Guest comments
"We had a fabulous at your two villas in Galle. Everyone was charming and helpful. The pool and view at Malgedara were just stunning. Kurullaah is a fabulous house and the proximity to the beach meant we whizzed back and forwards in a tuk tuk which the kids loved. I will recommend your villas to any-one who asks." Dec 07/Jan 08.
