Poolside
Restaurant
EL GROTTO ~ BAR & KITCHEN
The central meeting point to start your day or nightly adventures; the perfect place to meet fellow yogis from all over the world. Here you can enjoy a swim in our mirror pool with light background music, read a book while catching some sun in one of our sun loungers, or just relax in a poolside bean bag with a nice glass of chilled goodness.
​
EL GROTTO is an honest culinary retreat where you’ll find no clichés — only authentic and delicious food, ice-cold beers, refreshing cocktails, and a simple but modern Boho setting where banter and good vibes flow freely.
​
Pull up a seat. Kick back. This is where we unwind and indulge. It’s that stepping-off-the-plane-in-a-foreign-country vibe, it’s the weight of a cocktail in hand, it’s that Sri Lankan sea breeze.
We are adamant about keeping our food offering small and delicious — no dishes acting as purely menu fillers here. Enjoy a straightforward choice of flavorful dishes such as homemade popcorn falafel, homemade croquettes, beetroot curry, fish tacos, crispy vegetarian pakora burgers, vegetarian burrito Buddha bowls, falafel bowls, crunchy nachos and an all-day brunch menu, that the team is excited for you to share amongst friends.
​
In the space, there’s a covered dining area for friends & couples, and a poolside sun loungers and beanbags area for those who want to chat while they sip cocktails, enjoy delicious bites, and take in the tropical vibes.
