Taavetti is a small boutique style hotel but is actually newly refurbished in execllent quality. The place is very clean amd tidy and the room was excellent. Its quiet and the staff are excellent neat and well mannered. We were received in an excellent way especially after a 2 hour drive from colombo. We were offered fresh juice and a cool towel while checking in. Checking was straight forward and easy. The hotel has its own access to a beach and restairant. We mainly had breakfast there. Its a set menu breakfast that gives u a choice of english french and asian breakfasts. The location of the hotel is not where all the 5* hotels are but beaches are beautiful in most places and Taavetti has a nice stretch of beach with seating and umbrellas

As we returned to our daily routines, it took us a while to revisit(unfortunately ony in our memories)this wonderful place and share our opinion. Ultimately, we highly recommend it, but more on that in a moment. We found the hotel somewhat by accident, searching among many on Booking.com. We loved the view from the private pool in our room, as well as the view of nature from the hotel pool. In reality, we saw exactly what we saw in the photos on Booking.com. The location was excellent, and for those who are apprehensive about it, I should add that we traveled with our 10-year-old son and had no problems getting to and from the hotel in the middle of the jungle, even in the evenings. We could always count on the helpfulness of the hotel staff. The location is picturesque, the cottages are of a high standard, and the hotel staff keep them impeccably clean. The hotel staff are very helpful, the food is excellent, and the chef cares about the customer and is also able to adapt to any situation (allergies, child). We tried many restaurants, and this one proved to be one of the best in terms of food quality. A place where you can relax surrounded by nature, which is right at your fingertips. A true haven for those seeking peace and complete relaxation (with extras like a swimming pool and massages—these are available upon request) and superb cuisine, surrounded by the sounds of nature. We highly recommend this place and will happily return in the future. We thank the staff for their dedication and smiles.

This was our first visit to Sri Lanka. We booked last minute and could not prepare this holiday. The hotel is run as a bed and breakfast, which was exactly what we like. The owner and staff were super friendly and helpful to make our little trip very special and helped create amazing memories. Galle fort, actually a walled little town, has beautiful restored colonial houses turned in very good restaurants, hotels and shops. Beaches are close-by for sun bathing and surfing.

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.

Sri Lanka is a beautiful country – the landscape and wildlife, the food and its people. All of this can be experienced much better at Ginganga Lodge – an exceptionally magnificent place to relax and visit Galle or just enjoy Sri Lanka. Great interior design! We loved the pool, the local dishes and the smell of cinnamon!!! The hotel is managed with the utmost care and guests are treated with the utmost respect and hospitality. Even the WiFi works, although you feel like you're living in the middle of the jungle. Highly recommended!

Brilliant stay with Mahesh and his lovely family in Galle. Room was spotless with a posh, hotel-standard bathroom—proper plush towels and all that. Because it’s on the top floor, it feels like you have your own space. They greeted me with a cuppa, sorted me out with local tips, then invited me to join their kottu dinner (absolutely delicious). Breakfast was outstanding, too. Felt more like staying with friends than a booking. If you fancy a bit of luxury without losing that genuine Sri Lankan warmth, this is the one.
