“Fabulous boutique luxury in the heart of Galle Fort; It is a gorgeous house with a colonial feel, great art on the walls and spotlessly clean. The modest pool was a godsend, as Galle was very hot on our visit. We have been a number of times, however never stayed at hotel with a pool - and now I would say that it is a pre-requisite”.

“A magical holiday home… We had the most amazing family holiday at Skye house. The house is absolutely gorgeous and beautifully done. You can’t get a more perfect location - right on a secluded beach with white sand and amazing waters. The pool isn’t a tiny plunge pool but a generous size for play and laps. My son had the best holiday and still asks about the house and the team and can’t wait to go back - and neither can all of us. We would go back in a heartbeat!”
