We recently had the pleasure of staying at Sielen Diva and it was nothing short of perfection. From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the hotel’s stunning architecture and elegant design. The culinary experience was exceptional—undoubtedly the best I’ve ever had. The chef’s creations were a masterpiece of flavors, using fresh and locally sourced ingredients that elevated every meal. Whether it was breakfast by the beach or a gourmet dinner under the stars, every bite was unforgettable. The hotel was impeccably clean, with beautifully maintained rooms and pristine public spaces. The beach was another highlight— huge waves and beautiful turtles. Above all, the staff made this experience truly outstanding. Their warm hospitality, attention to detail, and willingness to go above and beyond ensured that every moment was by special. If you’re looking for a luxurious getaway with world-class dining, breathtaking scenery, and exceptional service, it is the place to be. I can’t wait to return!

The location was perfect! Away from the hustle & bustle area, but close enough to easily reach. A breathtaking view from the balcony. The room was so breezy & everything felt very well thought through. High quality furniture & linens. An AMAZING shower & THE BEST team working. They even gave a farewell gift! Highly recommended!

What great accomodation. Right on the beach front, the pictures don’t do the place justice. Aircon worked a treat. The balcony was so lovely sitting out watching the sunset. Was much more private than we though when sleeping two couples. Split living areas which was awesome. Our host Romesha was so helpful and the team downstairs at the diving school and bar to the right of the building were so helpful, with food, drinks and sun beds available. Highly recommend.

Villa Ishq is a wonderfully luxurious villa set on a beachfront location in Talpe on the southern coast of Sri Lanka. The 5 bedroom suites are very well appointed and the bathrooms are huge and beautifully designed. What sets Villa Ishq above others is the staff. Led by the villa manager Nimal the staff are both many in number and super attentive. The cuisine is superb with all the local curries cooked fresh every day. We could order almost anything which was sourced locally and cooked to perfection. We had a most wonderful time! Many thanks for hosting us!

The room was wonderfully furnished with a beautiful bathroom with hot water. Amazing price due to it being Low Season. Right on the Beachfront and the restaurant food was really good. The bed was super comfortable which earns a big tick from me. Close to all manner of shops and restaurants and ATMs. Staff were wonderful and happy to assist with all my needs. Room was very clean. Tea kettle and cups and glasses supplied.

What a wonderful location right on the beachfront. Staff were very friendly and accommodating. We enjoyed having dinner and breakfast on the balcony of our Cabana overlooking the waves. Wifi and air conditioner worked well. Turtle beach is nearby - we saw one turtle while swimming out the front!

Remarkable location right on the beach/seafront. Our room is Beachfront Cabanas where we fall asleep & wake up to sound of roaring seas! Short walk to bay with swimming turtles near Frog Rock! Wonderful breakfast at terrace of our Cabanas just next to the sea!

We absolutely loved the location. Right on the beachfront and central of the small town with lots of restaurants and shops. Kevin in particular was an absolute star, went above and beyond - cobstantly smiling, welcoming and all the staff couldn't do enough for us. Kiki was our favourite furry friend. The free shuttle to use the pool at the sister Hotel was really great and an added bonus. Would definitely recommend staying here.

Our recent stay at Tartaruga was nothing short of delightful. Despite opting for the budget room, we were pleasantly surprised by the value it offered. The room was clean, comfortable, and equipped with everything we needed for a cozy stay. Located right on the beachfront, the property's location couldn't be more convenient. The staff members were friendly, attentive, and always ready to assist with any queries or requests I had.

Location is very good, isolated beach only for hotel guests. Food and Services were out of this world, really excellent. Rooms were excellent, very big with ocean view, huge bathroom. Room boy Thusahara gave his best to have all we need in our room. One can walk on the beach and reach in 10 m several surf schools. and is 3km away from Galle Fort, Tuktuks being available in front of hotel. 25mins walk from Jungle beach (excellent secluded beach) or Peace Pagoda, worth to visit for magnificent views

The property is located right on the beach, with great views of the ocean. The room and bathroom had large glass windows to enjoy the view. However, general upkeep of this building is needed. The dining section is small with outdated furniture. The pool is pretty much a part of the lobby, meaning laying in the loungers is visible to guests checking in (pro for checking in, but con for laying by the pool).
