Why choose Surya Lanka

We are committed to giving our guests an honest, result-oriented Ayurveda program – no mysticism, no ‘bits and pieces’ of Panchakarma, no ‘maybes’. Our Ayurveda programs are comprehensive, effectively managed by qualified, experienced medical staff and includes such treatments as authentic Vasti, Virechana (preceded by Snehanam and oil / steam) and when necessary, Vamana, Shiro-Vasti and Kati-Vasti.

As part of our commitment to honesty and transparency in the field of Panchakarma, we were the first Ayurveda Hotel in Sri Lanka to openly publish a treatment schedule, detailing both the variety and number of treatments given in a ‘typical’ Ayurveda program. This includes treatments from the 3 stages of Purvakarma, Pradhanakarma, Pashatakarma as well as special treatments, massages and Doctor’s consultations.

Our superb location. The Talalla beach is one of the very few along this coast which is beach boy / seller free. Ideal for swimming during the European Winter, this picturesque bay is bounded by lush coconut palms and provides absolute beach frontage for our resort.

We were the first purpose-built beach resort to cater exclusively for Panchakarma guests. We don’t accept holiday tourists and remain smoke and alcohol free. The entire atmosphere is relaxed, quiet, an oasis of peace for those seeking physical and mental well-being.

Our Doctors are all university graduates who have been trained in the Surya Lanka system. They, as well as our therapists, have also reaped the benefits of the training given by two well respected Ayurveda specialists from India. These doctors introduced better, more comprehensive methods of administering Nasya, Virechena etc as well as organising the correct sequence of our medical treatments. Our doctors are caring, responsive to guests needs and wishes and always have time to listen.

Both with tertiary education, well travelled; and with a wide variety of interests, they use their combined 70 years of experience in the hospitality industry to ensure that your stay at Surya Lanka will be successful and memorable.
