Hotel in middle of nowhere

With basic amenities of tourist destination hotels like a clean room (only cleaned upon request), drinking water(referring to the 2 small bottles of water given in the room), fresh towels ( again upon request only), clean swimming pool (gathering ground for mosquitoes), 24/7 electricity missing for this hotel and the fact that it is located far from tourist attractions, I highly recommend not to choose this hotel. The only saving grace for this hotel is the good food.

No villa

Our party of 5 showed up to a nonexistent villa and were given 2 dark rooms with 3 single beds in each...just like a bunk room or hostel. We had planned on a kitchen so stopped on the way to the villa and bought all sorts of breakfast food for a nice brunch and had to cook it in an open 1/2 finished kitchen (wall-less) on single electric skillets.

A peaceful get-away filled with natural beauty

My family and I cannot speak highly enough of our stay at Fort Edge a week ago. From the time we arrived, Thushara, Roshan and Sunil went out of their way to make sure we felt at home, and that all our needs were met. From delicious meals at the restaurant (there is a great variety of both western and Sri-Lankan dishes to feast on), to very helpful suggestions about nearby places to visit and the best ways to get there, to consistently outstanding hospitality from all the staff, we went away from Fort Edge wishing that we could stay longer. With its natural beauty and tranquil surroundings, and an amazing pool/hammocks and other areas to relax in, this retreat is perfect for families, friend groups and couples. Thank you so much to Thushara, Roshan and Sunil for giving our family such a beautiful experience.

Lovely, quiet location, excellent staff

Loved it here, great location, lovely friendly staff, the local tuk tuk driver looked after us and took us into Galle town and elsewhere, great food, lovely spot to eat by the pool, all lit up at night. Even a power cut didn't spoil things, owner lighted candles and we watched the fireflies.

This is a 'not to miss place'

This was by far the best stay during our holiday. Beautiful location (quiet and peaceful) with lovely views. Very spacious and well appointed bedroom and bathroom. Excellent food served here by attentive staff. The current manager and assistant manageress were extremely helpful, over and above what one would expect. Swimming pool was great too.

Fint hotell i bekväm miljö

Litet och intim hotell med trevlig och hjälpsam personal. Låg fint vid teplantage och skogen, utsikten var vacker. Enkelt att beställa tuctuc för en billig peng ner till stranden.

とにかくビーチまでが遠すぎる。トゥクトゥクで5分は掛かるし、周りは田んぼと山しかないので外に出れない。 よって、宿泊費以外に別のコストが確実にかかります。 また、掲載のホテル名が実際と異なるので見つけるのに一苦労。もう二度と泊まることはありません。
