It is first time for me and my mom in your country.
First my mom was hesitating of going to the country so far from Kazakastan.
But now we decided to come back to the place of paradise – Barberyn.
We would like to thank special thanks to all people who made our staying here amazing. There is no word to express our gratitude to the best treatment, best food and best people.
Thanks to all – doctors, receptionists, Yoga teachers, cooks – to everybody.
And see you in 2011!!!

P.S – we are going back home healthy!
Guests comments since re-opening on 1 August 2009
I stayed at Barberyn Reef Resort around a week. My friend who had stayed here strongly recommended to stay at this resort. She was right!! Staff is very friendly and helpful I felt always welcomed with their smile. Treatment was very professional and I was relaxed. Treated like a princess in the herbal bath with the lady pouring the warm water from my upper body, arm, legs n toes. Nowhere else I would get this treatments. Incredible hospitality!!
The food is excellent!! Was amazed only with vegetables various dishes have been created, and most importantly it was delicious! Healthy too. I am very much looking forward to cooking classes on Monday.
The room was kept clean always and was given hot water and mosquito mat everyday. First time in Sri Lanka, and will not be the last time. Thank you so much for your hospitality!!

Barberyn: whenever I say the word to anyone I get goose bumps, literally. The name alone transports me back to a time, not that long ago, where I made a journey of self-discovery, formed new friendships and had my eyes opened to an entire new world.
I went to Barberyn in March this year (2008) for a three week intensive course in Ayurveda. I had become extremely interested in Ayurveda since my first trips to India and wanted to learn more so I could eventually pass on this knowledge to others. My life path is to help people so for me Ayurveda and I naturally went hand in hand.
Why Barberyn? Well, after extensive research, and I mean really extensive research, Barberyn kept coming back up on all the internet searches I did and it definitely had the best clear and concise website by far. It appealed in the main because the price detailed everything that was included and reflected what I was looking for from this experience. I loved the photos on the website too - they kept drawing me in and I was very keen to experience Sri Lanka for the first time.
My very first impression of Barberyn was at the airport in Colombo when their lovely driver greeted me with a pillow, a bunch of bananas, a bottle of water and a huge grin. From that moment on I knew this was going to be an incredible adventure. It was also my first contact with the staff at Barberyn who made sure that nothing I asked for was too much trouble and everything that could be done to make my stay as happy and as fulfilling as possible was carried out. It is in fact each and every member staff who really, truly deserve to take the merit.
Although I was at Barberyn to enjoy two weeks of luxury treatments I was also there to learn. The course I did was three weeks long and covered the main points of Ayurveda. I loved every minute of the course, mainly because the lecturers were so wonderful, so giving and so patient and my fellow students turned out to be fantastic. The course was enticingly varied and every day was a new learning experience. I personally particularly enjoyed practising the full body massage, or abhyanga, and have since done many, many massages on people back home which they have all thoroughly enjoyed.
I think the highlights of the stay for me were definitely the one-to-one consultations and treatments, the general feeling of total well-being and of 'giving something back to your body and mind' and the utter serenity of Barberyn. I can't express enough how wonderful it was to just 'be' and not have constant noise and pressure around all the time. It is a perfect peaceful haven yet at the same time there are lots of fun things to do and to learn. For example my stay at Barberyn also opened my eyes up to the world of yoga and this again is something I practise at home now with great regularity.
I speak with passion when I say that there really isn't anywhere quite like Barberyn in the world. It is an absolutely unforgettable experience. I have told my friends, family and acquaintances about it and they all say 'wow, I would LOVE to go there'. It left such an imprint on me that I aim to go back in the very near future with my boyfriend to relish again in the treatments and hopefully further my Ayurvedic studies. I cannot wait to show him the people and the place and to once again have that unforgettable experience which is totally and utterly unique to Barberyn.

My beloved and good friend Mily,
With great affection always remembering my stay in your Ayurveda Center, that for me, is the best one than ever I have found in my many trips by Asia and of course the most amiable people and the most affectionate services with an individual care. It is a true delight, and I always have you all in the best of my memory. You are a fabulous person and a great professional;
I admire and I appreciate very much what you all are doing and offering to us.
Since I have traveled twenty times to Sri Lanka, a country that deeply I like and because of that, I have written two guides of tourism and several books, in addition I have many works published on the Teachings of Buddha and Meditation.
For me, Sri Lanka has everything and specially the formidable and unforgettable Barberyn Ayurveda Resorts is there, where I have passed some of the most tempting and calm days of my life, with your exquisite and purifying meals, it is a place of dream, the care of great specialists of ayurveda and magnificent treatments and massages that were given to us. For that reason, Dear Mily, since I returned to my country (Spain), I have tried to promote your center of Ayurveda, I have recommended it to my friends, students and people in general. I have spoken of Barberyn in several programs of radio and have written in three magazines specialized in the subjects of Spiritual, Ecology and Nature, Yoga and Meditation, as well as in news.
Three years ago, I was in Sri Lanka in the hotel Club Oceanic at Trincomalee, and there was the chief Director of Tourism filming, he asked me to speak of my impressions on Sri Lanka, so I did it for the television, saying how much I love this beautiful country, with innumerable works of arts and hospitality people.
For me it was a fortune to know Barberyn and your Ayurveda Center, as soon as I arrived I feel at home and soon I remained very renewed and full of health in that peacefully atmosphere.
Barberyn Beach Ayurveda Resort you can recommend to everybody and people of all ages. Also it was a great fortune to meet the owner
Mr Rodrigo - amiable and special person, also your husband and family.
All this was a memorable experience and I am looking forward to return to Barberyn Beach to greet the doctors the efficient and warm workers and more of all to go trough the authentic Ayurveda treatments.
Please receives my personal consideration, my affection and support in promoting your country and Barberyn Ayurveda Resorts,
Your Spanish friend,

In 1995 I found Barberyn Reef listed as a unique place with one of Germany’s top health tour operators, at a time when Ayurveda was little known in Germany. A Sri Lanka Travel Book referred to Barberyn Reef as a niche hotel, specialized in Ayurveda and vegetarian food with a beautiful set of beach bungalows along Beruwela beach.
I contacted Barberyn by phone in 1995 and found a professionally organized hotel, which helped me overcome any form of worry to travel to Asia for the first time in my life. What I found, when I got there was paradise on Earth and I have returned 14 times ever since.
Barberyn Ayurveda Resorts have been praised for their expertise in ayurveda, yoga and meditation. At the same, time I got to know the management of Barberyn. The Resorts are managed by the Rodrigo family, a family with an outstanding mixture of high ethic beliefs and a sound entrepreneurial spirit. Ensuring that Barberyn in its 40th year of existence is more than ever the market leader for holistic treatments combined with a dedicated hotel comfort makes it a unique place to return to.
To develop a second resort in the south of the island in Weligama in the 1990s, which was designed not as a copy of Beruwela but as a magic place of its own, underlines the creativity of the management and pays tribute to the growing number of the “Barberyn community”, clients coming from Europe as well as from Asia and Australia.
The values and high ethic standards of the Rodrigo family and management make Barberyn so special. I survived the Tsunami on Dec 26, 2005 at Barberyn Ayurveda Resorts Weligama. The Rodrigo Family and the staff of Barberyn Beruwela helped all guests to survive and at the same time took the initiative to establish instant survival help around Weligama, where the majority of people lost shelter. The creation of the Sudana Rodrigo Foundation in2006 ever since supports and coordinates the reconstruction of vital infrastructure projects for the people and industries in Sri Lanka.
Besides its uniqueness as a Resort, it is this spirit that makes Barberyn Ayurveda Resorts so special.

After a long journey and many travels to exotic and beautiful places I found something very special. Inside I felt like a piece of Flotsam and Jetsun worked up on the beach after the storm. This inner turmoil has been calmed and re joined because of the nurturing and nourishment to every part of my being. Even the parts that resisted and held on to the old habits. There is so much kindness, honesty and integrity in the very foundation of this place. All who work here are so generous and giving. So much to thank you all for, from a very grateful and rested traveler.
