Very friendly host, walking distance to lots of things.
Propreté et pleins centre ville , la nuit dans le jardin nous pouvons apercevoir des lucioles 🥰

Het verblijf was super fijn! De kamer was helemaal nieuw en super modern ingericht (onder andere met koelkast). De host was super aardig en stond altijd voor ons klaar. Daarnaast is het verblijf op nog geen 10 minuten lopen van het fort.
Ik heb niets aan te merken.
Een prachtige nieuwe grote kamer en een aardige behulpzame gastheer. Een echte aanrader
Very clean, well airconditioned and comfortable apartment with very friendly and helpful staff. Some basic amenities such as water and tea are provided. In a very quiet neighborhood in walking distance of the fort.
It is quite close to the train tracks so sometimes you hear the trains honking. If you’re a light sleeper bring earplugs but otherwise it is very quiet and peaceful.
Die Zimmer sind neu, wunderschön modern eingerichtet, es ist durchdacht ausgestattet mit allem, was man brauchen könnte. Man geht 10 Minuten zum Bahnhof und zum Fort.
The Villa Nutmeg Grove has a Perfect Location Next to the Railway Station. And only 10 minutes to the City and Clocktower. The place is safe with a Gate and has a nice garden. The Rooms are big, modern and new. The service and Host is really friendly and we could ask every question anytime to Sightseeing or which Bus we can take to places. We enjoyed out time there and can recommend a stay at This Place.
Las instalaciones son preciosas y la villa es muy nueva. Todo estaba impecable.
キングベッドのお部屋に宿泊しました。私たちがこのお部屋の初めての宿泊者だったようですが、全てが綺麗で大変快適でした。シャンプーとボディーソープ、ホットシャワー、コーヒーや紅茶とクッキー、ポット、大きな水のボトル×4本、冷蔵庫、ウェルカムドリンク、バスタオルと小さめのタオル、Wi-Fi、NetflixやYouTubeも見られるテレビ、エアコンやファンなど設備は最高で、照明にもこだわりを感じられ、もっとクラスの高いホテル並みの快適さでした。オーナーも大変親切で、到着が遅かったにもかかわらず温かく迎えてくださり、翌日チェックアウト12:00までゆっくり滞在を楽しめました。

Beautiful property, very helpful and responsive host who was kind enough to give us bottled water and drop us to the bus station. Villa was very clean and aesthetically designed. We had a very comfortable stay and hope to return soon.
The property is located near the railway station so one can hear trains at night. The road leading to the villa is also very narrow.
Great location, super close to the fort. The garden was beautiful and house was well equipped and very comfortable. My partner and I had were very happy here- highly recommended!
Gorgeous place, very large and private. Friendly and welcoming host!! Would definitely recommend!
Wundervoller Aufenthalt!
Sød vært og gode faciliteter, tæt på centrum, kun 15 min på gåben:)
Det ligger ved siden af en togstation, så det kan man desværre hører alle tidspunkter af døgnet:(
Very beautiful stay amazing garden and decoration, clean and the owner amazing person! Thank you we'll be coming back!
Nice, spacious room. Bedroom has good air conditioning. Bathroom and living room are nice and we appreciated the complimentary water, coffee, and tea. Outside the Galle Fort, but easy to reach (10 min by foot). Very nice and accommodating host.
Es ist eine Oase in Galle. Wunderschönes kleines Häuschen , mit allem was man sich vorstellt. Der Gastgeber Ruwan ist sehr freundlich, zuvorkommend und hilfsbereit. Kaffee, Tee und Wasser ist reichlich vorhanden.
房東人很好,迎賓飲料是一大杯好喝果汁。
床鋪沒有棉被,是斯里蘭卡旅館常見的一條比毛巾還薄的薄毯,但關掉空調睡就行了
Villa Nutmeg Grove was such a special find. The villa itself is cozy yet beautifully put together, with a calm, peaceful energy that makes it easy to fully unwind. It feels private and serene, but still incredibly convenient. The host’s attention to detail truly stood out. Every little facility inside the villa was thoughtfully arranged, and you can tell they genuinely care about making you feel at home. They went above and beyond to ensure everything was seamless and comfortable. It’s only a 4 to 5 minute drive to Galle Fort, with some amazing food spots nearby, so the location couldn’t be better. I would absolutely return and highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area.
Très joli emplacement dans une rue sans issue au calme et à quelques centaines de mètres du fort. Pas de hordes de touristes dans le quartier résidentiel. Le propriétaire est discret mais dispo si besoin. Nous avions tous les équipements nécessaires pour passer un agréable séjour. (Thé café eau à volonté). Certains se sont plaints des bruits des trains. On les entend peu et pour ceux qui ont du mal il y a à disposition des bouchons d’oreille. Galle étant une ville ultra touristique nous retrouvions en rentrant au logement un havre de paix.
Excelente lugar. Zona muy tranquila. La casa está muy bien equipada. El personal muy amable. La cama y las sabanas super comodas .
Nada.
Tout était super! L'accueil, le lieu! La proximité avec le fort de Galle! On peut se sentir impressionné pour arriver à la villa, mais les gens autour sont incroyablement simpa! Merci pour ce sejour qui m'a permis de me sentir bien et en sécurité!
Es una villa entera perfectamente equipada, con cocina, sala de estar, baño y habitación. Todo estaba muy limpio y la cama era muy cómoda. Estaba muy cerca del fuerte de Galle, por lo que se podía ir andando perfectamente.
Nada
Alles was geweldig! Schoon, luxe, mooi en goed werkende airco.
Wir waren für 2 Nächte in der Villa Nutmeg und waren total begeistert. Die Unterkunft ist super sauber und richtig schön eingerichtet. Wir haben uns sofort wie Zuhause gefühlt. Der Gastgeber ist sehr freundlich und gut erreichbar. Das Hupen der Züge hat uns überhaupt nicht gestört bzw. die bereitgelegten Ohrstöpsel haben super geholfen und wir konnten gut schlafen. Wir kommen gerne wieder!
駅からも近く、villaタイプでこの価格はとても安いなと感じました。清潔さはもちろんのこと、食器やポット、お菓子まで用意されていてお気遣いが行き届いていてとても嬉しかったです。ご夫婦も笑顔で対応してくださり、とても素敵な宿でした。
注意すべき点としては、宿が脇道にあり、夜は暗いため、気をつけた方がいいかと思います。
La casa es perfecta para una visita a Galle porque está muy bien equipada (hasta freidora de aire tiene). Estaba todo impecable y el señor es súper amable. La cama es cómoda.
Los trenes que pasan de madrugada a veces tocan la bocina y no dejan dormir muy bien.
Mas que un hotel es un hogar. precioso muy bien cuidado. Con muy buenos detalles y atencion a los huéspedes.
Esta fuera de galle fort. Pero caminando se llega facil.
Photos are very accurate- very comfortable, clean and pleasant space to be in. We would happily stay again. The host is kind and responsive- we especially enjoyed the delicious coconut water and guayava/strawberry juice he gave us!
Nothing!
Very close to the fort
There are tuition classes next door and could be noisy during the daytime. The railroad is pretty close and you will hear the noises when trains pass by
This property was the most perfect to stay in Galle! It was so private, super clean, had everything we needed, we also enjoyed having a bit more space and the location was perfect - 10 min walk from the bus stop and 10 min walk from town and the fort. Couldn’t recommend this place enough if you’re looking to stay in Galle. The host was also beyond lovely and helped us with anything we needed. 10/10!
Everything
This is a beautiful gated small villa with its own garden. It is incredibly clean, and the bed was super comfy! The owner is very welcoming and takes great care of you. The owner welcomed me offering a cold drink / tea, and provided some snacks and lots of water. The shower is very nice also. Only a 10 minute walk to the train station, which is very convenient.
It is next to the train line, so it can be disturbing at nighttime as the trains blow their horns several times through the night. The walk to the villa is about 5-7 minutes down a dark lane, which may not be comfortable for everyone if alone at night - but you can easily take a cheap Tuktuk ride!
Location and cleaniness
Perfect. Great location. Beautiful little house in quiet residential area. Private parking. Ideal for visiting Galle
Very cute little bungalow, felt like home. Clean, simple and comfortable. Location is nice too, you're about 10 mins walk from the fort and there are breakfast and snack options closer by. The host is very kind. I highly recommend this place.
A small improvement would be to place 1 or 2 comfortable chairs on the terrace. That way you can really enjoy your private little garden. I asked for a chair and was immediatly given one, so it worked out fine. Also bring earplugs if you are a light sleeper. Very close to the train tracks and they are noisy.
Not taken
The host was warm and welcoming the accommodation was excellent with good facilities, air con, fridge, kettle etc. There is a gate on the outside which leads to a beautiful secluded garden with lovely trees and plants. The road leading up to the property is great. You get a real feal of Sri Lanka with residential areas and a educational centre nearby. The actual name of the street is Jaill Street. We actually walked to Galle Fort from there no problem and the main station is less than 10 mins away.. the property is very quite at night and we loved everything about the place. This was Hands down the best place we stayed in Sri Lanka out of the 8 accommodations we tried. And we always went for the best we could find in every area. The host was a real gentleman which you never saw unless you needed him. Also great Internet.
Nothing. We loved it.
Everything was great. House is only 700 m away from the city centre, and it vas very clean and fully equipmented. Host was friendly and helpful.
This is a small self contained cottage - totally private. You will have small kitchen facilities, very comfortable bed, sofa and table. It is very secure as you have a padlock to lock the gate into the property. There are many little touches that he has thought of to make your stay pleasant - even providing new toothbrushes etc. Our host was exceedingly hospitable and gracious, and willing to do anything for us at any time of night or day. Although I had not included any food with the price, our host surprised us with a very big breakfast of Sri Lankan delicacies on New Year’s day. Everything is spotlessly clean, inside and out. The laneway to it is very narrow, but it’s a short walk to a very big supermarket that can sell you whatever you need. If you don’t want a big hotel and prefer completely privacy, then I can definitely recommend!
Everything. So clean and comfortable and private. Location was walking distance to the Fort. Large sitting area and kitchenette. The owners were so helpful and generous to me. I was on my own and needed steering!
The only suggestion I’d make is to make sure you have google maps to find it.
Very professional host, very nice flat. It was our best stay in Sri lanka.10/10
Brilliant host, they gave us a nice food treat before we left for the airport, lots of tea and coffee as well as juice and coconut water along the way. Really can't fault it, it was the perfect end to our month holiday in Sri Lanka! Sheets are clean and nice. Garden is beautiful too!
Very spacious and clean apartment. It is quite new so everything is in pristine condition. The host was very friendly and happy to help with anything we needed. We really enjoyed our stay here.

It felt very cosy, tooked away just outside the fort. The host was very kind and brought us nice drinks. The tea on arrival was exceptional! Nice little garden
It was very close to the train lines, which made it a little noisy at night. Expecially as the trains go throughout the night
Our stay at the nutmeg grove was very good! The house is beautiful and good equipped. The host helped us with a lot of things and was very friendly! Would recommend it!
Great location (about 700m walk to the center, excellent host (very friendly and helpful), fully equipped cottage embraced with a small, beautiful and peaceful garden.
It is a perfect villa for those who like to enjoy quiet and peaceful time. The host was super friendly, welcoming, and helpful. I enjoyed very much the complimentary snacks on arrival and breakfast in the next morning. I highly recommend everyone visiting Galle to stay at this solitude villa.
We loved everything. The location is perfect, the host was soooo nice and checked on us everyday via whatsapp. Communication was really easy. He also offered complimentary breakfast on our last day. The home was super clean, the bathroom was modern, we also had some coffees and tea at our disposal. There is a mini fridge in the kitchen. Bed was ultra confortable, with AC in the room. We loved our stay and recommand it 100%. Very good value for money !!!
Nothing at all. Everything was perfect.
This is a real hidden gem. Close enough to the city centre but yet peaceful and comfortable. It is very new so everything is in great condition and the bed sheets and pillows are incredibly comfortable. 5-10 minutes walk from local restaurants and about 20 minutes to the Fort. Great spot for those with cars as it can be locked in at night. 11 minutes walk from the train station. 10 minutes walk from KFC and large supermarket 🤣 The host is an apsoloutle gem understands space yet there to help with anything you need. Just book already !!!!
Slightly bigger sign for the gate would be great. The current one is very small and Google maps has the location back about 40 metres.
Very clean and spacious. The host was welcoming and helpful with any questions I had about the area and transport routes. The accomodation has everything you need to be comfortable. Close to train/bus and fort. Thank you for a lovely stay :)
The location is perfect, it's right in the middle of the city, so near to galle port area and the city and the beaches. The host treat me like a family, very welcome and helping me for every single things I asked or I need and give suggestions where to go The place is clean, has a nice design and feels like it is in the middle of nature even though it's located in the city center area One more thing, it's so near to the bus stand or train station, you have the option for your next destination, either by train or bus
Nothing
Seemingly as described. Homely stay, conveniently located in the heart of beautiful Galle city, short walk away from famous galle Fort. The host was really helpful and responsive. 100% recommended and will be back!
I had the pleasure of staying at Villa Nutmeg Grove and it was an outstanding experience. The villa is spotlessly clean, with every detail carefully attended to, which made our stay incredibly comfortable and relaxing. One of the villa's greatest advantages is its easy access from public transport, making our arrival and departure smooth and stress-free. The location is perfect for exploring Galle, as it provides easy access to the main attraction we wanted to visit, Galle Fort. It was so convenient to get there, allowing us to fully enjoy the historic site without any travel hassle. Additionally, Villa Nutmeg Grove is close to local markets, which was a huge benefit. Whether we needed fresh produce or wanted to explore the local shopping scene, everything was just a short walk away. In the evenings, the villa was wonderfully peaceful, providing a perfect retreat after a day of sightseeing. The host was exceptionally responsive to our requests and went above and beyond by providing us with some insider tips for visiting Galle, which greatly enhanced our experience. Overall, I 100% recommend Villa Nutmeg Grove. With its cleanliness, convenient location, peaceful ambiance, and attentive host, it truly made our trip to Galle memorable.
None at all!
Friendly staff, clean space, convinient location
Nothing really..
Highly recommended!! My wife and I stayed here in June and had a wonderful experience. Host was friendly and communicative. We were able to park at the property with ease. Had everything we needed including fresh towels, toiletries, and wifi. Room and bathroom including toilet and shower were all very clean and tidy. We especially appreciated the private entrance, as we had the whole place just to ourselves! Getting around Galle was a breeze from this location and we were able to visit the beach and Galle Fort with plenty of great food options nearby.
