The Lavender House by Reveal

AN INCREDIBLE STAY, we didn't want to leave! We stayed in the Plum room and we had the whole grounds to ourself so it pretty much felt like our home and we had free rein to use the house as we wished, we had just got engaged two days prior so this was BLISS!! The grounds are STUNNING! The view, the interiors, the staff, the diversity everything about it was 5*. Special shout out to Saman the hotel manager, Sampath the Chef, Viduna, Thisara, and Prassanna who made the stay EXTRA special, so attentive, kind and warming. The food was incredible and one of the highlights of our stay, was when Sampath and Saman would specifically ask us what we wanted to eat for each meal (not one menu seen during the whole stay which was impressive and added that personalized touch, bespoke feeling!) once we had discussed what we wanted they would organize a 3 course meal for every sitting, we wanted to experience true Sri Lankan cuisine so for the most part our meals were influenced by these flavors and it was incredible to experience such lovely dining. For lunch one day they even allowed us to have a floating lunch in the pool! I could not recommend this location enough. As a creative person I truly see this as a perfect place for a retreat, a place where you can relax, delve in to hobbies and create your own oasis! Its remote location lends it self to creation, contemplation and relaxation without the hustle and bustle. We were grateful to be able to wake up to the view, surrounded by the diversity and great staff! Id like to add that we felt the pictures didn't do the property/grounds justice, also pictures of the villa, which is equally breathtaking just modern is outstanding (we were lucky enough to be able to see the villa and what it had to offer and it was very impressive) just a shame that there isn't any photos of it! (we were shocked to hear that there weren't other guests & that people had cancelled - we could only assume that it was because its an hour away from central Kandy?!?!) Since we had just got engaged we could see its potential in being a wonderful wedding location! We will be visiting again and next time for even longer!

Best place to stay in Sri Lanka! The manager Saman and all his staff - especially Viduna & Thisara was amazing. The head chef Shanta and his team made the most delicious food for us the whole stay. 10/10 ❤️ We had a really relaxing time and the view is out of this world!

Fantastic location overlooking a tea estate with breathtaking views, and a picturesque infinity pool. The rooms are luxurious and the property itself has a variety of spacious areas to relax and decompress under double-storey ceilings. Delicious food and service is provided with the accomodation, and the staff are extremely hospitable and friendly, making the service all the more unique. The people and service are highlights, making the overall experience all the more special. The food and tea are prepared diligently by the in-house chefs, with optionality for different diets and preferences. Overall, an outstanding boutique experience, and one that I would highly recommend to anyone seeking a serene relaxing holiday in the hills of Sri Lanka.

That was a beautiful day in a summer villa, magnificent location, friendly staff. They made our little trip excellent, special thanks for Saman! He met us and provided everything that made our stay comfortable, he was really caring. Strong recommend to visit the Lavender house

Fabulous retreat in the midst of a tea plantation. Very peaceful with gorgeous views. The rooms are large and welcoming. The Sri Lankan breakfast was particularly good. The staff is delightful and Saman was an outstanding host. Loved the trip to the tea factory.

We had a wonderful stay for Christmas at Lavendar House. The property is beautiful with an incredible view from the pool - and the staff were amazingly attentive. They even arranged for “Santa” to come by on the 24th December when they realised we were leaving too early on 25th to meet him. They were also hugely flexible allowing us to enjoy high tea on an incredible terrace and a hot stone cooking dinner in a beautiful old English dining room. Saman, Thisara and chef Shantha were wonderful. Thank you!!
