Located just 7 km from Galle International Cricket Stadium, Happy Valley Residence Unawatuna offers accommodation in Galle with access to a garden, a terrace, as well as a shared kitchen. Private parking is available on site at this recently renovated property. The guest house features family rooms as well as facilities for disabled guests. The stay was amazing! The rooms were spotless, and the washroom was just like in the photos – clean and exactly what we expected. The host was super friendly and went out of their way to help us with everything. The kitchen was fully functional, so we could cook if we wanted, and they were kind enough to prepare a delicious pure veg breakfast on our request. The location was perfect, too – close to everything we wanted to explore. All in all, it was a fantastic experience, and we’d definitely recommend it for anyone looking for a cozy, convenient place to stay!

Set a few steps from Mahamodara Beach and 2.3 km from Galle International Cricket Stadium in the centre of Galle, The Tide's Tale offers accommodation with free WiFi and free private parking. The property was built in 2022 and features air-conditioned accommodation with a terrace. The property is non-smoking and is situated 2.8 km from Dutch Church Galle. 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

At the homestay, all units include a desk. Featuring a private bathroom with a bidet and free toiletries, units at the homestay also provide guests with free WiFi. The units include a safety deposit box. The room was spacious, very clean, and the temperature was great. We also had two fans in the room on top of that. The breakfast in the morning was amazing, definitely the best we've had in Sri Lanka at our hotels. Big and delicious! The mosquito net in the room was very nice as well. The family running the guesthouse were also very lovely and helpful. I would absolutely recommend to stay here.
