We really loved the stay and all the detailing of the room.. host had been amazing and shared all the information well in advance… It was so relaxing and thrilling experience to spare time with nature - experiencing water fall, birds chirping, rains, swinging breeze and many more things…!!

We really appreciate our star at this place. It is a unique place with a service with care and attention. We were able to relax in the nature. We took the cooking classes and it was a wonderful experience. Great food. Near the Waterfall. Peaceful and quiet environnement. Perfect for nature lover indeed !

We had an amazing time, even learnt how to cook too! Taniya was excellent in teaching us. Thank you for looking after us x

Beautiful location. Really fun room. The people who work there are wonderful, particularly Sri who is most solicitious

It’s a thrilling expression in the middle of the forest. A true reflection of the pictures, the villa was spacious, comfortable, and beautiful. Even though it’s in the middle of the forest, there were no mosquitos inside. The place was spotless. Sri, who looked after us, was very courteous and polite. Breakfast and dinner was also very delicious. A tuk tuk is needed to go to the main road, and it was arranged for us almost immediately whenever we needed it. Go for it!

Great room, clean and spacious, had a great sleep ! Staff was friendly and service impeccable.

The staff were really annoying. On the first day, they kept coming to my room for every little detail, and I didn’t have any privacy. The next day, my breakfast was 40 minutes late. The bed was also not clean and had a strong, unpleasant smell from the anti-mosquito spray. The food was very basic as well. It was advertised as a “yoga and meditation retreat,” but when I asked about joining a yoga class, they said they would get back to me. I never received any confirmation. Considering the price and the quality of the experience, I would definitely not recommend this place.

Personnel très serviable et arrangeant. Chambre et sdb propre. Je tiens juste à préciser que la sdb est en dehors de la chambre. Ils ont vraiment répondu à toutes nos questions et nous on aidé pour louer un scooter ou encore recommandé des restaurants. A seulement 10min de la ville d’Ella, je recommande pour être dépayser tout en étant pas loin de la ville

Charming, beautiful view, helpful staff.

Amazing staff

Glamping tent is wonderful. Food prepared by Taniya was excellent. You have a waterfall very close

Excellent stay at Ella Retreat! loved being so deep in nature and having the sound of the nearby waterfall. The staff were lovely and very helpful. Great spot for nature lovers.

What a place! Absolutely loved our time here.

Personal del lugar sin hablar ingles. Generente nos pide pagar de nuevo la habitacion cuando ya esta pagada. Nos dan una hanitacion que no es la reservada. La haniracion tiene goteras.

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 super helpful. The team couldn't do enough for us, and slwere so friendly during our stay too Taking some fabulous memories of Ella Retreat home with us ♥️

Amazing stay with fantastic staff. A real back to nature experience in the hills. We stayed in a lovely lodge with fantastic scenery next to a waterfall and great food.

Gimhani, Niluka, Priyangika, and Kushan are exceptional staff members who made our experience truly memorable. Their warmth, professionalism, and attention to detail stood out. The overall experience with the place was absolutely amazing, and we would highly recommend it to anyone looking for outstanding service.

Really enjoyed our stay at Ella Retreat. The glamping tent was ideal for us, spacious and comfortable, and the balcony overlooking the waterfall was amazing! The staff are extremely friendly and helpful, organising our (very tasty) meals, tuktuks and laundry.

We had a winderful stay here. The staff aren incredible. The location is great to visit Ella (however if you have limited mobility i wouldnt recommend). The breakfast is wonderful.

Wir hatten einen wunderbaren Aufenthalt von drei Nächten im Ella Resort! Das Frühstück und das Abendessen war unglaublich lecker, und bei gutem Wetter wurde es uns sogar direkt zur Villa/zum Zelt gebracht. Die Gastgeber waren super freundlich, immer ansprechbar und haben sich herzlich um alles gekümmert. Die Lage mitten in der Natur ist traumhaft, aber man sollte sich bewusst sein, dass sich hier und da mal ein kleines Tierchen vor oder im Zelt/Villa (Affen, Insekten) zeigen kann. Insgesamt war es eine einzigartige Erfahrung, die wir weiterempfehlen können!
