Lanka Yoga Retreat

Lanka Yoga is absolutely amazing! Stunning palace that truly created a serene experience. It's a place where I can truly slow down, relax and practice stillness. Each meal is curated with fresh and nutritious local ingredients and so tasty. The staff are incredibly thoughtful and goes above and beyond to make each guest feel welcome.

Lanka Yoga is a slice of heaven in such a beautiful part of this country. I spent 7 days here on a Synergy Vinyasa retreat. The location is stunning. Incredibly accessible from the nearby towns of Galle/Ahangama etc but inland a little right on the lake. The design and architecture as well as all the furniture culminates into a beautiful open, light space that makes you feel instantly relaxed. The rooms are spotless and so stylish and spacious. The food was absolutely incredible. You’d never know you’ve just been vegan for a whole week and the variety of Sri Lankan and more western/fusion dishes was amazing. We were so well fed and a special mention goes to the healthy homemade raw “snickers” bars of which I had plenty!! The chefs and all the staff are so kind, caring and gentle and looked after us so very well. Lanka Yoga is an incredibly well-oiled machine! And finally, to Dush and Marilena, our wonderful synergy yoga instructors. You offered such a wonderful energy into the practices and all the little rituals we discovered in-between. They are both so kind and incredibly knowledgeable, professional and passionate about what they are teaching. I’d never done synergy Vinyasa and the way that they structured the class schedule was so well thought out, to offer us a wide and dynamic introduction to the practice. Not to forget, the gorgeous lovely Rumi, their 20 month year old who made her presence around meal times, bringing her delightfully gorgeous character ❤️ Thank you so much for a beautiful stay and I feel well and truly relaxed afterwards ❤️
