Take a tour around the Estate
When we came across Tekanda it was an abandoned tea, coconut and cinnamon estate with nothing but a derelict shed and an old bell. Over the last few years, our estate team has worked tirelessly to breathe life back into the land.
We have planted a large number of new tea trees and scores of young indigenous rainforest trees to further develop the biodiversity of the land. For the coming years, planning is underway to plant pineapple, lemon, pepper and avocado.
We are blessed with remarkable wildlife, flora and fauna including a resident family of the endangered Purple-faced Langur Monkey, Mongoose, Asian Palm Civets and Wild Boar. Tekanda is also bird watchers’ dream and White-bellied Sea Eagle, Brahminy Kite, Blue-tailed Bee-eater, Jerdon's Baza, Kingfisher and the Asian Paradise Flycatcher are regular visitors.
We enjoy taking guests on guided walks around the Tekanda Estate to share its natural beauty.
