Eco Retreat Website Revamp for The Forestry

The Forestry is a small, intimate eco-retreat on seven acres of forest, rice fields and organic gardens beside the river in Belihuloya, Sri Lanka. It hosts up to 14 guests at a time. Mobiz built the retreat's first website in 2023 (see our earlier Forestry Camp case study). In 2026 we rebuilt it from the ground up on Mobiz CMS to match how the retreat has grown, with a stronger focus on wellness, food and direct bookings.

What we built

• Immersive hero. Aerial imagery of the property under the line "Come Back to What Matters", with Plan your stay and Discover Forestry calls to action.
• Check availability. A booking bar on the home page collects check-in and check-out dates, the number of guests and the guest's interest, and a fuller Plan your stay form sits on its own page.
• Stay. Dedicated pages for the treehouse and the eco chalets.
• Experiences. Ayurveda and wellness, yoga and retreats (with an instructors page), and excursions and treks.
• Food and Farm. The story of seasonal meals made from the retreat's own garden produce and local farmers.
• Guest stories. Tripadvisor reviews, with links to the retreat's listings on BookRetreats, Booking.com and Airbnb.
• Ask Forestry. A chat assistant for instant answers, plus a WhatsApp option for enquiries.

Design and approach

The calm, earthy design uses forest green, warm cream and an elegant serif to reflect the slow pace of the retreat. The site is fully responsive across desktop, tablet and phone, built on semantic markup for search, has a cookie consent banner for analytics, and runs behind Cloudflare.
