Das Sanctuary
Nachhaltige Veränderung: Empowerment und Weiterentwicklung
Wir haben großen Wert darauf gelegt, einen sicheren und unterstützenden Raum zu schaffen, in dem tiefgreifende Heilung und Transformation stattfinden können. Dies ist in jedem Element des Sanctuary spürbar, von der Sensibilität des architektonischen Designs, das sich harmonisch in das umliegende Ökosystem einfügt, über die sorgfältig gestalteten Retreat-Programme bis hin zur Freundlichkeit und Fürsorge unseres außergewöhnlichen Teams.
Unterkunft und Einrichtungen
Wählen Sie zwischen unseren Gallery Rooms, umweltbewussten Cabanas oder Luxus-Cabanas, die alle kunstvoll mit natürlichen Materialien und lokal gefertigten Gegenständen eingerichtet sind.
Nachhaltigkeit
Wir sind ein umweltbewusstes Retreat-Zentrum, versteckt in einem Schutzgebiet, das Heimat eines tropischen Mangroven-Ökosystems, einer friedlichen Lagune, einer vielfältigen Tierwelt und eines unberührten Sandstrandes ist, an dem riesige Meeresschildkröten ihre Nester bauen.
Tagesrhythmus
Wir ehren den Sanskrit-Begriff für die tägliche Routine, „Dinacharya“, der bedeutet, „dem Tag nahe zu sein“ und im Einklang mit den Rhythmen der Natur zu leben.

The Sen Wellness Journey was the best experience I have ever had. It was not a typical vacation, but a very special journey—both on my own and deeply within myself.
It is a place full of beautiful impressions, kind-hearted people, highly skilled therapists (I work myself as an Ayurveda body practitioner), and excellent doctors. The atmosphere and the interior of the Sanctuary are something I would love to take home with me to Hamburg.
The surrounding nature, with all its facets, colors, and sounds, completely enchanted me. The food is prepared with so much love, the yoga practice is exactly right, and the 1:1 gong sessions and coaching with the monk were truly special.
I feel stronger, more balanced, and more content than I have in years. And along the way, beautiful friendships were formed as well.
I will take the rituals I learned here back home with me—and I am certain that I will return again very soon.
Thank you💝

Amazing experience! I was only here for 3 days but feel so much better after. The staff is great and really listen to you. The treatments were incredible and put me in such a peaceful mindset for the rest of the day. Their building has a pool and what seems like a private beach. The facilities are updated and very clean. Great retreat and sanctuary!

I am so grateful for my stay at the Sen Sanctuary. I immediatley felt well. The food is very good and healthy. The staff is very helpful and friendly. They read your wishes from your eyes. The treatements I liked very much. The yoga teachers very friendly and diverse yoga options. I liked my room very much. The room was cleaned daily. I will come back hopefully soon. Thank you everyone at the Sen Sanctuary for this wonderful time I had. Corinne

Sen Wellness has been amazing. The Ayurvedic treatments are top of the bill, the food is delicious, staff always friendly and the surrounding nature is lovely. The beach, the pool, monkees in the trees, squirrels, birds… I will miss this place, the people, the yoga…is has been a bliss and I feel lighter and full of energy again. Will be back! ❤️

Stayed at Sen Wellness Sanctuary after spending time at its sister retreat, Rekawa, and loved how different yet connected the experience felt. Sen is beautifully designed, calm, and carries a gentle spiritual energy that quietly wraps around you.
What makes the place special is its setting. On one side you have the wide open beach, and on the other side a serene lagoon, so you feel like you are floating between two worlds rather than choosing just one.
The wellness sessions were grounding, the food was clean and comforting, and everything about the space makes it easy to slow down without even trying. I may not have reached enlightenment, but I definitely reached a very pleasant level of “life is good”.
Sam, the founder, is a warm and thoughtful host who clearly cares about the experience of every guest. You can feel that Sen is built from intention, not just aesthetics.
I left feeling lighter, calmer, and genuinely refreshed. If you are looking for a serene, well designed retreat that feels soulful without trying too hard, Sen is absolutely worth it.

Für mich war dieser Ayurveda-Retreat von A bis Z perfekt und hat meine Erwartungen bei weitem übertroffen. Das gesamte Team ist ausserordentlich herzlich, aufmerksam und zuvorkommend – man fühlt sich vom ersten Moment an willkommen und bestens aufgehoben.
Die Ayurveda-Ärztinnen waren unglaublich angenehm, einfühlsam und kompetent. Ich habe mich durchgehend hervorragend betreut und ernst genommen gefühlt.
Auch die Anlage selbst ist wunderschön: die Lage, das Meer, der Strand – einfach traumhaft. Und nicht zu vergessen das fantastische Essen, das jeden Tag ein Highlight war.
Diese Erfahrung war für mich rundum bereichernd, sodass ich direkt wieder für nächstes Jahr reserviert habe. Absolute Herzensempfehlung!

★★★★★ Absolutely outstanding experience
We were absolutely thrilled with our 10-day stay. From the very first moment, everything was perfectly organized and carried by genuine warmth.
The therapists and treatment team are exceptional – deeply skilled, attentive, and truly present. The doctors are fantastic: knowledgeable, compassionate, and inspiring, making us feel safe and understood at every step. A special thank you also to the service staff for their kindness, professionalism, and constant care. We are very grateful to everyone.
The food was excellent – nourishing, beautifully prepared, and perfectly aligned with the holistic concept of the place.
Beyond the medical and therapeutic care, the additional experiences were truly special: the cacao ceremony was deeply touching, the yoga and meditation sessions were grounding and enriching, and the workshops and meeting with the Buddhist monk were profoundly meaningful and inspiring.
This is a very special place filled with heart, wisdom, and humanity.
A place we can wholeheartedly recommend to anyone seeking healing, depth, and authentic care.
With deep gratitude,
Dagmar and Oliver

Mein Aufenthalt war einer meiner schönsten Urlaube. Das Sanctuary verfügt über eine wunderschöne Anlage in sehr ruhiger Umgebung und mit traumhafter Natur, hübsche Zimmer, grossartige ayurvedische Behandlungen, einzigartige Verpflegung und ein unübertreffbar sympathisches Team sowie professionelle Ärzte. Ich bin sehr dankbar und werde ganz sicher wiederkommen. Noch nie fühlte ich mich nach 2 Wochen so erholt. DANKE!

I spent nearly two weeks at Sen Wellness Sanctuary, and it was a truly transformative experience. From the moment I arrived, I felt how much care and intention goes into creating a space that allows deep rest and genuine healing. The atmosphere is calm, grounding, and thoughtfully designed, with incredible attention to detail that supports relaxation on every level.
Health and wellbeing are approached with real seriousness and compassion here. Sam, the owner, is deeply involved and spends time with guests individually, offering very pragmatic, grounded advice that helps you understand your own journey rather than following a one-size-fits-all approach. His presence adds a lot of trust and clarity to the experience.
There is a beautiful sense of community, with around 20 guests sharing the journey together. It’s inspiring to connect with others who are all there with intention, and the group energy is both supportive and uplifting. Regular ceremonies add depth and meaning to the stay, and the 6 a.m. yoga sessions are an absolute highlight — challenging, energising, and surprisingly joyful.
The setting itself is stunning: the sanctuary sits between the ocean on one side and a peaceful lagoon on the other, creating a feeling of being held by nature. Sen’s commitment to Ayurvedic healing is exceptional — treatments are carefully explained, personalised, and rooted in genuine knowledge rather than vague wellness trends. The regular visits from a Buddhist monk bring an extra layer of inspiration and reflection that stays with you long after.
The food deserves a special mention: it is highly curated, sourced locally, and entirely free from processed ingredients, yet still incredibly tasty and diverse. Each meal feels nourishing, intentional, and full of flavour, proving that healing food can also be deeply enjoyable.
Sen Wellness is not just a retreat; it’s a place to reset, learn, and reconnect with yourself in a meaningful way. I left feeling lighter, clearer, and deeply grateful for the experience.

I highly recommend Sen Sanctuary as an amazing calm oasis to reset your body and mind. I stayed for 7 glorious nights and it has literally changed my life in a more positive intentional way.
The team did a great job of educating us on the Ayurvedic practices (cooking, philosophy, nutrition, lifestyle) and the treatments were wonderful (my first Ayurvedic retreat).
What also made the stay so special is the community that the staff are fostering, so if you are travelling solo then dint worry, you’ll meet some wonderful fellow travellers. As this isn’t really a place for 1 or 2 nights, you have time you really build connections.
The sanctuary is situated far off the beaten track in a nature reserve surrounded by a lagoon and the ocean. If you want to disconnect (from the world) yet feel more connected (with like minded people) then there isn’t a better place to go!
The experience from start to finish was superb - I can’t wait to come back.

I spent 10 days at this sanctuary on an Ayurvedic and yoga retreat, and it was a truly transformative experience.
The location is breathtaking - surrounded by jungle, lagoon, and sea, with an abundance of birds and wildlife. Being so immersed in nature felt deeply grounding and healing. The food was incredible: nourishing, comforting, and clearly prepared with so much care. Every meal felt like part of the healing process.
The Ayurvedic treatments were phenomenal. The doctors and massage therapists were attentive, kind, and genuinely invested in making each day the best possible experience. While the doctors didn’t speak much English, it never felt like a limitation - I was there to experience rather than analyse, and that felt right.
One of the most meaningful aspects of this retreat was the people I met. I formed deep connections and, through this shared space, learned more about myself in 10 days than I have in the past year.
I want to especially acknowledge Lucy and Rebecca, who led the yoga and healing sessions. They are truly incredible - deeply present, compassionate, and gifted at creating a safe, supportive space. Through both their practices and conversations, I was able to process my experience and access a level of healing I hadn’t reached before. They were a huge part of what made this retreat so special for me.
I do feel it’s important to gently mention one observation, as transparency matters. While my personal experience as a guest was very positive, I noticed moments that made me feel uncomfortable regarding how staff were treated, particularly by the retreat owner. Staff appeared fearful at times, and there was a noticeable separation between guests and staff during ceremonies. I also wasn’t clear about how tips were distributed, which left me uncertain. I share this not to detract from the healing I personally experienced, but because ethical treatment of staff is important to me and may matter to others considering a stay.
Overall, this retreat offered profound healing, connection, and reflection. It is a powerful place for those seeking deep rest, self-discovery, and immersion in nature.

I had an incredible stay at Sen Wellness Sanctuary. The place is truly a treasure. Everything is perfect. The rooms are beautiful, the food fantastic, the staff super kind, and everything very high quality. The location is incredibly peaceful, nestled between a lagoon and the beach. The treatments are wonderful, and Dr. Sam and all of the professionals are experts. This was by far my favorite part of my trip to Sri Lanka!
