Villa My Way
A small stay among the palms
On Sri Lanka’s southern coast, Villa My Way keeps its scale intimate: six bungalows sit among coconut palms and tropical gardens. The greenery gives the place a distinctly sheltered feel, while its coastal setting makes it a quieter alternative to a large hotel stay. The bungalows are the clearest feature here, and the atmosphere is shaped as much by the surrounding palms and gardens as by the accommodation itself. Retreat formats and meditation instruction can vary, so it is wise to check what a particular stay includes before making plans. Ask the host about sessions, meals and retreat length for your dates. For travelers drawn to a small-scale setting and time among tropical plants, Villa My Way offers a calm base in the Weligama area, with an unhurried, close-to-nature character.
Highlights
