Highs

  • Santani prides itself on being an eco-friendly retreat
  • It is highly intimate, with only 16 rooms and a back-to-nature décor.
  • Cuisine is locally and naturally sourced, and the menus are designed to detoxify the body.
  • Set in the Sri Lankan mountains, you can enjoy a range of activities such as explorative hikes, jungle boot camps, wildlife safaris and river swimming.
  • The climate is warm all year round, averaging low 30’s between December and March, perfect for getting a bit of winter sun.

  • Yoga and meditation is widely encouraged, helping you to develop a deep connection with yourself.
  • An ayurvedic wellness programme is offered at this retreat.

Lows

  • There is no temperature control, so the rooms can get quite cool in the evenings.
  • The resort is a long way from the airport (4.5 hours), and the last 1.5 hours are up winding mountain roads. There is, however, an option for a 40-minute sea plane and 40-minute drive.
  • The retreat currently does not have the license to sell alcohol
  • The retreat is very secluded.
