I absolutely loved my time at Olinda! Everything about it felt special. The place was spotless, the decor is stunning, the food was lovely, and most importantly, the team running it was nothing short of amazing. It’s one of those rare places that feels both luxurious and deeply welcoming. If it’s available, don’t hesitate—book it! I highly recommend it and would love to return in the future.

Epic end to a Sri Lankan journey in a truly surreal small luxury hotel I had the pleasure of staying at this stunning luxury enclave overlooking the surreal ocean and Koggala lake during my memorable trip to Sri Lanka. I encountered a smooth check-in with warm greetings and a refreshing homemade drink made out of garden plucked ingredients. How lovely! Chef met me on arrival and made sure the favorite Sri Lankan curries and flavors are well heard and looked after. Room was thoughtfully designed with every detail being looked at, something you would expect a luxury resort of this level to be of. It smelled of Cinnamon and towels / bed linen were so fluffy and fresh. Restaurant The Dutch served warm, freshly cooked meals. Their Coconut Prawn Curry was the best. Service by Akila and team was impeccable. After lunch I was ready for a day by their amazing jungle pool surrounded by lush green overlooking the magical ocean. It was really relaxing and again the drinks and food served by the lounge was top notch. I had the most rejuvenating treatment at their Spa and the therapist was so diligent. All areas were clean and tidy with manicured gardens. I felt like I was in a very special place. Next day morning I ascended a small peak close to the resort with their in-house guide Nuwan on a very special tour of his family temple where he drew the life story of Lord Buddha. They also had few more experiences made in-house. A thoughtful addition to the stay.

    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.

    We loved this small cozy hotel which was really worth the money. The pool was clean and wonderfully framed by vegetation. The monkeys jumped around in the trees and we got wonderful pictures of them. The 5 minute tuktuk ride to Galle fort, a beautiful area with lots of sights, eateries and shopping was free. At the hotel they had an unusual number of breakfast options. Everything from Sri Lankan breakfast to different pancakes and waffles and fresh fruits. The beds were comfortable and the area around the hotel was very quiet!

    Arches Fort was very welcoming providing access to our room very early when we arrived after overnight travel from the UK. The room was compact but well equipped with a nice bathroom and very cofartable bed. Good wifi. The Sri Lankan breakfast was excellent. The hotel manager put us in touch with a driver to take us to our next destination at the same rate as Uber. The location is in the centre of Galle Old Fort so there are many restaurants, shops etc nearby but our room in the rear courtyard was very quiet.

The accommodation was very comfortable, the location was good but… I have no doubt that at De Moda boutique hotel we met the most friendly hosts from this vacation. Thank you, guys , for all the attention & kindness and advice that you showed us!
