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 property is so well curated perfect blend of modern aesthetic with traditional furniture and furnishings. The owner is so sweet and goes above and beyond to make you feel at home. Another highlights would be the open bathroom, I still dream about it today. The property is very clean, filled with beautiful furniture and antique details from the owner's family, he has kept everything in pristine condition for the visitors to appreciate and enjoy. The breakfast was delicious and their home dogs were super friendly too.

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. Fantastic stay! We were warmly welcomed by our host Ajith who made us feel like family. Every morning he would prepare a delicious and abundant breakfast to us on the spot. The property is next to a beach which is as beautiful - if not more so - than the hyped ones in Galle. An overall great experience!

Ohana Surf Guest House has an outdoor swimming pool, garden, a shared lounge and terrace in Ahangama. The property is around less than 1 km from Ahangama Beach, 20 km from Galle International Cricket Stadium and 20 km from Galle Fort. The hotel also features free WiFi as well as a paid airport shuttle service. It was an excellent few days of lounging and surfing. Rodolfo and Ana, affectionately called Papa and Mama by the locals, took the extra step in taking care of me and my friend, catering to different surf levels and spending time 1x1 with us out in the water. Excellent surf right outside the lodge, comfortable rooms with good AC (you will need it!) and fresh breakfasts. Definitely looking forward to my next visit

Boasting views of the garden, all units in the property come with private entrance and a pool with a view. Every unit comes with a kettle, a private bathroom and free WiFi, while certain rooms are fitted with a terrace and some have pool views. At the guest house, every unit includes bed linen and towels. The place is just amazing. It is remote (so you need your own means of transport) and very quiet. The pool, the furniture, the personnel (Azanka especially)…everything was perfect.

The guest house specialises in a continental and Asian breakfast and breakfast in the room is also available. At the property, there is an in-house family-friendly restaurant serving dinner and a selection of vegetarian options. We enjoyed a lot this place. Booked 3 nights there but decided to stay for 2 more. Wonderful place with very beautiful and clean seashore just several meters from the hotel. Waves are high at that time of the year. We liked that it was a couple of km from Hikkaduwa, away from crowds of people, a place to relax and to have a quiet stay. At the same time there was a shop 2 minutes walk and a place to eat, and the Turtle beach, where there were no waves and it's possible to swim, was at 20 minutes walk (many people there). Room was tidy with beautiful and was cleaned every day! Swimming pool was also very clean. Staff is very hospitable and attentive to the needs, always was eager to help and answer lots of questions:) Tasty breakfast. There was an access to drinking water 24/7

The units at the guest house feature private entrance and soundproofing so guests can enjoy a peaceful stay. There is a private bathroom with walk-in shower in all units, along with bathrobes and free toiletries. At the guest house, every unit is fitted with bed linen and towels. My experience at Saman's place is the best beach stay I ever had in my life. It is the perfect place for beach lovers. The property is just 2 Km away from Galle. The beach is in front of the room, there is a patio and with a table and chair, giving a beautiful view while having meals. The place also has sunloungers and a shower area. Saman was really helpful and accommodating, he arranged a scooter at a reasonable price and gave the best recommendation for food and beaches around. We had a really delicious breakfast and it was a lot, prepared by Saman's wife. I highly recommend the place.
