We are so excited to be heading back to one of our favourite destinations… Sri Lanka!
Join us on our new year Sri Lankan yoga holiday and take time out for yourself in this tropical paradise. Our venue is in a vibrant area of the southwest coast that is situated between Galle and Mirissa in the surf mecca of Sri Lanka.
On this 9 nights yoga retreat in Sri Lanka, your home is a stunning retreat venue that is based on Lake Koggala, so you can enjoy a cool breeze during the hot hours of the day and escape the heat of the beach and have a coffee or juice in the lakeside cafe a few minutes walk from the venue. Designed with the infamous and beautiful Sri Lankan style architecture it is a place of tranquillity, immersed in nature, and you will instantly feel relaxed as soon as you enter the grounds.
The local beach is only a 5 minute tuk-tuk ride away or a 20 minute walk or you can choose where to head to. Turn left and you head towards Ahangama or Kabalana beach – a beautiful wide long beach with great surf for all levels, or simply lie on the beach, have a coconut and enjoy the views. Turn right and head to Wijaya beach, Unawatuna and Galle.
Enjoy 2 yoga classes a day in a rooftop yoga shala with lake views and all yoga equipment is included. Your Sri Lanka yoga holiday is also fully catered with in-house Sri Lankan chefs creating plant-based delights every meal time.
The days go by in a whirr of yoga, delicious meals, peace a quiet by the lake or visit the beaches and coastal villages and explore the local area. With surf at your doorstep you can make it a surf yoga holiday or if you prefer culture explore Galle and temples nearby. For wildlife, bird life is incredible and take a day trip on a safari and see what you find!
We have been exploring Sri Lanka finding the best sunshine, surf, beach and yoga holiday package for you since 2013. We have explored the whole island and the surrounding area of our yoga holiday location, to make sure we offer you the best balance of yoga, relaxation, adventure, culture and time out just for you.

Accommodation
Sri Lanka
Your accommodation for your yoga holiday in Sri Lanka is a beautiful lake-side yoga retreat venue that has been newly built in keeping with Sri Lanka’s architectural style. Think big pillars, polished concrete, and simple and minimal decor. It is very much outside living with large cosy day beds and lush plants and nature all around. A real oasis of peace and tranquillity. Relax by the Infinity pool, take a nap on a day bed or rest in your room.
Not being by the ocean has its blessings, a cool breeze from the lake and being inland a bit you get to see real Sri Lanka, local villages, daily life and the friendliness of your Sri Lankan neighbours.
Our exclusive venue offers a serene and peaceful experience for our group, with indoor and outdoor spaces including our large yoga and meditation shala, rooftop terraces, and beautiful gardens. Located on Sri Lanka’s south coast, our venue is the perfect place to connect with nature.
The Rooms
There are 9 rooms, and 4 different types of rooms. The group size is between 12 – 16. See below:
LUXURY TWO BED-ROOM – Twin room
Our largest room options are the upstairs rooms located in the main villa. One of the standout features of these rooms is the huge bathroom. It has a separate toilet, two showers, and two sinks, allowing for convenient and efficient use. Plus, brushing your teeth becomes an unforgettable experience as you gaze out onto the uninterrupted, elevated view of the lake. These rooms are designed to be cooled by cross ventilation, but an AC unit is also available for those who prefer a cooler temperature.
Additionally, this room boasts a massive balcony that overlooks the lake, providing the perfect place to relax, read a book, or simply take in the stunning view.
This room is for two people, however it can accommodate up to four people as there are two upper bunks integrated as a mezzanine. Please email [email protected] to book for three/four people.

LAKEFRONT ROOM – Ideal as single occupancy or double for a couple
These brand-new rooms are hidden under the grass area as you enter the central part of the venue because the venue wanted to work with a more sustainable building model. This means these rooms are cooled by being built into the ground with their green roof. With a little help from the ceiling fans, these rooms stay cool year-round, without the need for air-conditioning.
These rooms are best suited to a couple or solo traveller. They have a splittable king bed, with everything else you could need to be both comfortable and cool. In front of these rooms, you have a low view of the lake over the tops of the mangrove trees, with a large natural balcony in front to relax.

The rooms are thoughtfully designed with cross ventilation to provide a cool and comfortable environment. For those who prefer cooler temperatures, the rooms also have air conditioning.
The spacious rooms feature splittable king beds, making them ideal for couples or friends travelling together. The large bathrooms are equipped with modern amenities and are perfect for relaxing after a day of yoga and meditation.
The highlight of these rooms could be the expansive balcony that offers uninterrupted views of the picturesque lake. It’s the perfect spot to unwind, or simply soak up the peaceful surroundings.

Itinerary
We recommend that you plan to arrive in Colombo a day early and stay at an airport hotel that we recommend so that the transfer can collect everyone together. See the ‘How to get there’ section for more information.
On the arrival day, settle into your room, relax on the grounds and enjoy the first meal and welcome meeting to talk about your 10-day holiday ahead of you.
Each day will follow the schedule here, with the day filled with a loose structure and whatever you feel like doing. On the last day, most people will leave before 9 am so the last yoga class is the night before.

Beautiful Sri Lanka
Sri Lanka is a beautiful island that still has an untouched feel to it from tourism. We like to say it has all the best bits of India; it has amazing food, fascinating culture with a mix of Buddhism, Hindu, and Sinhalese; stunning beaches, the most friendly and accommodating people, sunshine, historical culture from the Dutch, Portuguese, and British; you will become a bird watcher here as their colours are so spectacular. And don’t forget its famous tea plantations and of course yoga and Ayurveda.
The southwest coast is the most developed and the most touristy, from Colombo going south around to Galle on the corner and then to Tangalle on the south coast, although it still hasn’t been impacted too much by tourism, enough to help support the local Sri Lankan people as their main import is tourism.
The country has so much to offer, given the size, you need to experience multiple trips to see it all! Explore the coastline and its villages and beaches like Hikkadua, Unawatuna, Ahangama, Kabalana, Wijaya and Dickwella or head inland to the hill country and explore Ella, Adams Peak, Hatton Plains and head up to Kandy and see Buddha’s tooth at the temple of the tooth!
From there head up to the cultural triangle and walk up Sigiriya for sunrise or sunset, enjoy Dambulla caves or enjoy a safari at lesser-known game parks that are packed full of wildlife, especially the Sri Lankan elephant.
There is so much to see and do in Sri Lanka and what makes it so special is the people. So friendly and kind and accommodating to travellers it is a safe place to travel or go on holiday and we highly recommend it.
Check out our Top Sri Lanka Destinations or see what our Sri Lanka guests have to say.
Heading down south, we are right on the beach in our new luxurious accommodation, with beautifully simple and chic rooms Sri Lankan boutique style in design, a private pool and the beach right next door. The surf beach is just around the bay, all you need is right where you are. Morning yoga revives you after a peaceful sleep and then be welcomed by our Sri Lankan staff for a wholesome and healthy breakfast. Relax by the pool in the shade or enjoy the beach. Here you can surf, dive or relax with the friendly locals on the beach; explore the markets and Buddhist temples and really fall in love with this stunning country and it’s people.
For those of you who have been with us before – now it’s time for a new adventure!

Sian Ferguson 2 – Cornwall
My first ever yoga retreat and I am so glad I went! The retreat was well organised, the yoga was restorative as well as energising and the food was fantastic. The reason I choose Adventure Yogi was it also included other activities and in this case, the walks were amazing. Will be coming back and would highly recommend doing so as I feel rested and changed from the experience.

It far exceeded my expectations. I have never felt so nourished and relaxed. After the last 18 months in the NHS I can't imagine a better, more restorative retreat could be possible. The team made it so special and the company and the laughter were outstanding. Thank you!

A refreshing break in beautiful scenery, a very comfortable hotel and great yoga. More please!

This has gone to number one in my retreat experiences - best yoga teaching I’ve ever experienced (as a relative beginner I never thought I’d ever be able to do a 2 hour class). The group bonded well and it was lovely to make new friends. The venue was in a stunning location, with pretty gardens.

Lovely - spacious, airy, homely, the terrace was a great spot for yoga in the mornings and the studio was a nice alternative space for yoga in the evenings. Great views from the rooms and terrace!

It inspired me to continue the downtime across the weekend... no TV or Netflix on both Saturday and Sunday. Instead, I listened to your playlist and read a book - Karen

This was my first yoga holiday and I didn’t know what to expect. But as soon as I arrived I knew I’d made a good choice. The organisers were welcoming and knowledgeable, the yoga teaching-focused, explanatory and evolving through the week, the food divine and the activity choices outside of the twice-daily yoga simply a treat. The combination of hiking/biking/white water rafting complemented each other perfectly, to give a fun and rejuvenating holiday that I’d love to repeat. Thanks to all for a great mountain experience!

Very relaxing hotel, wonderful staff and beautiful pool. The location is beautiful. Oia is breathtaking. The yoga and space were amazing. It was beautiful to practice at the church too.

It was great having free evenings as there is so much to see and do we needed the flexibility to experience it all. Really well thought out.

An oasis . Wonderful again. Fantastic atmosphere, delicious food, beautiful yoga space and massage room. ‘The boys’ looked after us so amazingly. And Santorini is amazing!

Excellent venue 10/10! Lovely island. The combination of the venue outside the main villages but the possibility to visit villages and the island was very nice!

It's a picture book resort with lovely empty slopes and the chalet-style apartment was perfectly placed. I was nervous about combining yoga and skiing but it turned out to be the ideal blend. Wonderful bunch of people. Would do it again in a heartbeat.

I am going home so uplifted and happy. Thankyou!

It was lovely that it wasn't a 'detox' retreat, but a holiday with yoga. You can eat and drink what you like, and the emphasis was very much on being kind to yourself. That included many chocolate milkshakes around the pool for some as the week progressed, alongside the customary greek salad of course.

I spent a week in Greece this summer with Adventure Yogi, and loved every second. I was apprehensive before going because I was a complete beginner (and didn't really know my Downward Dog from my Cobra), and 9 weeks pregnant (and full of nausea). But, I needn't have been nervous - I was completely spoilt by the yoga teachers, who were on hand with many adjustments to make sure the baby was safe and I didn't feel awkward at all about being inexperienced. The whole yoga experience was unbelievably fulfilling, much more so than I could have imagined.
Charlie Spencer – Greece
The yoga ski holiday was great. I loved the different approach to morning and evening sessions you could tell they were tailored to the skiing.
Lawal Brown – Ski Yoga
Our ski area is a picture book resort with lovely empty slopes and the chalet was perfectly placed. I was nervous about combining yoga and skiing but it turned out to be the ideal blend. Wonderful bunch of people. Would do it again in a heartbeat.
John Jones – Ski Yoga
I have been on 4 ski yoga holidays now. I love Sainte Foy and enjoyed the fact that we could ski at a number of locations. I’ll be booking again next year!
Alex Pantzar – Ski Yoga
Every person was made to feel special and valued as part of the yogi group. This I feel is down to the extraordinary people skills of the teacher and Michelle.

Sri Lanka has awakened something in me and I feel amazing. Thank you so much to my teacher for being such an inspiration.

Sri Lanka with AdventureYogi is a wonderful opportunity to unwind and explore the inner world in a beautiful setting.
Kate Barker – Sri Lanka
The farm at East Sussex was beautiful, peaceful and a countryside haven.
Jenny Sharpe – East Sussex
It exceeded my expectations I feel so grounded and calm. It was a good quality retreat and so tranquil and calm and it is a beautiful venue, very comfortable and loved the pool especially!
Claire Carlile – Brecon Beacons, Wales
Great! It was lovely to be practising yoga outside, I am not a young bunny and I found the pace manageable and involving and the background information clear.
Jane Evans – Costa Rica
The perfect winter getaway from the hustle and bustle of London. Loved the large cosy house with the open fire and the gardens are beautiful. Great yoga and delicious vegetarian food.
Penny Light – Peak District
Excellent location, superb food and wonderful yoga. Such a friendly, helpful group of organisers. Felt 100% better, re energised and healed – body, mind and spirit.
Vicky Dickens – Yoga Retreats
I really enjoyed the weekend, my boss just told me I look bright and glowing! Loved the early morning walks and meditating in the green fields. I had a really great teacher and it felt so good to practice yoga again. The food was delicious and our room was very cosy! Thanks so much!
Poppy Logan – Cornwall
This AdventureYogi retreat was a very special, nurturing and tranquil experience, I had an excellent yoga teacher, and a really wonderful venue. Lovely, easy-going group of people to share a few days with.
Jen – UK Retreats
Good team! Brilliantly organised, taking into account weather, what people wanted to do and of course yoga. What an amazing way to tick TWO things off my bucket list, hiking AND yoga in the beautiful Alps literally!
Joanna – Hiking Yoga French Alps
Fantastic venue. Beautiful house and gardens, tastefully decorated and quiet. The food was delicious, healthy but filling as well. Not tempting me to eat snacks in between! Tried horse riding for the first time in a perfect setting at a good price. A good mixture of quite a difficult hike and optional activities with relaxing yoga.
Philippa – Lake District
I liked everything, but what I most liked was the hikes as well as the sweet hospitality overall. Great organisation. Thorough explaining of activities and daily schedule. Expected yoga teacher to drift in and drift out, but she was always there. So giving of her time.
Pippa – French Alps Hiking
Nice venue. Great Scenes and Mountain views. Great Chalet and Great Location Yoga Space is cosy and nice balcony to have outdoor space. Very enjoyable must be the best hike I’ve been on. Met my expectations overall. Great week! The staff is the perfect team! The yoga changed my life! Dynamic together. There was the perfect amount of activity and relaxation.
Karen – Hiking French Alps
An inspirational start to the New Year – Loved every moment.

10/10! Beautiful Chalet, great facilities, loved the hot tub, lounge, deck, everything!
Vickie – Hiking French Alps
In my job as a travel journalist, I’m very lucky to have experiences several different yoga retreats. AlpineYogi was one of the best. Our teacher had real integrity and care, plus the group was just the right size. The combination of Alpine walking and yoga really worked. I was stretched in all the right ways.

I have fallen in Love with Sri Lanka and can not pick one single fault in the accommodation; it was 5 star in every single way. I was in my element with the food – curry for breakfast! It all exceeded my expectations… the food, the rooms, the yoga, and the little touches like the flowers on the sun beds and the bell on the gate made it very special.
Viv – Sri Lanka
