What was once the residence of the Head Chieftain of Galle has been restored to a pristine condition and offers views on all sides on lush greenery. The rooms have beautiful volumes with natural light openings and connections with the lawn on one side and the inner pond on the other. Furniture and design are artfully true to the historical character of the site. Magnificent indoor pond surrounded by the unique inwards facing tiled roof. Service is impeccable from Mr Dinesh at the reception to Chandrakumar at dinner and Mr Lishant for breakfast. Glorious menu doing justice to local ingredients and wines spanning from New Zealand to France. The swimming pool surrounded by flowers and canopy is the perfect chilling spot prior to a happy hour centred around the local spirits. An unmistakable success by Teardrop!

Beautiful hotel, amazing staff - an absolute pleasure from beginning to end Staff were fantastic from the second I booked with their communication right until I left. Had issues with my luggage being lost by the airline & the 2 managers and reception staff chased them constantly for me until I got my luggage literally minutes before I left for my next hotel (I only stayed here 1 night). I highly recommend this as an airport hotel as it is only 15 minutes from Colombo airport & a great first or last night option. Its so gorgeous & green & peaceful & the hotel organised a cute boat trip for my 1 day there. I will come back anytime I come to Sri Lanka for sure. Thank you 🙏🏾

Great location close to the airport. So it seems most people stay here for only 1-2 nights either at the start or end of their holiday (we stayed here at the start and end). The food is excellent (although expensive for Sri Lanka) and the breakfast is superb. There is a lovely pool in a jungle setting. We played croquet and cricket in their garden which was a lot of fun before dinner. The staff arranged for our daughter (age 9) to make a paper lantern with the assistance of two members of staff, which was a lovely touch and means she now has a meaningful souvenir.

Beautiful boutique hotel close to the airport (but you’d never know). They had a fairly extensive menu considering this is not a big property and it was delicious. The staff were exceptional and we loved our stay of three nights here. They had complimentary afternoon tea and drinks every afternoon which was a fabulous touch, which you took on the veranda. The kids played croquet on the lawn while we’d have a G&T and then return for a board game with us. Couldn’t have been more perfect.

Location was perfect for the last two days of our 2 week long trip in Sri Lanka. A great place to chill and do yoga, have exceptional massages, eat the most delicious food before your long flight home. There is nothing much to see in the very local area so it really is a place to 'land' and settle either when you arrive in Colombo Airport or are leaving from it.
