Second visit to this wellness resort well worth the trip from the United States will be coming back again next year the natural surroundings are unparalleled. I go to wellness spas in the states and they do not compare. The staff goes above and beyond. Ad hoc had a quick party for my dad which they accommodated that morning. Yoga twice a day that can be utilized at any level. I am a doctor and got a Ayverdic consultation from their physicians on staff and that was amazing. I felt like I really learned a lot. Next time I want to go back and do a weeklong detox, meet lots of people there who enjoyed their experience. The only part that I found unpleasant was the fact that the restrooms in your hotel room do not have doors on them this is annoying. The birdhouse views are worth the extra the mist in the morning and watching the sunrise and set is a spectacular experience.

Luxury is an understatement beyond words. The tranquility, the landscape , the peace , overwhelmed me with so much joy. The staff were so kind, the food was made with so much love. Massages were incredible. Can’t recommend this place enough, worth every penny

This is really something different from everything you know. Secluded resort in the mountain. Contemporary architecture - concrete, metal and wood. Amazing views from the villas. Gourmet food. Spa center is very good. Massages - superb. Yoga for advanced, but you can also have private sessions if it is too hard for you.

If you want something different go to Santani. Contemporary edgy architecture, gourmet food, amazing nature, yoga sessions, spa with Ayurveda massages. Real wellness resort in the mountains near Kandy. The villas with mountain view are out of this world. Peaceful and relaxing.

Santani, what can we say. We felt well and truly looked after and we will absolutely be back. The surroundings are breathtaking, the food completely unique, and every day something new. We went for all inclusive, with drinks, and it was worth every penny - our glasses were never empty, and the wine and cocktails were some of the best we had our whole trip (big shout out to Santani’s bar staff who could really smash an Arrack Sour). We tried the sunrise and sunset yoga, which was varied and good for all levels, and with the background noise of the jungle it’s really something special. The spa looks out to the forest and lake - like something out of a magazine. The team couldn’t do enough for us, always on hand to answer questions, bring drinks and snacks to the pool, make sure your meal met every dietary requirement and was different and varied every day. We want to say a huge thanks to everyone - this was our favourite spot on our honeymoon. A special mention to Shashi for looking after us and recommending places to visit for the next stop on our trip. Thank you.

We stayed 2 nights at this very unusual hotel up in the hills from Kandy. Its design makes you feel a part of the local environment. Our bedroom was very comfortable with a terrific view of the hills opposite. The central dining and sitting area was spacious and comfortable and the quality of the food was very good. This is definitely a retreat for Yoga and Spa enthusiasts and for walkers. In poor weather ( which we experienced ) it can feel rather remote. If you are going to use the Spa facilities think about taking a package as the individual price of treatments was much higher than we had experienced in other locations. We took a guided walk with their naturalist guide and it was very enjoyable- they helped us with special socks to avoid leeches which are pretty much part of the local habitat when it is wet- don’t be put off by that though! Altogether a good stay but be careful to think through your needs to book the right length of stay and package.

We had a great stay here. Shashi our waiter was always so helpful and great to us on our honeymoon. We were made to feel very special and the resort is stunning with so much nature around you making you feel so relaxed and peaceful. Really recommend this place.

I stayed at this hotel in 2019, and at the time, I had a much better experience than I did now. Unfortunately, despite the significant price increase (150% more), the quality has dropped considerably. For a hotel that advertises itself as a wellness destination, the environment does not provide the tranquility one would expect. The constant noise from the restaurant, both from the kitchen and the staff, made the experience unpleasant. Additionally, disturbances caused by guests in the next room during the evening and by the staff early in the morning further disrupted the sense of relaxation. Another negative aspect was the internet, which was extremely slow—something unacceptable for a hotel charging 800 euros per night. The cleanliness was also subpar, with the room windows, both top and bottom, visibly dirty. To make matters worse, at the restaurant, we were asked to keep the cutlery between courses, which is not appropriate for a service of this standard. Overall, the hotel seems to have lost focus on customer experience and the essence of a wellness retreat. I do not recommend staying here until these issues are addressed, especially given the high cost.
