Sooriya Resort & Spa in detail
Hotel
Stylish Sooriya Resort & Spa enjoys an idyllic setting on Sri Lanka’s southern coast, in Rekawa near Tangalle. Its elevated position affords breathtaking views stretching more than 180° across the Indian Ocean. Surrounded by tropical nature and unspoilt beaches, this charming boutique resort has just 36 rooms and offers a true retreat for those seeking relaxation. With its pleasant, stable climate and little rainfall throughout the year, the region is ideal for a restorative break, even outside the traditional holiday seasons. Away from mass tourism, the resort’s peaceful setting is perfect for slowing down, enjoying privacy and restoring your sense of wellbeing. Yoga and Ayurveda enthusiasts will find particularly favourable conditions here for holistic wellbeing. The hotel combines modern comforts with traditional Sri Lankan hospitality, creating a harmonious atmosphere of calm. A rare highlight: guests can watch both the sunrise and sunset over the sea. The fine sandy beach is just a short walk away, inviting you to enjoy long strolls or relax beneath the palm trees. The natural surroundings, rich in wildlife, and proximity to a turtle sanctuary add to the distinctive character of this intimate retreat.
Location & Surroundings
Tangalle is a coastal town in the south of Sri Lanka, known for its beautiful beaches and relaxed atmosphere. The region offers a mix of scenic bays, unspoilt beaches and rich natural beauty. Tangalle attracts travellers looking for a peaceful retreat away from busier tourist destinations. The area is ideal for swimming, sunbathing and walks along the coast. The surroundings are characterised by tropical vegetation, lagoons and abundant wildlife, making them ideal for nature lovers, birdwatchers and those seeking peace and quiet. Several attractions are also nearby, including Rekawa Beach, an important nesting site for sea turtles, and Mulkirigala Temple, built into a rocky cliff.
Food & Drink
The resort places great importance on using fresh, locally sourced ingredients, supporting organic farming and sustainable fishing. Guests who have booked an Ayurveda programme are served Ayurvedic meals in consultation with the Ayurveda doctor. These menus are specially designed to complement the Ayurvedic treatments and promote physical and mental wellbeing. To allow guests to dine separately from the non-Ayurvedic buffet, Ayurvedic meals can also be served in different locations on request, for example in the garden or in their room. Your individual preferences will be discussed together on arrival. The hotel also has a cosy bar, inviting you to relax there during the day and in the evening. Food intolerances and special dietary requirements can be accommodated on request (please specify when booking).
