(269)

Our small, luxury hotel sits at the water’s edge with 17 suites and an 18 mt. We dreamed of a simple, fun and unpretentious place... with a sense of romance, food and dancing in the moonlight...

All OTP hotel rooms have been laid out as flexible spaces with generous balconies and terraces overlooking the wild and the wonderful Indian Ocean. Every detail is lovingly restored and crafted by hand. The place is tranquil, but social too. The Runcible Spoon is a little restaurant, on an elegant dining terrace with superb wines and fresh food - including Sri Lankan specialities-. Our flamboyant pastry chef will see to it that you have sweet dreams. At our vibrant beach shack, you can enjoy delicately spiced cocktails next to the waves, tropical birdsongs from the trees and live jazz on weekends. This space can also be booked for private or special events. We also have a seaside bar and a café. There is a beautifully decorated, elegant "Edward Lear Drawing room" for hotel guests only and is perfect for relaxing and enjoying a pre-dinner cocktail or after-dinner drink. We have a small fitness room and a library with a TV. Our caring staff will arrange cars, airport transfers and local sight-seeings, looking after you to make your trip super special. The main highlight in our garden is a fabulous, turquoise 18m swimming pool that spills onto the ocean. In addition, a therapy hut offers no-frills seaside massages. A yoga platform for early sun salutes converts in the evenings to an outdoor living space with sofas and candles. When needed, this space morphs into a wonderful dance floor…
”Hand in hand, on the edge of the sand...They danced by the light of the moon.”

Some places deserve more than one point of view.

Look closer and there’s art in the details. Look across and lunch has arrived. Look up and the palms are moving. Look out and there’s the Indian Ocean.
And somehow, every angle has something going on.

Maybe the best part of going somewhere new is everything you didn’t plan for.

A little more sun than usual.
A little less time on your phone.
Strangers who don’t feel like strangers for long.
Something new on your plate.

You leave home for a change of view.
Sometimes, you come back a little changed too.

That’s the point.

48 hours by the sea.

Long enough to forget what day it is.
Long enough for lunch to turn into afternoon.
Long enough to watch the sky change twice.
Long enough to find a favourite corner.

Not quite long enough to want to leave.
Your weekend in Talpe is waiting.

Maybe that’s why we keep coming back to it.

To sit a little longer, breathe a little deeper, and remember that not everything needs our attention right now.
The sea is right here when you need it.

Consider this your sign to go where the sun is warm, the sea is close, and everything else can wait for a while.
Sometimes a change of scenery is enough.

Find your little bit of sun at OTP Hotel, Talpe. ☀️

It’s the little things that stay with you.

A meal that deserves more than “wonderful”, a birthday surprise you weren’t expecting, the familiar words of a childhood poem woven into the spaces around you, and a team that knows when to be there and when to let the sea have your attention.

Thank you, Tharinda, for spending your time by the sea with us and for leaving such kind words behind. We hope the waves bring you back to Talpe someday. 🌊

Current mood: somewhere between one more song and one more swim.No plans to change it anytime soon.

The guest list will change. The flowers will come down. The cake will disappear much faster than expected.

But years from now, you’ll still remember where everyone sat, what the sea looked like that evening, who stayed on the dance floor the longest, and how it felt to have all your favourite people in one place.

Choose somewhere worth remembering.
Celebrate your next chapter with us at OTP Hotel, Talpe.
