Not a resort.
Not a yoga school.

Yoga Bee is a family-run boutique retreat in Dharga Town, a quiet village on Sri Lanka's southwest coast — ten minutes from Bentota beach and about 75 minutes from Colombo Airport.

The retreat has four private rooms around a central courtyard garden. Danushka teaches every yoga session himself — morning and evening, every day. His wife Kanchana cooks every meal from scratch. There is no staff rotation, no substitute teachers, no anonymous check-in.

With a maximum of eight guests, the atmosphere is closer to staying with a family than checking into a wellness hotel. Many guests say it is the most personal retreat they have ever experienced.

Yoga shala at Yoga Bee Retreat Sri Lanka

Six things that make
the difference.

🏡

Four rooms only

The retreat has exactly four private rooms. That is not a limitation — it is the point. Small enough for everyone to know each other by the second morning.

🧘

Danushka teaches every class

No substitute teachers. No rotation. Danushka leads every session himself — adapting each class to who is in the room that day.

📅

Arrive any day

Ongoing retreat — no fixed start dates. Choose when to come and how long to stay. From 3 days to 10 days and beyond.

🛺

Beach tuk-tuk, daily

Every morning, a complimentary tuk-tuk takes you to Bentota beach. Sun loungers reserved for Yoga Bee guests. Ten minutes from the shala.

🍽️

Homemade Sri Lankan food

Kanchana cooks breakfast and dinner from scratch, every day. Vegetarian, fresh, Sri Lankan. Guests mention the food almost as often as the yoga.

🌿

A home, not a hotel

Run by Danushka and his family. Guests consistently say it felt like being welcomed into someone's home — warm, personal, and genuine.

Danushka, yoga teacher at Yoga Bee Retreat Sri Lanka

Danushka

Danushka has spent over 20 years in yoga practice and more than a decade as the resident yogi at a five-star Maldivian resort. He holds a 500hr Yoga Alliance certification.

What he brings to every session is rare: the ability to read a room. He adapts from the very first class — whether you are a complete beginner, recovering from an injury, or an experienced practitioner looking to go deeper.

He runs the retreat with his wife Kanchana. Every meal, every session, every morning tuk-tuk is something they oversee personally. There is no team behind the scenes running things while they manage. They are the retreat.

"He listens before he teaches — and adapts from the very first session."
