Aarunya Nature Resort & Spa Featured in Condé Nast Johansens

Aarunya Nature Resort & Spa oozes calm and tranquillity perched in the green hills near Kandy amongst 10 acres of spice gardens and tea plantations overlooking the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Knuckles mountains. Aarunya means first rays of the sun in Sanskrit. Aptly, guests can watch the sunrise from their private pool villa, and with just 10 villas across the resort, you’ll never feel overcrowded or overwhelmed. The Aarogya Spa & Wellness Centre (Aarogya’is derived from a Sanskrit word for complete well-being) offers tailored wellness programmes with private yoga sessions in the dedicated yoga pavilion. In addition, guests may experience a range of Ayurvedic and Balinese-inspired therapies, including aromatherapy inspired by the spice gardens. In between, go on a guided nature walk, explore the area by bicycle, and end the day with a candlelit (and healthy!) dinner under the stars.
