Family hotels and homes in Talpe

Stunning villa with great architecture ! The villa has a great location with easy access to the beach and just 10 mins away from Galle fort.. The staff were very accommodating and friendly, the villa was very clean and of exceptional standard. In addition the food was amazing, we had Sri Lankan food as well as more Western cuisines and it was probably the best food I had during my trip to Sri Lanka. Most importantly the rooms were spacious and clean and had great views overlooking the beach . Really enjoyed my stay at Candella House.

The hotel stuff very friendly and prepared us delicious srilankan food.

It is an outstanding accommodation. Very beautiful and stunning views. Lovely clean rooms. Beautifully de decorated villa. It is close to the beach with a tuk tuk and we loved the hospitality of the staff and owners. Will surely get back!

The host was incredibly welcoming and helpful. The room was a big, comfy and clean. The location is perfect, You have feet in the water. Chilling and watching the Ocean is absolutely unique . Overall wonderfull experience, would recommend.

great location and very clean

Nirocha and her family were adorable and very attentive to us, she advised us on visits and even negotiated for us a long distance taxi or the making of a piece of jewelry by a local jeweler at a very attractive price and a workmanship  very well done.  Located on the seafront with a natural swimming pool at the foot of the hotel.  There are even some kinds of bathtubs that have been dug into the reef.  The restaurant was excellent and plentiful as was the breakfast (sri lankan for us but they also provide continentale ones).  There are 5 rooms, we had one of the two upper rooms equipped with air conditioning and WiFi.  A king size four-poster bed with mosquito net.  Really a very nice surprise especially for the human quality of Nirocha and his whole family.  Thank you for this great stay. .

We completely loved this accomodation. Location was perfect, as we came by train and left by bus, it was walking distance everywhere. Whole property is super cool with nice touches that makes it very cozy. Room was extremely spacious with very comfortable huge bed. I liked balcony with nice seating area, which we did not have time to use :) . Whole style of hotels gives you nice colonial vibes, which is so typical for this town, so it just perfectly completed whole feeling from this Sri Lankan historical gem. Stuff was super nice always have nice words for us and helped us with all the questions we had.

Ashan and his family have been a great host. I loved the hospitality and the warmth that they showed us. I would always recommend this place

The owner, the breakfast, the swimming pool, the clineless.... all perfect! I reccomend it to everyone

We stayed in the villa at the top, which offered a stunning view thanks to the large panoramic doors and windows. We stayed in Room 19, which turned out to be spacious and cozy. It had all the necessary amenities: air conditioning, a comfortable bed and mattress (just like home), new beautiful and comfortable furniture, nice bathroom with a large shower, a bidet, and a washing machine. We were pleased to have a kitchen, a refrigerator, and household items. The territory is simply magnificent, it was looked after every day, the place is full of beautiful trees where birds sing and build nests. You can see how grows mango, papaya, lime, bamboo, etc. It’s like a paradise. There’s also a pool on the premises. It was nice to dip in and spend time there. Staff:
 The first thing that comes to mind about the staff is their smiles and politeness. I thank everyone who works in this place for their kindness and friendliness. Sasini always tried to assist us with any inquiries: helping with little requests, organizing excursions, and you could talk to her about the culture and traditions in Sri Lanka. She was very responsive and kind, even giving me a small gift to remember our stay. Driver Sandaru was always friendly and quickly took us to the necessary places in a tuk-tuk. He recommended visit a turtle hatchery and took us to nice beaches: Dalawela Beach and Jungle Beach, which are not far from the villa. He even gifted us some incense, it was nice. Every 3-4 days, we were offered cleaning, and they vacuumed, changed the sheets, towels, and wiped all surfaces and mirrors. However, you could also request cleaning earlier if needed. Breakfast was included in the price:
A buffet was offered mostly local food, but it was always varied. One day my wife mentioned that she likes the Aralia flower, and later the staff presented it to her just like that, it was a very kind and nice gesture.
