Direct beach access: the ocean in front of the villa is often too rough for swimming, but a short walk along the beach would lead you to a safer reef-protected lagoon. You can also grab a tuk-tuk to the main Unawatuna Beach, which is about 10 minutes away from the Villa.
CLOSEST BEACH: This property is beachfront (Talpe Beach).
CLOSEST SURFING BEACH: The closest surfing beach is in Unawatuna beach, approximately a 5-10 tuk-tuk ride.
CLOSEST SEASONALLY SAFE SWIMMABLE BEACH: Dalawella beach (Wijaya) (10 minutes walk).
The beach villa in Talpe, Galle is located directly on the beach in Unawatuna on the southern coast of Sri Lanka.

“We came down over the Easter holidays and couldn’t have chosen better. The villa’s ideal for a family with young kids—clean, secure, and steps from a quiet beach where they could run around safely. The small pool was just right for our little ones, and the beach nearby was safe for splashing about. We also appreciated thoughtful touches like the high chair and baby cot, which made travelling as a family so much easier. The chef prepared simple, delicious meals the kids actually ate (which says a lot!), and the housekeeper kept everything spotless. If you’re considering a hotel—don’t. This beach villa gives you space, comfort, and calm, with proper Sri Lankan hospitality.”
Family with Teens, Whale Watching – ★★★★★ – Date of stay: February 2025
We had a brilliant time here in February. The villa itself is well laid out and very family-friendly—perfect for our family of four with teens. The beach is literally at the end of the garden, and a short walk for swimming.
A highlight of the trip was a whale-watching tour in Mirissa, organised by Vin, which was just incredible—well coordinated, and the kids loved it. Back at the villa, everything ran smoothly thanks to the warm and attentive staff. Having an in-house chef was a massive bonus. Highly recommend this place if you want a relaxing beach villa near Galle with excellent local support”
Stylish Friends from Singapore – ★★★★★ – Date of stay: New Year 2025
“Rang in the New Year at this gorgeous beachfront villa and it was just wow. Perfectly located—peaceful but still close enough to Galle if you want a bit of buzz. The villa’s design is super tasteful, and the chef’s food was next level.
It’s ideal for a smaller group—we were two couples and had loads of space. The pool may be compact, but honestly, we were straight on the sand most of the time anyway. The vibe is low-key luxury, and the staff were super kind and professional. We’ll definitely be back. Already missing those sunset drinks on the terrace.”
Laid-back Couple from the UK – ★★★★★ – Date of stay: Christmas 2024
“We booked this little beach villa in Talpe for a warm Christmas getaway and it completely exceeded expectations. It’s quiet, tasteful, and full of charm. We loved having our own private chef—it took all the stress out of the holidays.
Mornings were for beach walks, evenings for dinners on the verandah, and the rest of the time we just relaxed with a book or a glass of wine. The beach here is calm and wide, and though the sea isn’t ideal for swimming directly in front, there’s a lovely swimmable stretch nearby that we walked to each day.
We honestly couldn’t have picked a better way to escape the cold back home.”
Stayed in April 2022
“The Villa is an open-plan house. The open living room opens onto the patio and pool area. There is a bedroom on the ground floor. Another bedroom is upstairs. The garden is big and leads directly to the sandy beach. A swimming section is a few hundred meters away. The service is great. There is also a staff member who helps and supports around the clock in the building (side apartment). Also, a cook prepares food on request. Great service.”
