Outstanding, attentive, personal service in a really beautiful house and gardens. Very quiet, super food, great pool, fun yoga classes. The free meditation and tea in your room are a lovely touch.
Not a complaint but would love to see a greater range of local tea available, and maybe some cake to go with it!
This resort is an absolute gem, meticulously planned and beautifully arranged to create an atmosphere of serenity and authenticity. Every detail, from the sublime décor to the thoughtfully curated spaces, contributes to an experience of pure relaxation. The breakfast is exceptional, offering a delightful blend of flavors that perfectly complement the tranquil surroundings. If you’re looking to esc...
Niyagama was simply stunning and we had such a relaxing stay for 3 nights after our tour that we didn’t venture out again, except for a morning walk around the village meeting the friendly locals. There is such attention to detail at the property and the staff are wonderful. We didn’t come for a retreat but we did enjoy the daily morning meditation and a couple of wonderful yin yoga classes, as we...
Everything! The beautiful pool and scenery, delicious food and juices! Amazing yoga classes even a complete novice could get on board with! Beds so comfortable and great air con. And lovely lovely staff!
Nothing, it was beautiful!
I loved the personal touch, I really felt taken care of. The place is very sereen and zen. My best stay in Sri Lanka so far. And many thanks to Elke for the yoga class to tailor the class to my needs.
Such a memorable and rejuvenating stay with the generous and kind Elke and team. Delicious, clean food (best breakfast I had in Sri Lanka!) and it was so relaxing watching the monkeys in the trees from the room and walking barefoot throughout. Would recommend having a treatment, I had a great wrap. The team have mastered the small details, and there is a huge pool.. the list goes on!
Our second visit to Niyagama house and it was just as perfect as the first time. Elke and her team provide a brilliant service, we were so well looked after with a lovely room, great food, brilliant yoga classes and big pool. Gorgeous setting and possible to walk a 5k circuit from house which we did every day. It’s 15 mins from Galle fort in a car.
Can’t think of a single thing.
I completely agree with an earlier review that people shopping at this price point should look elsewhere—there are far better options available in the area. We stayed during the high season from January 2nd to 4th, and many comparable hotels, particularly closer to Galle, were priced much lower. This only emphasized how overpriced and underwhelming the experience was. The reviews here seem to come...
Checkout Policy and Staffing: Apparently, you need to reserve a checkout time slot. Changing this last-minute (from 11:00 to 09:30) was extremely difficult and was met with excuses about being a "small hotel." The repeated excuse of having a "small crew" does not justify the poor service. While staffing limitations may be a challenge, they do not justify poor service at this price point. Either hi...Read more
