Just a 2-minute walk from the stunning sandy beach, the bungalow resort is nestled in a well-maintained garden spanning approximately 7,000 square metres. The architecture of each building is stylish and structured, while the surrounding vegetation exudes tranquillity and carefreeness. In about 2-3 minutes on foot, or by tuk-tuk upon request, you can reach the hotel's private beach property. This offers you the opportunity to relax by the sea between your Ayurveda treatments and listen to the soothing sounds of the ocean waves.

In the southwest of Sri Lanka, about 9 miles south of Bentota, lies the small town of Balapitiya, which is especially known for its palm-fringed, fine sandy beach. This is considered one of the most beautiful beaches in Sri Lanka.

The number of treatments may vary depending on your health condition, and additional treatments may be prescribed by the Ayurvedic doctor if needed. Some treatments can also be enjoyed outdoors, such as head and foot massages or the final floral bath. According to Ayurvedic teachings, yoga and meditation enhance the success of your therapy. Yoga and meditation sessions are held on the covered rooftop terrace. Beauty treatments can be booked on site.
In the beautifully landscaped garden, the outdoor pool, sun loungers, and parasols ensure a soothing slowdown. Cosmetic and beauty treatments can be booked on site. The palm-fringed, fine sandy beach is perfect for walks, for example, at sunset, and depending on the weather, for swimming.

The resort is beautiful and close to the beach. I wouldn't describe my first Ayurveda retreat as just beautiful. Certain aspects were a bit of a challenge. However, after a few days of getting used to it, we ultimately had a great time and came back from Sri Lanka feeling very refreshed.

The weather was very changeable, but nobody could help it. The resort and the service were great. I had a very good rest. The beach area could be just as well maintained as the resort. There is still some catching up to do. There could be more exercise programs, such as aqua aerobics.
