Lawrence Ayurveda Paradise in detail

Hotel

Lawrence Ayurveda Paradise is nestled in a beautiful palm and flower garden covering around 10,000 m² in Hikkaduwa, on Sri Lanka’s south-west coast, about 16 km from Galle. This peaceful, privately run, family-run hotel sits on a small hill, around 250 m from the beach. Hikkaduwa’s beaches are among the most popular in the country.

Food & Drink

Next to the Ayurveda centre and right by the pool, the open-air restaurant sits amid the greenery of the garden. Here, you can enjoy a freshly prepared Ayurvedic buffet. The dishes are made mainly with local ingredients and prepared in keeping with your dosha. Chicken and white fish are also served at times. Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, low-salt, sugar-free and lactose-free dishes are available on request. The tea room has a hot and cold water dispenser and dosha-appropriate tea. In keeping with Ayurvedic dietary principles, alcohol, coffee and soft drinks are not served.

Health & Cures

Set amid the expansive gardens, the Ayurveda centre has 16 treatment rooms and a team of two Ayurveda doctors and qualified therapists. It is one of the few Ayurveda centres in Sri Lanka with a certified and licensed Ayurveda pharmacy and production facility. Individually tailored Ayurvedic treatments include head, face, body and foot massages with herbal oil, a warm rice bundle massage (Navara Kizhi), Shirodhara oil pouring and Ayurvedic herbal and steam baths. Inhalations, Abhyanga massages and Panchakarma cleansing techniques are also offered. Hatha yoga takes place daily, led by a professional yoga teacher in the yoga hall or on the water tower overlooking the sea. Meditation is available as needed, and acupuncture is offered for around €17. You are also welcome to visit the hotel’s own herbal kitchen or attend a talk by the Ayurveda doctors to learn about the production of Ayurvedic herbal medicine.

Leisure

The hotel has an outdoor pool with sun loungers and shade. The fine sandy beach, with a coral reef just offshore, is around a 5-minute walk away and offers year-round swimming. There are various excursions in the surrounding area, including boat trips, snorkelling, walks through the rice fields, visits to cinnamon and coconut plantations, and temple complexes.
