“The most incredible location, views, accommodation and staff”
The location was amazing and although it takes a little time to get there it’s worth it. To be in the hills of the tea plantations and wake up to a sunrise and beautiful bird calls was exceptional. an unforgettable experience

“Absolute must if visiting Sri Lanka”
The most unique experience we had in Sri Lanka. The tent-like rooms were amazing, it was like camping but with all the comfort and needs covered. The view from the tent´s terrace was breathtaking. Absolute peace and tranquility. The infinity pool was very enjoyable and the main lounge-restaurant area was very cozy. The food was absolutely delicious, almost everything was organic, even bread and pastries were freshly baked every morning. Staying amongst tea fields was so beautiful and unique as well. The staff is lovely, incredibly caring and accommodating. The owner of the hotel is usually there and bothers to have a conversation to make sure you are enjoying your stay. You can arrange different types of activities and tours with them. Staying here was one of the best parts of our trip to Sri Lanka. A total must!

“A piece of Heaven!”
Madulkelle Tea and Eco lodge is set on in the mountains north of Kandy, with breath-taking views and a setting that has to be seen to be believed. The accommodation is in tents but these are serious tents, "Out of Africa" style where the shower and toilet within the tent have proper walls. This is not like camping! Both Breakfast and Dinner are fantastic, the restaurant area enjoys these spectacular views and the staff are very attentive without being intrusive or rushed. All the staff were great, paying attention to every detail, from Vinod who helped us with our onward travel plans to young Jayamith who was determined to make everything perfect for us. Thank you all! FYI the accommodation has UK style power sockets in the tents.

“Beautiful and peaceful stay among the tea hills 🍃”
Beautiful estate with pristine views of the tea hills and Knuckles mountain range. I loved how peaceful it was, the beautiful views at breakfast and that there was a pool. I stayed in a private family tent. It was clean and spacious, and had all the amenities I need.

“Fun, different and quirky. Loved the safari tents.”
what an amazing place Madukelle is. Stunning location in the hills, fantastic views over the Tea plantation and we had a guided walk around the Tea factory. Wonderful massages in the huts over a babbling stream listening to the frogs at dusk. make sure you ask for the steam experience after any treatments - super!!! Pool table whilst drinking cocktails was a lovely touch. Great staff and we met the owner who is a fascinating guy with plenty of stories to share!
