Experience authentic Ayurveda at the newly renovated and rebranded Roman Life Ayurveda Resort, situated directly on the beach. Here, you have the opportunity to unwind and focus entirely on yourself.
The Roman Life Ayurveda Resort, under new management, is located directly by the sea on the southwest coast of Sri Lanka, in the traditional fishing village of Talpitiya near Wadduwa. In 2022, the Ayurveda resort was taken over by the owner of the sister hotel, Roman Lake Ayurveda Resort, and subsequently underwent extensive and loving renovations. After comprehensive refurbishment, including the pool, rooms, and kitchen, the renowned resort now shines in new splendour and has been welcoming Ayurveda guests and their companions with open arms since February 2023.
Talapitya is a quaint, idyllic location in Sri Lanka, renowned for its tranquil rural setting and natural beauty. Surrounded by lush rice fields, palm groves, and dense vegetation, Talapitya offers a peaceful and restorative atmosphere, far removed from the hustle and bustle of city life. The region is deeply influenced by traditional Sri Lankan culture, reflected in local customs and architecture. Here, visitors can experience authentic country living, nestled in a picturesque landscape perfect for relaxation and unwinding.
Enjoy the Ayurvedic cuisine in the intimate restaurant adorned with wood panelling. Depending on the hotel's occupancy and the season, meals suitable for your doshas are either served at your table or presented buffet-style. Signs at the buffet dishes indicate which foods are appropriate for your dosha. Should you have any questions, an Ayurveda doctor or the hotel staff will be happy to assist. The tea corner by the pool is a perfect spot for relaxation and unwinding.
In nine treatment rooms, a team of two Ayurveda doctors and several experienced Ayurveda therapists ensure the well-being of guests. The herbal bath area, designed in granite look with a babbling brook, provides relaxing moments. Daily yoga sessions complement the therapy. German translation during consultations is available upon request.
The elaborately redesigned infinity outdoor pool with Jacuzzi bench, the hydrotherapy pool, and the garden, with loungers under shade-providing palms, invite you to relax. The resort offers direct access to the beach, which is ideal for extended walks. Swimming is possible depending on the season and weather. The Roman Life team is happy to assist you with planning excursions.
The resort boasts a total of 21 stylish rooms, all fully furnished with new, high-quality furniture. 19 of the rooms are located in the main building and some offer partial sea views, while two more luxurious rooms are situated in the pool house. Wi-Fi is available in the rooms and public areas.

It was my second Ayurveda retreat. With the location directly on a beach that is mainly used for fishing, there was the necessary peace and quiet away from mass tourism. The facility itself is lovingly designed and suitable for the number of guests. The whole team, doctors, kitchen staff, housekeeping and other service staff, created a family atmosphere, which I found very pleasant and courteous. I felt well looked after and in good hands. The food at the small buffet was always freshly prepared, varied and tasted delicious. My massage therapist Sujeewa did a really good job, as did the yoga teacher Pradeep. He conveyed the holistic approach of yoga by explaining the meaning and purpose of yoga, meditation and other information about yoga practice in addition to the classic yoga exercises.

The ambience is fantastically beautiful. Everyone is incredibly nice and tries to anticipate your every wish. If a cockroach or frog gets into the room, it is dealt with and removed immediately. However, the heat in combination with the high humidity caused me some circulatory problems. The meals are very tasty and if something was not at the buffet, it was provided on request. Everything was great.

Small and very personally managed resort, mainly German guests, as the doctor and staff speak German. Good buffet food, aqua aerobics, yoga and meditation. Various evening events. A perfectly coordinated overall package. The 14-day Panchama healing therapy was very good. location by the sea with beach, but too strong a current for swimming. Sufficiently large pool with a view of the sea and shaded area. Brilliant!
