Hotel details
A luxury Ayurveda resort in Sri Lanka’s Cultural Triangle – at Ayugiri Ayurveda Wellness Resort, you’ll restore balance to your mind, body, and soul through the ancient traditions of authentic Ayurvedic medicine.
Where you are going...
Sigiriya is located in the heart of Sri Lanka’s Cultural Triangle, a region between the ancient cities of Anuradhapura, Polonnaruwa, and Dambulla. This area is rich in historical ruins, rock formations, and sacred sites, including the Dambulla cave temples, the iconic Sigiriya Rock, and the Kaudulla and Minneriya national parks – the perfect spot for elephant safaris in open 4x4s. There are only a handful of Ayurveda resorts in this region, and Ayugiri Ayurveda Wellness Resort is one of them. With breathtaking views of the majestic Lion’s Rock, this resort offers a unique blend of culture and wellness. Immerse yourself in spiritual excursions, such as the guided meditation in Kaludiya Pokuna, an archaeological wonder hidden in nature where you can connect with age-old traditions of healing through the ancient rituals of Pirith chanting and Shanthikarma blessings. The international airport in Colombo is about a three-hour drive away.
Why you’ll love it...
At Ayugiri, you abandon autopilot mode and reawaken your awareness.

Whether you're looking for prevention, healing, or overall wellness, these treatments offer a transformative journey toward lasting health, happiness, and balance. Yoga and meditation are seamlessly integrated into the experience.

Slow down and absorb the energy of Sigiriya’s stunning landscape. With every breath, you become more connected to nature.
Wellness, Spa and Health
In Ayurveda, health—or Swastha—is the balance of doshas and dhatus. True wellness goes beyond the physical; it is a harmony of caring for the body, calming the mind, and uplifting the spirit. Ayugiri’s team of expert Ayurvedic doctors and therapists identify imbalances in your body through personalized consultations and assessments. A tailored programme is then created, combining Ayurvedic treatments, nutrition, herbal supplements, yoga, and meditation techniques to restore balance and vitality.
