The Medusa 7-Night Ayurveda Retreat is designed for one or two guests seeking focused Ayurvedic care in the privacy of a small colonial villa. Instead of a large resort, you stay in a house with its own healing history, surrounded by a quiet tropical garden near Galle.
From arrival in Sri Lanka, every detail can be arranged for you. This includes VIP welcome at Colombo airport, lounge access, and a private transfer to the villa. On request, we also assist with Sri Lanka e-visa applications and with flight planning from Germany, including Sri Lankan Airlines’ non-stop Germany–Colombo business-class connection, subject to availability and additional cost.
Your Ayurvedic doctor meets you personally, assesses your condition, and creates an individual plan of treatments, herbal support, and meals. An in-house chef, two butlers, and your host coordinate daily life, allowing you to focus fully on rest, healing, and selected experiences around southern Sri Lanka.
