Leijay resort is only about 10 minutes by tut tut from the centre of Galle, but when relaxing in the beautiful garden you could be a million miles away. My wife and I recently spent a week with Yvonne and her dedicated staff and we still don't exactly know where the property is, as the guys looked after our every... More

Sometimes its hard to encapulate what makes a place as special as Leijay, yes the setting is beautiful, swimming pool just lovely, rooms comfortable, food great (must try the rice and curry!!), but for us this little resort has an amazingly peaceful energy created by the wonderful Yvonne and her team. She has managed to create an ethically inspired community... More

We recently spent 5 nights at Leijay and what a wonderful time we had. Set in a beautiful garden with a large, crystal clean pool Leijay offers a peaceful, relaxing spot tucked away from Galle's hustle and bustle. Rooms are spacious, very clean and well furnished. Our family of 4 had 2 adjoining rooms with a secret passageway between that... More

We had a very, very lovely 3 day stay in this tropical garden with an absolutely gorgeous pool and a lovely staff, only a few kilometers away from Galle by tuk-tuk. The whole crew is very attentive to your needs and Yvonne a wonderful hostess. A definitely relaxing atmosphere to indulge in, a pause to consider during a busy trip... More

We came back from Leijay Resort on Tuesday and felt we had to express our delight with our holiday there. We went to Leijay from 10 days in a forgettable hotel in Kogalla and the difference was amazing. The friendly, helpful service could not have been bettered. It is truly beautiful with a magnificent tropical garden and a most inviting... More

What a wonderful place! For me Leijay is like a second home, the friendly hospitality, a beautiful tropical garden with many birds and colorful flowers, a lot of quiet places and a great swimming pool. The spacious rooms are comfortable. But most important, Yvonne and her staff are so open, helpful and friendly which makes it hard to say good... More

Yvonne and her team made sure that everything was easy and comfortable for us, from the (very) late pick up at the airport, the tastily furnished room(s) and the many tips and contacts she took the time to give us for our stay in Galle and Sri Lanka ! The resort is at a quiet place, and we enjoyed watching... More

We recently spent our Christmas holidays at Leijay Resort. During 3 weeks we enjoyed being able to relax in a paradise-like environment. Leijay Resort is quiet, beautiful and cosy. The tropical garden is gorgeous: exceptional flowers and exotic fruit trees. The large swimming pool was the best attraction for our children and we were happy to be able to chill... More

Three very happy days here in this quiet little oasis. Beautiful well maintained gardens surrounding an immaculate swimming pool. Yvonne is the perfect hostess, and her team of 5 helpers were astonishingly friendly and helpful. For such a small establishment, the menu has to be somewhat limited, but whatever is served is delicious and well presented. With a bit of... More
