Heritance Ayurveda - All Meals and Treatments

I spent two incredible weeks at Heritage Ayurveda Maha Gedhara in Sri Lanka, and I can’t recommend it enough. From the moment I arrived, everything felt calm, warm, and deeply healing. The hotel itself is just the right size—with around 100 guests, it creates a cozy and personal atmosphere where you’re never just a number. You quickly feel at home, and the staff go above and beyond to make your stay as comfortable and meaningful as possible. The setting is simply stunning—located right on the coast of the Indian Ocean, with spectacular views from the restaurant, the pool, and the garden straight out to sea. Whether you’re enjoying a treatment, a meal, or just relaxing, the peaceful surroundings make it even more special. Rooms were spacious, clean, and cozy, with simple but functional furnishings. Housekeeping was excellent—our space was always tidy and welcoming. The food deserves special mention: delicious, fresh, Ayurvedic meals served three times a day, with options tailored to each body type. It was a perfect balance of healthy and flavorful, and I genuinely looked forward to every meal. The Ayurveda center was outstanding. Under the leadership of Dr. Kalpana, with Dr. Anupana and Dr. Nimisha, we received expert, compassionate care. Each day included four personalized treatments, such as multiple massages, acupuncture, herbal baths, steam baths, and inhalation therapies. A heartfelt thank you to the amazing therapists—Pubudu, Shimaly, Sandhuny, and Shanika—who were not only highly skilled but also incredibly kind and attentive. Their care made a real difference in how relaxed and well I felt throughout the stay. Special thanks also go to: • Restaurant Manager Pradeep, for his warm presence and smooth service • Nutritionist Specialist Manikya - for her profound knowledge on healthy eating habits and for her friendliness and willingness to help in every day situations • Housekeeping Manager Nidal, for impeccable room care and hospitality • Relationship Executive Dilki, who was always ready to help with anything we needed • And of course, all the waitresses, housekeepers, and chefs—everyone contributed to a truly welcoming atmosphere. The front desk staff were also wonderful, and we were so grateful to be allowed a late checkout on our last day, as our flight was quite late in the evening. A real highlight of the stay was the Sinhala and Tamil New Year’s Eve celebration. The staff organized a joyful day filled with traditional games, music, delicious food, and a genuine sense of festivity. It was an honor to share in their culture and be welcomed so warmly. Heritage Ayurveda Maha Gedhara is more than just a hotel—it’s a place of deep healing, warmth, and care. I left feeling refreshed, relaxed, and re-energized, ready to return to my daily life with new focus and lightness. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a meaningful and restorative Ayurvedic retreat by the ocean.

A-M-A-Z-I-N-G in every single way. The hotel pool area is so beatiful, the staff is superfriendly and they do the utmost to make you happy. The food was great - which was a surprise to me as I am not a vegan and always want some kind of meet, dairy or fish with my food - but here I didn’t miss it. The Ayurvedic centre was so clean and beautuful and the staff over there were true professionals. This was my first experience with ayurvedic medicine, but will definitely not be the last. If you come here for a more relaxed wellness holiday and not so much for the real ayurvedic treatments, you can say that to the doctor and they will not get offended, they will just prescribe you more massages in stead of the deep cleansing treatments. The doctor said to me at arrival ”This is your time here, we can only make suggestions on what to do, but you choose what you want to do”. I did everything that was prescribed to me and never felt better. I stayed for only one week, which was okay length for me as a first-timer. Now that I know what to excpect, next time I will stay longer. Thank you Heritance Ayurveda, you are perfect in every way ❤️
