“Amazing stay, great friendly hosts!”
The hosts were very welcoming, the outdoor areas were really a highlight (we had lots of wildlife in the garden which was great). The whole place was really clean with bug repellant plug ins which were great.

I can confidently say this is the best place we've stayed at in Sri Lanka. After touring for more than 1.5 months where we stayed in 9 different places in various parts of the island, I can assert with confidence that you should book here without hesitation. The place is located in a quiet area surrounded by nature. Yet, it takes only a short walk to the beach where you can see turtles and to Galle road (main road where you can find tuktuks, restaurants, fruit shops, supermarkets, liquor stores, souvenir stores etc.). We booked the ground floor apartment; it is spacey, super clean, comfortable with everything you need (ACs, hot water, wifi, kitchen appliances, blow dryers, etc.). It really exceeded our expectations! The owners are very nice, hospitable, and know how to make guest feel comfortable and welcome. I would like to thank them for the amazing stay :)

Very nice owners! They treated us to drinks upon check-in and check-out, as well as plenty of bottled drinking water in the room. The room was cleaned and there were no insects or reptiles in the room. The beds are comfortable, there is hot water in the shower, air conditioning in the rooms, and a chill-out area. In general, everything is great!)

It was a wonderful stay, host family was very friendly and hospitable. Our apartment was clean and neat, very good value for money. Ability to use the washing machine is another big plus. Kitchen is rather low but appliances are new and has everything you need. Comparing to the other place where we are staying I can say that Halcyon is excellent.

There are two big rooms, each equipped with a king sized bed, cupboard, personal bathroom, AC, fan and all of the supplies you may be needing (like toothpaste, mini shampoo, razors, toothbrushes) The owners are amazing!! They provided water and many times prepared some freshly squeezed juices for us!

The host and location is amazing . I came here for 5 days, and stayed for 5 months at another new villa . Location is great 5-10 minutes to everything you need : beach , restaurants, groceries, market. The villa itself also very good : pretty spacious with new renovation and high quality furniture.

Owners. They were very hospitable and not only formally. Our back flight was delayed for 10 hours - they offered us another room where we could wait our car in comfortable conditions and there was a very tasty fish soup!) Thank you! Good luck to you and your country! About apartments: spacious, comfortable, near the turtles’ beach but in quiet place
