Sri Lanka (Kalpitiya)
Fitness Bootcamp

You will need to fly into Colombo International Airport in Sri Lanka.

You can choose to add on a water pack to your booking. We are committed to keeping our impact on the environment low so we have introduced a high quality mineralised, UV treated filtered water station, allowing you to refill your reusable bottles without the need for excessive plastic consumption. Our water is tested regularly to ensure it remains high quality.

Price €10 per stay. 

Drinks are also available for purchase in the resort in local currency: Tea, coffee, juices, virgin cocktails and fruit-infused water and protein shakes (vegan and non vegan) subject to availability.

The shared transfer takes approximately 3 hours, on Sunday at 3pm. Please consider this when booking return flights. 

During travel days, not all meals are included. During your stay you will be provided with breakfast, lunch and dinner, except on the day of your arrival (only dinner), and the day of departure, (only breakfast).  

Transfer costs. You can join our set shared transfer on Sunday at 3pm. This costs €25 pp or you can make your own way in a taxi, which is approximately €90.

Please bring suitable training gear such as trainers, a couple of pairs of shorts, sports bras and training tops. We advise bringing a towel as well to take to the gym and a beach towel. We will provide you with 2 towels per week for showering.

The resort is fairly remote so please bring all essentials with you, there is a limited selection of goods that can be purchased locally. 

Please also bring a refillable water bottle as we do not like disposable plastic water bottles in the resort. 

Lastly please take everything back with you, including empty plastic shampoo bottles. It's important that we protect and preserve this beautiful space for others to enjoy.

This depends on your own spending choices,  you only need to cover your external excursions and activities. Excursions like dolphin and whale watching can be paid on card.

You can bring supplements with you, but please make sure these are clearly labelled.

People join our Fitness Holiday Bootcamps with lots of different goals. Some people want to bulk up, some lose weight and other to improve fitness. Individual fitness goals require different calorific and protein intakes on a daily basis. The meal plan included is not an all-you-can-eat.  This means you may need to supplement your protein intake while you train if you feel the desired calorific or protein content is not enough. 

Yes and credit cards are widely accepted too.

Plenty. Anything from whale watching (in season), kitesurfing (in season), beaches or relaxing in a hammock under the palm trees with a good book!

There is a range of tours you can do like visiting national reserves, and activities including kite safaris, stand-up paddling, snorkelling and diving.

Yes! 90% of our clients join the boot camp on their own. In fact far from being a problem, we would encourage people to do so. It's a very social environment at the camp and you will make friends very quickly.

Yes. Beach towels, training towels and toiletries are not included so please bring sufficient supplies to cover the entire duration of your stay.

Due to the nature of us being a Fitness camp, alcohol and smoking are not permitted in the resort. By all means, have a few drinks after a hard day's training but please do not bring alcohol into the camp. There are a couple of different options for bars and resorts locally. Smokers please also do so outside of the resort grounds and remember to take care of your cigarette butts. 

Probably 60% female, 40% male. Everyone will have different goals and motivations for booking the camp too. With girls, it's usually about toning up, weight loss and body confidence. Boys tend to focus more on strength and conditioning training. Not exclusively, there are people who join for all reasons. The important thing to consider is everyone is catered for, and people's goals might change throughout your stay.

Yes. If you have any dietary requirements do let us know at time of booking.

Rainfall is at it's highest between June and September, although August is often an exception with much lower rainfall. People join us all year round in our Sri Lanka, Bali and Thailand boot camps, no matter the season. 

• On average, the warmest month is March
• The coolest and driest month on average is January
• May and October are the wettest months. This means more rain, but cooler to train in

Due to the nature of the Sri Lanka Bootcamp, we often get asked "What kind of results will I see?" This is an impossible question to answer because everyone is different. People have different metabolisms, different work rates and how long you stay for. We are confident you will definitely see an improvement, even if you come for a short time, you will be set on the right path and given a good foundation to continue training back home. You will learn all the tools and techniques you need in order to continue to improve. 

No you don't, no one will make you get out of bed to come training. But you will find it's very addictive and most clients have no issues making it to class.

On average people train between 2 - 3 hours per day. You have a good mix of group training sessions.

Yes you can book additional personal training sessions locally.

Limited Wi-Fi is available in the accommodation, and it's free but there are bandwidth restrictions limiting streaming and large file downloads and videos. We recommend downloading movies before arrival.

If you plan on streaming or need access to unlimited amounts of data the easy solution is to purchase a sim card from Dialog in the arrivals hall at the airport in Sri lanka.  The cost is about 8 usd per 10gb.

Where to get your SIM?

At the airport

Ultimate Fitness has a no refund policy. So please be aware requests for refunds will not be considered. We strongly advise the uptake of travel insurance with cancellation cover after booking. 

There are set start days. Year-round the start and end days are on a Sunday.

If you are fully vaccinated, (you have had the full vaccine course 14+ days prior to travel), and have a negative PCR test 72 hours before your flight, you will not need to quarantine. 

If you are not fully vaccinated, you will need to quarantine for 2 weeks prior to joining us. Plus do a test on arrival, and again before exiting the level 1 safe and secure hotel. 

If you have been traveling in Sri Lanka prior to joining you will need to show a negative lateral flow or PCR test taken no later than 72 hours before arrival. This is a condition of joining the camp.

Unfortunately PCR testing isn't available locally. The best option is to have a test at Western hospital in Colombo. The cost is approximately €30 and the results are delivered 6 - 8 hours after testing. We recommend having this organised one day before catching your international flight home. 

They can be contacted on ON 011 2685413 or 7392260 or WhatsApp 0777616262

There is no pool in the resort however you are able to access a large gorgeous pool next door (100 metres) when you buy a drink.

Sri lanka has a system similar to the UK. Power outages do happen frequently (although we do have a generator) we advise bringing a battery bank charger as well.

If you are joining us for more than 4 weeks you will need to extend your visa at the immigration office in Colombo, alternatively, you can do this online.

If doing this in person, we strongly recommend doing this before joining the camp on the Friday before the start. Otherwise, you will need to head down to Colombo after 4 weeks (costing 160 eur in transfers).

Our taxi firm can assist you with making arrangements.
