“This place is incredible! We were a little worried when our driver initially dropped us off with our bags at the bottom of the steep road and said the road was too tight for the minivan to get through. We walked a little further than we should have, but we found the hotel and as we were escorted to our room our mouths dropped. The room is incredible! We were 3 people, but this place was clearly meant for 6. Two king beds on either side of a little staircase that took you up to 2 single beds……
“My stay was incredible! The balcony view was mesmerizing, and I could've gazed at it for hours. Everything was flawless, and the owner's delicious breakfasts made it even better. They ensured we felt right at home.”
“We had the BEST time at Ella Retreat! Sadly on 34 hours long but this hotel is seriously beautiful, better than the pictures.
You need a head for heights on the (slightly hairy) tuk tuk ride up the mountain, but once you're there this is a haven that you simply cannot afford to miss on your trip to Sri Lanka.
The location is mind-blowing, the rooms extremely nicely done and the food delicious.
Amazing quality service, we were in WhatsApp communication for ages before arriving and they were……
“A really lovely accommodation with the most incredible views. The room was clean and spacious with a balcony so you wake up to a view of the mountails The host Priyanatha is so warm, welcoming and always available to help. Breakfast was lovely (especially the hoppers). A short walk (or tuk tuk) into town. Loved my stay here! Thank you!”
“Très bel hôtel sur les hauteurs de la ville, personnel serviable. Magnifique vue sur les montagnes. Chambre avec belle terrasse
Un peu éloigné de la ville, il faut prendre un tuktuk, cependant l'hôtel nous a proposé leur service.
Et la ville est très animée et très sympa.

“Les hôtes ont été hyper accueillants et pleins de bons conseils, toujours prêts à rendre service (laundry, location scooter, conseils visites, accès restaurant, réservation tuk tuk...), la chambre avait une très jolie vue, c'était calme ... Nous avons passé un très bon séjour ! ”
“An amazing experience, sleeping in the canopy of the forest. We saw lots of animals and fireflies at night. Accommodation is basic as you would expect but beds and bathroom were clean. Ella is a 5-10 minute walk away via the railway tracks. Route was easy to find as directed by our host. Breakfast was delicious and filling.”
“What a dream this place is. Fantastic stay that felt like we were welcomed into a home of warm friends. Food was perfect, stay was perfect, view and massages perfect as well. perfect place for some rest and rejuvenation. Take a great book and fall asleep in the comfortable double bed lounger in the flower garden.”
“We loved the beauty of this place. Everyone was friendly and beyond helpful. I took photos from my balcony of a family of deer. it was incredible. Staff also helped us book a once in a lifetime safari. I definitely recommend this stay. ”
