Sen Wellness Sanctuary, Tangalle
The Cabanas
The luxury low key cabanas are an original design by Brazilian-American architect Adriana Arbex. They mimic the natural shape of the conical shell to draw earth energy up from the land to be experienced by guests whilst staying in the rooms. The main building is also designed in a conical and circular shape which moves energy around in a manner that can be palpably felt by our guests. Surrounded by mangroves, the lagoon and a glorious stretch of golden palm-fronted beach (also home to a magnificent turtle nesting site), the cabanas have been sensitively designed with respect to this natural environment and to protect the amazing wildlife. Sen Wellness Sanctuary natural project went through an Environmental Impact Assessment and was granted approval by the Sri Lankan government for mitigation of environmental damage. Everything is built on stilts to allow the flow of animal migration, no heavy machinery was employed in the development and all exteriors and interiors are of local craftsmanship using local materials, sensitive to the beautiful natural home of the Sanctuary.

About Sen Wellness Sanctuary, Tangalle
Sen Wellness Clinic, an established holistic clinic in the medical district of central London has proudly opened its doors to Sen Wellness Sanctuary, Sri Lanka. Founder and osteopath, Dr Sam Kankanamge, became aware of a need for a special place to self-heal and nourish and so created Sen Wellness Sanctuary. Sam left his Sri Lankan homeland for London, aged 18; his dream has been to return to his country to build a sanctuary that creates a space for growth for all those who visit, including the local community.
Sam has drawn on his own life experience, as well as his professional experience of holistic healthcare, to build his dream sanctuary. With the help of a network of extraordinary friends, colleagues, patients and his brother Sudheera, and London-based colleague Natasha Tillie, they translate health, business and hospitality know-how into Sen Wellness Sanctuary’s life-enhancing retreats.
