What did I like about the property? Well it’s very tranquil and peaceful. The staff are very welcoming. They only have maybe 20 rooms which means it’s very calm.
The hotel as a hole is way nicer than it probably looks like in the listing photos the rooms are incredible the bathrooms amazing the beds are really really comfortable. We visited as the very first stop of our honeymoon and they also upgraded as which was really kind of them the staff and their service was simply perfect. They even made us a big cake to congratulate on our marriage when we dined there for dinner.
It also looked like the perfect place to go get some spa treatments. We just didn’t have the time whilst we were there and our flying visit. It seems very tranquil if you’re looking for somewhere to escape for a few days as a bit of a wellness centre look no further.
There’s nothing I didn’t like about the property

Absolutely beautiful place with incredibly kind staff and manager. A real haven for relaxation and brilliantly close to the airport yet so peaceful. We loved our tour of the vegetable gardens, the amazing pool and the children loved the kite making. The food was also delicious and all of the people working there were wonderful. We loved it and would love to come back, thank you for a wonderful stay!

Stunning historic Mena house in a perfect location between Colombo and Colombo airport.
The hotel is a true gem. Local cuisine is served at the restaurant ( amazing ) and the swimming pool is a great place to relax and unwind.
Had one of the best massages of my life at the hotel spa !
I truly recommend it!

What was once the residence of the Head Chieftain of Galle has been restored to a pristine condition and offers views on all sides on lush greenery. The rooms have beautiful volumes with natural light openings and connections with the lawn on one side and the inner pond on the other. Furniture and design are artfully true to the historical character of the site. Magnificent indoor pond surrounded by the unique inwards facing tiled roof. Service is impeccable from Mr Dinesh at the reception to Chandrakumar at dinner and Mr Lishant for breakfast. Glorious menu doing justice to local ingredients and wines spanning from New Zealand to France. The swimming pool surrounded by flowers and canopy is the perfect chilling spot prior to a happy hour centred around the local spirits. An unmistakable success by Teardrop!

The beautiful garden, the pool, the food, the kind service, the historic architecture.
The room needed a little sprucing up….maintenance and paint!

Beautiful colonial house, very large rooms and bathrooms, excellent food for dining and breakfasts, large garden with beautiful swimming and nice spa. Staff is extremely friendly and professional and helpful. Everything was perfect!
Need to book the spa in advance as there wasn’t enough slot available for us which was a shame

Location was perfect for the last two days of our 2 week long trip in Sri Lanka. A great place to chill and do yoga, have exceptional massages, eat the most delicious food before your long flight home. There is nothing much to see in the very local area so it really is a place to 'land' and settle either when you arrive in Colombo Airport or are leaving from it.

Beautiful property and gardens with an old colonial feel. It was a shame we could only stay one night. The breakfast was exceptionally excellent and the staff in the restaurant very friendly.
The room was a bit small, but they obviously have to work with the structure they had. More thought could have been given to the lushness of the planting around the room terrace, which looked a bit sad with a couple of chairs and a table in the middle.
of a bare space.

Beautiful boutique hotel close to the airport (but you’d never know). They had a fairly extensive menu considering this is not a big property and it was delicious. The staff were exceptional and we loved our stay of three nights here. They had complimentary afternoon tea and drinks every afternoon which was a fabulous touch, which you took on the veranda. The kids played croquet on the lawn while we’d have a G&T and then return for a board game with us. Couldn’t have been more perfect.
Nothing. It was impeccable.
