Private parking is available on site at this recently renovated property. The accommodation offers free WiFi throughout the property, as well as a terrace and a family-friendly restaurant. The accommodation was absolutely great. The room was cozy, comfortable and clean. But the biggest thanks go to the owner, who was very friendly, smiling and helped us with everything and accommodated us. The outdoor seating is also worth mentioning, which was very pleasant. The whole place has a magical atmosphere led by its owner and her family. I highly recommend it to everyone and I hope we will come back soon!

Set a few steps from Mahamodara Beach and 2.3 km from Galle International Cricket Stadium in the centre of Galle, The Tide's Tale offers accommodation with free WiFi and free private parking. The property was built in 2022 and features air-conditioned accommodation with a terrace. The property is non-smoking and is situated 2.8 km from Dutch Church Galle. My friend and I stayed here for one night and we couldn’t have picked a better place. Ajith, our host, was unbelievably helpful and kind. We had just made a shady experience with a tuk tuk driver and Ajith helped us get out of the situation and organised a new transport for us. He made us feel so safe and his breakfasts are phenomenal. The bedroom is clean, has AC, hot water - literally anything you need.

At the homestay, all units come with a desk. With a private bathroom equipped with a bidet and free toiletries, units at the homestay also have free WiFi, while some rooms come with a terrace. At the homestay, the units come with bed linen and towels. We had a wonderful stay at Villa Ema — one of the most beautiful places we stayed at during our trip through Sri Lanka. It’s a true oasis of peace where the only sounds you hear are birds chirping — absolutely fantastic! The owners and staff were incredibly friendly and easy to reach via WhatsApp. They were always helpful and attentive. We highly recommend this place to anyone travelling to Sri Lanka and looking for a stay in the Galle area!
