Sweet dreams.
Good recovery requires good rest. That’s why our boutique rooms are designed for unrivalled down time. Bright, spacious and contemporary, each air-conditioned crib features a private balcony and modern en-suite bathroom. There’s A/C to keep you cool, hot water to wash off the day and Wi-Fi for when the boss wants a word. Single or double, you’ll bookend your days with kips fit for a winner.
Get to work.
Your #holidaygoals start here. From team-based bootcamps to strength and mobility training, workouts are what we do best. We run a full schedule of daily classes, all of which are included in your stay. Whether you’re a fitness fresher or an interval whizz, our expert trainers will lead the way. Yes, there’ll be burpees. And yes, you’ll sweat buckets. But backed by our trademark Massive energy, you’re guaranteed to smash it.
Gym goals.
With an arsenal of bespoke Watson Gym Equipment, our world-class training room has all the kit you need to hit your holiday goals. Access is unlimited during your stay. Game for upgrading your gains? We offer a complimentary consultation as part of your package. We’ll work with you to set a fitness foundation and tailor the shape of your training. If you’d like more guidance, you can schedule further sessions with our expert trainers.
Food is fuel.
Good grub should boost you before, during and after a workout. Ready to refuel? We’ll serve you breakfast, lunch and dinner on every day of your stay. Head to our poolside restaurant and you’ll find a curated menu of nutritious dishes and nourishing drinks, each made to power your performance. And because meals are better with your mates, we meet regularly for a Massive rice and curry night.
Recovery mode.
Temps can get toasty in Sri Lanka. Luckily, we’ve got an ice bath for instant chill. Keen to soothe your sore spots with a trip to the deep freezer? You’re entitled to one free stint in the tub per stay, supervised by our trainers. And if your muscles are still in need of a kneading, you can also enjoy a 60-minute sports massage on us. Ideal if your bod’s taken a beating from bus rides or burpees.
Active rest.
Rest days are the best days for exploring Sri Lanka’s sunny south coast. Swim with turtles at our nearest beach, tour picturesque paddy fields on two wheels, or learn to surf at some of the island’s best breaks. Then kick back by the pool after a busy day in paradise. Time it right and you can tag in for a Makahiya social, too: from movie screenings to curry nights, our group activities are the gold standard in tropical entertainment.

What our guests say.
-
Makahiya Fitness is situated 10 minutes inland of Unawatuna, on the sunny south coast of Sri Lanka. Getting from the airport to Makahiya couldn’t be easier: the island’s main expressway runs all the way to nearby Galle. Airport transfers are included in our fitness packages – the journey takes an easy 2hrs 15mins by car.
-
Whether you book a Kickstart Package or choose to Build Your Own, you can select any start date to suit your travel plans. Every package includes unlimited access to our gym and all of our daily fitness classes, so you can build a flexible schedule whenever you arrive.
-
Absolutely! While we regularly welcome groups at Makahiya, most of our guests are travelling solo. All of our rooms can be booked for single or double occupancy, with packages priced accordingly. We always go big on group vibes – so whether you stay for a weekend or a fortnight, you’ll leave Makahiya with mates for life.
-
Fitness has no age limit and neither does Makahiya. From young guns to seasoned buffs, we welcome guests of every generation. Our community is built around big energy and big effort, regardless of your birthday rep count.
-
Our retreat is open all year round. The traditional season for the south coast runs from December to March, when the sun is hot, the surf is good and there’s very little rain. The off-season usually serves up sunshine between scattered showers. We train whatever the weather.
-
Corporate crew, gym squad or team mates: we’re very happy to host big groups at Makahiya. The retreat can comfortably sleep 18, with the option to transform our Super Suite into a four-bed dorm for the ultimate bonding experience. Get in touch for group packages.
