Direkt am Meer gelegene, wunderschöne Villa mit zwei Gäste,zimmern und unheimlich charmanten, professionellen Personal.
Pros:

In dieser wunderschönen gestalteten, neuen Villa gibt es nur zwei Gästezimmer. Das liebenswerte, professionelle tolle Team kümmert sich wirklich um jedes Anliegen und stellt sicher, dass es den Gästen an nichts fehlt. Der Blick vom Bett aufs Meer ist wunderschön.

Cons:

Die Rückseite des Hauses grenzt direkt an eine sehr viel befahrene Strasse. Da die Senegalesen sehr oft ihre Hupe betätigen, ist vor allem am Morgen ab 5:00 Uhr der Lärm relativ stark.

Fantastic
Pros:

The view, the villa, and the private pool were all fantastic. Everything was well maintained, and we had a wonderful stay.

Cons:

A small suggestion would be to install a TV inside the bedroom. It would provide guests with more privacy and personal space while watching TV.

Excellent place, will gladly stay again!
Pros:

The property is even better than described!
Room was very well furnished and the bathroom was comparable to 5 star hotels.
Service was excellent.
Breakfast was superb and they customized to our needs.
Beach is right outside and the sand was soft too.

Cons:

Exclusive Location also meant a bit distant from other dining options. It's also 20 min from the old town, so just plan around that.

Pros:

It’s a very thoughtful and coozy place. Saman gave us a feeling that made us feel like home. He’s very thoughtful and has rich experience in the industry. Chaminda was very witty, the atmosphere was always pleasant and relaxed when he’s around. When we arrived Renuka made a perfect massage for me, totally get away the tiredness during the way there. Last but not least, definitely need to thanks the chef Pasindu, he cooked the best meal I had in Sri Lanka.
Wish you guys and the hotel go better and better!

AMAZING STAY
Pros:

The property was absolutely beautiful, with stunning ocean views and a serene atmosphere. The staff were exceptional—warm, attentive, and genuinely committed to excellent hospitality. Located just 8 km from Galle Fort and right by the sea, it’s the perfect destination for a peaceful family getaway.

The in-room plunge pool was a highlight, offering a refreshing and relaxing way to unwind after a day of exploring. Breakfast was delightful, with a great selection and wonderful flavors.

A special thank you to Chaminda, Udesh, and Adeesha for going above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed. The villa manager was also incredibly helpful and accommodating.

We had a fantastic stay and would absolutely love to return!

Cons:

The villa is by the colombo Galle main road and if you are there during the day you can hear the noise from vehicles but if you are out front by the Plunge pool or garden area.. you can hear much. But the sound of the waves from the ocean make up for the very little noise from the traffic.

I loved everything about my stay there and would definitely visit again.
Pros:

The privacy, peaceful atmosphere, beautiful surroundings, delicious food, and exceptional hospitality made the stay truly enjoyable. The staff and manager, Saman, were incredibly welcoming and attentive. We visited for a birthday stay, and they even prepared a cake for us, which was a very thoughtful touch. The property also has convenient access to the main road and is located close to Galle Fort, making it easy to get around.

Cons:

Honestly, there was nothing I disliked about the stay.

Pros:

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Oruva Beachside Villa, Galle, Sri Lanka and it was truly an unforgettable experience from start to finish.

From the moment I arrived, the staff made me feel genuinely welcomed. What stood out most was the consistent kindness and attentiveness of every team member; their dedication to guest satisfaction was evident in every interaction.

One of the absolute highlights of my stay was the private pool attached to my villa. Having a personal pool offers complete privacy and relaxation. The pool area was beautifully maintained and added a luxurious touch that made the stay feel extra special.

A special mention goes to the talented chef, whose culinary expertise truly enhanced the entire experience. You can feel the passion and creativity in every bite. The flavors were perfectly balanced, ingredients were fresh and high quality, and the attention to detail was remarkable. The chef even took the time to greet guests and ensure everyone was enjoying their meals, which added a personal and thoughtful touch.

Overall, my stay at Oruva Beachside Villa, Galle, Sri Lanka exceeded all expectations. With its outstanding staff, luxurious comfort, and absolutely delicious food crafted by a gifted chef, it’s a destination I would highly recommend to anyone seeking both relaxation and world-class hospitality. I’m already looking forward to my next visit!

Wunderbares, stilvolles Hotel in zentraler Lage direkt an der Küste
Pros:

Oruva Beachside Villa ist ein wundervoll renoviertes, kleines Hotel in charmantem Stil mit Gemeinschaftslounge und einer herrlichen Terrasse mit Garten. Es befindet sich in zentraler Lage mit direktem Zugang zum Sandstrand.
Das Auto kann auf einem Parkplatz direkt bei der Villa sicher geparkt werden.
Die zwei geschmackvoll eingerichteten Zimmer verfügen über bequeme Doppelbetten und saubere Badezimmer mit begehbarer Dusche. Wir hatten im Übergang zur Terrasse und dem Garten einen eigenen Whirlpool mit Sichtschutz. Das Personal ist ausgesprochen freundlich, sehr zuvorkommend und steht 24 Stunden zur Verfügung. Wir bekamen schon zur Begrüßung einen kulinarischen Willkommensgruß kredenzt, und am Nachmittag gab es Kaffee oder Tee mit frisch zubereiteten Kuchenstücken. Im Wohnbereich steht ein Kühlschrank mit Getränken und eine gute Kaffeemaschine zur ständigen Verfügung. Auch das Frühstück in vielfachen Variationen war hervorragend und reichhaltig.
Wir können dieses charmante Hotel weiterempfehlen und kommen sehr gerne wieder.

Cons:

Der Whirlpool war leider unbeheizt.

Goed verblijf met eigen dompelbad!
Pros:

Fijn verblijf aan het strand. Heerlijk ontbijt en heerlijk diner gehad. Mooie kamer en netjes!

Cons:

Dat het aan een drukke weg lag.

In de kamer heb je daar niet al te veel last van. Ook omrekenkoers naar USD was niet echt netjes.
