We stayed at Tea Heritage for our honeymoon, and it truly felt magical. The setting is incredibly picturesque, surrounded by lush greenery and peaceful views. Usually, hotels in Sri Lanka feel a bit outdated, but this property is brand new with a...

Een fantastisch verblijf en ervaring! Het team van Dinushika en Palitha heeft ons geweldig verzorgd, van bijzondere koffie, tot super diner, alle hulp en het huis is een verborgen parel. Een absolute aanrader.

まず、オーナーの皆さんの温かいおもてなしに感動しました。日本人として初めて宿泊したとのことでしたが、本当に親切で細やかな気配りをしていただき、最初から最後まで安心して過ごすことができました。 食事はどれもとても美味しく、ガーデンで採れたオーガニック食材を活かした料理を家族みんなで楽しみました。 そして何より印象に残ったのは、オーナーさんが一緒に広いガーデンを案内してくださったことです。たくさんの植物や昆虫、小さな生き物について丁寧に教えていただき、子どもたちは自然と触れ合う貴重な体験が...

De villa is eigenlijk een omgebouwde oude thee fabriek, en ligt dus midden in de plantage. De gastheer en kokkin wachtten ons bij aankomst op, waarna we hartelijk werden ontvangen. Het was even zoeken naar de juiste kamer indeling (we reizen met...

Wir hatten eine sehr schöne Zeit im Tea Heritage. Die Villa liegt mitten in der Natur und ist von außen nicht einsehbar, so dass man sowohl Villa als auch den Außenbereich ungestört nutzen kann. Wir wurden wunderbar bekocht und Palitha hat sich um...

Wunderschönes, sauberes, großes Haus, überragender Service, es wurde sich um alles gekümmert - von Tee spät abends, bis zu schönen Sonnenuntergangs-Aussichtspunkten, Essen war sehr viel, sehr gut und traumhaft angerichtet.

Nigdy wcześniej nie byłem w tak cudownym miejscu, a od wielu lat podróżuję po Azji Południowej. Gospodarz i cała obsługa są niezwykle komunikatywni, życzliwi i pomocni. W nocy nie mogłem zasnąć, bo za oknem rozciągał się przepiękny widok na las i...

Welcome to Tea Heritage, Two bedroom Glass Pavilion , where luxury meets nature in perfect harmony. Nestled in a tranquil tea estate just outside Kandy, our one-of-a-kind retreat hosts only one couple or one family at a time — giving you the entire property, complete privacy, and uninterrupted serenity. Designed with floor-to-ceiling glass walls, our spacious pavilion-style suites are surrounded by lush greenery and breathtaking mountain views. Take a dip in your massive private swimming pool, soak in the silence, or enjoy a fresh home-cooked Sri Lankan meal made with love and local ingredients. Here, the experience goes beyond a stay. Wander through our private tea plantation, join a guided tour to learn how tea is grown and harvested, and even enjoy a tasting session in the garden. For those seeking deeper relaxation, Ayurvedic treatments and village experiences are available on request. ✨ Whether it’s a romantic getaway, a peaceful family retreat, or a soul-recharging escape — Tea Heritage is your exclusive glass pavilion in the hills.
Thilina – Founder of Tea Heritage and Tea Heights With over a decade of hosting experience, I bring together my passions for nature, wellness, and creativity to offer guests a truly personal retreat. I'm a former army officer, now living a peaceful life as a naturalist, artist, songwriter, and yoga practitioner. Designing and building Tea Heritage as a private escape in the hills has been a labor of love – a blend of modern comfort, local culture, and raw natural beauty. Whether it's sharing stories over tea, guiding you through the plantation, or helping you unplug from the busy world, I’m here to make your stay meaningful and memorable. 👩‍🍳 Dinushika – Your Private Chef & Co-host Dinushika is a warm, talented young lady with a deep love for Sri Lankan cuisine. Her cooking skills are praised by all who visit — from traditional village-style curries to comforting homemade chutneys and desserts. She prepares each meal with care, using fresh local ingredients, and is always happy to accommodate your preferences. Together, we welcome you to Tea Heritage — not just as guests, but as friends sharing in the beauty and peace of our mountain home. Our Neighbourhood – Life in the Kandy Forest Gardens
Our Neighbourhood – Life in the Kandy Forest Gardens Tea Heritage is nestled within a peaceful and rare ecosystem known as the Kandy Forest Gardens — a lush, mountainous area where nature, tradition, and sustainability live in perfect harmony. Our neighbours are mostly tea and spice planters, tending to age-old estates passed down through generations. You’ll also find a few local government officers who have chosen the calm and quiet of the hills over city life. We are proud to be part of a community that respects nature. Just a short walk away, one of our neighbours, a former IT professional, now lives his dream as an organic farmer, offering unique farm stays and hands-on experiences. His story reflects the soul of this region — a return to the roots, where life is slower, more meaningful, and deeply connected to the land. Surrounded by forests, gardens, and mountain mist, our neighbourhood is not just scenic — it’s soulful. The silence is golden, broken only by birdsong, temple drums in the distance, or the laughter of farmers returning home.
