Windloft Retreat

Welcome to Windloft. Imagine a tranquil valley with stunning panoramic mountain views clad in mist, overlooking the bustling market town of Deltota, with the mesmerizing effect of mountains marching in on you, a place 1,000 meters above sea level, on a mountain side with 3600 degrees of unobstructed view, set high up in the Great Valley right opposite to where the intrepid Scottish planter James Taylor founded the first tea plantation estate of the then colonial Ceylon (Sri Lanka) in 1867. Windloft is a great location to relax with the wind whispering across the valley to a tune of its own while being in close proximity to Kandy, the last Royal capital of Sri Lanka where a myriad of cultural activities of Sri Lanka are centered. The most important is the "Asela Perehara" held in July-August each year in reverence of the Sacred Tooth relic of Lord Buddha. One of the world's greatest festivals, it offers ten nights of dancers, drummers, elephants and clowns in traditional costumes parading along the streets of Kandy just a few feet away from the spectators in their seats. Deltota town today is a lively commercial centre by day. By night fall, the clean crisp highland air makes it a great vantage point to observe the jeweled necklace of the road snaking its way along the valley and the "Milky Way" up in the heavens visible as you have never seen before. deltota town is still a sleepy hamlet where one can retreat to and relax with the wind whispering across the valley to a tune of its own. The mountain ranges in every direction you look, by night fall, the clean crisp air of high altitude makes it a great vantage point to observe the jeweled necklace of the road snaking its way along the mountain and the deltota Hamlet along with the "Milkyway" upon the heavens visible like you have never seen before.
