Ginger Palm Villa

Fantastisch! De ligging is super, geweldige kamer. Het voelde voor ons of wij een hele villa ter beschikking hadden. Ontbijt buitengewoon heerlijk. Personeel staat altijd voor je klaar (en Ginger de lieve hond) Het zwembad is ook heerlijk.. Wij hebben echt een fantastisch verblijf gehad.

Tout ! C’est tout simplement une adresse incontournable ! La villa en elle même est très belle, chambre confortable, piscine superbe et personnel adorable. Petit déjeuner et repas excellents.

Accomodation is incredible. Could have stayed multiple weeks. The chef is outstanding. The town of Hiriketiya is amazing

Alt, veldig fint hus, beliggenhet og fasiliteter

Sandeep and his team took excellent care of us during our stay, making sure we had everything we needed, from taking us down Dickwella beach to swim with the sea turtles, to arranging transport for us to the airport when it was time to leave. The location was perfect, a short walk to the beach with a few monkey sightings along the way. We extended our stay as we didn't want to leave! We can't wait to visit again.

Great location, very nice pool. Loved the room and the staff were lovely!

It was amazing! We loved every second.

Great location, very close to Hiri beach. Amazing staff, they were so friendly and arranged us tuk tuks and gave tips for our stay. Bed very comfy, great bathroom. The brekkie was lovely!

Was a bit noisy at night but can’t be helped!

We could not name a single fault with our stay at Ginger Palm. Stunning, personal, exceptional service, great location. We dream of returning for years to come. Thank you Sandeep and your wonderful team.

Great property. A 4 bedroom villa which sometimes rented out as a whole, or to individuals. Pool is massive, breakfast is amazing, the best placed we stayed in Sri Lanka. Unfortunately it was only a one night stay for us. Good location with flat walk to the beach. We’ll be back.

You’ll be too relaxed and forget to get out and explore the local area.

Absolut fantastisch. Hier stimmt wirklich alles. Eine absolute Empfehlung! Tolle und sehr hilfsbereite Mitarbeiter, leckeres Essen und eine wunderschöne Unterkunft.

Very helpful staff, great location. Good sized rooms and nicely furnished.

Incredible place to stay, so beautiful. The staff were so friendly and helpful. We loved the egg hoppers at breakfast, plenty of choice and can have dinner and lunch there too if you wish. Very well located for restaurants and the beach. Would recommend the turtle trip locally with Saronga, his friend runs a turtle egg conservation project locally and we got to snorkel with turtles who live in the bay - which is great to see and support. Sad to leave and keen to come back!

We had an amazing stay at Ginger Palm Villa. It is a beautiful accommodation, very calm and peaceful in the center of Hiriketiya. You can walk everywhere which is very convenient. The staff was lovely and helpful.

Fab location, amazing villa with huge pool. Breakfast was to die for (pre-order the egg hoppers). Very friendly and helpful staff. Super clean and very comfortable spacious room.

Issue during our stay with no hot water in our room, although this didn't inconvenience us and the staff were very accommodating.

This was one of the nicest places we have ever stayed in. The villa is gorgeous, it’s so beautifully maintained, the food was incredible, the staff so lovely. Bed super comfortable, very nice refreshing pool. The location is perfect just down from the main beach, lots of good food options closeby. Would absolutely recommend and return here. Thanks guys!

The staff were absolutely fantastic, they were there for all your needs, so welcoming and friendly - they took us to swim with turtles and arranged everything to ensure it was smooth for us The rooms are exceptionally clean with super comfortable beds - we had the best nights sleep there The food in the villa was also amazing, with the choice of different breakfasts every morning if you wanted to change it up as well as lunch and dinners The villa is in an amazing location just a walk away from everything which made our stay super easy Can’t thank the staff the villa enough - they made our stay the best it could’ve been

Nothing!

Ein kleiner Hinweis: Am Abend kann es durch die zentrale Lage etwas lebhafter sein, und die Zimmer sind etwas hellhörig. Wer einen sehr leichten Schlaf hat, sollte eventuell Ohrstöpsel einplanen. Insgesamt jedoch ein tolles Hotel mit großartigem Service und einem hervorragenden Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis. Wir würden jederzeit wiederkommen.

Beautiful villa - perfect if you have children of any age. Staff were very friendly. Couldn’t fault a single thing.

Had an amazing stay at Ginger Palm Villa. The villa is very relaxing, comfortable and clean. The staff are extremely professional and make sure you have everything you need. The food is also amazing - the chef is very talented. Huge thank you to Lakmal for looking after us so well and Suranga for taking us out to see turtles. We would love to return and cannot recommend this place enough

Can't fault anything with Ginger Palm Villa

Alles! Het personeel is zo vriendelijk! Ze hebben voor mijn vriend ook nog een verjaardagtaartje voorzien met kaarsjes + ballonnen opgehangen. Ik was tijdens mijn verblijf erg ziek (herstellende van dengue) dus kan beamen dat dit een heeeeeeerlijk bed was! Ook het zwembad, waar je enorm kan genieten van de rust, werd door mijn vriend als zalig beoordeeld! De kamers zijn prachtig, wij vonden het zijn geld waard! Ook toen we nog even moesten wachten op ons volgende hotel, mochten we beneden in de tv kamer nog enkele uurtjes rusten.

Staff were wonderful, room was spacious and spotless and great amenities. Loved the pool, location and breakfast options

Outstanding stay. One of the most beautiful stays of our lives. Every detail was extremely well thought-out. Beautifully decorated, practical rooms, super friendly staff, a beautiful pool.. honestly can’t fault this place. Just wish we stayed longer.

Ginger Palm Villa is amazing - on top of being in a great location and a beautiful property, the staff are what really made our trip so special! The rooms are lovely - very clean and provide everything you need (insect repellent / after sun). Breakfast / the food is delicious! All made fresh! Would recommend the French Toast! We would recommend a turtle / snorkelling trip with the staff. They took us to a beach and located the turtles for us to see - we had previously tried at Mirissa but didn’t have much luck and going with the Ginger Palm staff was great! If you want to get involved in the cricket that the staff play daily - it is very fun to be involved with. They’re the nicest and happiest people! Of course you don’t have to but we did and it was a highlight! Thanks Sandeep & all The Ginger Palm staff! Jack & Georgie

We had an amazing stay at Ginger Palm Villa, I can't recommend it enough. It was a quick four minute walk to the beach but secluded and quietly tucked away which was a nice change of pace. The staff and team were so friendly and helpful, we couldn't have asked for anything else. The rooms are very cute and the pool was very nice. Breakfast was also delicious. Would love to come back.

Where to start – we were blown away immediately by how beautiful the property is – the pictures represent it well but don’t do it justice. The staff were amazing. We didn’t realise that when you take the whole villa, you get the whole stuff looking after you – we thought we were just renting a space. The manager and staff were all so kind and helpful-they couldn’t do enough for us arranging activities and providing lovely food as required. Five star in every single way! We loved it- especially Ginger the resident puppy.

Nothing.

Amazing. The place was absolute luxury. Impeccable standard. But the guys that worked there were even more incredible. Sandeep and the team looked after us so well. Their hospitality knew no bounds. Even staying after their shits at night to make sure we got back safely from our adventures. They really cared. They took us to the only ethical turtle sanctuary on the south coast They organised any trips that we wanted to do, checking availability, weather forecast and if it was a worthy day to do the particular activity (for example if elephants had been spotted at the safari then it was a good day to go) Sandeep even taught me surfing in his time off. Even though Sri Lanka is an exceptionally friendly place this level of service and friendship was above and beyond any expectation. Sincere thanks to everyone at the Ginger Palm 🙏

Amazing staff, beautiful vila, extremely clean, comfortable bed and pillows. Special thanks to Sandeep and the team.

It is good to know that the triple room is on the road side. If your are sensetiv to noise it will wake you at night from Tok Tok, motorbikes, dogs.

My husband and I have traveled a lot over the years, and this was hands down the best hotel experience we’ve ever had. We loved absolutely everything about this place and can’t wait to come back. The staff were all so friendly, kind, and helpful, it really made our stay feel extra special. The food was incredible; everything we ate was amazing, and it was by far the best food we had in Sri Lanka. The location is perfect, just a couple of minutes walk to Hiriketiya Beach, but the villa itself feels very private and peaceful. With only a few rooms, it’s like having your own little slice of paradise. The facilities were great, everything was exceptionally clean and well-designed. We couldn’t recommend it more!

Ginger Palm Villa was our favourite stay in Sri Lanka after visiting a few different areas. Although it’s not on the beachfront it’s a 5 minute stroll to get onto Hiriketiya beach and a short TukTuk to neighbouring Dikwella. We thought the villa was in a great location as lots to do on the doorstep but still very quiet and private. One of the staff from the hotel met us at turtle beach on his day off where he helps hatch turtles. He had arranged snorkels for us so we got to see many fish and even swam with wild turtles which was just amazing! We couldn’t fault anything about our stay, it was simply amazing. The villa had everything you need from a games room, pool floats, beach towels, mosquito repellent and much needed after sun! The food was the best we had anywhere in Sri Lanka and staff are some of the nicest people we have ever met, they really couldn’t do enough to help us enjoy our stay. The manager Sandeep arranged a taxi to our next hotel for us with Samitha and he was by far the best and safest driver we had in Sri Lanka, he took us on the coast road and took us to some beautiful places on the way. We would highly recommended to anyone and we really hope to come back one day!

That we didn’t stay longer!

I mean it when I say that this may be my favourite hotel I’ve ever stayed in. Mainly because it doesn’t really feel like a hotel - more like a gorgeous personal space with incredible staff on hand to help with whatever you need. My girlfriend and I didn’t want to leave. The food was a particular highlight - essentially anything you pick off the menu, you’ll love. The beach is less than a 10 minute walk away if that. I wish I could go back, it really is special.

GPV was amazing. Super clean, amazing breakfast, lovely pool and great location 5 min walk to Hiri beach. Not to mention the staff who were incredible too.. so much so we wanted to extend our stay. Thank you guys, GPV and Hiri were the highlight of our Sri Lanka trip

The whole set up here is insane and genuinely the nicest staff we had looking after us out of the 7 places we stayed in Sri Lanka. Couldn’t recommend staying here high enough

We absolutely loved our stay here. Everything was perfect. The hotel is small and therefore quite calm, even though it is in the middle of Hiriketiya. The room, the bed and the other facilities were great. The staff was amazing and always there to help. The food was great too. Breakfast every morning was a treat (and lots of choices) and the lunch and dinner options are really good too. We really felt like home and, even after booking a few additional nights, we were super sad to leave. Without a doubt our favourite stay in Sri Lanka and maybe even my favourite stay anywhere ever. We recommend this place to everyone!!

Nothing!

The food was incredible - some of the best meals we had in Sri Lanka. Likewise, the staff were attentive and really looked after the property.

Location couldn’t be better as can walk to the beach and lovely bars and restaurants. But really quiet and chilled too. Rooms spotless and the staff are just fantastic. The food at the villa not to be missed …we had an evening meal and it couldn’t have been better. Really recommend as privacy and quiet of a villa but completely looked after like a hotel with food and service. Want beach which is 5 mins walk away is incredible.

The property is situated off the main road about 5mins walk to the stunning hiriketiya beach. Rented as a whole villa to groups and families in the on season they do let out rooms individually on the off season. We fell in love immediately with the layout of the villa; you’re welcomed with a generous outdoor seating area perfect for afternoon tea/ coffee/ beer (depending on your plans for the evening) which then ushers you into the biggest pool we’ve seen so far on our trip! The rooms themselves are light, well sized, exceptionally clean and built with quality furnishings; guaranteed a comfy nights sleep here. And this is all without mentioning the thing that really makes ginger palm villa the best place to stay in Sri Lanka: the staff. Suranaga will take you to Dickwella beach and ensure you meet some turtles in the wild, Nilantha is always around to make your stay as comfortable and easy going as possible with excellent service and his charming smile, Sandeep who heads up the place is a wealth of local knowledge and all round amazing guy, not to mention the chef who cooks food so good we ended up ignoring the majority of nearby restaurants! These are just a few of the people who have made it very difficult to leave this place but no doubt we will be back very soon with the friends and family we’ll be raving to about this gem we found in Hiriketiya.

This is a beautiful place in Hiriketiya- the property is homely, clean, comfortable and very tastefully designed. The rooms are spacious and comfortable as are all of the common areas. The food is absolutely delicious and the staff deserve a special mention- they were so welcoming, friendly and hospitable during our stay. Best place to stay in Hiriketiya!
