About Vimansa

A welcoming international retreat sanctuary where mindfulness, warm Sri Lankan hospitality, and natural tranquility come together.

A Place to Stay, Experience & Reconnect

Our vision is to develop Vimansa into a welcoming international wellness and retreat destination in Sri Lanka. A place where visitors can stay comfortably, discover the beauty and culture of Sri Lanka, enjoy peaceful surroundings and have the opportunity to take time for themselves.

We want Vimansa to be more than just accommodation. We want it to be a place where people can slow down, experience Sri Lanka, and create meaningful memories that stay with them forever.

Set in a calm and welcoming environment in Ambalangoda, Vimansa offers comfortable accommodation together with opportunities to experience the beauty, culture and peaceful lifestyle of Sri Lanka.
