A fantastic hotel right on the beach. We had a wonderful room with a view of the sea. A beautiful garden with a huge pool. The warm and friendly staff made our stay unforgettable. We’d particularly like to mention Tarushi, Ahinsa and Thejani. We’ll never forget their service.

We have just returned from another great two weeks staying at The Fortress,Sri Lanka. There have been a few changes since we were there last in 2023. The restaurant area has been refurbished and there are now a Tepanyaki cooking area and an Italian and Japanese restaurant. The main restaurant is still in Samantha’s capable hands and he still has Saman and many of the staff that were there before assisting. The food is as delicious as it was two years ago thanks to the Exec chef and all his staff. Thank you all!! Our room was upgraded upon arrival which was very much appreciated.Nalin and Namal kept the room well stocked and immaculate. The pool guys looked after all our needs around the pool area and the sun beds were very comfortable. The chief engineer was busy setting up some new outdoor lighting to show off the trees and surf. Excellent! It was great chatting with the front desk and reception team again and discussing our“haute couture “ each evening from Chez Preston.. We highly recommend this hotel and staying on an AI basis works for us as we love our food and enjoy a drink. Thanks again to everyone, sorry that I can’t remember everyone’s name but you all made our holiday truly memorable. Hope to see everyone again soon

We had a wonderful family vacation at the Fortress. We enjoyed everything: the room, pool, beach, gym and delicious food and drinks.The place is so special and beautiful and looks like a postcard! What’s best about the hotel is the staff which was so helpful with every request. Highly recommended!

Good location to reach Galle. Beach front and pool very impressive with plenty of loungers and towel service. We used Uber to get out on a couple of occasions but the tuk tuk drivers were not happy and were very intimidating to the drivers. When out walking they were quite annoying and would not take no thank you for an answer! Hotel very quiet at the time we visited although they were unable to accommodate a room extension. Extensive menu (priced in US$) for lunch or dinner. Orders sometimes missing or not quite as requested but that could be a language issue. Service often a little slow even with plenty of waiting staff. A mention for Sasuvu who was particularly attentive to our requests. Rooms very spacious with all usual toiletries and regular linen change. Rooms did feel damp due to the humidity. Friends had a dehumidifier in their room which they needed to empty regularly.

The service was excellent, warm but not overly so. The environment is right by the sea, quiet and secluded, with a lagoon for swimming. The lagoon is full of small fish, occasionally some of them brightly colored. The infinity pool faces the southern Indian Ocean.

Wonderful location. Very clean and luxury rooms and friendliest staff. Food had a good variance and very calm ambience .

The Fortress Resort and Spa exceeded our expectations and we loved our stay there. The complex was immaculate - we had an Ocean View room on the first floor - which had a good sized deck looking over the garden, pool and ocean. We booked the breakfast which I'd highly recommend, lovely choice of fresh fruit, Sri Lankan and traditional breakfasts. We used the really well equipped gym most days and enjoyed the 50 metre pool and swims on the local beach. The service was exceptional - the staff were all really friendly and professional...they took care of all our needs and made us feel at home...thank you !!!!

We have stayed at this hotel more than six times, and every visit feels better than the last. What makes this place truly special is the outstanding hospitality from the staff—something you simply cannot find anywhere else. Restaurant Team Special appreciation goes to Mr. Samantha, Mr. Suranga, Mr. Dimuthu, Mr. Suban, Mr. Saman, Mr. Wishwa, and Mr. Irosh. Whenever they are at the restaurant, they make you feel completely at home. We have known them since 2022, and each time we visit, their warm welcome and genuine care make our stay unforgettable. Front Office & Guest Relations Miss Chamindi always greets us with a smile and incredible hospitality. She is one of the reasons we feel so valued and why we always look forward to returning. Pool & Recreation At the pool, Mr. Upul Mr. Nuwan stands out with their friendly service and guidance. His attentiveness ensures every moment by the pool is enjoyable and stress-free. Rooms & Housekeeping The rooms are spacious, very clean, and offer excellent sea views. Hats off to the housekeeping team for maintaining such a high standard. Final Thoughts This is not just a hotel—it’s a second home because of the people who work here. Their dedication, warmth, and genuine care are what make this one of the best hotels in Sri Lanka. We will definitely visit again, as it is the amazing staff who make this hotel truly exceptional.
