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. Very neat, clean and comfortable accommodation. The host is a very friendly and knowledgeable person, he has spent years driving tourists around so has good knowledge of what to do and what not to do, while being completely honest and not pushing anything on to you - which is very unique here. The breakfast was incredibly generous, luckily we fast from 4pm each day so we could fit it in by the morning. There was a large variety of food he kept bringing us so it certainly won't leave you wanting! The location is close to Galle so it makes access to the Fort quick and easy - which we loved. It's also situated across from a beach which we found very nice for chilled sunsets - there were only about

Boasting views of the garden, all units in the property come with private entrance and a pool with a view. Every unit comes with a kettle, a private bathroom and free WiFi, while certain rooms are fitted with a terrace and some have pool views. At the guest house, every unit includes bed linen and towels. I had a beautiful room with an outdoor shower which I loved. The garden is a real oasis with interesting wildlife to spot and it was really relaxing to spend some time by the pool before walking down to the beach. The garden here is really special and the architecture of the building is beautiful. The staff were super attentive.

The guest house specialises in a continental and Asian breakfast and breakfast in the room is also available. At the property, there is an in-house family-friendly restaurant serving dinner and a selection of vegetarian options. The staff was incredibly nice and helpful. Our room was perfect -- clean, comfortable, and with a beautiful view of the ocean from the patio. One of the best breakfasts we had on our trip.

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.
