"Les petits dejeuners sont delicieux L accueil et le service du personnel sont tres attentionnes Le cadre est magnifique "

"Rooms were very clean and very roomy. Pool was lovely but cool built on shaded side of buildings. Little further out than I thought. Restaurant was handy and okay for food or drinks."

"Excellent staff. Beautiful space. "

"Staff were very helpful and friendly. Room was clean with a nice bathroom and warm showe. A/C was great. Top location right in the centre of Fort too"

"Taavetti positions itself as a five-star property. In its current form, I would rate it a strong four — and with a few thoughtful refinements, it could comfortably reach true five-star boutique level. I originally booked three nights and extended for six more, which already says a lot about the overall value and comfort. Highlights: • Excellent value for what you receive. • Peaceful, largely empty stretch of beach — a real luxury. • Relaxed beach club with direct ocean access. • Breakfast is good; lunch and dinner are very good (the barramundi was excellent). • Kind, attentive staff. Romaya, the owner (based in Canada), clearly has a vision and strong foundations are in place. Things to note: The hotel and beach club (also the main restaurant) are separated by the main road. It’s manageable, but you do need to cross to reach the beach. The beach club extension is still being completed. From the front it looks polished; from the sea you can see unfinished concrete upper levels. For me, pricing reflects this. WiFi at the beach club needs strengthening — especially for guests working remotely. To move from 4 to 5 stars: • Replace plastic water bottles with glass mineral bottles. • Swap plastic straws for paper or metal. • Upgrade toiletries to refillable ceramic or glass containers, ideally partnering with a local Ayurvedic brand. As someone who works with hospitality properties worldwide, I share these as constructive suggestions. Overall: would return. "

"Clean, amenities, location"

"Small hotel. Room was clean and comfortable and the staff was great but it had issues that you might expect with an older property"

"I nearly wanted to provide one star if not for them upgrading the room. The room had 3 large cockroaches that fly. I injured my palm while hitting one. There were many other insects and spiders too. After they upgraded us, the TV in the room couldn’t work. The breakfast was limited and tasteless. The location was not ideal. Should get one inside Galle Fort. "
