About The Colonial Escape

Hidden along Asoka Mawatha in Madawalamulla, a residential lane a short tuk-tuk ride from Galle Fort's ramparts, The Colonial Escape pairs a garden setting with an outdoor pool overlooking coconut palms — a quiet base for travellers who want the Fort's cafes and antique shops without the tourist crowds inside its walls.

Rooms open onto private terraces with garden views; breakfast can be taken in-room or beachside on request. A cooking class and walking tours introduce guests to Galle's Dutch-colonial layout, while airport shuttle and car rental cover the two-hour run from Colombo.
