Our Story

Perched on the slopes of the breathtaking Hantana mountain range, Theva Residency promises luxury, comfort and relaxation. Working in harmony with the spectacular nature and iconic “Kandyan” hospitality, we strive to give life to a quintessential retreat. We invite you to experience the stories of the mountains and beyond!

The term ‘Theva’ is derived from ‘Thewava’, which is a Sri Lankan ceremonial offering made with the utmost respect and attention to detail. In relation to this ceremonial offering, we provide the same level of attention to detail with regard to hospitality for all our guests, as one of the best hotels in Hanthana. Theva Residency, nestled near the scenic Hanthana Mountain, was once a family home and hence, retains the homely comfort sought by discerning guests.
