Sun, Surf, Yoga, Ayurveda, SAFARI.
After having the most beautiful time in Ahangama hosting our first retreat in Sri Lanka this year, it was a total no-brainer to return to this magical island in 2026.
March is the perfect time too, as the combination of daily yoga practices, local exploring, unreal food, grounding Ayurveda rituals, and of course, getting away from daily chores and responsibilities is the perfect antidote to a long winter.
SO MARCH 2026..
Our retreat home is S-T-U-N-N-I-N-G. Tucked away in a tranquil jungle sanctuary in Dikwella in southern Sri Lanka, but only 10 minutes away from the golden shores of the vibrant beach town, Hiriketiya, it has the best of both worlds. You can decide on the day what vibe best suits your mood.
Our full itinerary is there for you to dip in and out of, so you can either go all-in on the yoga, safari and cultural experiences, or opt out and gift yourself with as much free time for solo exploring as you want.
Our Sri Lankan home
Our Retreat home is set on a hillside behind the beautiful Hiriketiya Bay and nestled within four acres of tropical jungle. From the moment you arrive, nature holds you close with forest paths that begin right at our doorstep, inviting slow morning walks beneath the canopy.
The estate has its own organic cinnamon & banana plantation, fruit trees and organic vegetable garden, providing hyperlocal and fresh ingredients you’ll taste in the daily meals we’ll share together.
Wildlife surrounds us here, monkeys in the trees, birdsong and chirping cicadas, and from our open yoga shala we have access to sun-drenched terraces and a 60 sqm infinity pool, all with views that stretch to the Indian Ocean.
There’s space to gather, space to unwind and space to simply be. We can also enjoy the luxury of two large ice baths for cold plunge rituals, a sundeck for daily Vitamin D dosing, two open dining areas and countless quiet corners for quiet reflection or reading.
Accommodation is thoughtful and earthy featuring three twin rooms, one triple and one single-occupancy room, all with beautiful outdoor bathrooms so you can shower beneath the stars and reconnect to the elements.
The location
Our retreat home is 2.5-3hour taxi ride from Colombo airport and just 10 minutes tuktuk ride from the vibrant surfing town, Hiriketiya Beach. This stunning horseshoe coastline is full of life, from trendy hang out cafe spots, restaurants, beach bars and surf schools.
Being set back from Hiriketiya in a sleepy rural village, means you have the best of both worlds - peace or a bustling atmosphere.

Meet your retreat host
“Travelling and hosting a retreat in Sri Lanka this year was an absolute dream. What a beautiful country! The food was unreal, the favours and the spices we’re just perfection and the climate was exactly what my soul was craving after such a long, grey Winter. There was so much to do, explore and experience, and being able to share Ayurveda practices in a place where it is still such an integral part of life, was magical. Coming back in 2026 is a no-brainer. I cannot wait to get back.”
