Frangipani Tree
Sister Hotel to Galle’s Fort Printers, Frangipani Tree is a Geoffrey Bawa inspired elegant but minimalist beachfront resort in Thalpe, a secluded and quiet beach location a short distance from Galle fort.
Just 10 very modern Suites are located in separate villas. Named after the different species of turtle which visit the beach, Frangipani Trees’ Suites are deliberately sparingly furnished and feature private terraces and four-poster beds.
The minimalist design and polished concrete interiors are quite a change from most of the heritage inspired boutique hotels in this part of Sri Lanka and will suit those looking for something more contemporary in style.
Frangipani Tree also benefits from peaceful and shaded gardens, ideal for chilling-out.
The resort has a decently sized pool, deliberately long (35 m) and thin to please swimmers. The surf beach can be a little rough for swimming so the long pool is a well-considered feature.
The property is the sister venture from the folks at the Fort Printers in Galle, who have gained an excellent reputation of the last couple of years and a property that receives great feedback from our clients.
What’s so Special?
Calm and tranquil, Frangipani Tree offers a picture perfect Sri Lankan beachfront escape – complete with stilt-fishermen!
The staff receive particularly good feedback for their welcoming, professional but informal approach, which fits the style of the hotel perfectly.
The sound of the waves crashing on the beach. The tennis court is quite a feature for such a small hotel.
Bear in mind
No in-room tv’s, phone or DVD players (or minibar). There is a communal room however with TV, DVD and plenty of books.
There are no restaurants within walking distance, but a short tuk-tuk ride offers plenty of options in Galle. Vijaya Beach Club just 5 minutes away is a popular spot for lunch.
Suites
Suites are named in honour of the different species of Sea Turtle which visit the beach (and which can sometimes be seen in the surf).
Spacious, high-ceilinged Suites are characterised by polished concrete walls, four-poster beds and private verandahs in most rooms.
Rooms are deliberately sparsely furnished, with just a bed, cushioned lounger and a small desk.
There are 5 Olive Ridley Suites, two of which (Olive Ridley 1 and 2) face the gardens and three offering great ocean views (Olive Ridley 3,4 & 5).
Most rooms feature outdoor bathrooms.
Dining
The cuisine is quite eclectic and offers something a bit of a cut above the average.
Meals can be served on your Suite Terrace.
Dinner receives especially good reviews and guests are encouraged to speak to the staff about the menu, as the hotel is small enough to cater to guests preferences before they do the morning market visit.
