Retreat Overview
Yoga & Pilates Retreat in the Hills of Sri Lanka
Twice-daily yoga and Pilates high in the central mountains of Sri Lanka, with Ayurvedic cuisine, jungle views and journeys to UNESCO treasures.
Spend nine days high in the mountains of central Sri Lanka at Yasmin Hill, where the jungle canopy stretches to the horizon and the sun rises over the treetops. Built from natural materials and wrapped in gardens of fruit, vegetables, spices and tea growing where they belong, the resort is a place made for slowing down — with a 20-metre pool and waterfall, a sauna and jacuzzi, and an Ayurvedic kitchen serving full board.
Twice a day, morning and evening, Alena and Ilona lead yoga and Pilates in the glass-walled Sati Hall facing the sunrise, or in the open-air pavilion among the trees. Every class is adapted so that a complete beginner is as welcome as a seasoned practitioner, and all props are provided. Between practices the island opens up: tea plantations and waterfalls on the road to Nuwara Eliya, the UNESCO cave temple of Dambulla and the rock fortress of Sigiriya, and the temples and gardens of Kandy.

Environment as Medicine
Nestled in the tropical highlands of the ancient Kandyan Kingdom, Yasmin Hill is more than a resort—it is a hidden enclave of silence. Perched on a lush hillside in Moragolla, our sanctuary overlooks a valley of untouched emerald green.
Here, the air is oxygen-rich, the sounds are purely natural, and the horizon is endless. We are far enough from the city to ensure absolute tranquility, yet rooted deeply in the spiritual heart of Sri Lanka. This is a landscape that invites your nervous system to finally exhale.
Accommodation Designed for Deep Rest
Choose from our Superior, Deluxe, or spacious Suite accommodations, each designed to blur the line between indoor comfort and outdoor serenity. Ground-floor rooms open onto private terraces, while first-floor sanctuaries feature breezy balconies—both furnished with designer seating for your relaxation.
To support your natural circadian rhythm, our rooms utilize bio-climatic natural ventilation instead of artificial air-conditioning, ensuring fresh, oxygen-rich air and pleasant temperatures for restorative sleep.
Amenities: High-speed WiFi, personal safe, minibar, and organic Ayurvedic toiletries. Enjoy complimentary herbal tea and coffee stations in every room.
Note: For a complete digital detox, our Sattva, Rajas, and Tamas rooms are intentionally TV-free.

How to Get to Yasmin Hill
By Air & Private Transfer: The most convenient option. Yasmin Hill is a 3–3.5 hour drive from Colombo International Airport.

Location & Arrival: We are hidden in the hills of Thalathuoya (search “Yasmin Hill Longevity Oasis” in your GPS). As you ascend the winding mountain roads, prepare for stunning vistas. A warm welcome and full luggage assistance await you at the top.
