More about Villa Velmarie
Dining at Villa Velmarie is not only about nourishment but also an essential part of the healing journey. Rooted in Ayurvedic nutritional philosophy, meals are thoughtfully curated to support each guest’s individual wellness path. The retreat offers a predominantly vegetarian menu, prepared using fresh, locally sourced produce, herbs, and spices known for their therapeutic properties. During Ayurvedic treatment programs, meals are customized according to one's dosha (body constitution), helping balance the body's energies while enhancing digestion and overall vitality. The food is free from processed ingredients, with a strong emphasis on purity, taste, and nutritional balance. Guests dine in an airy, open-plan pavilion that overlooks the gardens, creating a serene and mindful dining experience. The staff ensures that meals are not only healthful but also beautifully presented and deeply satisfying, making every meal a continuation of the retreat’s holistic philosophy.
Villa Velmarie offers a restful environment designed to slow the pace of life and encourage deep rejuvenation. Leisure here means reconnecting with nature, self, and simplicity. The outdoor pool is a centerpiece of the garden, bordered by swaying coconut palms and flowering plants, offering an idyllic spot for a gentle swim, sunbathing, or reading by the water’s edge. The expansive garden invites peaceful walks, barefoot grounding, or meditation in nature. For those seeking quiet exploration, Maggona Beach is just a short stroll away—a quiet stretch of sand ideal for morning walks, sunset reflection, or sea bathing. The daily rhythm of the retreat includes yoga and meditation sessions in shaded garden spaces or purpose-built areas, enhancing guests’ sense of peace. Unlike high-energy resorts, Villa Velmarie is intentionally designed to offer minimal stimulation, helping guests rest their senses and enjoy undisturbed, mindful leisure time.
The Ayurveda Centre at Villa Velmarie is a dedicated sanctuary for authentic, personalized healing based on centuries-old traditions of Sri Lankan and Indian Ayurveda. Upon arrival, each guest receives a detailed consultation with an experienced Ayurvedic doctor, who evaluates their dosha and designs a customized treatment plan that may include internal herbal medications, external therapies, and lifestyle recommendations. Treatments at the centre range from full-body Abhyanga massages with warm medicated oils, Shirodhara (streaming oil on the forehead), Pinda Sweda (herbal poultice therapy), and steam baths to Panchakarma detox procedures for deep internal cleansing. All therapies are conducted by skilled and compassionate therapists under the doctor's supervision, ensuring both safety and effectiveness. The centre itself is a calming, purpose-built space with treatment rooms infused with the soothing aromas of herbs and oils. Silence, ritual, and precision are respected throughout each session, creating a profound sense of trust and relaxation. This is not a commercial spa — it's a healing space rooted in ancient wisdom and guided by the principle of bringing the body, mind, and spirit back into harmony.

Beautiful rest and treatment! When we first came to Ceylon at the Villa Velmarie Hotel- I didn't believe people came six or more times. And here's 2025-- we've had our third consecutive year of vacation and treatment at Villa Velmari. It's a complete relaxation and recovery complex! Everything is just wonderful-- soulful staff, delicious food, cleanliness and connection with nature. Now we have no doubt we will return here again! Huge thanks to owners and employees for their sensitivity and care! I recommend it!
