My trip to Sri Lanka was fantastic, i was there for a wedding of a friend who lives in Australia. After the wedding we had a few days to do things, we swam with the turtles in the sea at the local beach down the road from where we were staying, we also travelled to the elephant orphanage which was a fantastic time and we also went to the fort in Galle which is a lovely area. We only slept and had breakfast whilst staying at Ocean Villa Dew as we spent our time at our friends family villa during the day when not out and about. The 2 men that were running the villa were really lovely and friendly and would do anything to help you if you needed anything. They gave us bottles water when we needed it and breakfast was lovely too. The only thing i would say is that the place needs some up dating as it is not in the best condition and not looking like the pictures on this site. Would stay there again if i needed to.

As nice as the room looked it was dirty in place, ants everywhere. The hotel needed a good makeover. There was ants in the bathroom and the bathroom sink leaked, the hot water was hit and miss. The pool wasn't useable till 4 days into our holiday. The service was good.

We had a very good experience and felt like living at home.

Eins vorweg: Wir waren in der Nebensaison da. Der Aufenthalt war für unsere Familie einzigartig. Wir haben uns wie zu Hause gefühlt. Die gute Seele des Hauses, Thakshila, hat all unsere Fragen geduldig beantwortet und uns wo sie nur konnte unterstützt - Danke! Die Villa liegt direkt am Meer mit einem wunderschönen sauberen Strand. Der Pool ist genau richtig zum Toben für die Kinder. Auch der liebevoll eingerichtete Gemeinschaftsraum sowie frei wählbare Frühstückszeiten, hat ganz wesentlich zum entspannten Aufenthalt beigetragen. Für alle, die kein Problem haben in einheimischen Shops einzukaufen sowie einheimischen Imbissen und Restaurants zu essen, unserer Meinung, ein wunderbarer Ort zum Entspannen. Wir würden die Villa jederzeit wieder buchen.

Very spacious and neat place. I thought this is a normal hostel but turned out like a B&B. We have taken the whole floor and there is amazing view from the lounge. Rooms are clean and comfortable, owner is very friendly and happily accommodate our request. Will certainly consider this place again!
