The co-working area is solid too. Fast WiFi, plenty of space, and a good setup to get work done. Location is perfect. Would definitely stay here again.

Boasting a garden, the recently renovated Villa Sea View is situated in the centre of Galle, close to Mahamodara Beach. The property has sea and garden views, and is 800 metres from Galle International Cricket Stadium. The accommodation features a 24-hour front desk, full-day security and currency exchange for guests. Walkable distance to the entrance of Galle Fort. Superbly clean and wonderful view from the room. I would further recommend rooms on the higher floor which is nearing completion next November which will give you a way better view. The toilet and shower is clean and fitting with quality fittings and finishing. Beds were comfy , room size is a bit small but wasn't an issue. Nice seating area in the balcony to enjoy the sea view right in front of the rooms. The food is also very good and tasty, their seafood is one of the best . The owner Ms. Darshie is a very friendly and helpful, she really takes her guest to the heart and ensures each one of them has a comfortable stay. She doubles up as the chef and made us the best breakfast ever ! Overall this is the best hotel for us in the entire Sri Lanka! A special mention for the husband whom took the trouble to drop us off at the Railway station on our departure. Thank you Sir !
