Our hotel
Our hotel obtained its name from its incomparable location right next to the Yoda Lake. In the Sinhala language “Thaulle” means “shore”. Each of the 28 rooms has a large glass front with a balcony and lets enjoy you the view over the lake and the beautiful scenery. Inside, our rooms flatter the eye with visual stimuli: they are individually furnished with handpicked antiques from Sri Lanka. The rooms are spread over two buildings, one of which is reserved for the accommodation of our Ayurveda guests. In both hotel buildings there is a choice of different room types types, which offer something for every taste. To provide a carefree stay for our guests who have difficulties with walking, most of the rooms are accessible by elevator.
Our guests receive all Ayurvedic treatments in our separate Ayurveda centre. Here you have the possibility to enjoy the healing effects of all treatments in a calm environment and to indulge in complete relaxation.
All treatments and examinations are done by our professionally trained therapists in an intimate atmosphere in our private treatment rooms. The use of our own pharmacy guarantees a reliable supply of medicines. Here you will find only certified Ayurvedic medicines. The Ayurvedic centre also has its own garden, overlooking the soothing Yoda Lake. If you want, come between individual treatments to rest and leave the weight of everyday life behind you. You can practice Yoga in our loft, which provides a beautiful view over the lake. By the way: You can also use the loft for retreats. You can even rent this space for retreats.

Our team
Our experienced team is available for your questions and wishes around the clock. When selecting our employees, we pay attention not just to professional qualifications but also especially to openness and friendliness. Sri Lanka rightly bears the title “Land of Smiles” – an image your visit to the Thaulle Resort will confirm. We would like to introduce some of our team members to you, so that you can already convince yourself of our competence before even leaving home.
Thilak Wettimuni is our hotel manager and visionary. He spent more than ten years in Germany and is fluent in German and English. Thilak visited many hotels in Europe to find out what perfect service consists of. He then returned to his homeland to build a unique hotel that combines the Western conception of comfort with the understanding of peace, serenity, humility and satisfaction that is so typical of Sri Lanka.
When he first set foot on the property that is now Thaulle Resort, it was love at first sight. He found confirmation in a Sinhala proverb that says: “To be happy, all you need is water, a village and a stupa.” Because all these things surrounded the property on which the hotel stands today. Finally, in 2011, construction of the hotel began, which lasted three years. Thilak attached great importance to loving details and followed the rules of the traditional Indian architectural theory Vastu. This is evident in every corner of our resort.

With Thaulle Resort, you are not just choosing accommodation. You are opting for a hotel that has the nature and people of Sri Lanka at heart. We’d like to make your stay unique and offer you the benefits of an Ayurvedic, eco and design hotel.
To protect the wonderful nature that surrounds us, we rely on renewable energy, operate our own solar and biogas plants and grow fruits, vegetables and herbs in our own gardens. But responsibility towards the environment also means responsibility towards the regional inhabitants. Therefore, we work hand-in-hand with the local people, employ people from the nearby villages, contract regional artisans and involve ourselves in the local community.
This close cooperation is reflected in our beautifully decorated rooms, which have a blend of traditional Sri Lankan craftsmanship and Western design elements. We are especially proud of the heart of our hotel: in our Ayurvedic centre, our spa guests can enjoy a holistic treatment that corresponds to the original Ayurvedic teachings.
