Journey Across Continents, One Cup at a Time

Step away from the ordinary and immerse yourself in the art of sophisticated leisure at Private Stay by MadlyGiving. Perched in the backyard of National Harbor, I invite you to an exclusive culinary voyage: The Around the World High Tea Experience.

Forget traditional tea service—this is a curated global expedition designed to awaken your senses. Gather around my lavishly styled, candlelit table adorned with vintage heirloom silverware, cut crystal, and fine porcelain for an afternoon of secluded luxury and world-class flavor.

Your Passport to Taste

Each course is an invitation to explore the tea rituals and signature delicacies of different corners of the globe:

  • The British Classic: Tender warm scones served with rich clotted cream, house-made fruit preserves, and traditional savory finger sandwiches paired with fragrant Earl Grey and Darjeeling.

  • The French Salon: Delicate Parisian macarons, golden fruit tartlets, and buttery madeleines complemented by delicate floral herbal infusions.

  • The Moroccan Oasis: Traditional sweet mint green tea poured with flair, accompanied by honey-drenched almond pastries and spiced treats.

  • The Far East Ceremony: Rare green and oolong varietals served alongside delicate, savory bites and matcha-infused confections crafted to restore harmony and balance.

An Intimate PRIVATE Escape

Set against the refined, tranquil backdrop of National Harbor, high tea is hosted in complete privacy. Whether you are celebrating a milestone, hosting an unforgettable gathering of friends, or simply seeking an afternoon of pure indulgence, every detail is orchestrated to make your stay effortless and extraordinary.

Reserve your seat at the table and let the world come to you at Private Stay by MadlyGiving.


High Tea

Designed as a robust meal rather than a dainty bridge between courses, it trades delicate cucumber sandwiches for satisfying, savory staples alongside a variety of fresh-brewed tea leaves the world over.
