A beachfront boutique villa on the golden sands of Kahandamodara, Tangalle — where every sunrise and sunset melts into the Indian Ocean.
About Serendivi
Escape the confinement of a restless, fast-paced city and whisk yourself away to Serendivi — a truly serene space nestled between the pristine, golden beach of Kahandamodara and shady coconut groves, where you can witness every sunset melt into the turquoise waters and become one with nature and yourself.
Serendivi is a beachfront bespoke property on Sri Lanka's south coast, designed in tasteful post-modern architecture. Its column-less construction was a deliberate design choice so nothing obstructs the panoramic views of the Indian Ocean — the architecture lets you enjoy unhindered views in every direction. The villa combines the facilities of a resort with the cosy, familiar nature of a modern villa.
The name "Serendivi" means "a place that one happens to come across during a journey and falls hopelessly in love with."
Sunrise & sunset

As the villa puts it: "Head into your shower area for a pleasantly surprising view of the Indian Ocean, where you can witness the sun rise in the horizon as you sink in to a warm bath."
Fabulous views of the Indian Ocean and coconut plantations.

Guest Reviews
Gorgeous small beachfront boutique hotel, with only 6 rooms. Impressive rooms with state of the art bathrooms. Particularly lovely pool. Wonderful friendly staff. A perfect base for quiet relaxation. Highly recommended.
A stunning and spacious villa located at the edge of Tangalle, offering direct access to an unspoiled, expansive stretch of beach that remains blissfully uncrowded. We stayed for two nights with our pet dog, and the level of service and attentiveness we received was exceptional… The food, especially the seafood, was incredibly fresh and made to order.
Brilliant staff especially Fareese and the 2 chefs. So attentive. The food was divine. Fantastic room and views and the pool is amazing. Free bikes and kayaks. The beach was stunning and we had it to ourselves. One of the best places you could ever stay.
Our stay in Serendivi was absolutely perfect! The place is incredibly beautiful, a modernly decorated villa with a pool right in front of the ocean. … The place has a chef that cooks the meals for you upon request, the price is reasonable (only breakfast was included) and the food is great!
Great Hotel with an amazing service and delicious food. We wanted to stay for three nights, ended up staying for 7. If you want to relax and enjoy a peaceful stay, I can definitely recommend this place.
Everything was just amazing! My partner and I were the only guests for 4 days. We got the half-board package which included breakfast and dinner. We are vegan and the chef accommodated us very easily — and the food was amazing! The room view is stunning. The shower is really good. The bed is super comfortable.
Had a fantastic time with my family, the place was spectacular. Brand New, extremely clean, very friend and helpful staff. The owner was in direct contact with us from the moment we made the reservation and he made sure everything was just amazing..
Had the most amazing time at @serendiviresort 😍 it's the perfect getaway for a group of friends to enjoy a private weekend on the beach with activities like beach buggy rides, volleyball, badminton and many more to enjoy during the day!
@serendiviresort the perfect villa to head over with family or friends. Private beach, activities and amazing food to indulge your weekend in 🙌🏼
Enjoyed our time at Serendivi Resort Villa. I loved seeing the fisherman hauling nets in with lots of fresh fish and lobster, which the chef prepared for lunch! Also enjoyed riding a quad bike along the beach. To see the beautiful sunrise and sunset was a wonderful experience.
We had an amazing time during our stay. The rooms were super cozy, and the food at every meal was simply delicious! … Riding a quad bike on the beach, playing badminton, bike rides and a cool dip in the pool overlooking the ocean to top it all off.
This property is one of the best in Sri Lanka. Nestled in a lovely beach setting, with the most breathtaking room views of a clear ocean. The beach in front of the property is clean and just lovely.
Very nice and charming place to visit. Well maintained garden. Absolutely magnificent place with excellent rooms, beautiful view and great service.
This property is so serene and calming. It is located right in front of a beach where you can catch the sunrise, sunset and fishermen early in the mornings.
Of all places visited, this is easily the best! Family-friendly · Thoughtful amenities · Spacious rooms
One of the first places we had come across with both sort of a getaway from all the commercial hotels. Staff is awesome and we were well greeted. Food was super awesome, no doubt about that.
