But the biggest thanks go to the owner, who was very friendly, smiling and helped us with everything and accommodated us. The outdoor seating is also worth mentioning, which was very pleasant. The whole place has a magical atmosphere led by its owner and her family. I highly recommend it to everyone and I hope we will come back soon!

Set a few steps from Mahamodara Beach and 2.3 km from Galle International Cricket Stadium in the centre of Galle, The Tide's Tale offers accommodation with free WiFi and free private parking. The property was built in 2022 and features air-conditioned accommodation with a terrace. The property is non-smoking and is situated 2.8 km from Dutch Church Galle. This is hospitality akin to a five star resort. We booked last minute due to our original accommodations having been flooded due to heavy rains. Mr. Ajith waited up for us late at night, welcomed us into his home so we can have a late dinner, and brought us lemon juice straight from his lemon tree. He prepared a delicious multi-course breakfast, helped us with our bags, and communicated with our tuk tuk driver so they knew where we were going. We really felt so special being a guest at the Tide’s Tale and wished we could have stayed longer. The room is simple, but exceptionally clean. Plus the bed was extremely comfortable. Thank you for your hospitality, Mr. Ajith. You’ve warmed our hearts!

At the homestay, all units come with a desk. With a private bathroom equipped with a bidet and free toiletries, units at the homestay also have free WiFi, while some rooms come with a terrace. At the homestay, the units come with bed linen and towels. We had a wonderful stay at Villa Ema — one of the most beautiful places we stayed at during our trip through Sri Lanka. It’s a true oasis of peace where the only sounds you hear are birds chirping — absolutely fantastic! The owners and staff were incredibly friendly and easy to reach via WhatsApp. They were always helpful and attentive. We highly recommend this place to anyone travelling to Sri Lanka and looking for a stay in the Galle area!

At the homestay, units are equipped with a desk. A balcony with an outdoor dining area and sea views is offered in all units. All units feature a private bathroom with a shower and slippers.

At the homestay, the family-friendly restaurant is open for dinner, lunch and high tea and specialises in local cuisine. You get a stunning Sea view and a wide open balcony that you could relax and enjoy some drinks. They share the same beach with Radisson Blue so, the security is great too. Fireworks at night by the Luuma beach restaurant is a bonus. The host is super welcoming and you will love her immediately. It feels like she wants to offer her best possible services. We had to catch a train at early 7 and she, even in the dazzling early hours, managed a TukTuk for us standing in the rain. Even a good friend wouldn’t do that for you at 6 in the morning.
