A seaside sanctuary prioritising luxurious simplicity and gentle rest
Perched along the stunning shores of Tangalle, the sublime Uga Prāva embodies the essence of modern minimalist design while remaining deeply connected to the tropical beauty of its surroundings. With only seven elegantly appointed suites and an infinity pool that appears to flow into the Indian Ocean, this seaside sanctuary invites guests to unwind in a soothing environment that prioritises simplicity and rest.

At Uga Prāva guests are called to slow their pace, to pause amidst the palm trees and ocean breeze, and reconnect with their innermost selves, as the south coast provides the perfect backdrop for reflection and renewal.
