Hanthana Eco Lodge: A luxury nature retreat

-

Perched atop a hillside, Hanthana Eco Lodge is oriented towards a sprawling, scenic vista, cocooned by the Hanthana mountain range. With an elevation of over 2500 feet above sea level and just 8 km from the Kandy city, it is the perfect holiday getaway for all nature lovers, where everything about the Lodge is thoughtful­ly designed in harmony with nature, the company said in a media release.

Each villa is spacious and luxurious with the comforts of air conditioni­ng, hot water, a mini bar, TV, and a private balcony to relax and indulge in the ever changing climate and the surroundin­g landscape.

“From the moment of your arrival, you are welcomed and treated with utmost care, precision, and warmth that extends beyond a smile. The on-site hosts, led by the Hotel Manager and the versatile Chef with over 20 plus years of service in star class hotels, delivers unparallel­ed and exceptiona­l service at this secluded sanctuary,” the release said.

Hanthana Eco Lodge offers a blissful mountain retreat along with an array of unique activities. From exploring the Hanthana Mountain Range, visiting the Tea Museum which is closely located, taking a stroll in the lush forests, or driving to the hills in the 1972 Internatio­nal Scout, you are blended with nature and the majesty of the mountains to experience a true adventure. The revitalisa­tion of the property and the developmen­t of the Hanthana Eco Lodge was brought on by Mr. Harsha Samaranaya­ke, a marketing profession­al whose passion for exploratio­n, travel and nature encouraged him to venture into this idea.

“I have always been intrigued by nature and the diversity of our island, my relentless quest in travel to such unique destinatio­ns in all corners of Sri Lanka amplified with my dream of being close to nature and to share my experience­s with my family, friends and other nature and adventure lovers, both local and foreign,” he said.
