Sielen Diva Villa


Description


Sielen Diva is a beautiful seven-bedroom beachfront Sri Lanka Villa sleeping up to 14 people. The home features a private swimming pool and all the amenities of a luxury boutique hotel. Sielen Diva Villa has one of the best locations on the south-west coast of Sri Lanka on Mihirpena Beach. The Villa is in the village of Talpe and close to the town of Galle. Mihirpena beach is a virtually private beach. Directly in front of Sielendiva is a picturesque outcrop of rock which adds to the wild natural beauty of the area. There is a small rock pool where it is possible to cool down, and a short 100-meter walk brings you to a spot suitable for swimming. A further kilometer along the beach is a beautiful and perfectly calm swimming area which is protected by a reef. Here the waters are crystal clear and aquamarine.

Each of the seven bedrooms is incredibly spacious with floor to ceiling windows overlooking the ocean. They are more or less equal in size and standard making Sielen Diva Villa an ideal choice for a corporate retreat or a group of adults wishing to have a serene and peaceful tropical paradise getaway. Beautifully decorated contemporary guest rooms are offset with unique pieces of art. The en-suite bathrooms are both luxurious and spacious. The owners have lovingly collected each of the art pieces. As a tribute to the beautiful wildlife in Sri Lanka, each room is uniquely named after Sri Lankan animals.

The main living area has its location in the centre of the Villa. It is open on both sides with breathtaking sea views on one side and tropical garden views on the other. This open-sided living area allows a cooling breeze to circulate throughout the room, negating the need for air-conditioning. Folding glass doors are available should you wish to have a break from the elements. There are several different sitting areas in the Villa, so guests can enjoy space to read a book, play board games, relax over a cocktail or chat with friends and loved ones.

Exquisite art pieces complement comfortable sofas and chairs in bright tropical colours of blues and greens. The villas seventeen-foot-long 14 seater dining table has its location in the living area. It is a lovely piece of furniture crafted from one single piece of wood.

Sielen Diva has a wonderfully equipped games room called Baba's Den. Baba is the name of the owner’s youngest daughter. Equipment includes a foosball table, pool table, darts board, poker set, television, DVD player and a book library. There is a badminton net located outside the games room for matches on the grass.

The living room leads directly onto the sun and pool deck. A sleek 17-meter pool blends wonderfully well with the contemporary design of Villa Sielen Diva. Colourful sun loungers surround the pool. The pool is perfect for an energetic swim or a languid float. Additional casual alfresco outdoor dining areas flank either side of the pool. These are perfect for enjoying drinks or snacks during the day. The view from the pool deck is breathtaking. Guests love to spend time here enjoying breakfasts, long lunches and dinner while watching the sea lap on the beach and the fishermen on stilts.

One level below the pool deck is the location for the vast lawn which rolls down to the beach. The grounds are extensive with plenty of private spots for guests to enjoy the Sri Lankan sunshine. The front lawn is large enough for a quiet stroll, a friendly game of football or some touch rugby. Also, there is a 1000 square foot rooftop terrace with additional seating and sunbathing spots. The rooftop terrace is a beautiful place to enjoy a Sri Lankan sunset while enjoying a refreshing cocktail or glass of champagne. The lower garden area has direct access to the beach.

Additional facilities include in-house spa treatments and complimentary Wi-Fi. Sielen Diva is truly a very special place. We highly recommend the Villa to anyone who loves a high level of luxury together with natural beauty, great food, and peace and serenity.

For larger groups of up to 24 guests, it is possible to also rent the equally stunning four-bedroomed Cloisters Villa located next door. These villas can be rented together or seperately.

No matter the origin of the cuisine, the food is always prepared with the best and freshest local produce, fish caught in the local seas and herbs picked from the garden. Barbeques overlooking the ocean are one of the Villa's highlights.
