Directions

By Air & Private Transfer: The most convenient option. Yasmin Hill is a 3–3.5 hour drive from Colombo International Airport.

Concierge Tip: Send us your flight number, and our driver will await your arrival for a seamless door-to-door transfer.
By Train: An adventurous alternative. Take the scenic train from Colombo to the historic city of Kandy (2.5–3 hours). From there, it is a short 30-minute ride by taxi or tuk-tuk to the resort.

Location & Arrival: We are hidden in the hills of Thalathuoya (search “Yasmin Hill Longevity Oasis” in your GPS). As you ascend the winding mountain roads, prepare for stunning vistas. A warm welcome and full luggage assistance await you at the top.
