The Lodge is very well made. Malik and his family are very welcoming. The breakfast provided is amazing. The location is very good, in a quiet area, close to Galle Fort. You can even borrow some bicycles. Malik also provides very good tours around Galle Fort - definitely a recommendation!

Manthally Cabanas offers unique, handcrafted cabanas in a Jungle setting just 1.5 mile inland from the beautiful Narigama Beach and 2 miles from Hikkaduwa Beach.

The most exceptional parts of the stay were breakfasts! Kindly made by the keeper of Cabanas - Loco, who explain everything about ingredients and cooked vegan options. All members of the stuff did everything to provide comfortable and pleasant stay. Location is really good - trees, beautiful birds, but there is a one nuance, if you do not like insects like mosquitoes and others use spray or aroma stick to avoid a meeting with them. In general cabanas was really comfortable accommodation even for a long stay. Highly recommended for nature lovers and people who like explore new locations.

Offering garden views, Subodinee Bungalow in Weligama has accommodations, an outdoor swimming pool, a garden, a terrace and a restaurant.

Initially we planned to stay 1 week at Subodinee’s bungalows, but after the first night we realized we wanted to stay there for the rest of our holidays. The reasons for that was this huge beautiful garden, like a park, where you can see birds like peacocks, kingfishers, bee-eaters, and hummingbirds. And the second big reason to stay was delicious food they serve there, especially dinners. Our bungalow was very clean, and spacious. It had AC, shower, there was additional sink in a common space, a workspace, a mini fridge, a kettle. Cleaning service every week, additionally you could book a laundry service. There was a pool, but we never used it, because beach was a few mins down the road. The owners are very warm and friendly people. The whole place has chill and friendly atmosphere. We had an amazing time, and would definitely love to come back.

    Amazing stay. The terrace at the river is a great place to sit and watch all kinds of animals, and the bird safari is highly recommended, too! The breakfast was rich and tasty, and the owners' hospitality was overwhelming. Thank you!

    Mr Ruka, his wife & daughter were friendly & helpful. The home-cooked food was plentiful & good. Mr Ruka organised an excellent river safari, where we saw lots of birds & other wildlife, & insisted we took his china teapot & cups on the boat with us, so we could enjoy our morning tea! The hotel's riverside location is lovely - great to watch the birds while eating breakfast under the canopy in the garden. Mr Ruka also offers a tuktuk service.

    Everything about our four nights at Ginganga Lodge was exceptional and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it. The setting is beautiful and the attention to detail impressive. The staff are attentive without being in any way intrusive and the food, and the cocktails, were all delicious. We stayed in the Deluxe Suite which was just amazing. We took advantage of the tuktuk service into Galle and were always picked up promptly when we requested a return. We stayed in some superb places on our three week trip but this was the best.

    Our extended stay at Indika's Residence was beyond memorable. The warmth of the family made it feel like home. I highly recommend both Indika's Residence and Ginganga Lodge for an extraordinary experience. Can't wait to return!

    Indika's Residence surpassed my expectations. Impeccable cleanliness, tasteful decor, and thoughtful amenities create a welcoming atmosphere. Daily housekeeping and access to Ginganaga Lodge's delightful breakfast added to the charm. The resort's amenities, including the pool, enhanced relaxation. Indika's personal touch, with transportation assistance and local recommendations, made our stay truly unforgettable. Highly recommended for a memorable vacation experience

    Amazing little homestay located right on the beach.you can access the private beach, but it's not good to swim. The room was air conditioning and clean. The host welcomed and cared for us as their own relatives. The meals were amazing and super delicious. She prepared us crabs and a large fish, which made it fresh. The owner brought us to very nice spots in Galle city area, including a boat safari.. It was wonderful .. Thank-you Darshi for everything.. you made our day with lots of fun.

    This was my second visit and it was even better than last year. Ginganga Lodge is quite exceptional with 6 beautifully designed suites in the midst of idyllic tropical gardens and surrounded by nature. It is the perfect retreat from the hustle and bustle of Galle city yet it is just a short tuk tuk ride away. The restaurant offers well presented delicious meals and the staff are always friendly and attentive. A thoroughly enjoyable finale to our visit to Sri Lanka
