What to expect in this Yoga retreat with a pool in Sri Lanka?

Drawing on influences from Dutch and British colonial architecture, this Villa provides a real glimpse into history. Seamlessly blending Sri Lankan heritage with contemporary design, the atmospheric five-suite Villa pays homage to its original features: a simple harmony of modern luxe with local charm and style. The Villa name recalls the meaning of “illusion” in Sanskrit. The stunning result blends period features with a unique style: enhanced space, sky-high ceilings, open views, sleek lines, and supremely comfortable living.

• THEKKA: Thekka in the Old House opens out to the sky-blue pool. Original 25ft high ceilings, original intricate lattice work, a towering kingsize 4 poster bed draped by a mosquito net and antique fittings, evoke that colonial chic atmosphere, so unique to Maya. Thekka and Khumbuk are the perfect rooms to book if you are coming with your family.
• KHUMBUK: Khumbuk in the Old House, opens out straight to the sky-blue pool. This blissfully quiet room has a view of the garden. The beautifully high ceilings provide space and good ventilation. Similar in style and layout, Khumbuk is opposite Thekka in the Old House. These 2 rooms are ideal if you are coming to spend your holiday at the Villa with your family.

• AMBA: Amba’s spacious suite in the New Wing is an embodiment of modern luxe: clean lines, a dashingly decorated living space and a large luxury bathroom. The sliding doors in both the room and the bathroom open out to a large private courtyard – an invitation to simply relax and take in the surrounding nature.
• EHELA: Next to Amber, Ehela’s spacious suite in the New Wing is quintessentially modern: elegant interiors, stylishly decorated living space and a large luxury bathroom. The sliding doors opening out to a large private courtyard are an invitation to simply relax and take in the surrounding nature. Identical to Amber but more private, this is one of our most popular rooms.
• KOHOMBA: Enjoy the privacy of your own garden and courtyard. Finely decorated and retaining the sleek style of the Villa, Kohomba’s sliding doors open out to a covered courtyard, extending directly to its own private garden. Tranquility on your doorstep.

“We stayed at the villa for six nights. Our driver had trouble finding it, so be careful to follow the hotel’s instructions. We had a suite in the newer part of the hotel, which I think is the best part to be in. The room was lovely, with a nice en-suite. The Property is completely quiet and isolated.  The breakfasts were good; the egg hoppers were very nice, though they overcook the omelettes unless you tell them not to, and only toast one side of the bread unless you ask. The dinners were lovely. We always went for the Sri Lankan option. You will need less than they suggest. The garden is very peaceful, with comfortable hammocks which are great to relax in. There are wild peacocks, monkeys, and if you look carefully you will see monitor lizards.

The hotel has a very good tuk-tuk driver, Kumar, who makes an effort to show you as much as possible on any journey. Staff were all friendly. The masseuse was good, and treatments were outdoors, but private. Occupancy was low during our stay which added to the quiet aspect. We would be happy staying again.”

“Peace & serenity amongst paddy fields” – Date of stay: October 2017

“We had a beautiful stay at the Villa, thanks to not only the unbelievably relaxed setting but the outstanding staff team there. From the moment we walked in we knew we would love it. A huge garden scattered with hammocks and deckchairs plus the yoga hut looking out into the fields! The pool, the breakfast, and everything in between was perfect and we recommend a stay at Maya to anyone visiting Sri Lanka.”
