Surf Retreat Boutique Camp Poe
“Just opposite of Ahangama beach in Sri Lanka I step into a quiet, green garden, filled with tropical flowers, beautiful jungle plants, swaying palms and a large pool. I immediately feel at home at Surf Retreat Boutique Camp Poe.”
The beautiful property is owned by two friends Ben & Till. Camp Poe has a relaxed bohemian vibe; the common open living room is boho chique decorated and has two huge lounge sofa’s, a pool table and a large dinner table. Every morning and evening the sweet Sri Lankan neighbour family prepares a fresh, healthy breakfast and dinner for everyone.
You can book a comfortable jungle tent or a more luxury bungalow. During my stay they were still building the tree houses to sleep in, but it must be finished about now! There are yoga lessons every day in the camp and on Saturdays on the beach. Surf lessons can be booked in the morning and afternoon. Pick up your rhythm with the music teacher or get a new beautiful piece of ink from the in-house tattoo artist.
Camp Poe finds sustainability very important. Ben and Till work together with the local Sri Lankan community in Ahangama, they grow their own fruit and veggies, sell hip vintage clothes and give you the opportunity to learn and build ever lasting friendships!
