Tangalle, Sri Lanka Kayaam Wellness
Ayurveda by the ocean
Kayaam Wellness sits on Sri Lanka’s southern coast, along Tangalle Bay. Tall coconut palms line the front lawn and the pool, with the Indian Ocean spreading out beyond. The small house of nine rooms, suites and residences is a place to find your way back, devoted to Ayurveda, movement and calm. The wellness journeys combine ayurvedic therapies with natural ingredients and a rhythm that follows the body: a consultation with the resident doctor, meals tailored to your dosha, yoga at sunrise. The house welcomes guests aged 16 and over only.

Impressions
Cuisine
The kitchen relies on fresh, seasonal ingredients. Guests on a wellness journey receive meals tailored to their personal dosha after a consultation with the ayurvedic doctor. For a relaxed beach stay, the à la carte menu is available instead, and the chef prepares individual dishes on request. There is also a five-course “Sea Waves” dinner and a barbecue evening.
Wellness
The Wellness Journeys lead through ayurvedic therapies, natural ingredients and practices that bring calm. The spa has four treatment rooms, including a couple’s room and a traditional steam bed. The sauna and steam room, framed by panoramic windows over the ocean, are open daily from 6:00 am to 6:00 pm. Yoga takes place daily at 6:30 am in the Yoga Shala, and the gym with a multigym, treadmill and free weights is open from 6:00 am to 8:00 pm.
Experiences
The surroundings invite kayaking in Rekawa Lagoon, snorkelling in the natural pools, cycling, diving in Tangalle and surfing at Blue Beach. Further destinations include the Mulkirigala rock temple, the Kalametiya Bird Sanctuary and safaris. On the water, you can choose between shared or private whale watching and a sunset cruise on a private yacht.
Room categories
Kayaam Wellness offers five categories across the house and garden, from the Garden Terrace Rooms to the Palm View Residence. All have air conditioning, Wi-Fi, a minibar and a coffee machine with Dilmah tea, and the design combines understated style in neutral colours with wooden furniture and Sri Lankan fabrics.
The Garden Terrace Rooms (approx. 40 sqm) are on the ground floor and face west onto the tropical garden and infinity pool, to which they have direct access. On the private terrace the day begins with a coffee among the greenery, and a king-size bed provides restful sleep. The rooms suit guests who value quiet, nature and uncomplicated boutique comfort by the sea.
The Ocean Rooms (approx. 45-50 sqm) face west and look across the tropical garden to the Indian Ocean. Each room has a private balcony or terrace with an outdoor bathtub, a king-size bed and a rollaway bed for a third guest. On the ground floor the rooms open directly to the pool, and some upper-floor rooms can be interconnected, which suits travellers who wish to stay together.
The Palm View Rooms (approx. 50-55 sqm) look onto the green palm landscape and offer more space than the first categories. A large separate living area complements the bedroom with a king-size bed, and on the private terrace, seating invites you to linger outdoors. They suit guests who also enjoy spending the day in their own room.
The Palm View Suites (approx. 65-70 sqm) separate living and sleeping, giving noticeably more room to retreat. On the private terrace awaits your own jacuzzi overlooking the palms and garden, ideal after a spa treatment or in the evening. The suite is aimed at guests who wish to combine privacy with time in warm water.
The Palm View Residences (approx. 100-120 sqm) are the house’s most generous accommodations, with separate living and sleeping areas, a private jacuzzi and a spacious terrace. The view reaches across the palms and, depending on location, as far as the sea. The residences suit guests who want a refuge of their own with plenty of quiet and space for longer stays.
Your journey in best hands.
