When You Are the Only Guest at a 5 Star Boutique Hotel

As I shared in some of my early articles we got married on the 26th of April. We got a rare opportunity from one of Harith's cousins. I will tell you why this is so special soon.

Probebly you have probably heard about this hotel built during Dutch Colonial period. Tamarind Hill Galle is a luxury five-star hotel that was built about 250 years ago. As per the resources, it was the home of a Dutch army Admiral and a Captain and their families. This hotel is now modernized while preserving its ancient architectural masterpieces including ornaments and furniture.

This hotel has 10 rooms plus two suits called Admiral and Captain. The suits are exactly where the Dutch Admiral and Captain lived.

The hotel Tamarind Hill is located on a slight mountain which has great natural beauty. It looks like a mansion. At the lobby, we were served a delicious welcome drink made of Tamarind. It is really refreshing!

This is the moment we heard the good news that we are the only guests for the day at the hotel. These days they are taking reservations only based on special requests. So we were lucky to enjoy the whole space alone for the day.

And the best thing is we received Admiral suit the best and the largest suit they own. Yay!!!

Admiral suit is located on an upper floor and the floor is fully done by wood. I was a little afraid to walk on the floor because it makes a wood sound while walking. But it brings you to eras back.

The suit was crazily large. It had a huge living room, a long bathroom with a bathtub and two sinks, big bedroom with a king-size bed and other beds, tv, a large mirror, a dressing table, and some ancient almirahs, and two verandas with furniture. One had a dining table with six chairs and the other side had two large tables and a seating area. The suit was crazily classy.

The living room had some old ceramic pots and metal pots as ornaments. Also, there were various pictures hung on the walls. The sofa was super comfy. Also, there were old kind storage boxes (Pettagam) and a book cupboard with some very old books.

Sometimes it is scary because when walking on the wood floor some furniture moves automatically due to the force made by the wood. It gave me the feeling of ghosts but there were no ghosts at all.

_{Oh the Admiral}

The suit was amazing and not only that the service and food were amazing too. I will share about that with my next article.
