Galle Fort is 3 km from the guest house, while Galle Light house is 3.4 km away. Koggala Airport is 16 km from the property. This is hospitality akin to a five star resort. We booked last minute due to our original accommodations having been flooded due to heavy rains. Mr. Ajith waited up for us late at night, welcomed us into his home so we can have a late dinner, and brought us lemon juice straight from his lemon tree. He prepared a delicious multi-course breakfast, helped us with our bags, and communicated with our tuk tuk driver so they knew where we were going. We really felt so special being a guest at the Tide’s Tale and wished we could have stayed longer. The room is simple, but exceptionally clean. Plus the bed was extremely comfortable. Thank you for your hospitality, Mr. Ajith. You’ve warmed our hearts!

Set in Hikkaduwa, 100 metres from Narigama beach and 17 km from Galle International Cricket Stadium, Alvas house offers air-conditioned accommodation with a terrace and free WiFi. With garden views, this accommodation provides a balcony. Outdoor seating is also available at the guest house. Susanna and Tusharo (please excuse me if I’m misspelling the names :) were wonderful hosts. Welcoming and informative. It really felt like our own house. Spotless clean, equipped with everything a traveler needs, beautiful nature around, a garden well kept. Another great thing is the hosts really care about animals and Tusharo shared fascinating information about the connection local people share with the sea turtles (we got lucky and swam with them). The beach has some great surf. Would love to come back and stay more.

The units at the guest house feature private entrance and soundproofing so guests can enjoy a peaceful stay. There is a private bathroom with walk-in shower in all units, along with bathrobes and free toiletries. At the guest house, every unit is fitted with bed linen and towels. We spent two nights at this lovely guest house and had an amazing experience. The location is perfect — right by the sea and in a very quiet area, far from the noise of the city, which made our stay even more relaxing. Direct access to the beach. The hosts were incredibly kind, helpful and attentive throughout our visit. They made us feel very welcome and at home. Breakfast was a real highlight: generous, varied and prepared with great care. Every morning we enjoyed a delicious and beautifully arranged meal — a perfect start to the day. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a peaceful seaside getaway with warm hospitality and excellent service. We would definitely come back!
