Amuna Ayurveda & Wellness Retreat has been honoured with the prestigious title of “Sri Lanka’s Best Wellness Retreat 2025” at the World Spa Awards - the global benchmark for excellence in spa and wellness tourism. This distinguished accolade places Amuna among the most revered wellness sanctuaries in the world, underscoring its unwavering commitment to authentic Ayurveda, transformational guest experiences, and exceptional standards in holistic healing.
Nestled in the heart of Sri Lanka’s Cultural Triangle, near the tranquil Kandalama Lake in Sigiriya, Amuna is an oasis of serenity where nature, culture, and ancient healing traditions converge. Designed with sustainability and mindfulness at its core, the retreat offers a deeply immersive experience with traditional Ayurveda treatment rooms, Shirodhara therapy spaces, herbal baths, and steam rooms - all guided by experienced Ayurvedic doctors and therapists. Each guest receives a personalised programme with treatments for detoxification, rejuvenation, stress and insomnia management, immune support, yoga, meditation, and nutrition - prepared using locally sourced ingredients.
Guests from across the globe consistently praise Amuna’s authenticity, genuine care, and peaceful ambiance, describing it as more than just a wellness retreat - a soulful journey of renewal and self-discovery. This international recognition from the World Spa Awards validates Amuna’s position as a trailblazer in Sri Lanka’s wellness tourism sector, and as a destination that seamlessly fuses ancient wisdom with modern comfort.
“This award is not just a win for Amuna, but for Sri Lanka as a whole,” said Mr. Rohan Karr, Managing Director of Hayleys Leisure. “It reflects our belief in Ayurveda’s power to heal, to transform, and to connect people to something deeper - and it motivates us to continue nurturing sustainable, purpose-driven travel.”
As wellness travel continues to rise globally, this accolade also shines a spotlight on Sri Lanka’s growing appeal as a premier wellness destination, attracting travellers in search of meaning, connection, and authentic healing. For Amuna, the award is both a milestone and a promise - to remain a beacon of holistic wellness and a sanctuary where the journey to balance begins.
