Located just 7 km from Galle International Cricket Stadium, Happy Valley Residence Unawatuna offers accommodation in Galle with access to a garden, a terrace, as well as a shared kitchen. Private parking is available on site at this recently renovated property. The guest house features family rooms as well as facilities for disabled guests. It was our very first night in Sri Lanka. As we arrived late, we just slipped into our beautiful and comfortable bed in the bedroom surrounded by antic furniture. Tomorrow morning we were just amazed by the garden's mango, jackfruit, coconut, beatiful flowers, peacocks in the tree. The host led us through their garden before the large and delicious home-made breakfast.

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. I stayed over a week at Ohana and could have stayed away longer. Everything was perfect. Location is great, rooms are brand new, and besides the family running the house is amazing.

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.

Bentota Railway Station is 4.2 km from the guest house, while Aluthgama Railway Station is 4.9 km from the property. Located just right on the beach, you can see the ocean from the room. The room was clean, hot water, A/C was working. The breakfast was very good. If you have any preferences in the way of cooking, you can ask the guys and they will try to do all the best for you. The beach is very nice and empty. Nothing to do around, but if you are exhausted and want just to have a rest in peace and quiet-this is the perfect place for you.

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. Lovely location, clean room and helpful owner! I would really recommend the place. An escape from the busy city to a chill place directly at the beach. Relaxing sound of the ocean at night
