The hospitality of this family was just incredible. From the first meeting with them, I felt totally welcome and their kind attitude made my stay extremely comfortable. I know what I'm talking about because I had stayed in places where I didn't feel that much welcome but this just simply wasn't the case. Sanithu homestay is pretty close to Galle as well as to Bara beach which is less crowded and really beautiful. The WiFi in the homestay was surprisingly good and I was able to teach some online classes without any trouble. I also liked the mattress and I had a very comfortable sleep. There was a mosquito net that kept me safe from the mosquitos and I don't think I got a single mosquito bite there. The bathroom was also really clean and also liked their garden and their cute rabbit too. One thing I should also mention was the food because Champi cooked delicious, budget-friendly meals which were also really healthy and which I enjoyed a lot so I definitely reccommend eating there.

Great Location, Great View from the seaview rooms, Decent free sunbeds on the beach and clean beach towels provided, Breakfast was an added bonus, not western style but they happily made you great toast if you asked. and you had fresh fruit tea coffee juice as well as sri lankan breakfast offerings. Drinks also where slightly cheaper than the surrounding beach bars
One of the best hostel in srilanka and the owner of hostel amazing and staff too
My experience at the Sixth Sense Hostel was absolutely incredible! It was like no other stay I've ever had. The hostel is located in a beautiful and calm place, just a 10-minute walk from the beach. The staff were so friendly and helpful. The manager - Sam, always made sure we had everything we needed for a fantastic time. The accommodation was comfortable, very clean and cozy & relaxing. What's more, there's free laundry. It was truly the best hostel I've ever been to. Totally recommend. You should come and experience it!
The first place we stayed during our trip so it was a good place to recover from jet lag as we didn't plan to do much. The accommodation was right on the beach & was lovely to just step right out onto the sand. The south coast has some strong waves so just be careful when going for a dip! Nice backpacker hostel along the beach that served drinks with a sunset view. Had a few places to eat & fairly priced too.
Right at the beach. You have your own space outside next to your room. The owner was very helpful. He called me to explain how to get there in the middle of the night. I was able to check in late. You can find cheaper options if you have low budget and planning to stay longer. But for this price it is quite decent place considering the fact it is right at the beach
Nice hostel, good and clean rooms, nice beds. Budget Friendly. They have fans for each bed but there's no AC. However it's manageable.
The outside area was exceptional! Unbelievable stunning at night with all the lights and a straight way to the beach. Mani, the owner, is very kind and cooks delicious. We didn’t plan the overnight-stay but in the end it was the best hostel !
About 1.1km near from Galle central. This is big hostel i had ever seen in my srilankan trip. Rooms are well managed, decorated, neat n clean. Wood strusture is fabulous in this hostel. Laundry is at cheap rate for unlimited cloth at once. We can use their kitchen and fridge also. 1-2 min walk there is beach. Free bottle drinking water available. Rooms rates also affordable for couples and dormitory also.
Really nice vibe and beautiful accommodation. Met al lot fellow travellers down there en it was an amazing place to just hang out! The people working there are very nice and the place is near the beach so great location! Best hostel i stayed at in Sri Lanka.
