Ishq Talpe is an exclusive, luxurious, beach escape in Galle
Ishq Talpe is a family owned, exclusive-use luxury villa, set on a quiet coastline in Galle. Designed by renowned Australian architect Bruce Fell-Smith in the 1990s before undergoing an extensive renovation and upgrade under the guidance of award-winning architect Philip Weeraratne, the villa takes its name from the Arabic word for love and passion. This beautiful 05-suite villa sleeps up to 14 guests and is a vision of contemporary design, tropical simplicity and oceanic hues.
Expect characteristics of colonial Dutch heritage, high ceilings, airy spaces in bedrooms and common areas, large king-sized beds for deep slumbers, and low-slung chairs by the courtyard pool for sunbathing. Therapeutic evening massages on the lawn and lazy swims are the perfect activity for taking in the gorgeous Indian Ocean sunsets. Meals feature fabulous Sri Lankan and international cuisine highlighting fresh seafood and locally grown produce, whilst the well-stocked games and movie room is an ideal hangout spot for families and children.
