The House

Activities

The Beach

Since you are practically on the beach front it is well worth spending some time there, whether you just want to go for strolls, sunbathe & relax, splash around in the ocean or go for some kayaking or surfing, the choice is up to you.

The Pool

While staying here you definitely have to make the most of the pool. Since its 10m long its really good for getting in some decent swimming, or you can just grab a few drinks and laze around in its cool waters. Perfect!

Explore the local area

Galle Lighthouse, Galle Fort, Galle, Sri Lanka

The south coast of Sri Lanka offers something for anyone:

Wander the UNESCO listed Galle Fort, best early in the morning or late afternoon when it’s cool. Go to the town and check out a sari shop or get a shave and haircut. Head to off to Dewata beach and learn to surf and while you are there try a short eat at Sahana. Take a tuk tuk up to Hikkaduwa to see/feed the turtles on the beach.

Jump on a bike and ride a couple of kilometres to ‘water for elephants’, or a river trip on the Gin Ganga. Or my ultimate favourite – go to Udawalawe to see elephants or down to Yala for the leopards.
