we just left tangalle after a 3 week stay. started out at palm paradise. spent only 2 nights there, being too tired (after all our travelling) to look at any place else. well, the operative work is very clean, nice people, lovely beach, but the wooden cabanas are really dark. even when the rain stopped it was dark...the roof overhangs... more

We stayed at the Palm Beach as an unplanned stop between Yala and Galle for 2 nights - we had a fantastic time and thoroughly enjoyed the stay. If you want an amazing view stay at Cabana 6 - situated slightly up a slope it looks down and across the small bay, so you can sit on the veranda with... more

We spent 11 days in this beautiful place. All we can say is Palm Paradise is the best option to relax in the area. Walking along the coast near Tangalla and Goyambokka, we found no better place to stay. Peaceful and romantic cabana hidden in the palm groove, two beautiful beaches with palms hanging over the golden sand, friendly staff... more

From the moment you arrive you are bombarded with rules...posted on walls, trees, your room, and even handed to you at the front desk. Don't do this, or that, etc. Beach is tiny and has two shacks on it that are owned by others. Drunken men drinking whiskey shout at you as soon as you step foot through the gate... more
