Galle Ultra-Luxury — The Finest Five-Star Stays

Galle's most exclusive stays are private villas rented whole, with a full household staff, an infinity pool above the surf and a cook who prepares Sri Lankan rice and curry to order. Others are small hillside estates among cinnamon and tea, with only a few suites. Expect tailor-made itineraries, from a private historian's walk through the fort to a chartered boat along the coast, and complete discretion throughout.
