TESTIMONIALS

''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. You feel like a guest in someone's home or like you are staying in your own home with staff to assist you. The estate is a old colonial home, with all the original features and is beautifully decorated throughout. The property is clean, relaxed and charming. It actually rained while we were staying and we couldn't have been more content just hanging around in the house. The staff themselves are friendly, polite, curtious, unobtrusive and attentive. We had originally booked to stay at hotel close by but checked out early and decided to move here and how glad we were. We spent the last two days of being in the south of Sri Lanka at the Henna Estate and we wished we had discovered it sooner!

There are almost no words to describe this place, the Galle Henna Estate is a magical place,

very quiet and very peaceful. For those who appreciate the seclusion of the inland, enjoying the peaceful view over the rice fields - here is the perfect place. By tuktuk you can reach Galle in 25 minutes, Talpe 5 minutes, Unawatuna in 10 minutes. But you can also simply enjoy the estate and spend the whole day and night there. Actually we extended our stay by two nights! The communication with Sva is absolutely great, the staff in the house is very friendly and always helpful. Thanks Sva, we felt like guest an extraordinary home. We will never forget this place.

This is definitely not your ordinary airbnb.

We were pampered from the minute we drove in and looked after warmly through out our one week stay. The pool was a blessing in the heat and the dinners we have cooked for us every night were better than any other restaurant we went to. We will definitely be back.

An extraordinary place to stay. A truly exquisite house in a traditional style which is elegant, cultured and very comfortable. Aruna, the house manager, is a superb host and remarkably informative, genial and more than keen to make our stay comfortable. We were surprised that the house was more beautiful and interesting than we expected. Photos struggle to capture the wonder of this house. Thank you! Chris & Emma

How to express the pleasure we felt staying in such a beautiful / fantastic house.

Thank you so much The style of the house and furniture were so special - we found the beautiful furniture very interesting. Location and and the beautiful garden was just what we wanted. Of course we think it's nice with the sea - but we like to hurry away from the buzzy traffic and many people on the sea hotels today. We simply couldn't wish for anything better than this house. A true oasis! We would like one day to be able to return to SriLanka - and if so - this special place We were very satisfied with the staff It is heigly recommend
