Popular points of interest near the accommodation include Mahamodara Beach, Galle International Cricket Stadium and Galle Fort. Koggala Airport is 13 km from the property, and the property offers a paid airport shuttle service. Brixia cafe & Guest turned out to be a perfect choice of location and comfort for our stay in Galle. It was close to the fort which we were able to walk to easily from the small hotel, and also a 5-10 minute walk to the train station. The hotel has a very relaxing atmosphere. Our room had a large bed excellent air conditioning and a large attached bathroom. There was a large balcony area, which was excellent for viewing the neighbourhood and also for hanging our washed laundry. The breakfasts are truly gourmet. On our final day we had an early start as we had a 7:15 AM train to catch to Colombo. We were very appreciative of the staff arranging for an early breakfast before our departure. Overall our stay was the first class experience.

Facing the beachfront, DORMERO Hotel Sri Lanka Hikkaduwa Beach offers 5-star accommodation in Hikkaduwa and features an outdoor swimming pool, fitness centre and garden. With a terrace, the property also has a restaurant, as well as a bar. The accommodation provides a 24-hour front desk, airport transfers, room service and free WiFi throughout the property. I would like to thank our host Franzi, Kiki and the rest of the team for treating us with the upmost respect and kindness. The wonderful staff was very attentive and made everyone feel at home at all times. Everything has been taken care of from the day we arrived to when we left. Breakfast was fantastic with a lot of varieties. Everything was freshly made with passion and love. Franzi would occasionally give us a ride with the tuktuk when going out, or in need of a quick transport. Her driving skills are simply unmatched and deserves mentioning. The days felt nice and long as the property offers a safe space to retreat from the busy, chaotic roads further south, making you enjoy every second at the property more. Stunning views from all corners into the vast ocean with unforgettable sunsets leave you speechless. Our trip through SriLanka was rapidly transformed from an adventurous busy holiday to a perfect relaxing safe space with direct access to the beach. Leaving this place makes me extremely sad but I am hoping to return soon again to spend some more quality time with the wonderful people I’ve met here, and can call friends. They have made our stay unforgettable. Much love xoxo

There was greenery all around and so very peaceful. The staff was so welcoming, warm and always smiling. Their hospitality was one of the finest. We used to order food in room service and it was super delicious. Somedays I really miss this place. Whenever I visit again, without a second thought I will only stay here.

Boasting a garden, the recently renovated Villa Sea View is situated in the centre of Galle, close to Mahamodara Beach. The property has sea and garden views, and is 800 metres from Galle International Cricket Stadium. The accommodation features a 24-hour front desk, full-day security and currency exchange for guests. Walkable distance to the entrance of Galle Fort. Superbly clean and wonderful view from the room. I would further recommend rooms on the higher floor which is nearing completion next November which will give you a way better view. The toilet and shower is clean and fitting with quality fittings and finishing. Beds were comfy , room size is a bit small but wasn't an issue. Nice seating area in the balcony to enjoy the sea view right in front of the rooms. The food is also very good and tasty, their seafood is one of the best . The owner Ms. Darshie is a very friendly and helpful, she really takes her guest to the heart and ensures each one of them has a comfortable stay. She doubles up as the chef and made us the best breakfast ever ! Overall this is the best hotel for us in the entire Sri Lanka! A special mention for the husband whom took the trouble to drop us off at the Railway station on our departure. Thank you Sir !
