Incredible views directly to the ocean. It couldn’t have been better. The sound of the waves was like a meditation to me- I slept really well. The space downstairs was perfect for the yoga session- really calming, with relaxing views and I truly enjoyed the yoga class. The owner is very friendly and helpful and advised us about beach and where we could park. In the hotel there’s a parking for 1 car only, so book in advance.

    GALLE FORT is great for a one day visit.

    GALLE FORT is great for a one day visit. The town is small and some shops are repetitive, with the same items for sale, but there are a few unique shops and restaurants which make a visit worthwhile. Sunsets are beautiful; walk along the top of fort walls. Take a tuk tuk to the local fish market just outside of town for vibrant local life and walk back. We stayed overnight which made the visit more relaxing.

    Galle is a city with a combination of a Dutch period fort and beach with all modern facilities. Dutch Fort is a very live well, reserved place with excellent attractions and choices. Walking over the museums and art galleries located in preserved ancient buildings is an excellent experience. fairly good nightlife available with ample choices of fine dining. within Fort, they charge higher prices due to high tourist demand. yet affordable eateries, supermarkets and facilities are available out of Fort within walking distance. Also people in Galle are very friendly, professional and helpful .

    I was pleasantly surprised when I entered the hotel. It is well designed and the staff was very friendly. The room & bathroom were really clean and comfortable. I also felt really safe there which is a big deal for a solo female traveler. They were even good enough to offer to keep my bags with them until I finished some work in Galle after I checked out. Really thoughtful of them! They kept my bags safe and sound until I returned later that day to collect my bags. They even returned some earrings that I had unknowingly left in my room :)

We love the location on the beach and also convenient to get to Galle Fort. You MUST try the food at Indika’s Villa. Easily the best food we’ve had in all of Sri Lanka. He even arranged a transport for us to our next location. Oh and I got to give a shoutout to the resident dogs, Shadow and Blacky. They made our stay extra lovely!

Quiet, relaxed, very small and charming- feel of a boutique hotel Price wise, for high quality of rooms and service as well as location inside the Fort and easy walking distance to all sightseeing, its a very good deal.

    Perfect for relaxing. The view from the hotel was amazing. We had the suite, and it was the right choice. Exceptional with the pool and the view. Nature all around you. You can see monkeys in the morning and evening. (Being your binoculars) The staff was super friendly and helpful whenever needed. The sri lankan breakfast was very yummy. Even though remotely in the nature if you want to go to galle it is still only 20 min by TukTuk or 5 min to the beach.

The hotel is located in a peaceful area, few minutes away from the city center, train station, bus center, and the beautiful Fort of Galle. You can find many comodities around, restaurants and supermarket, otherwise the hotel can cook delicious Sri Lankan cuisine too.

    The breakfast was delicious. We had a continental, as well as a sri lankan breakfast. The Beach House was very tidy and clean and the staff was super friendly. The location is excellent as well, since the beach house is directly in front of the famous natural pools at Talpe Beach/Galle. We absolutely enjoyed our stay at Violet's and would definitely recommend it to our friends and family.

    It is really central, but quiet, and inside the fort. If you are staying one night in Galle, this is so far the best hotel we have seen. The employees are super nice, and the food they serve is typical from Sri Lanka, but you also have an option for continental breakfast if you want. The room was spacious, and it was nice to wake with monkeys on the balcony.
