Find Hotels in Galle

The hotel is still relatively beautiful, the service is very warm, the room is large, the bed is relatively high, the lady may be slightly troublesome, but the hotel as a whole is still very beautiful, it is recommended, the location is better, the location is good, the location is not in the ancient city, because the ancient city is not big

Departed for Sri Lanka on September 28, 2023, and checked into the Amangalla Hotel in Galle Fort. It was the sixth Aman hotel to check in. It felt great. Amangalla was built in the 17th century. It was formerly a military command in the Netherlands. It later became the first hotel in Sri Lanka. It was acquired by the Aman Group in 1995. The hotel is not big, but it is well-equipped with swimming pools, massage pools, yoga rooms, etc. , you can experience local shaving services and foot massages. Amangalla is the smallest Aman I have ever stayed in. It is in the middle of the ancient city of Galle and a 10-minute walk from the lighthouse. The surrounding area is very convenient for eating, drinking and entertainment. There is the Tuna and the Crab restaurant, which is a brother restaurant of the one-Michelin-star restaurant in Colombo. If you have enough money, you can try it. Be sure to choose his tea plantation tour, which will also take you to see the sea turtle hatching base and stilt fishing. It was very interesting. Although I fell off and stepped on a rock while fishing on stilts and was injured, I gained interesting photos and a rare life experience. The ancient city of Galle is also worth visiting. Amangalla can arrange cars and tour guides. The hotel is right in the center of the ancient city. The location is good and it is very convenient to go everywhere. Although I fell into the sea while fishing on stilts and cut my feet. All in all, it was still a very interesting experience. The two Amans in Sri Lanka are different from the ones we stayed in before. They are far away from Colombo and do not provide free airport pick-up services. The airport pick-up fee for the five of us was about US$400 in a large amanganla. It should be noted that if two Aman activities are booked for consecutive days, they generally need to be booked from the official website, not Ctrip agents.

We had the most remarkable honeymoon at Saman Villas. I was back after 3 years and the property is impeccably maintained and after a major upgrade, which I could tell from the moment I stepped in. New furniture, advance lighting, brand new decor, the suites had a lovely facelift too, especially the walking closet & bathroom with indoor shower cubicle, great lighting & full mirror in the dressing room, not missing out it’s old world charms like the outdoor tub. We loved how easy & convenient it was, basically just a flick of a button to get anything. The views are next to none! I’m always lost for words to describe such majestic ocean views surrounding us from every direction. The food was fantastic! Every meal we had was absolutely delicious. All home grown, fresh ingredients. We especially loved the Sri Lankan food which was surprising as we are locals but it was different, like an elevated version of Sri Lankan flavours. The staff are really the best! After all the difficulties Sri Lankan tourism has faced since 2019, it was so refreshing to be welcomed by the same familiar faces, eager to make our stay unforgettable. Special mention to Dinushi & the GM Wester Feltman for spoiling us. Every staff member we met was equally friendly & hospitable as if it’s ingrained in their DNA. We can’t recommend Jetwing Saman Villas enough. It truly is a special place. Thank you so much for the magical & joyful stay!

Needless to say jetwing, Lanka's high-end resort hotel brand. Although this is a franchise store and not a direct store, it uses its management team and its products. Small details need to be strengthened. A lot of food is shipped from the lighthouse hotel next to it, so the service time is relatively long, there is no bathtub, and the water output is slightly smaller. The manager is very enthusiastic and the service is in place. The other waiters are less experienced in internships and have poor English communication skills. Overall it is good, the environment has nothing to say, the quiet and private is generally satisfactory.

Loved this place, it has a lot of personality. There are nicer but more expensive places in Galle, and there are cheaper and more run down places. This is the Goldilocks choice. It's a lovely little hotel with a few broken things in every room. In the hot off season, the shared areas are like sitting in a sauna, but there's a little garden pool to cool off in. The perfect walking distance to the fort, short eats, and every morning a different Sri Lankan breakfast. Proper tea service, small but attentive staff. The manager is so helpful, I was here for three things, touring Galle, a unique part of Sri Lanka, locating and visiting some locations where my late father grew up and went to college, and a bit of a religious pilgrimage. The manager, who speaks 5 languages, was ever so helpful in all three aspects of my visit. Up the hill are two more elegant hotels for dinner, down the hill are some really cheap local places to eat, don't miss lunch at the Ministry of Agriculture/ ministry of education canteen. Okay for an overnight, but I would recommend this one of a kind hotel for a few days stay. Especially in the off-season.

We stayed as a family of four in the Ginger suite. Such comfortable beds, strong a/c, food was amazing and the pool was spotlessly clean and refreshing. The staff were so friendly and couldn’t have been more helpful, we had a wonderful stay here. The Fort is tiny so everything is only a 5-10 minute walk, so it was lovely to walk around the shops, cafes and the Ramparts, then come back to the hotel for a refreshing dip in the pool. We stayed for 3 nights, only left the Fort in 1 day to go a turtle hatchery, and got an Uber there which was very easy. Thank you so much for your hospitality!

What a find ! Our large room was absolutely perfect - open the doors and there was the wonderful huge pool! Everything was so lovely, just as the pictures depicted - even better ! Breakfast was great, we had 2 meals at the hotel of an evening which were magnificent and set up poolside for us which was really lovely We were thrilled with our stay . The staff were delightful, helpful and kept the villa in such beautiful condition. Laundry was organised for us which was greatly appreciated as we were on a long trip and needed this done on short notice We cannot rate this Villa highly enough. We really hope to stay again You have a wonderful team of staff Best wishes Mandy and James - Australia

We chose Villa Surf Beach to spend our New Year holidays. We have never regretted it! The restaurant is just amazing. The ocean view, the sizes and taste of the food, cozy atmosphere, and super friendly and welcoming stuff... Best days! Definitely want to come back again. The rooms are also beautiful. Clean and tidy. I love how both the restaurant and the villa are made with the same design elements. Love the arts on the wall and wooden handmade furniture. Stylish and elegant. The location is very сonvinient. FoodCity supermarket is just across the road. And from the villa, you can get to Galle Fort for just 5-10 minutes! The Dewata beach is perfect for surfing, feels like a private place and is not so crowded as Weligama. Already want to come back again :)

Everything, right from the welcome till check out!! Calm and cool beach property. Well arranged all things. Super place for a holiday. Spacious nice room, great breakfast, big pool, enough sun beds for everybody. All of the staff is clearly willing to make your stay comfortable. The long stretch of private beach is right in front of the hotel and we enjoyed a refreshing swim in the sea each day. And also we loved watching the sun sets each evening. Most beautiful swimming pool and well maintained. The hotel location was very nice and we got a room with sea view. Room was very much spacious, clean, comfortable and nicely arranged. Staffs are super friendly, cleanliness is good. Bathroom was equipped with all necessary amenities. The food was great. Breakfast so delicious and filling more varieties. We had satisfy each meal time selecting our meal and it was tasty. Check in and out was really convenient. after seeing a few other properties personally we realized that this was the best decision to stay at Oasey. Just no regrets. Prices are reasonable. Great value for money. We had a pleasant stay and would love to visit again. Thank you to everyone who made our stay special. Yes, we will back.
