Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
small hotel, big mess behind the reception desk and in the open store room. First they had to change the dirty sheets, a TV with no connection, the room needs a makeover. In short the hotel is largly overpriced, not to be recomended. A new pool is beeing built, no time for maintenance.

Hyggelig hotell i flotte omgivelser

Fint, lite hotell i nærheten av jungle beach. 20 min å gå til unawatuna langs sti, ellers var det lett å få tuk tuk. Kort vei til galle. Man har alt i nærheten, men det er ingenting i umiddelbar nærhet som er åpent om kvelden.

Nice enough

Very quiet, though we did stay in the off season, so that's to be expected. Hotel is a little remote, but easily accessible by tuktuk. Staff very friendly.

10/10 Excellent

Best staff ever!

The Villa Baywatch is in a unique location. It is steps away from the Peace Pagoda and just minutes away from Jungle Beach. This hill has a special legend attached to explain why the plants here are found no where else. My room was cheerful and comfortable. The meals are very good. You can get lunch at the beach, too. Ft Galle is close by with many things to see and do. I fell and broke my arm while visiting Ft Galle. The owner of Villa Baywatch made sure I went to the hospital and the tuk tuk driver stayed with me. Other staff members at the hotel were very helpful. I can't recommend this hotel enough.

Nice hotel next to a quiet beach w a few caveats

Hotel is relatively new & modern and clean and our room had a nice view of the Galle bay. The staff and the owner were super nice. It is also located walking distance to a beach. The Beach is very quiet and pretty but there seems to be a disturbing trend in Sri Lanka with trash and disposable consumables (packaging) & plastic trash collecting all over the place. This area and the beach was no exception. We found several pieces of large plastic bottles, soft drinks & packages and cigarettes on the beach. Generally speaking we rarely saw any trash bins or any facilities for people to dispose their waste properly in all these tourist heavy locations. Even places like Sigiriya (a UNESCO world heritage site!) had a big trash problem all around it. Super sad. I hope Sri Lankans can rally take care of their beautiful island nation a little better or else this place will not be much of a tourist attraction for much longer! That said, we wouldn't hesitate to stay at this hotel again if we are in the area.
