We were looking forward to our stay at the Frangipani as it looks even better in reality than it does on their website photos. We had pre-booked and paid a deposit to stay at the boutique hotel for five nights over New Year, along with our two young children. We’d confirmed a room with a sea view and indoor bathroom... more

Our four night stay here was heaven. The location couldn't be better:- on the beach, within easy reach [readily available tuk-tuks] of Galle,Unawatuna and the beautiful beaches a little further South which are more suited to swimming and surfing. The beach outside was lovely, turtle spotting at dusk and stilt fisherman on the doorstep! The hotel:- The rooms were lovely,... more

How the people that created the wonderful Galle Fort Printers managed to muster this drab, cluster of shabby, style-free rooms I'll never know. Drapes and sheets grubby, holes in mossie nets that you could fly a 747 through and trash washed up on the beach. We were meant to stay three nights but bailed out after one. The manager is... more

Our first time to Sri Lanka, we booked the hotel almost entirely on the look of the website. The reservation process was simple and uncomplicated, providing us with a flexible accommodation option of staying both at the Frangipani Tree and their sister hotel in Galle, The Fort Printers. Unfortunately we arrived a little worse for wear as we had endured... more

Where should I start - the sumptuous food, mouth-watering juices, superb service, jaw-dropping-frangipani-tree-covered-roofless toilets, stupendous infinity pool, passionate ocean crashing on the beach...it really was a little slice of heaven, a sublime dream. more

We were looking for a few days of relaxation on our way home to the UK from Singapore. And what a place to relax. The room was spacious and you slept to the sound of the waves breaking on the beach. The service was fantastic - and nothing was too much trouble for Sugath who was looking after us. And... more

We were looking for a perfect venue to get married in Sri Lanka. After lots and lots of searching we found The Frangipani Tree. It seemed to be exactly what we were looking for - a small boutique hotel, stylish, modern, contemporary rooms and on the beach and it delivered all of this. We contacted the manager Warnathilaka to see... more

The place is stunning from the entrance and only improves as you settle down. We stayed for a week in Olive Ridley. The views from the first storey rooms are picturesque with your own private beach with an occasional fisherman trying to catch fish with a string!!! The rooms are beautiful, spacious and full of light and comfort. The bathrooms... more
