Sen Wellness Clinic, an established holistic clinic in the medical district of Harley Street, London, since 2005, has proudly opened its doors to Sen Wellness Sanctuary, Sri Lanka, in December 2014. Founder and Osteopath Dr Sam Kankanamge became aware of a need for a special place to self-heal and nourish and so created Sen Wellness Sanctuary.
The Sanctuary quickly gained its reputation as one of the top 20 retreat centres in the world and prides itself in offering highly personalised services to its guests. It has been recognised in The Guardian, The Times and Condé Nast Traveller as well as in other international publications.
Dr Sam has drawn on both his life and professional experience of holistic healthcare, to build his dream sanctuary. With the help of an extraordinary network and his brother Sudheera, they translate health, business and hospitality know-how into Sen Wellness Sanctuary’s life-enhancing retreats. A retreat mentor takes care of every guest’s individual wellness journey and gives additional support to make the necessary transition from Sanctuary to normal life as smooth as possible for our guests.

Offering a warm welcome and a retreat to really relax into, the Sen Wellness Sanctuary is the perfect retreat for those seeking to get away from it all and immerse themselves in the restorative benefits of nature. Nestled between a lagoon and the sea on the southern Sri Lankan coast, the Sanctuary building frames views of the treetops and the lush nature reserve around it. The stylish minimal architecture invites a feeling of spaciousness and light as well as offering many quiet communal spaces, perfect for reading or relaxing in-between treatments.
Offering an authentic retreat to balance a busy modern life, everything at the Sanctuary is directed towards a renewed connection with self. Deep relaxation, rest and a digital detox are encouraged. Guests can enjoy undisturbed walks along the idyllic sandy beach to discover the beauty and serenity of having it all to themselves.
Visiting this tucked-away haven they can experience Ayurveda, yoga, meditation and spiritual enrichment, with a team of expert practitioners. The friendly and caring staff offer a warm and hospitable welcome at this 12 room resort which takes pride in its personal atmosphere and individualised treatment plans. Our female Ayurvedic Doctor offers additional support to women who travel solo.

The Ayurveda treatments at the Sanctuary are a core part of the retreat. The onsite Doctor does a diagnosis in consultation and prescribes a healing wellness plan that meets personal health goals. This includes oil and herbal massages, steam and body treatments as well as daily supplements and medications for those on longer stays. Mornings are spent in a robe as guests blissfully move between treatment rooms to receive careful attention to their wellbeing.
The holistic and transformative wellness programmes at the Sanctuary go beyond Ayurveda and daily Yoga to include mindfulness. Programmes include regular meditations with a visiting Buddhist monk, more in-depth one-to-one yoga and meditation, and sound healing and gong baths for deep relaxation and energy clearing.
A weekly schedule of local excursions is included in the stay and perfect for those free afternoons. There are trips to the local market and a wonderful Buddhist rock temple as well as activities on site such as turtle watching on the beach and boat rides on the lagoon. Guests are welcome to attend twice-weekly Ayurvedic cooking classes.

We offer fresh authentic Sri Lankan cuisine made by our Ayurvedic chef working closely with our Ayurvedic medical team, to maximise the wellness experience. Ingredients are locally grown and sourced and produce is field fresh and full of vitality. Food is vegetarian, with occasional locally caught fish offered on the side. Genuinely nourishing, with very little wheat and dairy, the vibrant menu at the Sanctuary will support better health whilst being enjoyable. Fresh herbal teas are prepared daily and a King coconut is offered for optimal hydration after morning yoga.
Our Bespoke retreats run throughout the year and allow guests to have their individually tailored wellness programme at times that best suit them.
Signature retreats are seasonal events. The programme is designed as a wellbeing journey, keeping in harmony with the natural flow of the season. It brings together a group of guests for ceremonies with a spiritual focus. It is the perfect place to connect and build meaningful relationships with other guests. An international and multi-disciplinary team of practitioners work on these retreats bringing expertise in holistic therapies. Hosted by founder Dr Sam Kankanamge, Signature retreats include personal treatment sessions with him and additional support in pre and/or post-retreat care.
