Guest Reviews
- Anke (7/5): Erholsam aber der Ayurveda - Teil war eher durchschnittlich - Tolle Hotelanlage, sehr freundliches Personal, um die Gäste sehr bemüht
Tolles Zimmer mit Seesicht, auch wenn schon etwas in die Jahre gekommen Massagen eher durchschnittlich
Qualität des Essens sehr gut aber wenig Abwechslung
zu oft Buffet (auf Homepage sieht es eher nach servierten Mahlzeiten aus), bei servierten Mahlzeiten wurde das Essen nicht auf die persönlichen Empfehlungen angepasst (zB sollte ich Abends weniger essen, bekam aber das volle Menu)
- Vladimir (10/5): -
- Tea (10/5): - Staying at this Ayurvedic center was one of the most beautiful and nourishing experiences of my life. From the very first moment, I felt completely at home – surrounded by peace, silence, and genuine care. The atmosphere is deeply calming, the staff is incredibly devoted, and every treatment was performed with such attention and love.
A special highlight was the food – absolutely outstanding. Chef Shen’s kitchen deserves its own praise: every meal was not only perfectly aligned with Ayurvedic principles, but also full of flavor, creativity, and warmth. You can truly feel the care and intention in every dish.
I wholeheartedly recommend this place to anyone seeking deep rest, healing, and a true sense of home away from home.
- Sergio Alessandro (9/5): - Pool & Beach & Treatments
- Laurence Hakizinka (9/5): Une expérience ayurvédique exceptionnelle, profondément ressourçante, portée par une équipe humaine et médicale remarqua - Tout. L’expérience a été exceptionnelle du début à la fin. Le personnel est remarquable, d’une gentillesse, d’un professionnalisme et d’une attention rares. Les médecins ayurvédiques sont extraordinaires, très compétents, profondément humains et réellement investis dans le bien-être des patients. Les soins sont de très haut niveau. La chambre était spacieuse, très bien décorée, avec une belle vue, et le cadre général est apaisant et ressourçant. La fête de Noël était magnifiquement organisée, chaleureuse et élégante. En fin de séjour, le dîner privé en quatre services qui m’a été offert a été une attention exceptionnelle, très raffinée et profondément touchante. Honnêtement, rien de significatif. L’expérience a été globalement irréprochable.
- Helen (10/5): Great Ayurveda in a beautiful environment - I’ve done Ayurveda treatments several times in Kerala, and spent a lot of time thinking about which I prefer, because they’re both great, but I think that this place comes out on top. My stay at Heritance Ayurveda was incredibly rejuvenating. It’s a beautiful hotel, each room with a stunning view of the gardens and ocean. So peaceful. The Ayurveda centre is the spa environment of my dreams. Utter tranquility. The food is nutritious and delicious. It’s a wonderful thing to eat a huge plate of food knowing it’s healing your body! The rooms are huge, comfortable, exceptionally clean, and have spacious, private balconies. But the main advantage here is the entire staff. Every single member — from the man at the gate to reception to the pool attendants and restaurant staff — was completely delightful, helpful, and towed the perfect line between friendly and non-intrusive. I felt so relaxed just going about my business and never felt watched or judged. In particular, the housekeeping men are the best I’ve come across. So sweet! And they went to great lengths to sort as problem out for me when I mentioned something, and I hadn’t even expected it was solvable. The chef and restaurant staff took note of my food preferences and brought me gluten free roti without me even asking. The reception team were always smiling and helpful. But most especially I was grateful to my kind, gentle therapists — Myomi, Geethika, Dileni and Hirosha — as well as the wonderful special masseuse, the angel who mopped my brow during stream baths, and the super acupuncturist. With the last and biggest shout out to my awesome, clever, funny and compassionate doctor, Dr Nimesha, who took so much time to help me get the treatment I needed and left me pain free and, miraculously, for once, not tired. I can’t wait to return. The only thing I’d have preferred is softer beds, but I know that’s just preference.
- Adam (10/5): -
- Junichi (9/5): じいさん、ばーさんとともに贅沢三昧 - 全食付き、バラエティに富んだビュッフェ形式、アユルベーダのトリートメント一日2回、Yoga講習付きビーチが庭先に広がっている 値段がもっと安ければいうことないけど、元々ここに泊まる予定はなかったが、サイクロンのためネゴンボの予約していたホテルがクローズ、慌てて代替えとしてここをとったが、ちょっと高いけどと思ったが、税金+サービス料を見落としてため、えらく高いものに付いた。
- Guest (8/5): - Das Buffet ist reichhaltig. Allerdings wird es bei einem längeren Aufenthalt etwas eintönig. Hier wäre etwas mehr Abwechslung angebracht.
Die Anwendungen sind sehr gut und die Ärztinnen sind sehr kompetent und gehen auf die jeweiligen Bedürfnisse gut ein.
Generell ist die komplette Staff unglaublich freundlich, so dass man sich sehr wohl fühlt. Die aufdringlichen "Business Männer" direkt vor dem Hotel. Die sitzen den ganzen Tag hinter dem Zaun und ich kam mir immer sehr beobachtet vor. Besonders wenn man keine der Dienstleistungen in Anspruch nehmen möchte. Man kann keinen Schritt nach draußen zum Strand für einen ungestörten Strandspaziergang machen, ohne dass man dauernd angequatscht wird, ob man Schmuck, Ausflüge oder sonstige Aktivitäten möchte. Ich empfinde das als sehr störend, obwohl ich natürlich weiß, dass die Herren auch Geld verdienen müssen.
- JOANNA (10/5): Amazing Ayurvedic hotel in a beautiful setting! - It was my first visit at Heritance Ayrveda and the experience has significantly exceeded my expectations! Starting from the arrival - as soon as you get through the gates of the hotel, it's as if you've found yourself in an oasis of peace and tranquility! Beautiful architecture (by the famous Geoffrey Bawa), manicured trees and plants, overwhelming feeling of relaxation. Check-in process was very smooth, front-office staff very cordial and professional. I stayed in a suite which was very spacious, beautifully decorated and very comfortable - can only recommend!
Food was exceptional, and as this was my very first Ayurvedic stay I wasn't sure what to expect. There was plenty of choice, all beautifully featured in the buffet with ample choice of super fresh fruit & vegetables. Staff at the restaurant couldn't have been nicer and they truly added to the overall fabulous holiday experience!
Aurvedic Centre with all the treatments was an absolute highlight of the stay. Every evening we would get the treatment plan for next day with 4-5 different treatments - all amazing and super professional!
To sum up - I could not have wished for a better stay and I'm already looking forward to come back to this beautiful property!
- Toshiyuki (8/5): -
- Sasaki (8/5): 不思議な空間と体験 - 海の波の音が心地よい シャワーの温度調節が不安定で急に熱湯が出たり、冷たくなったりと体が温まることがなかつたのが1番困った
- shimizu (10/5): -
- Ella (9/5): Great stay - Treatments, kind nice people, nature,food Bed too soft, pillows too big bulky, need renovation for bathroom and flooring
- Bernard (8/5): -
- Ahmad (10/5): Exceptional -
- Amal (9/5): Superb -
- David (8/5): Brilliant treatments, too - Staff, treatments and the food Rooms are in need of a refurbishment. Bathroom was not in good condition
- Ronnie (9/5): Personal attention, very good treatments and good food. - - Heritance Ayurveda is a beautiful accommodation.
- Food is very extensive.
- Rooms are clean.
- Treatments are very good and varied.
Staff is very friendly. Everybody gives you personal attention. The doctor, the treatment team, people from the catering, everybody treats you like you are the only guest. Introduction could be a little better. It takes some time to find out how everything is working.
- Susan (8/5): Very good - Standard room was fairly basic Amazing treatments and location
- Vladimir (10/5): Exceptional -
- Qutaiba (8/5): Very good -
- Julia (8/5): Good Ayurveda in great location - The location is great directly in the beach. As it’s an Ayurveda hotel the atmosphere is very calm and relaxing. The Ayurveda treatments were plenty and of good quality. Even on a short stay (we stayed 4 nights) we received 2 doctor consultations, medicine and at least 4 treatments /day. The variety of food was also good. Overall we had a lovely stay. The Ayurvedic center needs a refurbishment as is really run down. The mattress in the room was very hard.
- Andreas (8/5): Very good -
- Ratna (10/5): Excellent ambience - The staff was very friendly and prompt. Treatments were excellent.
- Zina (7/5): Great Location, not so great service - Great location by the beach, great Ayurvedic food and some good treatments. The best about this resort was the food. Great chef and kitchen staff. The front office manager helped us in fixing the safe and meeting all our requests. The doctors were very good but the center staff need to be more organized There were some mix ups in schedules due to poor coordination. The resort looks super fancy, with nice rooms and a big balcony. The place looked posh, but the service was a total letdown. We call the reception multiple times for help, they respond nicely but no one shows up, I.e. we reported that someone took our umbrella from the Ayuerveda center and asked for another 2 for my cousin and I. They said it’s a “procedure” not to give us 2 so we said ok. We waited for 2 days, called 4 times and never saw an umbrella. My cousin forgot the key inside the room. She walked 4 times to the reception and back to remind them she is waiting. Nobody showed up until I came and opened for her myself. We requested an iron twice and it didn’t come until I myself spoke to housekeeper who was outside. We requested a buggy that never came and we walked with heavy bags complained to the receptionist, who only shrugged her shoulders instead of offering help.
I suggest to the management of this resort to train their staff and not only managers to offer a service that meets the promise of luxury. Else it is not.
- Samta (9/5): Serious ayurveda retreat with no caffeine and no alcohol - This Geoffrey Bawa designed property is simply stunning. With frangipani trees and good-sized rooms, one feels instantly relaxed. Staff are friendly and competent. Food is delicious. Great sunset views from the beach. What would have made my review a 10 on 10:
If more information about the ayurveda was forthcoming from the hotel before our stay. As most of the guests are repeat visitors, I guess they don't realise how much more first-time visitors would like to know.
- Noel (7/5): good overall but weak management - the location on the beach , treatments , great food touts out the front and lack of direction by management about the tipping system
