We went out around 11 p.m., and by the time we came back to the room, it was about 1 or 2 a.m. Even then, the hotel owner woke up and opened the lobby door for us. He is such a kind person.
Then that akka was good and

Very calm atmosphere with steps down to the beach, very nice hosts and good food!
Location is a little bit far from the city but very easy to get to Galle or Hikaduwa by car or tuk tuk.

An absolutely wonderful place run by a genuinely warm and welcoming Sri Lankan family. The host, Ranjan, truly stands out kind, thoughtful, and always ready to help with anything you need. His dedication is impressive, and the 24/7 commitment to guests really shows. This is easily one of the best value-for-money places I’ve ever stayed at.
The food deserves special mention, delicious, fresh, and prepared with care. The menu is diverse, prices are very affordable, and the portion sizes are generous. The atmosphere is perfect for relaxing and reflecting on life. The open area is right above Dalalla Beach, giving you the feeling that you are on top of the beach itself. With the ocean directly in front of you, the views are stunning, and the sunsets are truly unforgettable.
Dalalla Beach is literally right in front of the property, safe, beautiful, and perfect for swimming or surfing. Whether you want a calm sea bath or to jump on a surfboard and have some fun, everything is just steps away. I would absolutely come back again for a few more relaxing nights and highly recommend this place to anyone visiting the area. A big thank you to Ranjan, and I wish him continued success in running this amazing place.
Nothing major at all, just minor areas with room for improvement, such as keeping the toilets even cleaner. Overall, the place is very clean, comfortable, and exceptionally affordable.

Very Poor
Nothing, sheets were not fresh washed, fan was broken, working only at maximum speed, the room I reserved they rented to someone else and they offered a different room. When we whanted to check out they asked us a lot more money because the room they gave it was "superior" they said.
You can find a lot better at same price, just look a little. And you shorely can find people more nice than this owners who see foreigners like ATMs.
The bed sheets were not washed, they smell bad,
The fan was broken,
they asked more money
They gave the room we reserved to others
The bed is very short and smels awful
A room with the dimensions of a wordrobe

Location and staff were excellent. A family running resort. Better to provide toiletry items and neat bedspreads and towels.
Food options very less.
