WHAT PEOPLE SAY

''Wished we had discovered it sooner!''

The henna estate is the most beautiful home that I have ever stayed. It would be unjust to call it a 'hotel' as the Henna Eatate has a much more luxurious and personal feel it.

We call it Galle living...which means to us, taking your time to immerse yourself in a peaceful environment. A spiritual refuge to surf, meditate, embrace local crafts and experience customs, traditions that enrich and connect you to the landscape, nature, and culture of Galle. It means a communion with a place that allows for reflection with greater mental and physical regeneration. Reside in our galle properties and experience a sense of belonging….
A sense of.......Galle living.
