Mrs Wijenayake's Beach Haven Guest House

Reasonably priced room in the Galle old fort area. Everything within walking distance.

Amazing Breakfast! Great AC location and staff. Small room.

All the positive reviews of this place are justified, everything was basically perfect. The location is right in the heart of the Fort but a little away from the busiest street so its quiet. The rooms are presently beautifully and everything is clean. Hot water, fan and aircon are all great. The common areas are nice and have a book exchange shelf. The breakfast is enormous and delicous, very good value. The only reason I did not have it both days is that it was just too generous! The staff are very attentive and friendly. I would recommend this place to anyone.

Only thing I would mention is the narrow staircase in to the property. For most people no problem at all, but for someone with limited mobility this might be an issue.

A beautful colonial era house converted to a  comfortable b&b with all basic amenities. The rooms were clean, the place well maintained and at a walking distance from all the tourist spots in Galle Fort. They also provided us with access to a kitchen for tea and coffee.

Great stay!

Extended my stay because it felt right there. Friendly and really helpful staff, really good breakfast on the verandah, great location and price. Could use a little TLC in places but that’s outweighed by everything else.

Mrs Wijenaki’s was a great place to stay in GalleFort. Comfy, clean rooms with a/c and fan, a verandah to sit on and read or chat to others, and very friendly and helpful staff. Fauzan, the manager, is approachable and as a  family member he has lots of useful info and advice if you need it. The breakfast is absolutely delicious! We recommend this place highly.

You couldn’t ask for a better place to stay in Galle than this. One of the best places I’ve stayed in for a long time. I loved all the thoughtful touches of a cold juice when you arrive, flowers on the best and them putting on the ac before we arrived so we could arrive to a cool room. Free tea and coffee all day and the use of a fridge and freezer was amazing. Staff were also wonderful and very helpful. Couldn’t ask for more.

Fully recommend this Guesthouse. 

Excellent communication prior to arrival.

Rooms provided everything we needed for a family of 4. 2 double beds. Good sized bathroom. A seating area on the balcony which we used in the morning and evening. 

Breakfast was amazing. Treated to a delicious Sri Lankan breakfast. 

The guesthouse is centrally located in Fort Galle and is walking distance to all the sights, cafes and restaurants. 

Would fully recommend when looking for accommodation in Fort Galle.

The place on the whole was very nice, the room was clean and tidy.The bathroom was OK, but had signs of wear and tear eg chipped tiles. This didn't bother us, but some people may be put off by this. The manager and staff were extremely friendly and helpful.The breakfast was brilliant with lots of choices. The kitchen is available to make your own drinks at no charge. All in all a nice place to stay.

A walkable distance from the main gate, this guest house lies in a quiet street free from the city bustle.  The building with its airy balconies may well go back to the Dutch era.  The owner is very helpful and friendly, as are all the staff, and the whole place has a warm family atmosphere.  The balconies allow the chance to meet and talk to other guests (but not too late, to avoid disturbance!)

The area was not free of biting insects even in the dry season, but the mosquito nets saw them off.  And last but not least, the breakfast was the best I had in Sri Lanka, well presented and all you could eat till the evening!

Going Dutch in Galle

Amazing stay, good value in the heart of Galle Fort.

Excellent guest house in Galle Fort

Absolutely loved our stay.

Fully recommended for Fort Galle

The people are what make this such a special place!  The rooms are nice and clean.  Laundry available for a very reasonable price which was great for our 3+week stay.  Local restaurants, spas and shopping locations all within walking distance.  The fort is an incredible location for a holiday! Can't wait for our next visit!!

Safe, friendly atmosphere!

We visited May 2022. The owner was friendly and helpful. He helped for bike rental and currency exchange. Finally he also helped us for transport as we traveled from Galle to Ella. They have water refilling facility with games in the entrance office.
The room was clean with Wi-Fi and other basic facilities.

Pleasant and friendly

This guest house has a long history and is in a convenient position near the Flag Rock Bastion. The people who run it are so kind and I felt very much at home. I appreciated the air conditioning, wi-fi, included drinking water and tea and the washing line on the roof. The breakfast cost extra but was very good.

The perfect location to get the very best from Galle - perfectly placed in the very heart of the fort area.

Clean comfortable rooms, mosquito nets, aircon, plenty of hot water with good water pressure - wonderful breakfasts!

The family who owns this hotel are wonderfully helpful and happy to guide you to get the very best from your stay in Galle and beyond - nothing is too much trouble, they're very very kind...!

Highly Recommended...!!!
