Our Hotel - Yasmin Hill

Our hotel – Yasmin Hill Longevity Oasis

Genius Loci

Perched in the serene hills above Kandy, on a foundation of pink quartz, lies Yasmin Hill – a sanctuary where the healing power of nature, the ancient wisdom of Ayurveda, and a modern approach to longevity come together in perfect harmony.
Welcome to Sri Lanka, our beloved home – a land of misty mountains, lush tea plantations, fragrant spices, and heartfelt hospitality that warms you like the tropical sun.

How did it start

Founder Zlata Holušová dedicated over two decades to building one of the largest cultural festivals in Central Europe.
After years of travel, intense work, and meeting inspiring people from around the world, the vision was born – to create a place where deep rest, personal growth, and the joy of life come together.
It was here that she discovered a deep connection with Buddhist meditation, a practice she continues to this day – considering it a vital remedy for the stress and burnout of modern Western life.
Sri Lanka was both a heartfelt and thoughtful choice – with its rich nature, culture, and ancient healing traditions, it offers the perfect setting for an oasis of longevity.

Our vision and philosophy

Yasmin Hill is not a typical hotel – it’s a Longevity Oasis.
Our mission is to offer guests the opportunity to:

Slow down and restore the strength of body and mind
Experience the healing power of Ayurveda, yoga, and conscious movement
Benefit from modern regenerative technologies
Enjoy healthy cuisine crafted from our organic gardens
Live moments that inspire and transform

We want Yasmin Hill to become a place you’ll long to return to – for energy, peace, and inspiration.
A place where you can touch longevity, and leave not only with beautiful memories but with a renewed sense of life.
Here, you can deepen your healing journey, open a new chapter of your personal story, and experience a true pause in time – moments of full presence and harmony with yourself.

Life-Changing Retreats, Guided by Healing Nature

Each year, we host over twenty retreats focused on yoga, meditation, personal growth, and the fusion of Ayurveda with modern longevity practices.
At the heart of every gathering is community – people from around the world united by a passion for health, conscious living, and inner transformation.

Our Sati Hall, a spacious wooden pavilion with jungle views, is the heart of the retreat experience – a space for yoga, sharing circles, music, and meditation.
It’s where lasting friendships are formed and memories are made.

Nature plays a vital role too – with 100 blooming flower species and Ayurvedic herbs growing wild across Yasmin Hill.
Your meals are filled with fresh, organic fruits and vegetables, part of Sri Lanka’s rich agricultural heritage of over 80 edible plant varieties.

Here, you’ll experience the wisdom of Ayurveda and the healing power of nature – fully, with all your senses.

A balance of adventure and relaxation – from silent meditations to nature excursions
