Welcome to a slower way of being
Leave the rush behind.
What if the most unforgettable part of your journey was finally having time for yourself?
A little further away. A world apart.
Nothing to chase.
Nowhere else to be.
Tucked into the green hills of Gampola in Sri Lanka’s Hill Country, Mount Havana is a family owned rainforest Estate with more than 150 years of history and 25 acres of tea, mixed crops and riverine forest. Our nature and wellness retreats offer a peaceful way to experience the island beyond the usual tourist trail.
Begin with yoga and meditation, wander the Estate trails or spend an afternoon beside the pool. Depending on your retreat programme, enjoy hiking, forest therapy, bird watching and mindful activities. There is room to explore, and room to do absolutely nothing.
Sometimes the most meaningful journey is the one that brings you back to yourself.
