A stay like no other! Being one with nature, tasting amazing foods from a top chef or winding down with a yoga session or massage, whatever you experience there, is good for the soul! More than anything the amazing staff make the stay even more memorable. We had a wonderful stay we will never forget and took home a lot of learnings and memories. Would recommend to anyone who want to take a jouney inwards and fully want to spoil yourself for a few days!
A magical hidden 💎
The staff and the service is one of the best for us being in the hospitality business..
The few negative reviews as I can see they choose the wrong product..
This is a unique opportunity to be here.
Thank you Santani we enjoyed every moment.
Food was amazing 👏
Hi 👍👍👍👍👍
One of best Hotels i have ever stayed in. The staff was incredibly attentive and knowledgeable. The food was delicious and catered to all tastes and dietary restrictions. The spa was amazing and serene. The steam bath/sauna combination as well as the subsequent massage were world class. The architecture of the hotel guarantees tranquility and privacy throughout. The rooms were always clean and offered an amazing mountain view. After five days at the hotel, I feel relaxed and reenergized :)
Santani is not the cheapest, but definitely the best option in Sri Lanka !
Spent 5 nights at Santani to follow the Ayurveda treatment package and it was wonderful. The place is very calm, serene and luxurious too. The Ayurveda programme include daily check ins with the doctor, an individual meal plan (5 star cuisine), daily yoga sessions (5 stars for the best yoga teacher, Rahul, and the beautiful yogashala), and 3 hours in the wellness resort every day (6 stars for the beautiful architecture, indoor salt pool, sauna, steam, and the 2 hour massage treatments - different every time). The nature walks/hikes were nice too and the naturalists were skillful at spotting and telling about the wildlife. I underwent the cleansing and felt very relaxed and happy to spend the hefty price tag. 5 stars, highly recommended, top notch.
Great location and fantastic food.
I love the food and how it served..
Only thing is it's getting bit dull when comes to the evening time. It becase the units are distance from the restaurant and you have to walk..
You get sauna and steam bath.. Great experience.
Not worth the hassle
Good jungle hide out and a place for hill climb & hiking.
Very good welcome. Very good staff.

My husband and I visited this beautiful resort in Oct'17. Santani Wellness is absolutely true to its name in every way. The property is spread across 48 acres and boasts of its splendid views of the Knuckles foothills. Right from the wellness & spa facilities to their undying service, everything was just beyond perfect. Their team member Srimaal, at the restaurant, was one of the most pleasing and helpful persons we ever met. He took such good care that we felt spoilt at the end of our trip and didn't have the heart to leave. Even the management team Mahesh, Chaminda & Manish took special care and sort to all our needs and made us feel absolutely comfortable and at home. Lastly, our most enriching experience was the scrumptious taste to perfection food/meals most lovingly prepared by Chef Wajira Gamage. It left us speechless. One of the best by far. In all, an experience to remember for life. Thank you Santani team for such great hospitality and love. We miss you.
My wife and I spent 3 memorable nights at Santani Resort and SPA.
Beside the 360 degrees magnificent view, excellent service and resort concept there was a person to appreciate his efforts in maintaining a superior hospitality standards; Mr. Mahesh the F&B-Operations manager. He was always meeting us and greeting us with his lovely smile.
We are not going to be completely fair without mentioning the amazing Chef Wajira an expert in Gastronomy; in our opinion he is the best fine dining chef in whole Srilanka!
This is our second time in Srilanka for 2017, and amongst 6 other 5 stars rated hotels we tried, we adored and loved the western food offered by Chef Wajira. A chef who prepare his food with love to impress us in every plate on our table as if it is a piece of art.
Our trip was not to be fulfilled without trying their awesome SPA facility.
We are impressed by the tranquillity, romantic atmosphere and the Santani unique concept itself.
Our advise to any one seeking something so special in Srilanka is to spend a couple of nights there-worth trying surely.
This resort is situated in one of beautiful place in sri lanka
Do not miss the opportunity to visit Santani. One if the best experiences we've had at a retreat. Great remote site, fantastic spa facility and massages, great yoga and DELICIOUS food. You won't want to leave.
Remote gateway, very quite place with nice staff.

Very beautiful resort with breathtaking scenery.. friendly and helpful staff.. one of the must try resort in Sri Lanka..
Mixed feelings about this place. The marketing on their webpage is very professional and the dream of the owners are really good but in the reality with all the concrete building blocks I could not feel the back to the nature concept. What is nice: the restaurant and the gourmet food is exceptional and amazing!!! The chef should be awarded the Bocuse d'Or!!! The waiters are very nice and service in the restaurant is professional. What is really awful: the spa. There is tons of concrete walls, no flowers, no candles, no reception. Even if you have an appointment there is nobody welcoming you, you have to find your way in the 3 level pure concrete bunker. If you have the treatment when it's dark the only light is the strong ceiling sport light which are strait into your eyes. The place is as an extra plus is very dangerous, the constructors were not aware of which material they should use outside. The spa stairs are made of concrete treated with some shiny material which makes them slippery when it rains, and it rains a lot there all year long. I injured my leg very badly which destroyed the rest of my holiday.
