Situated in Hikkaduwa, within 400 metres of Narigama beach and 16 km of Galle International Cricket Stadium, DreamTime features accommodation with an outdoor swimming pool as well as free private parking for guests who drive. The property has garden views and is 16 km from Dutch Church Galle and 16 km from Galle Fort. Japanese Peace Pagoda is 21 km from the guest house and Kushtarajagala is 42 km away. We chose the King room, and I have to say, it was amazing. First of all, the shower. We picked it especially for a photoshoot, and it was exactly as good as we'd hoped. Additionally, the whole place was made to look like a jungle, so it felt as though we were sleeping in the only building in some wilderness.

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. My friend and I had a wonderful stay at Ohana. The room was simple and chic and clean, mosquito nets well maintained, nice smelling products in the bathroom. The staff were friendly and helpful and welcoming. Book a surf lesson! I had a lot of fun. Beginners at Weligama and more advanced near the guest house. Breakfast was delicious! Location was a short walk along the busy main drag that runs through town. There is a nice blend of Sri Lankan and western food and finally somewhere to get a good cup of coffee!

Certain units in the guest house have private entrance and are equipped with desk and wardrobe. With a private bathroom, units at the guest house also provide guests with free WiFi, while certain rooms will provide you with a terrace. Big, clean rooms, nice pool, you also have a kitchen if you want to cook 😊 The owners are so kind. 10min drive to the beach. I recommend.

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. It was in the midst of greenery and beauty. But a little far from the beach but with a tuk tuk which the hotel arranged just five minutes. It was one of the most relaxing and best holidays ever. Teh swimming pool was clean rooms and bathrooms were also very clean. We were given something for the mosquitos in the room for the night. It was a eco friendly and sustainable kind of villa. Expect to bring your own toiletries since what they give is basic and which is totally fine. There were wonderful cute cats and kittens which added to the charm of the place. Breakfast was basic but again that's ok since we wanted to go explore other places for lunch and dinner so it's good to keep it light. Fruits were very fresh clean and good. Sankar and the night guard made us feel safe and helpful with all requests. Just loved the stay a bit too much that I am now missing it terribly.

Set in Hikkaduwa, 100 metres from Narigama beach and 17 km from Galle International Cricket Stadium, Alvas house offers air-conditioned accommodation with a terrace and free WiFi. With garden views, this accommodation provides a balcony. Outdoor seating is also available at the guest house. Susanna and Tusharo (please excuse me if I’m misspelling the names :) were wonderful hosts. Welcoming and informative. It really felt like our own house. Spotless clean, equipped with everything a traveler needs, beautiful nature around, a garden well kept. Another great thing is the hosts really care about animals and Tusharo shared fascinating information about the connection local people share with the sea turtles (we got lucky and swam with them). The beach has some great surf. Would love to come back and stay more.

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. Everything was perfect! The location is right on the beach, the host is very friendly and helpful and the food is amaizing. Also, there are a lot of restaurants and bars on the beach nearby. I totally recommend this place.
