After reading all the positive reviews here on trip advisor I decided to try out this Ayurveda Resort this time around. Unfortunately it fell short from my expectations I had from my stay. Most of the visitors at this resort are staying for an extended period of time and seems to return every year. This has triggered the management to... More

We decided that we deserve time off from every-day life to re-balance and re-invigorate the whole body system. And that’s just what we did while at the Barberyn Beach Ayurveda Resort. Located at the southern tip of Sri Lanka, it’s about a 3-hour drive from Colombo airport. It may seem a bit far, it used to be even further prior... More

Have just left from our second trip to the Barberyn Beach Resort. The resort is about a 2.5 to 3 hour hotel transfer from the airport to the Barberyn Resort. The resort is very much catering to the client who is interested in having a very tailored holiday centred around Ayurveda medicinal treatments. The Ayurveda centre is well run, clean... More

The resort is settled in a lush tropical garden overviewing the sea with access to two beaches, one is fine for swimming (although it might get a little rough), the other rather for enjoying the view and watching the local fishermen, it also offers breathtaking sunsets. I would not reccommend the resort to travellers not willing to book the whole... More

This could well be the best ayurveda resort in Sri Lanka. It is in a very pretty spot and set in large, lush and secluded grounds. Peace and quiet reign, only interrupted by the constant sights and sounds of birds and the occasional monkey. It is a place for regulars who come back year after a year -- a good... More

Had a wonderful two weeks at the resort. Potions, Pills, Pulses, Porridge and Paradise. It was fantastic, did Yoga in the morning, swam in the sea, back for a fantastic breakfast, down for my treatments, to the pool, back for lunch, more treatments, out on an adventure and back for dinner. No alcohol, carbs, meat, sugar..sounds horrific I know but... More

NOT a holiday more like a prison…. Buyer beware: 1. Most people who come here are Germans who are totally sold on Ayurveda solving all their health problems, so if you are not convinced this can make conversation difficult 2. The treatments are pretty restrictive: most of the time you are not supposed to swim or sunbathe, and there are... More

Positives: Excellent ayurveda program, staff are very aware and make every effort to keep you on the special diet etc. Treatments run professionally and are very relaxing. Beautiful location (hear waves crashing from room). Friendly staff. Negatives: For some reason aircon isnt included (which was standard at sri lankan guesthouses 1/5 of barberyn's price). Internet is being charged (disappointing when... More

I have been twice now to this resort and highly recommend it. The treatments are tailor made and are wonderful.The food is fantastic and management very friendly.Both times I have gone for 18 days and felt like a new person when leaving I look forward to visiting again end of this year. Steve Wood
