Villas Ginger Palm Villa

Ginger Palm Villa is amazing - on top of being in a great location and a beautiful property, the staff are what really made our trip so special! The rooms are lovely - very clean and provide everything you need (insect repellent / after sun). Breakfast / the food is delicious! All made fresh! Would recommend the French Toast! We would recommend a turtle / snorkelling trip with the staff. They took us to a beach and located the turtles for us to see - we had previously tried at Mirissa but didn’t have much luck and going with the Ginger Palm staff was great! If you want to get involved in the cricket that the staff play daily - it is very fun to be involved with. They’re the nicest and happiest people! Of course you don’t have to but we did and it was a highlight! Thanks Sandeep & all The Ginger Palm staff! Jack & Georgie

We had an amazing stay at Ginger Palm Villa, I can't recommend it enough. It was a quick four minute walk to the beach but secluded and quietly tucked away which was a nice change of pace. The staff and team were so friendly and helpful, we couldn't have asked for anything else. The rooms are very cute and the pool was very nice. Breakfast was also delicious. Would love to come back.

Amazing. The place was absolute luxury. Impeccable standard. But the guys that worked there were even more incredible. Sandeep and the team looked after us so well. Their hospitality knew no bounds. Even staying after their shits at night to make sure we got back safely from our adventures. They really cared. They took us to the only ethical turtle sanctuary on the south coast They organised any trips that we wanted to do, checking availability, weather forecast and if it was a worthy day to do the particular activity (for example if elephants had been spotted at the safari then it was a good day to go) Sandeep even taught me surfing in his time off. Even though Sri Lanka is an exceptionally friendly place this level of service and friendship was above and beyond any expectation. Sincere thanks to everyone at the Ginger Palm 🙏

My husband and I have traveled a lot over the years, and this was hands down the best hotel experience we’ve ever had. We loved absolutely everything about this place and can’t wait to come back. The staff were all so friendly, kind, and helpful, it really made our stay feel extra special. The food was incredible; everything we ate was amazing, and it was by far the best food we had in Sri Lanka. The location is perfect, just a couple of minutes walk to Hiriketiya Beach, but the villa itself feels very private and peaceful. With only a few rooms, it’s like having your own little slice of paradise. The facilities were great, everything was exceptionally clean and well-designed. We couldn’t recommend it more!

Ginger Palm Villa was our favourite stay in Sri Lanka after visiting a few different areas. Although it’s not on the beachfront it’s a 5 minute stroll to get onto Hiriketiya beach and a short TukTuk to neighbouring Dikwella. We thought the villa was in a great location as lots to do on the doorstep but still very quiet and private. One of the staff from the hotel met us at turtle beach on his day off where he helps hatch turtles. He had arranged snorkels for us so we got to see many fish and even swam with wild turtles which was just amazing! We couldn’t fault anything about our stay, it was simply amazing. The villa had everything you need from a games room, pool floats, beach towels, mosquito repellent and much needed after sun! The food was the best we had anywhere in Sri Lanka and staff are some of the nicest people we have ever met, they really couldn’t do enough to help us enjoy our stay. The manager Sandeep arranged a taxi to our next hotel for us with Samitha and he was by far the best and safest driver we had in Sri Lanka, he took us on the coast road and took us to some beautiful places on the way. We would highly recommended to anyone and we really hope to come back one day!

I mean it when I say that this may be my favourite hotel I’ve ever stayed in. Mainly because it doesn’t really feel like a hotel - more like a gorgeous personal space with incredible staff on hand to help with whatever you need. My girlfriend and I didn’t want to leave. The food was a particular highlight - essentially anything you pick off the menu, you’ll love. The beach is less than a 10 minute walk away if that. I wish I could go back, it really is special.
