    This villa was the perfect touch we needed for our holiday. It’s spacious, very clean and the neighbourhood is quiet. It’s location is great for both Galle and Unawatuna. Everything has been well thought out and the internal space was great for us to have a relaxing time. The owner was very helpful to give some top tips in and around Galle. As we only stayed for a week, my only regret is that we didn't stay longer. We enjoyed our stay and look forward to making more memories at this home in the future.

    One of the best villas which could be found in the southern Sri Lanka. If you are searching for a quiet, clean place to enjoy nature along with the beauty of the galle beach, this is a definite recommendation !

    We had a great time in the villa. Owner is very supportive. Clean place. Enough space for 10 adults. Clean rooms with AC and comfortable beds. Seems like they have renovated all the wash rooms. They look new. Only negative point is it is hard to go in a vehicle to the villa directly. We had to park our vehicles in a secure place near the main road. Road to the villa is narrow and there is no place to turn back. All together place is good.

    I’m very glad we stayed at Villa White Dome. Really good place. It’s 3-5 min walking to the beach, restaurants and shops and 5 mins by tuk-tuk to Unawatuna. Villa itself has 5 rooms all with A/C and private bathrooms. Swimming pool and garden are also nice Special thanks to hosts who served perfect breakfast for our group of 6 people, they promptly answered all our questions and kept villa clean and fresh. Definitely recommend to stay!

    Nice more than 150 years old villa. All rooms with A/C and private bathroom. Not really good kitchen for big family but if you not cooking much and want to stay in Galle this is good place!

    We visited in February-March 2023. The main plus is the pool and the owner. The rooms are quite cramped, but everything is clean. Shower rooms are new. The main minus is the kitchen. It's cramped and uncomfortable. But you get used to everything :) I repeat, the owner is very nice. I treated you to Sri Lankan breakfast once, it was colorful! Parking across the street.

    I gave it the highest score, only in the aggregate price and quality. For the price we paid, it would be arrogant of us to expect higher demands. The villa has 5 separate rooms, each with a sanitary room (shower, toilet). Air conditioning, ceiling fan. One of the rooms has a separate entrance from the street. Four rooms share a living room. You need to understand that this villa was once a residence, and was not originally built to receive tourists, so the kitchen and kitchen utensils are from those who lived previously. You can cook in the kitchen, although we lived in the same group and rented the entire villa, so using a shared kitchen did not cause any difficulties. It’s hard to imagine how to use it if you rent only one room with other people staying. The owner is very hospitable. Good-natured. Responding to requests. He prepared breakfast for us every morning and treated us to various Sri Lankan fruits every day. Breakfast is good enough for me as a man. Eggs, omelette, fried sausages, yoghurt, toast, scones, butter, jams, fruit. Traditionally, children cooked their own porridge. According to our wives, breakfast from the owner is their salvation from the morning bustle. The location was very convenient for us, but if we had a Tuk-Tuk for rent, since the beach within walking distance is not the best for this part of the coast. It is more suitable for surfers rather than swimming and bathing. But the proximity to the city, especially to the historical part of the city (Ford Halle), brightened up the evenings when it became dark, there was nothing to do on the beach, and it was boring to sit within four walls all evening. The downside is that it is located close to a Muslim mosque, from which from 5.00 to 6.00 in the morning the singing of prayers could be heard throughout the immediate vicinity. Anyone who is a light sleeper will definitely wake up. By the way, although the rented Tuk-Tuk was parked outside the villa at night, the chances are low that it would be stolen or something similar would be done to it, due to the fact that the entrance to the villa is a dead-end and not a passageway, there were no strangers there and it not visible from the main road. For those who like to take hot showers with good pressure, this is not the place. But, as far as I understand, the concept of hot water for a tourist from Russia, especially one living in a private house, and the local way of life are two different things. “Hot”, or rather warm water is provided here due to solar energy, and the water pressure for a small storage tank is enough for everyone living in different rooms. But, these are features of most of the private sector in Sri Lanka, and not a disadvantage of this particular villa. Also, a local monitor lizard comes to visit the villa. He is very cool, and perhaps protects the villa from local exotic cockroaches.

    Percy Dias from Hong Kong Villa White Dome is an amazing place to spent the vacation. It's a very calm and clean colonial villa situated near by beach. After made my booking, owner Mahendra organize everything about my quarantine arrangement, filling forms, all the necessary advice, sending a driver to pick me up, I simply did nothing ! During quarantine period, I was very relaxed and the staff and the owner is very helpful, constantly in touch with me, provided every support needed. The charges are affordable and can recommend without any reservation. I will definitely come back again with my family and stay few days ! I am very greatfull to Villa White Dome
