Mango House

In the heart of historic Galle Fort — a bright Dutch colonial villa turned beach guesthouse. Steps from the Old Dutch Hospital, Historical Mansion and National Maritime Museum, and within easy walking distance of the city center.

A family-run guesthouse named for two large mango trees, Mango House mixes colonial-era elegance with a hip Asian twist. Expect handmade terracotta floors, bespoke furniture and individually decorated rooms with premium bedding, flat-screen TVs and rainfall showers for a boutique, cozy stay.

Relax on the terrace or in the garden, borrow a bike, or fire up the BBQ in the picnic area. A small library and kids' playroom make it genuinely family-friendly. Beach shuttle (surcharge) and bike rides mean the surf is never far — perfect for sea-breeze mornings and sunset strolls around the fort.

Complimentary wireless internet in public areas and rooms (additional wired options available). Luggage storage, laundry services and on-site parking keep short stays smooth and straightforward.

Stop by the on-site restaurant and enjoy a complimentary breakfast — choose between a continental spread or a cooked-to-order breakfast served daily from 8:00–10:00. Limited-hours room service and friendly concierge tips help with local dining and tours.
