a cool and relaxing environment after a day of exploring. The location is unbeatable – right in the heart of the historic Galle Fort. It's within walking distance to many lovely shops, cafes, and key attractions, making it an ideal base for anyone wanting to experience the charm and culture of the area. Despite being so central, the villa remains peaceful and quiet. This place offers excellent value for money. Everything about the stay felt well thought out and taken care of, making it a truly hassle-free and pleasant experience. I wouldn’t hesitate to return again for a third visit! Highly recommended to anyone visiting Galle

A beautiful dutch style Villa run by Zahran and his family boast of 9 rooms which is well suited especially for a group bookings. The vibe, the heritage experience of the Villa is at premium level. Every room has wardrobe, study table, side table, good mattress, has attached neat bathrooms and have amenities like towel, shower gels, soap are provided. The location is the highlight of Galle with the entire street feels like dutch/ french colony with boutique cafes, shopping , spas and hotels. Few mtrs from the Villa is the ocean view and the landmark fort, lighthouse located nearby. Stayed here from Mar 21 to 23, 2025. Overall a peaceful stay and value for money!

“Convenient and easy”
It was very close to the beach and the lighthouse. Ideal location, if you wanna experience the inner fort, and enjoy a sunrise or the sunset. Ideal for budget travellers, for a comfortable stay.
