Uga Prava

Hugging Sri Lanka’s pristine southern shores, Uga Prava is a 5-star luxury boutique hotel that seamlessly integrates modern, minimalist design into its wild and evocative setting. With only seven rooms at the hotel, a stay of quietude and deepened intimacy is guaranteed, with the hotel’s serene gardens and private beach promoting moments of reconnection with the natural world. Charming at every turn, the hotel’s focal point is unquestionably its striking infinity-edge swimming pool, which appears to merge with the horizon from its cliff-edge position peering out over the lively Indian Ocean waters. Gastronomy too is a highlight at the hotel, with its superb restaurant inviting guests on a journey through Sri Lanka’s rich culinary heritage and also serving sumptuously fresh seafood dishes, while the onsite bar enables guests to soak up the tropical ambience while nursing a choice of thirst-quenching cocktails and other beverages. For utmost indulgence, consider a visit to the onsite spa, where a series of healing wellness treatments utilise local herb-driven remedies inspired by the bounties of the ocean. For leisure, a choice of activities includes private yoga and meditation sessions, traditional pottery-making with local artisans, surfing at nearby Unakuruwa, kayaking through the lotus-scattered lake as the sun sets or cycling through one of Sri Lanka’s oldest fishing villages.
