Awesome hosts; wonderful home
I have been amazed by the warmth and generosity of our hosts Mark and Lakshari. Their home is incredible, the bed SO comfortable and the sheets luxurious! Marks curry will take some beating...it was awesome!! The house is beautiful and a 15 minute walk to the fort in a very peaceful area, so a good location if you are trying to find something better value than within the fort. If you are thinking about booking....just do it. You won't regret it!!

About the neighborhood
Galle is a city on the southwest coast of Sri Lanka. It’s known for Galle Fort, the fortified old city founded by Portuguese colonists in the 16th century. Stone sea walls, expanded by the Dutch, encircle car-free streets with architecture reflecting Portuguese, Dutch and British rule. Notable buildings include the 18th-century Dutch Reformed Church. Galle Lighthouse stands on the fort’s southeast tip.
