You know a place is truly special when you're already planning when you can come back the second you leave! My friend and I were looking for a laidback, family-style surf retreat and Lotus fit that description perfectly. But, wow, how it exceeded all our expectations! From the minute you walk through the door, Liam, Helen & the whole team of local staff make you feel so welcome & so taken care of - it's like visiting longtime friends & family.
The progression my friend & I have made in just 5 days of surf classes is almost unbelievable. Liam, Jay & the whole team of surf guides are experts in coaching you, helping you understand your own surfing better and especially in cheering you on whenever you catch a wave! I have never felt so at ease and so confident in the water. A million thank you's won't ever be enough to thank everyone at Lotus for this magical time! I cannot wait to come back!

I spent an amazing week at Lotus with my best friend on our surf trip to Sri Lanka. We were looking for a a surf retreat that offers great quality across the board, and found in Lotus exactly that. Liam is a super passionate surf coach, and him and his team made sure to put us on the best waves for our specific level. During the video analysis we got great individual tips & insight, plus all footage of our waves! The food was healthy and tasty, the rooms spacious and clean, and the vibe very laid back. Lotus’s team of local staff added authenticity to our experience. We hope to return to this ‘home away from home’ soon!
