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. Everything! The facilities are outstanding, clean, confortable and great view to relax. Mr. Ajith a friendly and welcoming host, including the lemonade so open to share about his country and answer any questions.

The location is so convenient, easy to reach with a Tuk- Tuk and Pickme app, recommended for him to avoid overcharging cost.

Certain units in the guest house have private entrance and are equipped with desk and wardrobe. With a private bathroom, units at the guest house also provide guests with free WiFi, while certain rooms will provide you with a terrace. The room was very clean and comfortable so we felt it like home from the first time. Hosts were very friendly and kind and they did their best for us, especially their daughter who speaks very good English and she helped us even with the informations we needed about our transportation. We have to mention also that they made for us a special breakfast from Sri Lanka that we wanted to try. We highly recommend this hotel for vacations!

Bentota Railway Station is 4.2 km from the guest house, while Aluthgama Railway Station is 4.9 km from the property. There are no words to describe this place—just book it and experience it yourself! Cleanliness is top-notch, meeting European standards. The beach feels almost private, and the food is absolutely delicious. It’s a peaceful and quiet retreat, yet just 3km away from the bustling Bentota if you're looking for more activities. Sea View Villa truly feels like heaven on earth, and I'm not exaggerating when I say that.

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.

Accessible via private entrance, all units have air conditioning, soundproofing, desk and a private bathroom with a bidet. Some units have a terrace and/or a balcony with pool views and an outdoor dining area. At the guest house, units have bed linen and towels. In February 2024 we (2 adult and 3y.o. kid) had an awesome time staying at The Ritz villa. The host family is super nice and accommodating. They helped us with transfer booking and laundry. Overall the room was super clean and quite modern and they cleaned it and changed bed every 3-4 days and the territory was cleaned several times a day. In the room was everything that could be needed except just small fridge, but I believe it's the matter of time, because as I understood from the reviews last summer there was no pool - which is also great and served us a lot during our stay there. There was just a big fridge in the "lobby" for all the guests to keep their products. There is also small kitchen that guest can use, but we didn't as there are a lot of good and not expensive spots around. Location of the villa is very convenient - just 5 mins to the beach and there is a railway which surprisingly didn't disturb like we expected. If you are in search of cozy, quite, clean and family stay, look no more further!
