Overall,We liked the property for its design and ambience

The house is lovely. Originally a Dutch villa that’s been restored beautifully & somehow manages to feel both original & comfortably modern at the same time. The house was spotless as was the pool & the caretaker Mohan could not have been more helpful & accommodating. The breakfast is supplied as part of the price paid for the villa but both nights we (a family of 4) stayed Mohan bought groceries that we paid for & made dinner for us which we tipped him for. The villa is very central & within walking distance, or a short tuk tuk ride, of the fort & town. Green Casa was my favourite place to stay during our trip to Srilanka.

A beautiful house in a central location

What an amazing place to stay! The house itself is an absolute treasure,wonderfully restored and holding on firmly to its colonial past with a breakfast  made to your taste and a lovely garden pool.
The excellent caretaker is always around to arrange everything you need and being just outside town it is nice and quiet.The owner drops in from time to time and was helpful with a spare bed for my daughter.
I could not recommend this place enough.A gem!

Incredible

The place is beautiful but the caretaker is useless and has a bad attitude. On arrival we rang the bell and no one answered so we let our selves in and were calling out for someone until he turned up from the back. Didn’t offer to take our bags or make sure we were comfortable and proceeded to watch tv in the living room and then went to sleep. In the evening when we came back after dinner he was entertaining some random person in the living room also watching tv. This felt so dodgy it wasn’t funny. Some friends joined us for drinks in our room and at 9:45pm he proceeded to tell us that they must leave by 10:30 and that even if we go out we must come by 11:00 which is ridiculous. He can’t be dictating terms to us when we are paying good money. After my friend spoke to him sternly he said ok they can stay but we must lock the door so we said fine. In the morning I asked for a cup of coffee, he gave it without milk. When we asked for milk he said well you only asked for coffee, which is ridiculous. Also i don’t know when the last time he cleaned the pool was. Definitely not coming back for another stay 

Terrible service! 

We had a great stay at Green Casa. First hand, what caught our attention was the minimalist, gorgeous interiors and high ceiling architecture. Apparently it is a 150 yr old Dutch construction which was renovated to become a rented villa. We had a lovely stay, swam at the backyard pool enjoying our beer. Great location close to Galle Fort.They serve a lovely breakfast which is a mix of traditional sri lankan with your basic egg and toast. Point to note: No lunch or dinner available here. So make sure to eat somewhere before coming back to the villa as it is tucked inside a small alley or you can order in via delivery.

Great stay with full Galle feels, tucked away in a quiet lane

Upon arrival the man who greeted us was too busy watching TV (in which he sat there for 8+ hours) to show any sort of hospitality expected from a hotel. Green Casa is a house that has been re fitted to be a hotel. The house itself is nice, but not much care was taken to give guests a good atmosphere. The pool was filthy, so bad we didn't dare to swim. Went back in to the room we had (as it was awkward with the man watching tv right in the entrance). We decided to turn the TV on in our room, not one channel worked. As we were leaving for dinner in Galle the man told us we had to be back by 10pm and was quite stern about it. Upon checkout the next day, instead of changing the bed sheets they just made the bed ready for the next guests, which made both my partner and I feel sick to our stomachs.

I am Australian and my wife is Sri Lankan and it seemed like his attitude towards the fact she is a local meant he didn't have to try and make any sort of effort, glaring at both of us, not smiling the entire time we were there like we had inconvenienced him by having stayed there.

Caretaker had a stinking attitude

A wonderful hidden oasis For four days. We felt at home instantly. They arranged pick up from the airport with a lovely big sign, 2 hours and we where in the pool with a fresh juice. The building is beautiful, only three rooms around a central living room. The bed was very comfortable with good cotton bedding. A very grown up space, piece and quite and traditional. There are always a couple of lovely staff on hand for tea or a beer. The Sri Lankan breakfasts where very tasty, different everyday eaten at one table sharing adventures stories with others guests. The casa is walking distance to the main road with a range of non tourist shops, local restaurant a short Tuk Tuk ride away on the beach, Sagan’s restaurant for local prices and eating with the locals. The beach is a surf beach with restaurants full of western food. Walk further along to the fishing boats and you can help the fisherman pull in the net. A Tuk Tuk to Jungle beach is no more than 400 rupees. Tuk Tuk to Galle is about 250. Try ‘Indian hut’ for great local food and people. Don’t forget the mosquito spray they are besties after 4pm. 

A grown up’s hidden oasis in a beautiful, quiet and traditional building

It's a wonderful place to have a peaceful holiday. Staff was very helpful and caring. 
Place was nicely maintained. It s an old house which was renovated with modern touch. 
It's like staying at home away from home. 

You can visit Galle fort for lunch and dinner.

Peaceful stay...

I loved the boutique hotel and the decor.  You smell cinnamon as soon as you enter the front door. I had the place to myself for the night.  
The room was large with vaulted ceilings.  The only downside was the TV.  It took a little while to get properly working thanks to the staff.  I want able to get BBC news tho.  Had to watch a really bad film bc it was the only English Channel.  
The hotel is just outside the fort.  Not a long distance but there isn’t anything to do around it.  There is a in unique shaped pool out back and a small seating area.  There is also a large common area to sit and watch TV if you choose.  
Oh and the train!  If your a light sleeper this may be an inconvenience because the train runs very close to this hotel and blows the horn. 

My only upset with this hotel is that I travel with
a Tempurpedic pillow.  I’ve had back surgery and this really helps me sleep. I slept on it the only night I stayed there!
The next day, my driver and I drove to Bentota.  Only there did I realize it was missing.  Called the hotel and they searched but couldn’t find it.  I’ve misplaced other items at hotels along my 3 week journey and was able to retrieve them easily enough. In no way am I accusing anyone of stealing it.  I just feel like it might have been misplaced or overlooked somehow.   I even drove back to search for myself!  I was able to see the bedroom I stayed in, the kitchen and the plastic storage container that housed sheets.  I wasn’t able to inspect the entire place. It’s just a mystery and I’m super sad it wasn’t found. 😢🤔

Missing pillow??

Very well maintained bungalow. Room was clean and spacious. The caretaker Dinesh was at hand for any request, and served a really wonderful breakfast. Location is quite convenient. There were a few issues with the wifi, but these were resolved swiftly.
