Ypsylon Resort in Detail

Your Ayurveda Resort

In the midst of approx. 5 hectares of enchanting flora and fauna, directly on the 200 m wide private bay (sandy beach seasonal), lies the idyllic and quiet complex of the Ypsylon Resort. The deliberately flat construction blends perfectly into the landscape. The family-run Ypsylon with seasonally open diving school is also very committed to environmental protection. Self-sufficiency, waste separation/recycling, energy generation/saving and resource recovery are the focus of a specially established "environmental zone" not far from the resort. These measures are unique in Sri Lanka and are favorably supported by the state.

Location & Surroundings

Beruwela is one of the oldest cities on the west coast of Sri Lanka, with a lighthouse built by the colonial powers on a small island in front of the port. The reef emerging from it protects the kilometre long sandy beach up to the Bentota river.

Dining & Leisure

Next to the Ayurveda Centre, exclusively reserved for Ayurveda guests, is the Ayurveda Pavilion with open buffet. The day starts with a "Nature Smile Smoothie", at noon and in the evening traditional Ayurvedic food, varied, low calorie, vegetarian, mixed with local side dishes is served. Lean white fish or chicken on request.

An à-la-carte restaurant with national and international dishes is located in the front part of the complex. Many herbs and ingredients come from our own cultivation.

Health & Treatments

In the garden area under the guidance of experienced Ayurveda doctors. Trained team of therapists, several treatment rooms for Shirodhara, oil massages, baths, acupuncture, Ayurvedic steam bath, herbal sauna. Accompanying yoga, meditation on request (approx. € 10/hour). Even hand-made natural medicine based on herbs according to traditional Ayurvedic recipes.

The vacation was really good, everyone went to great lengths to fulfill all our wishes and expectations. Our room was large, which is very comfortable for two people in a room. The friendliness of all the staff and therapists is exemplary, thank you. The general ambience: very well-kept resort. Many thanks, Renata and Bernhard from Berlin

The location of the ypsylon resort is very good. The health, therapeutic area, treatments very good, hotel very good. There is a crucial imbalance, you should definitely know that beforehand. For example, the transfer from the airport to the hotel was also good. We arrived at the hotel at 7.30 and I could not get up until 12.00 room. The voucher says 13.00 check-in and 11.00 check-out....After this long flight and 1-2 nights of sleeplessness, this situation was extraordinary and stressful, no reception and no concrete information. now I know that and would prepare myself for it. It was my 5th time in srilanka for Ayurveda retreat. The first four times it was always the case that I was welcomed and looked after in a very friendly manner immediately after the transfer and was able to move into my room straight away. It was also never a problem to be able to use the room until the evening when checking out, as the flight usually leaves at midnight. In the ypsylon we had to leave the room at 11.00 am. But since the transfer was not until 20.00 in the evening, we had to book a room again for the day at full rate. You have to shower several times and simply need to retreat for the day. Nevertheless, I would go back to the ypsylon. Everything else was top, relaxing and ambience good

The vacation was okay, but not a highlight
