Hotel in zona Hiyare Reservoir, Galle

From booking the villa almost a year ago to finally being able to visit in Dec 2023, our whole experience was amazing. Firstly a big thank you to Christophe and Diane who took their time to arrange everything we requested for both Christmas and New Years and made my Father's 75th birthday super special. Christophe and Diane were so accommodating and even arranged a video call with us ahead of our stay to ensure we were all set to go as it was a group of 8 of us and we had hired the whole villa! Approaching the villa itself is mind-blowing and you just realise that it is just as stunning as the pictures. As soon as we got there we were given a tour by Christophe himself and we got to meet all of the staff at the villa who became like our family over our 10 nights stay. Manju and his whole team are so friendly and couldn't do enough for all of us, we truly miss them all so much. The rooms are all amazing and have unique decor, each with an ensuite. The pool area is so peaceful and we spent a lot of time out here in each day just listening to the peacock which roamed around on the grounds and could also see the monkeys in the surrounding trees. One of my favourite spots had to be in the upstairs games room which has 2 swinging chairs where you could sit with your coffee and just listen to the surrounding nature (just felt so zen). We also made use of the gym which was definitely needed after all the delicious food we were eating each day. Christmas Day which was also the same day as our dad's 75th birthday was arranged so well. Christmas dinner was amazing and the fireworks and cake which were arranged ahead of our stay made the whole evening really special. Getting around from the villa to the nearby beaches and Galle was easy to arrange. We just had to let Manju know and he arranged for 3 Tuk Tuk's to take us around and these were very reasonably priced. He also arranged our day trip to Ella with a comfortable mini van which was a memorable trip for us all. Overall we cannot fault our stay and we would love to come back to the Divine. Our last day was emotional as we felt we were leaving family behind, Manju and team we truly miss you and thank you for everything you did for us and making our stay so special.

Very good hotel with nice two swimming pool and beautiful sea view from the main pool. Restaurant and bar are greats. And the best is the staff and the great welcoming and service, thanks again to all the team!! Location of the hotel is good, less than 10mn walk to the main beach. Recommended!

Abbiamo visitato il maggio 2022. Il proprietario era amichevole e utile. Ha aiutato per l'affitto di bicicletta e per il cambio di valuta. Finalmente ha anche aiutato per il trasporto mentre abbiamo viaggiato dal Galles a Ella. Sono dotati di un'abitazione per riempire l'acqua con giochi all'ingresso. La stanza era pulita con Wi-Fi e altre strutture di base.

Tucked in down Lighthouse Street within the fort at Galle you’ll find the Charleston, and what a find it is! It’s a modern boutique hotel with fantastic rooms and amazing bathrooms. And there’s even a pool! The staff were welcoming, helpful, and accommodating. Breakfast can be taken in the dining room or on the terrace overlooking the sea. It’s good and served from a small a la carte menu. The hotel decor is to an exceptionally high standard, reflecting the art deco theme, and it was immaculately clean. As an added bonus the first floor terrace faces west where you can enjoy the spectacular views of the sunset whilst sipping the hotel’s signature cocktails. If you’re looking to stay an exceedingly good hotel within the walls of Galle Fort, I’d highly recommend the Charleston

L'hotel è design contemporaneo proprio fuori dalla zona forte 15m camminare grande piscina vista sull'oceano se non fosse così roccioso avrebbero le proprie camere spiaggia sono molto grandi alcune con una piscina immersa ottimi colazione grandi scelte verg se preferisci la Il personale è gentile e farà qualsiasi cosa per aiutarti se ti piace il vecchio stile coloniale rimanere nel muro forte

La posizione è eccellente!!! La spiaggia dell'hotel è ”non-svømming” ma con una vista chic e una bella spiaggia di tartaruga a due passi (diretta) senza ondate ...). Direttamente nel centro di Hickadouva, tutti nelle vicinanze... caffè, negozi. Amico del personale, su tutte le richieste sono sempre pronti a aiutare e necessariamente con un sorriso))

The Tamara Motels,we just remember this name for the best place in Hikkaduwa. Before we went their we heard and read lots of comments and reviews about this motel. When we come over there we realized yes everything is true. We have stay for a three days for at this hotel. Stepping through the garden, i was immediately struck by the beautiful and friendly reception area. Light, airy and very spacious...very welcoming atmosphere. The staff throughout the hotel were very professional, friendly and extremely helpful. This is a family business doing by mother son his wife and cute little baby. They always greeting and smiling to us. They are very helpful and give us the best option for everything we need. The breakfasts were amazing. It is not like other breakfast we had. Bread toast and omlet in it. Its very delicious.The location of the hotel is great. The room was very spacious and well equipped with all essentials. I have no hesitation in recommending this place to the tourists who want to go to Hikkaduwa. Will be back to this place soon..!!!

I stayed few times at this hotel of which one time 2 months. It is central and close to everything. The rooms are very comfortable and there is also a communal kitchenette. The owner gave me access to the gym for free which was ofcourse a great service. I had room number one which gave me full view to the ocean as well as the backside village which I really enjoyed. I highly recommend this place

Che bel hotel per finire il nostro soggiorno in Sri Lanka - il soggiorno è perfetto, accesso diretto alla spiaggia e il personale è gentile e pronto a aiutare in qualsiasi modo possibile. Abbiamo soggiornato in numerosi hotel nelle ultime settimane e questo è lì con il migliore di loro. Il progetto di conservazione della tartaruga è appena vicino alla porta e che è stata una visita e un'esperienza sorprendente di poter liberare tartaruga bambina nel mare. Anche vedere l'impatto della plastica sulle tortughe porta alla vita il problema che tutti sappiamo esiste. Grazie Hotel Shinigawa e grazie Sri Lanka.
