Sielen Diva
Mihiripenna, Sri Lanka

Sielen Diva has just seven bedrooms, all looking towards the Indian Ocean through large windows. Its modern architecture opens onto an infinity pool, beach lawn and shared living spaces, with a rooftop deck for sunset and a games room for quieter hours indoors. Meals are prepared at the property, and the grounds are reserved for resident guests. The result is a particularly intimate alternative to a larger beach hotel, suited to travellers who value space and a small-house atmosphere.
