From the moment we arrived we felt incredibly lucky to have chosen this beautiful hotel. The staff are warm and friendly and welcoming. The garden room we stayed in was amazing and we saw monkeys jumping across the roof outside the windows which was incredible. The room was beautiful and we loved the large veranda. Meals were delicious and served at a shared dining table and cooked to order. The fish and chips I had was delicious and the Sri Lankan breakfast choices also incredibly tasty. An easy walk onto the ramparts to see the sea and to enjoy the fort to its fullest. I have only praise for this beautiful hotel.

Un lieu hors du temps dans cette magnifique demeure ou sobriété rime avec élégance et quietude .Une famille de singes étaient au rendez vous et nous ont rendu visite,ainsi qun écureuil
En revanche,il serait judicieux de disposer dans la chambre d'un mini réfrigérateur afin de garder les boissons fraiches

We spent two nights here as part of our tour of Sri Lanka. We loved it here! Located in the middle of Galle Fort, it is a little oasis of calm. While you inevitably can hear the city around you, it is a lovely tranquil space with the rooms located around a pool. The staff are friendly, attentive and provide the best service possible. The building is Dutch colonial which has been beautifully preserved. Our room had a four poster bed and period furniture which matched the style of the building. Breakfast is served at a large shared dining table overlooking the pool. It is selected from a menu which has a good choice of western and Sri Lankan food and is served at the table. All of the sights of Galle Fort are within easy reach, as are the shops, cafes and restaurants. We would have loved to have stayed longer.

Just finished an amazing three night stay at Taru Villas. We had the most fantastic time, it was like having our own private villa! Brilliant location and even better staff. All of the food we had during our stay was fantastic, especially the curry (never seen so much food!). Amazing to see the family of monkeys that frequently visited the property - even gave one a banana! We would 100% return.

This hotel is truly a little gem! Staying here felt like having our own villa in Galle Fort. With only four rooms, we had the pleasure of occupying the spacious upstairs room, which was beautifully furnished in a charming colonial style.
The bathroom was equally impressive—spacious and well-appointed, featuring both a luxurious shower and a lovely bathtub.
Breakfast is served at a communal table in the stunning garden, which adds to the delightful experience. The staff were incredibly courteous and helpful; they even arranged for us to spend a beach day at another Taru Villa property, which we greatly appreciated.
I highly recommend this hotel—we loved every moment of our stay!
