Your room is located in one of the two Tropical Garden Holiday Homes offering accommodation in the privacy of a large garden directly on an exquisite beach. The room is on the ground floor and is accessible from the large terrace with the beautiful view of the green garden. A fully equipped shared kitchen is available right next to your room. The garden offers a fabulous environment for relaxation for which you can freely use our sunbeds and hammocks. Your double room with a separate entrance from the terrace and a view of the garden is located in the ground floor. The seating arrangement for two can be separated from the rest of the terrace by a folding screen to bestow a sense of privacy. The room is equipped with a double bed (170 cm) protected by an indispensable mosquito net (a sleeper barrier protection against bites from mosquitos). A ceiling fan to cool the room down to a pleasant temperature is a matter of course. Small belongings can be stored on bedside tables, clothes will find their place in open shelves or on hangers. The double room has its bathroom with a shower, toilet and a bidet shower. You can use your private room as well as the terrace, the shared kitchen and the garden including the outside shower and bathroom. Our guests and their comfort are taken care of directly on the site by Anke, our German friend who lives with her husband next door to Tropical Garden. She speaks English and German. Our holiday homes are located in a large tropical garden. Take one step out of the gate and you will find yourselves directly on the endless Madilla Beach lending itself to long strolls, sunbathing, shelling and, of course, bathing and swimming. What needs to be born in mind is that the southern coast of the island is washed by the Indian Ocean. Thus the water is rough. Swimming right in front of Tropical Garden is dangerous because of strong undercurrents. However, just a couple of minutes’ walk on the beach or the adjacent road will take you to safe spots. There you can enjoy bathing without any worries. We recommend the spots protected by breakwaters not more than a 10-15 minutes’ walk on the beach or the road (from Tropical Garden in the direction of the town). In the opposite direction, you can find a beautiful and safe spot in a small bay. Delightful and safe bathing can be enjoyed on nearby Goyambokka, Pallikudawa Beaches, Silent Beach, Rekawa Beach and others. All of them are reachable by tuk-tuk within a couple of minutes We reside in an exceptionally quiet neighbourhood at the very end of a coast road which will take you to the city. After a nice walk or a short tuk-tuk ride, you will find there everything you need: from stalls and bistros selling local snacks, through the fruit and vegetables market, clothes and gift stores, to banks, ATMs and “western-style” supermarkets. In the closest vicinity of Tropical Garden, there are several smaller resorts and restaurants, all of which can be strongly recommended. In return for a fee, swimming pools can be used in the neighbouring resorts. The bus station is located in the centre of Tangalle in a walking distance from Tropical Garden . The most popular transport for tourists is taxi however. Renting a car without driver is not very common in Sri Lanka but taxis (vans with driver/guide for more people) is not expensive. We can arrange a driver on your request. In Tangalle you can use tuk-tuks (motorised three-wheelers) or rent a motorbike. Tropical Garden was chosen and developed to be a holiday home for our family and friends. We always try our best and endeavour to make our guests feel at home at Tropical Garden. And that is why we offer everything you need for a peacefull holiday. Our fully equipped kitchen will be appreciated by both passionate cooks, and those who will use the fridges just to cool some fruit juice or local beer. Drinking water and, of course, WiFi connection is available 24/7 for all in-house guests. The cleaning service including changing of towels and bed sheets is done after three days and you can also ask Anke for laundry service (charged service, the price list on the spot). We are at a convenient distance from the city that can be easily walked or covered in a couple of minutes by tuk-tuk to do groceries in a local market or a “western-style” supermarket, to withdraw cash from an ATM and so on. We have nice neighbours and loads of great restaurants all around us, but no huge hotel resorts.
