Yoga, Soul + Safari
in Sri Lanka
For the ones who want to FEEL it all again
March 14th-21st 2026
Explore magical southern Sri Lanka to reignite your spirit + reconnect with You.
Tucked away in a tranquil jungle sanctuary just 10 minutes from the golden shores of Hiriketiya Beach, this is not just a retreat — it’s a return.
To yourself. To your vitality. To the wild, radiant pulse of your life.
Imagine waking up to the sound of birdsong and distant waves, easing into your day with soul-stirring yoga overlooking the canopy of palms. Spend your days dancing between stillness and movement, surfing crystalline waves, tracking elephants on safari, immersing in icy plunge pools, indulging in nurturing spa rituals, and gathering for nourishing, vibrant meals crafted with local ingredients and intention.
This retreat is a portal. A chance to step out of the noise and into the rhythm of your own breath. To reconnect with the version of you that feels inspired, open and lit up from within.
Evenings slow down with sunset sound baths, journalling, candle-lit ceremonies, and the gentle hum of jungle life. Whether you’re soaking in the serenity of our tranquil, leafy retreat or venturing into the lively pulse of Hiriketiya Beach, just 10 minutes by tuk tuk, every part of this experience brings you closer to what you need.
This is your invitation to emerge from the long drawn out Winter months (in the northern hemisphere) and come alive again. Join this retreat to feel more. To soften, expand and most importantly, reconnect with yourself.

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, sun-drenched terraces, and 60 sqm infinity pool, the views stretch all the way to the Indian Ocean.
There’s space to gather, space to unwind, and space to simply be. Enjoy the luxury of two large ice baths for your cold plunge rituals, a sundeck for basking, two open dining areas and countless quiet corners for 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, resturants, 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 bustling atmosphere.
