The perfect stay on the beach
Pros:

Booked this property for a 1 night stay very last minute. Couldn’t believe our luck. Had the most comfortable bed in all of our travels around Sri Lanka. The property is right on the water and so easy to walk out front for a dip. Pool was lovely. Book the ocean view rooms, you won’t regret it.

Cons:

Massage was terrible

Home away from home.
Pros:

The property is beautifully designed, an ideal beach home! The bed is incredibly comfy and so was the baby crib that was well prepared to our baby's comfort. Service is tailored made. Staff is very attentive. We had a very nice private time with anything available to our request. It felt like being at home with a full-on service team!

Cons:

No walking distance to any happening or shops. Tuktuk is needed for every trip.

Pros:

Stunning villa with great architecture ! The villa has a great location with easy access to the beach and just 10 mins away from Galle fort.. The staff were very accommodating and friendly, the villa was very clean and of exceptional standard. In addition the food was amazing, we had Sri Lankan food as well as more Western cuisines and it was probably the best food I had during my trip to Sri Lanka. Most importantly the rooms were spacious and clean and had great views overlooking the beach . Really enjoyed my stay at Candella House.
