This is another glowing review of Palm Grove. The guest house is simply lovely, with beautiful plants and a selection of seating areas. Beer, soda, and water are easily accessible, and it is a great place to relax and enjoy the tropical ambiance. Our room was spotless, and the bed very comfortable. It is a short walk to the main...

We booked this guesthouse after reading Trip Advisor and were pleased that we had directions from the owners otherwise we'd never have found it. It's tucked away down a narrow pedestrian lane off beach road, just a short walk from the shops, restaurants and wonderful beach. Our hosts Lorraine and Paul were two of the warmest, friendliest people we met... More

Myself and two friends arrived at the Palmgrove for a weeks stay for the England Cricket Match in galle. We all found it a great place to stay, with a really welcoming feel. From the friendliness of everyone (paul, lorraine and the staff team were great!) to the high standard, and cleanliness, of the accomodation and rest areas to the... More

Late in posting this. Got distracted by house decorating on return from holiday. What a lovely time we had at Palm Grove. It was only a short stay but we felt so at home with Lorraine and Paul. Very friendly and attentive,but not intrusive. We were invited to a dinner on our first night which was being held as a... More

We stayed in March 2012, eight days at the Palm Grove. Can only recommend the place. Friendly and helpful hosts, Lorraine and Paul. The house is well maintained. clean and tidy. Especially the roof terrace is fantastic. Breakfast is a reasonable "basic". (Coffee / Tea + fruit, the rest must be bought separately). There is a short distance to the... More

I don’t normally write reviews, but I wanted to do so because this place was absolutely fantastic and left us wanting to stay longer if only we had the time to. We were originally debating between a beach front accommodation or somewhere further inland, and we were so glad we chose the latter. Palm Grove is located a few minutes... More

Palm Grove is a great place to stay for a chill and relaxed holiday. Nestled back off the beach road of Unawatuna, it provides a peaceful, quiet, and comfortable stay when visiting the southern coast of Sri Lanka. With only four rooms, two spacious lounging areas, and a well kept garden, you will find yourself saying "Man, we are lucky... More

Me and my wife spent 8 wonderful nights at Palm Grove, Unawatuna. The guest house is in a relatively quiet street surrounded by palm trees and lush vegetation - inhabited by various birds, squirrels and monkeys. The room was clean and spacious with a very comfortable bed at an unbeatable price, there are two terraces where you can enjoy breakfast... More

Palm Grove is a beautiful Sri Lankan villa with four clean and spacious rooms and a lovely roof terrace. We were lucky to be able to return here twice during our holiday. After staying a few nights at other places, they just were not as relaxing as Palm Grove. Because we stayed here three times for several nights, we have... More
