What past guests say
"This was my first time away since having my daughter and I hadn’t done yoga for around a year or so, I was a little nervous beforehand but I cannot tell you how absolutely wonderful this stay was. The food (chef Dani is a wizard) was just incredible, the yoga and the lovely group."
AArti
"Our group of 11 women all had very different levels of yoga experience, but Freddie was brilliant at making everyone feel comfortable, supported and included. She gave each of us personalised attention, with so much patience, encouragement and genuine care."
AAnne
"Beautiful venue with wonderful grounds and very clean. The yoga teacher Zennor was amazing and listened to what we needed as a group. Such a wonderful host too. Hayley’s cooking was so nourishing and filling and everything went like clockwork once we were there."
JJulie
"Had a very happy time with Adventure Yogi. Great opportunity to reflect, reset and meet some fabulous women. Felt very lucky to have Zennor leading our retreat and Haley producing magic in the kitchen. Beautiful setting too."
LLindsay
"A truly wonderful week in Montenegro. What a beautiful, uplifting and unforgettable yoga retreat! Helen is a wonderful yoga teacher who created the perfect balance of yoga, relaxation, activity and fun. Every session was thoughtfully planned and suitable for everyone, leaving me feeling stronger."

Based in Habaraduwa, this retreat combines sunrise lakeside yoga, evening yoga and nutritious plant based meals. The venue is a boutique yoga retreat with a private pool and lakeside views. Our practices and meals take place at Lanka Yoga, featuring an open-air jungle shala and communal dining. Excursions include a lake boat tour to Cinnamon Island, a scenic train trip to Galle, an orientation to Wijaya Beach, and a group surf lesson. Also running on 8-16th Feb 27.
Adventure Yogi runs down-to-earth, fun, friendly and inclusive active yoga holidays in places you wouldn't find on your own, mostly private venues with the beach or hiking trails within walking distance. Every itinerary is bespoke, hand-picked and designed by AY, so you won't find these trips anywhere else. Small groups of 6 to 16 women and men get yoga twice a day, guided adventures and plant-based food, with down-to-earth wellness that welcomes everyone. For over 1,000 retreats since 2006, all guests need to do is show up.
Venue Layout & Multi-Level Spaces: The property features multiple levels and distinct buildings, including upstairs rooms in the main villa, an elevated open-air yoga shala perched above the jungle apartment, and lakeside grounds.
The venue features a 9.5kW solar system covering about half of its total power usage. Buildings are designed with natural cooling to minimise the need for air conditioning, and inefficient lighting and appliances have been replaced with energy-efficient alternatives. Rainwater is captured, treated, and reused on-site, water heaters are solar-powered, and a five-stage wastewater treatment plant converts wastewater into nutrient-rich water for the gardens. The property avoids single-use plastics, makes reusable carry bags from old fabrics or bedsheets, and partners with local recycling initiatives for materials like glass, hard plastics, cardboard, and cans.
We recommend flying into Colombo a day early and staying overnight at an airport hotel. This ensures guests are refreshed, beat jet lag, and can easily meet the group transfer on Day 1. Book a departure flight leaving Colombo (CMB) after 12:45 PM on the final day.
The included transfer departs Colombo Airport (CMB) at 14:00 PM. Check-in at the venue begins at 16:30 PM. The return group transfer leaves the venue at 7:15 AM, arriving at Colombo Airport around 9:45 AM.
Tuk-tuks are readily available for quick local trips (the nearest surf beach is about 5 minutes away by tuk-tuk).

Questions and answers
Fly to Colombo Bandarainake airport. We provide free transfers if you arrive at the times we recommend in the 'getting there' section. You are welcome to arrive the day before or a few days before and stay near the airport and meet the transfer to join the group, and have recovered from jet lag.
Yes, you need an Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA), which serves as Sri Lanka’s official online visitor visa. You must apply for it before you travel through the Official Sri Lanka ETA Portal.
In Jan-March the climate is usually a nice temperature of around 30 degrees Celsius. The rainy season ends in December so it is green and lush with some rainfall. March is an amazing time to visit Sri Lanka with temperatures of around 30 degrees and a small chance of rainfall.
Yes. 87% of guests arrive solo, groups are small (6 to 16), and everyone joins a WhatsApp group before the retreat, so a few names already feel familiar when you arrive.
No. Yoga is for all levels, every class is optional, and it's not about being the bendiest.
No. Most of our guests are women, but every retreat is open to men, and they're very welcome.
It's as spiritual as you want it to be. We're a yoga company, so our teachers' practice is rooted in yoga philosophy, and they'll bring a little of it into class. But the focus here is the benefits that the yoga brings. Between the yoga practises the day is yours: if that means reading about the yamas and niyamas or chatting about chakras, lovely, and if it means a good book or a hike, that's lovely too. We call it down-to-earth wellness. The yoga is taken seriously in class, everything else is relaxed, and the oms usually start quietly at the beginning of the week and get belted out by the end.
No. Adventure Yogi isn't a travel agent, but the team will happily help you research flights and plan how to get there.
Yes – our wonderful vitality chefs can cater to any dietary requirement. We are vegetarian/vegan on our retreats and holidays but we can cater for dairy-free, gluten-free, sugar-free, and coeliac.
