    Description

    Ayubowan! Tucked away just 2 km from Nuwara Eliya town, The Retreat is a cozy space for nature lovers, slow travelers, and soulful wanderers. Surrounded by mountain views and crisp highland air, our space is more than just a place to sleep — it’s a place to connect, reflect, and recharge.

    We offer a mix of dorms and private rooms, a shared bathroom, a tranquil garden, and a warm lounge space perfect for music, tea, and spontaneous conversation. There’s also a peaceful area for yoga, meditation, cacao ceremonies, or just cloud-watching with a cup of local tea.

    We’re still growing and dreaming — and we’d love to grow with you. If you’re creative, open-minded, and enjoy the simple joys of slow living, this might be your home in the hills. From misty morning walks to fireside chats at night, Theis is a feeling you carry with you.

    Come help us shape this retreat into something beautiful — and let it shape you too. 🌙✨
