This is simply a perfect hideway if you are looking for peaceful spot with an ocean view rooms and professional staff who take care of all you need. Cuisine is one of the best I've had in Sri Lanka. If you need the transportation from and to the airport is provided as well.

I am truly shocked by the aggressiveness with which the two women from the staff of this hotel spoke to us when they saw us bathing on the public beach in front, they told us that we were polluting and to return to our home that we shouldn't have staying in Sri Lanka... we are people who hate pollution and love uncontaminated nature, we are definitely not the ones who leave rubbish.... I can't understand why these people thought of insulting us!!! we are truly shocked by this unjustified aggression!! not being a customer of your hotel does not give you the right to treat me badly and attack me for something I didn't do... in front of your hotel the free beach doesn't only have rocks... we weren't breaking the tree you are liars!!!

We recently had the pleasure of staying at Sielen Diva, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. The place exudes a surreal charm that instantly made us feel at ease. The serene ambiance and breathtaking scenery created a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.The staff were incredibly kind and welcoming, making every interaction feel personal and special. The food was absolutely delicious—each meal was a treat for the senses. We felt incredibly comfortable throughout our stay, with every detail thoughtfully arranged for maximum relaxation.Sielen Diva is a place we would happily visit again and again, and we highly recommend it to anyone looking for a tranquil and a beautiful getaway. A perfect retreat in every sense!

The most beautiful, professional and well located hotel. We stayed with our 18 month old baby and the staff were always so accommodating. The menu and food from breakfast to dinner is a dream… I could eat there all day! We cannot wait to return to this place! Highly recommend- don’t think twice, book for a beautiful experience by the sea in SriLanka.

Beautiful design hotel with 7 rooms, stunning sea view and excellent staff. We stayed for 3 nights and had a wonderful time, mainly enjoying the sea view from the nice pool. The service was excellent and the staff very friendly and proactive, especially in the first 2 days of our stay. The room was spacious, modern and super clean.The breakfast was delicious, the dinner (we only had dinner in the hotel on one evening) was ok. There are plenty very good dinner alternatives around.If you’re staying here, you will most likely need to pay higher prices for the transportation via Tuk Tuk if needed. The local Tuk Tuk drivers in front of the hotel gate built a monopoly and ask for prices that are 200-400% above market prices. They defend their monopoly by threatening other drivers, e.g. Uber drivers that want to enter the gate to pick up a customer. This is the only small downside of the otherwise super nice hotel. Since the hotel can’t do anything against this situation (several attempts failed according to hotel management), it still deserves a 5-star rating.
Location
The villa is located in the quiet village of Talpe, a fifteen minute drive to Galle Fort. Sielen Diva is a two-and-a-half-hour drive from Bandaranaike International Airport and about the same time from central Colombo. The villa can arrange airport transfers (at additional cost). The fastest way to reach Sielen Diva is by Air Taxi, which takes just 25 minutes from Colombo to Koggala Lake which is then a mere 25 minutes from the villa.
