Southern BeachesFounder Dr. Sam Kankanamge, a qualified and talented osteopath, built SEN Wellness Sanctuary to realize a lifelong dream of creating a place for guests to center themselves and focus on self-healing. Located on a secluded beach within a pristine National Park in Sri Lanka, nature plays an important role in SEN’s healing method, as such the property is designed to function harmoniously with its surroundings.
Specializing in tailored retreats that combine yoga with local and Ayurvedic therapies; when in residence, Sam himself offers world-class osteopathic treatments. Participate in daily sunrise yoga on the beach or in the stunning tree-top Shala which overlooks the lush jungle and the sparkling ocean beyond.
