Beautiful setting! The furniture was lovely and the decoration thoughtful. The plants and pool area were beautiful and peaceful. The staff were really friendly and helpful. The food was delicious as well - I loved the vegetable curry especially. Not far from galle fort and more. Wish we stayed for more nights.

This beautifully restored property brings you back in time in the most elegant way. We loved every minute of our stay and our room and surrounds were unparalleled. It’s an easy still into the bustling town, but to be honest we almost felt like we didn’t want to leave. The staff were as welcoming and friendly as you could possibly imagine.

From the moment I arrived the staff did an amazing job, nothing was any trouble and always a smile.. add to this an amazing building and decor you have an amazing hotel. I made the mistake of booking a place in the fort for the social aspect that was more expensive and half as nice in every department, probably forgo the 3 nights in the new place and return to Taavetti, you won't regret booking i promise you.

It is wonderful stylish villa as expected. Located in the heart of this historic and iconic city, we enjoyed strolling to see the sunrise and sunset and exploring the beautiful shops. The staff were very nice and helpful. Mr. Azwan arranged a car charter. It was actually trustworthy because the driver is smart enough with a beautiful TOYOTA car. If you have any plan to do that, please ask the hotel they arrange you with a best value.

It's a great property, with a very friendly and helpful staff. The best thing about this property was the breakfast that was served every morning.Moreover, when we wanted details related to trains and buses leaving for Colombo, we were promptly helped by the staff, I think her name was Sagarika. Would definitely visit again!

Amazing environment, best resort and spa ever. I have never experienced such impressive hospitality. I am vegan and they prepared a menu for me personally. They have great Yoga classes and spa. I was treated with respect and appreciation. All problems are solved within a single day. There are no words to describe how much I recommend the experiences offered here to anyone.

What a lovely little hotel! Everything is decorated with a lot of love and the room was very comfortable and clean. The staff and the owners of the hotel were very sweet and helpful, organising a taxi to the airport and communicating with us before our arrival. The food was also very tasty. At our arrival, when the owner realised we only booked a second night so that we could freshen up in the evening before driving to the airport, she offered us the breakfast after the first night, which we thought was a lovely and kind gesture. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a place to stay in Galle.

What a paradise! We stayed 2 nights at this beautiful resort. A total green and well designed garden, individual villas designed by owner. Every detail we loved it! Especially the welcome, the flowers on the bed and everywhere in the room, many beautiful objects collected by owner, the natures around, the swimming pool. You can feel the owner and their team have good concept of hospitality, to care. Also talked with owner, you feel his total passion about design, about building a place with real care. He also showed us his another new hotel which is amazing too. We also loved breakfast, good choice of various food. We hope we will be back again with family!

    The Galle Fort in Galle is my absolute favorite place — it has a vibe of its own. It’s completely safe at any time of the day, even for solo travelers. There’s so much history within the Fort walls to learn about and beautiful architecture to explore. The hosts at the restaurants and hotels inside the Fort are amazing, and the service is truly of international standard. The view of the Indian Ocean from the Ramparts is simply breathtaking. There are plenty of restaurants offering a wide variety of cuisines and dishes to try. Outside the Fort, I highly recommend visiting the beaches at Unawatuna, just a few kilometers from Galle City Centre. While you’re there, don’t miss the Japanese Peace Pagoda at Rumassala — you won’t regret it! Yaddehimulla Road in Unawatuna has everything from surf schools and restaurants to gem shops, gelato spots, international cuisines, and everything in between. For quick bites and essentials, SPAR Supermarket at Galle City Centre is your go-to place. You’ll find tasty rice and curry meals, ready-to-eat options, mosquito repellent, basic medical supplies, snacks, good-quality fruits, and other everyday necessities.

    If you're going to Galle, stay inside the Fort. Lots of charming little villas and boutique hotels where you can drop your bags and go walkabout, soaking in the colonial charm and enjoying the relaxed vibe. Great food options, live music and incredible sunsets.

    The vibe that Galle fort shares during anytime of the day is marvelous. It is a super child friendly place with amazing shops and places at every corner. It has the ambience of a unique blend between antiquity and modernity filled with aesthetic taste of rich culture and art. Seems its potential is still untapped fully. Loved the eateries and little cafes designed with elegance and charm. It showcases the serenity of a typical European port city with Dutch colonial architecture.

    We originally had one full day planned at Galle but we ended up being there for longer. We didn't need to be there any longer than one day. The walk around the Fort was lovely but there were not really many good shops to see and it was a little touristy in the Fort. Unfortunately they still let cars and motorbikes and Tuk Tuks in the street of the Fort which was difficult to navigate. Not really much to do in Galle except for the Fort.

    This was a very comfortable and excellently located hotel. The outstanding element to our stay were the hotel staff led by Hirudima. They were delightful and Hirudima went out of his way to be helpful and friendly. He even organised a courier to deliver a bag we left behind to our next location. The hotel staff made our stay in Galle a real pleasure and were among the very best we have encountered throughout our many hotel stays in Sri Lanka.

    Amazing old style restored colonial house inside the old fort, the location could not be better for a couple of days in Galle. Every room has its own charm and identity and the feel of a boutique hotel. The staff is super helpful - special mention to Sedesh for helping us with our onward travel.l and making us feel extra welcomed. Special mention for the breakfast which is the best we had in Sri Lanka by a long stretch.

There are also restaurants to eat and many other activities nearby. For example the town of Galle. I highly recommend the accommodation.
