Pros (+) We have had a fantastic and wonderful time. If you are the Galle area this place is a must - I would only recommend to use own transportation should you plan to roam around. I explicitly disagree with the few bad ratings I have seen. Staff was wonderful and extremely kind. Everything was clean, tidy and in an immaculate condition. We would have loved to stay longer.

Pros (+) Pretty boutique hotel on the coast. 10 mins drive from Galle Fort in a tuk tuk. Food was very good and cocktails too. Friendly staff always smiling and happy to help. Also good to walk along to bars on beach
Cons (-) As with many of the hotels we’ve been to in Sri Lanka, Very little atmosphere in the restaurant and they all seem to go to sleep after dinner.

Pros (+) Being right on the beach was wonderful. The dining room, living room and pool area are perfect for a relaxing stay. The staff are attentive and discreet. The quality and menu in the restaurant were perfect for us. I am already recommending Arabella to my friends and hope to return.

Pros (+) Beautiful property next to quiet beach. Only joggers and fishermen in action early mornings perfect place for morning yoga on the beach. Very friendly staff. We had a room upstairs eith wiev with palmtrees and you could hear the trafic a little but we had very good sleep. The rooms are with lots of space even bathrooms are Beautiful. All these elegant interior details, you need to experience.
Cons (-) I liked everything. The prices on the restaurants are little higher than on a plain beach restaurant but you get quality food in Beautiful setting for the lazy luxury days by the pool and sun beds. There is several fresh beach restaurants quite close by if you want take a walk along the Beautiful beach.
