"SURF LESSONS - Catch your first wave or conquer your fears of a barreling high wall. We welcome all levels of surfers from complete novices to old salty pro's. Surfing is so profoundly soothing for the mind yet challenging for the body. The perfect combination! We love our waves, we respect the ocean and we live for the sunrise sessions to get out and shred with our guests along the endless breaks, starting from just 10 minute drive away. All of our instructors are fully certified by the International Surfing Association and are trained in surf rescue "
MASSAGE - Our Ayurvedic massage treatments offer an experience that focuses on deep relaxation, stress relief and the release of emotional blockages. Your treatment will be personalized with the use of Ayurvedic oils such as Germanium, Lavender, Cedarwood and Ylang Ylang, which help to calm the nervous system, lower blood pressure, release emotional and physical tension within the body and improve blood circulation. You'll also come away with a healthy glow and hydrated soft skin!
SUP RIVER TRIP - The mystical river tours attract people from all over Sri Lanka due to the YOGA - We offer a range of various yoga classes to suit all levels and abilities. Your presence is all that truly matters, but for those wishing to deepen their practice, you will have the option to do so. Our yoga timetable is created by moving with the warmth of the rising sun and cooling the body towards the evening. Our mornings consist of Vinyasa Flow to awaken, build strength and prepare the mind for your day ahead. Evening classes will consist of Yin Yoga or Restorative Yoga which works on relaxing more deeply into the postures. We source wonderful teachers for their clear guidance and high level of integrality.
MEDITATION - Take a deep seat and join in a calming practice guaranteed to switch off the hectic travel journey and set you up for a clearer way forward. Sometimes these classes are guided with an intention for the whole group. Other times, we just simply listen to nature that surrounds us. We usually like these classes to be in various locations that are special to us. Or we will come together before our sunrise Vinyasa Yoga!

Nirbana Retreat Reviews
I had heard amazing reviews from friends but this did not disappoint. Was absolutely the best place we have ever stayed and we are booked to return next year. The venue and food i cannot fault, absolutely spectacular (and in abundance),but more importantly the staff treated us with such respect and were so kind and helpful at all times day or night. The area nirbana is situated in is quiet and calm yet not far in a tuktuk to the centre of ahangama. I would reccommend to anyone.
Annie
It's hard to explain but we have enjoyed 9 days in a fantastic place, luxury but chilled, starting with the owners, all people have made an unforgettable experience for us! It is a place for pure relaxation while still enjoying perfect Yoga classes and surfing with other guests. My highlight maybe was the service and the staff who were first class. Oh, another highlight is the food, unbeatable local cuisine. Thanks, Mark and Heather and all the Nirbana staff! We, my wife and myself will definitely come back to paradise! Best, Sabine and Stefan

Nirbana is a beautiful quiet place by a river. An ideal place for meditation and yoga. The rooms are spacious and cool some with outdoor showers. The food is fabulous, the staff cannot do enough for you and nothing is too much problem. The manager Hero was able to arrange, sort out or fix anything. We did Yin, Zen, flow, aerial and paddle board yoga while we were there. A truest magical place
Sheila B
What can I say this place is stunning. Its perfect in every way,its just beautiful. The AMAZING staff from the managers to the superb chefs every single one of them are so attentive. They have your every need covered. They go above and beyond. We were waited on 24/7. The food is out of this world. I have booked again for 2021 my favourite place to be. Thank you to hiru and team for an amazing experience

Amazing location.... I have been travelling in Sri Lanka for years and Nirbana is really my favorite destination in the south. The rooms are well furnished with a nice tasty touch... Food is unbelivable... The entire proprety is gorgeous ... so greeeeen and calm.... the pool, the yoga shala...dining area ...everything is like in dream... The staff is very professional,friendly and available at anytime.... Ahahgama is a nice town too, 10 minutes from Nirbana, beaches, surf... I can't wait to be back 🙂

If you are looking for a quiet paradise, Nirbana is what you need. here you are in the heart of nature among the jungle by a quiet river. An ideal place for meditation and yoga. The villa also can arrange surfing lessons and paddle boarding along the river. The style and combination of details simply delights. The chef does not only cook local dishes, but may surprise you with top-quality lasagna. Hero’s manager has become for us a real hero and a great conversationalist. The person who will solve any problem for you. Thanks a lot him for that. This place is not for parties, but for quiet conversations around the fireplace, complete relaxation and recovery. You'll love it. Come and get your own experience.

Nirbana is pure paradise. The setting is stunningly beautiful and super-relaxed. I spent days in my favourite lounge chair overlooking the river and lush jungle with monkeys, peacocks, monitors, beautiful birdlife... The house, rooms and pool are perfectly designed to provide privacy as well as company - whatever you choose. And the food, what to say? Divine! Sri Lankan with all twists you can imagine - curry, bowls, egg-hoppers, … a truly healthy-tasty-pretty feast for breakfast, lunch and dinner – and the cheese-cake 😉 Thanks to Indiko’s cooking class, I can now make my own curries at home whenever I get Nirbana-homesick.

Nirbana was absolutely pure heaven. I was recommended this location through a surf travel blogger and noticed it was still quite new but took the chance anyways. Nirbana completely surpassed any expectations I had. The entire staff from the chefs to the house cleaners to the Ops manager to the Yoga instructor were top notch professionals, incredibly friendly, super accommodating and just made sure I had nothing short of a phenomenal experience. The rooms are lovely and peaceful, the pool is stunning, and the location is amazing. I have nothing bad to say about my experience.
