Ceylon Olive Galle, hotel in Galle

Ceylon Olive is a colonial-style villa located 1.7 mi from Galle Fort and 2.5 mi from Unawatuna Beach. It offers open air bath, free parking and WiFi.

We really enjoyed our stay at Ceylon Olive. We travelled there with our 1 year old and it was a nice changeup from staying at hotels on the beach. The room is beautifully designed and spacious. The host is personable and went above and beyond to ensure we had a great stay. There's a onsite tuk-tuk, which is convenient for getting to Galle and Unawatuna.

    Galle is a city with a combination of a Dutch period fort and beach with all modern facilities. Dutch Fort is a very live well, reserved place with excellent attractions and choices. Walking over the museums and art galleries located in preserved ancient buildings is an excellent experience. fairly good nightlife available with ample choices of fine dining. within Fort, they charge higher prices due to high tourist demand. yet affordable eateries, supermarkets and facilities are available out of Fort within walking distance. Also people in Galle are very friendly, professional and helpful .

    Coming from a young Country (New Zealand circa 1840), but aware of Sri Lanka's varietal Dutch, Portuguese, British, Colonial Histories, I found the Buildings left behind by the long ago passing presence of these Nations, amongst the reality of present day life within the confines of the Galle Fort, an alluring, appealing and enticing cocktail of fortuitous personal experience, and would encourage all who might be so disposed and contemplating a visit, to definitely list Galle as a Priority, Not to be Missed...

    Outstanding!!! I am so happy to have found this beautiful hotel! The location is ideal for going to both the Fort and Unawatuna with very cheap tuk-tuks, but in a very peaceful location. Indika and Lahiru are amazing! They were very attentive and kind and cooked our best meal in Sri Lanka. Beautiful rooms and fantastic pool. I highly recommend staying here! (We were going to stay at another hotel in the Fort, but they canceled last minute and I am so glad they did. This is a much better location with the best service.)

    The location was fantastic for this lovely hotel. We were right inside the Fort and steps to the cute little streets of old Fort Galle. The breakfast was amazing- a choice of a western breakfast together with a huge bowl of fresh fruit or a Sri Lankan breakfast plus the fruit. For the price the place is fantastic. We would recommend booking the larger room as the smaller ones are very small. The wifi is OK but spotty at times. Overall we would highly recommend this lovely hotel.

    Couldn't recommend enough! Naren and his team did a wonderful job of looking after us. The rooms are beautifully designed with extremely comfortable beds. There are only four rooms so it's a very personal service. Halcyon is located between Unawatuna Beach and Galle Fort with easy access by tuk tuk. The food is delicious and we really enjoyed our time in the kitchen learning about Sri Lankan cooking methods. Highly recommend.

    Indika is a passionate owner and manager, who serves his customers with great care in this, his personally own created, guesthouse. This is not a chic boutique hotel, but a small, simple and personal ‘home’, coming as a reasonably low cost, perfect for backpackers who would enjoy basically ‘sleeping on top of the waves’. You will not be closer to the beautiful waters of Sri Lanka. Food, service, WiFi, beds are excellent!

    - The place is a few minutes of drive (5 mins) away from Galle, one of the main cities in the south side of Sri Lanka - 5-10 minutes drive to beautiful Unawatuna beach. - A brand new place. Therefore, all the items of furniture are pretty new. - The place is so comfortable and safe. - Never experienced any noise even though the place is in a residential area.

    It is really central, but quiet, and inside the fort. If you are staying one night in Galle, this is so far the best hotel we have seen. The employees are super nice, and the food they serve is typical from Sri Lanka, but you also have an option for continental breakfast if you want. The room was spacious, and it was nice to wake with monkeys on the balcony.
