We loved our stay here so much that we booked again for our return to Colombo stay. The staff were so lovely and enthusiastic and helpful. The villa is gorgeous, so small and intimate. Only 4 rooms so we basically had it to ourselves as it was nearing the end of season in late April. We had a free tuk tuk ride to Galle Fort and this way we met a wonderful driver who ended up being a large part of our travels and a friend for life ! We caught the train from Colombo Fort to Galle and the villa is only a 5 minute tuk tuk ride. . Highly recommend 👌 👍 👏

    Unique stay in authentic, beautifully decorated Sri Lankan home of the owner of the Barefoot boutique shops. Only two rooms so it is like staying in your own private villa in the best location, right in the heart of Galle Fort. Seconds from shops and restaurants, yet very quiet and peaceful. Just a few minutes walk to beach and incredible sunsets. Room was nice, with comfortable beds and good A/C. We stayed one night, which we felt was enough for Galle Fort.

    Great value for money. The room was really nice, really big cool and comfortable. The area is lovely and catches the sun until mid afternoon. chipmunks and monkeys around. Location is a little away from everything, enjoyed staying a little further out, it was very peaceful and only about 5-10 minutes drive into Unawatuna. This is a lovely Villa.

    A very sweet expat family welcomed us to their holiday home. The apartment is very clean and comfortable. Laundry machine is a big plus. The family lives next door, and they were very helpful regarding getting around in the area, ordering us a taxi etc. The host is super kind and often invited us to eat with them. 10/10 would recommend to anyone who is staying in Galle or in surroundings.
