Floating Mountain Villa

Floating mountain has 5 well appointed rooms. It is about 20 kms away from Nuwara Eliya so it’s away from the hustle and bustle of a big city. It is was earlier a part of the Glenloch tea estate. Akila the manager is extremely helpful and is always present to make your stay comfortable. Gowri the owner was present when we were there and took us for a guided walk up the mountain. Neat clean cosy rooms. We were looking for a beautiful resort away from the hustle and bustle of the town and nestled in the mountains. The last one km will require a 4 wheel drive vehicle that is provided by the resort. All in all a lovely experience and we will come again.

Our stay was truly out of this world! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the stunning location—right in the heart of a lush tea estate, with breathtaking views in every direction. The serenity and beauty of the surroundings made it feel like a dream. The staff went above and beyond to make our experience exceptional—warm, welcoming, and always ready to help with a smile which especially important if you are traveling with small kids . The food was another highlight: delicious, authentic, and beautifully presented at every meal. Plus we enjoyed amazing and ad hoc dinner set up to celebrate birthday. Room was lovely - stylish & very comfortable. If you're looking for a peaceful retreat with top-notch service, mouthwatering cuisine, and a setting that feels like it’s straight out of a postcard, this is the place. We can't wait to return! Overall rating: 11 out of 10.

The Apartment is really nice. It is quite sizeable and is very clean. There are two caretakers that cover the whole block and are very helpful. The bedrooms were very comfortable and the lounge has a modern Wi-Fi connected TV. The apartment is a short taxi ride away from the town but the caretaker can order a tuk tuk for you.

What an incredible experience we had at Lavender house. The welcoming staff were attentive but unobtrusive & our private butler went above and beyond and always had a refreshing cold drink at hand. Thanks Viduna! The meticulous grounds surrounded by breathtaking views & all the local wildlife was wonderful. Loved the fresh flowers in our room. The passionate chefs surprised us daily with quality & great attention to detail. Loved our private cooking class! This place will hold a special place in our hearts.
