Sehr schick, neuwertig, geschmackvoll. Wir hatten das Gefühl gleichzeitig draußen und drinnen zu sein, weil das Raumkonzept offen und mit vielen Pflanzen gestaltet wurde. Es sieht hervorragend aus. Viele nette Mitarbeiter. Das Begrüßungsgetränk und Erfrischungstuch fanden wir toll!
Das Hotel liegt etwas außerhalb. Das wäre kein Problem gewesen, da wir dachten, das Hotel wäre an einem Strand mit Beachclub gelegen. Hatten uns auf Cocktails im Sonnenuntergang gefreut. Laut Fotos und Bewertungen war dies irreführend für uns. Es wird der gesamte Strandbereich mit Beachbar renoviert. Kein Zugang! Das fanden wir sehr schade und wären gerne darüber informiert worden. Wenn der Strandbereich fertig renoviert ist, ist sicher alles ganz wunderbar! Die Straße zum Strand ist aber gefährlich und sehr stark befahren.

Hotel nuovissimo con arredamento molto ricercato, stanze spaziose e pulitissime. Cena molto buona.
Il beach club era chiuso per restauro.

9.0
The hotel and the room were beautiful with great facilities including a pool, wellness room and beach club just across the road where you could enjoy breakfast by the waves. The staff were exceptionally helpful and accommodating.
The location is about a 10 minute tuktuk ride from the old town. However, the hotel staff were really helpful in organising tuktuks for us when we asked for drop offs/pick ups.
2.0
Nothing. Property is not worth staying in. Avoid at all cost.
Flies , spider , cockroaches and lizards all over in the room and bathroom, uncomfortable bed, view from balcony was neighbours toilet (advertised as garden view) , charged 169 US dollars without breakfast. It is not even one star accommodation. Resturant is across the road ( 70 meters away) and not in same building. Worst food you can have and not sure what was the issue but police had raided and staff was questioned while we were there.

Decoración bonita y limpio. Personal muy amable
Estábamos en la planta de arriba con vistas a la ciudad y había ruidos desde primera hora de la mañana. No recomendamos comer en el lounge de la playa ya que es caro para lo que es. Hay muy buenas opciones en el pueblo.
9.0
Location to the beach and interior at the property is amazing. Duty manager, Hirantha and luggage boy were super friendly and gave us a great service. They were flexible and supportive.
Waiting time for food at the cafe and quality of the food could be better.

L’établissement est rempli de charme, tout est propre et très joliment décoré ! La salle de bain est très spacieuse et équipée ! Le personnel est charmant et aux petits soins. De plus ils proposent des massages excellents et pas très chers. Le restaurant propose des couches du soleil sur la mer somptueux !
Le restaurant, malgré sa vue imprenable et son personnel charmant propose des repas assez basics
9.0
The lay out and design of the property is amazing .
Rooms bathroom beds.
To have breakfast across the busy beach road is not a good option many cars and rain.
They charged us 500 ,- roepi for 1 plastic bottle of still water.
Personal speaks very little or no English .
No connection with personal as everything is digital .
8.0
It's a good hotel, clean, service ok.
The manager promised to prepare breakfast so we can take away with us as we are checking out early in the morning,but he didn't show up and couldn't be reached by phone, I didn't understand what he is hiding for? $20 is worth of cheating?
9.0
Nice check-in experience. Hotel is an overall very beautiful and polished building - rooms were clean, great interior design.
Private beach was not clean. Breakfast is supposed to start at 7:30 - we had to wait approx. 50 minutes for our food as it was not ready yet.
10.0
Literally everything!! The staff was so friendly they welcomed us so warmly they offered welcome drinks, upgraded our room and gave us a FREE late check out as our flight was very late!
Nothing it was the perfect stay
10.0
Everything was great and luxe. The concept, decor, comfort, food, staff - everything was perfect.
We loved especially the boutique design concept and the beach side breakfast.
This was our last night in Sri Lanka, and it was the perfect ending to a great trip.
Nothing at all
10.0
A very stylish and welcoming hotel with really helpful and attentive staff. Madusha, Hirantha and the team could not have been more helpful. Nice large room and a good sized swimming pool. The beach club restaurant and beach are beautifully set out. Overall, a great place to stay for a few days.
The hotel is a short Tuk Tuk ride from the Fort - so a bit out of the centre (suited us fine). Crossing the road to the Beach Club requires caution!
7.0
The room, hotel and pool are lovely, stylish and comfortable.
Good massage.
The restaurant and breakfast arrangements.
You have to pre order your breakfast which is not an issue. However the restaurant which is across the road still ask you what you want upon arrival, you mention your pre order and then you get something completely different.
We requested our pot of tea at the beginning of breakfast on the second say as it had come at the end with the toast....
We had to ask for it 4 times and it still came towards the end - it was sitting brewed behind the bar area. The reasonable sized pot was a third full with just enough tea for one cup each 🤣.
This probably complemented the 3 chips (seriously) which formed part of the English breakfast.
What was super puzzling was that the bar area has empty wine and spirit bottles on display yet they don't serve alcohol (which is ok just weird).
There really isn't anywhere else to eat at this location.
Staff were very friendly but in truth didn't really seem to know what they were doing.
10.0
Well designed and quiet property. Very spacious rooms and bathrooms. Nice restaurant next to the beach about 2 minutes walk from property. The owners have taken great care in the decor, maintenance and artefacts in the property
8.0
Hotelul, designul interior, curatenia, mancarea foarte buna. Proprietarul este o persoana educata, intelegatoare, ne-a explicat ca se afla la inceput si va imbunatati tot ceea ce i-am semnalat ca fiind in neregula.
Pentru ca s-a dorit ca restaurantul sa fie pe plaja, trebuie traversata o strada destul de circulata. Pentru prepararea mancarii se asteapta mult, dar totul vine proaspat gatit. Vinul nu este o optiune la cina pentru ca hotelul nu are inca licenta necesara. Am cerut perne mai subtiri si am primit o perna identica cu cea pe care deja o aveam 😂. Si asta pentru ca nu vor sa spuna “nu”.

It’s nice and clean
Don’t opt for vegetarian breakfast they just have a sandwich to offer .. no telephones for room service
4.0
Spacious room in the upgrade offered to us.
Located in a poky little side street, with virtually no garden and difficult to find. The small swimming pool located inside the property is not likely to be used by many guests. The hotel had no liquor licence and the staff could not be open to us about it. When we asked , they said they could not provide wine but have beer in the restaurant, but when we went there for dinner in the evening, with a guest, they produced just one bottle of beer! Food service was erratic, although some of the dishes were tasty. Openness to clients was sadly lacking.
The restaurant by the beach is nicely located but you have to cross the main Galle - Colombo road to get there!
Web prices hugely overblown. Just about the right price with the 50% discount offered through the Booking.com promotion.

Das Hotel ist ganz neu und super schön. Unser Zimmer war sehr groß und sauber. Wir wurden vom Hotelmanager Rashmika empfangen und fühlten uns direkt super wohl. Er gab uns eine Erfrischungstuch und einen Willkommensdrink. Wir waren überrascht über die große Auswahl und die gute Qualität des Abendessens im Restaurant (wo man auch zum Frühstück hingeht). Dieses liegt direkt am Strand und wir konnten zum Abendessen den Sonnenuntergang genießen. Einfach traumhaft! Wir kommen gerne wieder! :-)
Das Hotel liegt 20 Minuten zu Fuß oder 5 Minuten mit dem Tuktuk vom Galle Fort entfernt, was für uns aber eher positiv war, da die Umgebung dadurch für sri-lankische Verhältnisse sehr ruhig war.

My family and I stayed at Taavetti villa in June 2023. Well, our stay was fabulous. We really enjoyed the pool in the property and the restaurant at the beach. The room very spacious with a nice big bathroom area with antique finishing
A big thanks to : Vinod kumar, Shamika, Priyantha and not to forget the ever helpful Tharinda Lakmal. You are a star 💫. Thank you all for making our holiday a memorable one.
I will highly recommend the property and will definitely come back.

Excellent breakfast, rooms and pool and hospitality was outstanding! Would come back here again in a heartbeat. Got the chance to see so much wildlife in their natural habitat and even got the chance to set some baby turtles (they rescue to keep away from the poachers or excessive tourists) back into the ocean at night when it's safe! Overall an extraordinary stay. Shamika the manager was so lovely and organized everything for us at an instant and made our stay so amazing, even when we made impromptu plans!! We would love to come back again and again!
Literally nothing! Everything was outstanding !
