WELLNESS PROGRAMMES
FACILITIES
The retreat is simple and peaceful with the Yoga Shala overlooking the lush treetops. The expansive space is used for yoga classes, group healing and dance and music workshops. The swimming pool is tastefully framed by palm trees while soft golden sand and the energetic waves of the Indian Ocean make a dramatic backdrop for your place of retreat. In order to allow your mind to truly disconnect, Wi-Fi is only available in common areas - 1 hour at breakfast time at dinner time.
​
Restaurants
​
Enjoy Ayurvedic meals with home-style Sri Lankan influence prepared by a local chef with fresh, seasonal ingredients and spices bought from the local market and served buffet-style at a communal dining table. The menu is mainly vegetarian with occasional locally sourced fish and tailored accordingly with Ayurvedic principles.
Spa
​
There aren’t any spa facilities as such. All the Ayurvedic treatments take place in the treatment rooms and all begin with a personalised programme from the in-house Ayurvedic doctor to determine your treatment plan.
​
Good to know
The current is too strong to swim directly on our doorstep, but a picturesque, 25 minute walk along Rekawa Beach will take you to a rock pool where it is safe to swim.
LOCATION
Sen Wellness Sanctuary is situated on Sri Lanka’s southern coastline, near the towns of Netolpitiya and Tangalle. In keeping with their philosophy that nature is the best healer, the team has designed The Sanctuary to function in harmony with its surroundings. It is located between pristine National Park and Rekawa Beach, a protected turtle nesting beach.

ACCOMMODATION
The 8 low key, yet luxury cabanas sleep up to 16 people, designed by Brazilian-American architect Adriana Arbex to mimic the natural shape of the conical shell to draw earth energy up from the land to be experienced by guests whilst staying in the rooms. Each of the twin and king-size rooms are carefully designed to allow natural ventilation avoiding the need for air-conditioning; thanks to the beachside location the resort is naturally cool. The bathrooms are open to the elements so guests can experience a shower whilst star gazing.
