Heel mooi uitzicht op Ella Rock, vriendelijk personeel, lekker en uitgebreid ontbijt en menu

Pros:

Die Anlage liegt ruhig und etwa 15 Minuten mit einem Tuktuk entfernt vom quirligen Ella. Unser erstes Ferienhaus hat uns wirklich ausgesprochen gut gefallen, war sehr komfortabel mit atemberaubenden Blick. Das zweite Zimmer (Familienzimmer), in das wir aufgrund einer spontanen Verlängerung unseres Aufenthaltes wechseln mussten, hat nicht so gut gefallen wie ersteres.
Die Anlage insgesamt ist aber sehr ansprechend. Der Pool war toll mit schönem Blick (teilweise war das Wasser etwas schmutzig). Das Essen im Restaurant hat uns sehr gut geschmeckt, das Personal war stets freundlich und zuvorkommend. Wir würden wiederkommen.

A truly memorable experience with spectacular views and outstanding hospitality
Pros:

Chill Ville Ella offers absolutely breath-taking views and is easily one of the most scenic places to stay in Ella. The staff were incredibly warm, attentive, and went out of their way to help with everything we needed. They also arranged all our sightseeing and local transport seamlessly, making our stay completely hassle-free. Highly recommended!

Impresionantes vistas!
Pros:

Lo que más gustó fueron las vistas de la habitación. Amanecíamos con el valle frente a la cama, con los sonidos de los pájaros, todo muy idílico. El espacio dentro del bungalow era magnífico.

Aprovechamos la mañana para estar en la piscina y fue estupendo. Las vistas son espectáculares, el restaurante junto a la piscina tambien.

Cons:

El acceso al hotel era complicado con una pendiente muy elevada.

El desayuno era algo básico y con poca variedad

Authentic Sri Lankan boutique hotel with stunning views of Ella.
Pros:

Stunning, breathtaking views! Feels like you’re in the jungle, so peaceful and quiet! Very nice food at the restaurant. Very friendly and helpful staff. Comfortable beds. Hot shower.

Cons:

The breakfast has limited choice (no meat, no cereals for kids). The pool is not heated, so was a bit cold. Steep and uneven paths and lots of steps - not suitable for people with mobility issues or very young children (not pram suitable).
Rooms are quite dark, lighting could be improved.

Ich kann gar nicht in Worte fassen, wie gut mir die Unterkunft gefallen hat. Es war einfach perfekt. Es ist sehr ruhig gelegen, mitten in der Natur. Man hört Tiergeräusche. Die Aussicht ist atemberaubend. Das Zimmer ist schön gross und das Bad modern. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Ich kann es aufjedenfall weiter empfehlen!!

Cons:

Nichts. Es war perfekt.

Gorgeous spot with incredible views in Ella
Pros:

Outstanding views, pool and gardens. I enjoyed watching the birds and wildlife from the veranda. Breakfast was laid out as a buffet on my first day but served on my second which felt a bit nicer.

Cons:

A little out of town but a great place to relax. Safe didn’t work in room but felt safe enough.

Absolut empfehlenswert!
Pros:

Dieses Hotel befindet sich in einer absolut traumhaften Lage, der Blick aus dem Zimmer sowie dem Restaurant und Poolbereich ist wunderschön.
Die gesamte Anlage ist schön angelegt (es gibt ein paar Treppen zu den Zimmern, aber davon kann man bei einem Hotel auf dem Berg wohl ausgehen).

Das Personal war so nett und hilfsbereit, selbst spontane Ausflüge mit dem TukTuk waren kein Problem und vergleichsweise günstig.

Das Frühstücksbuffet bietet eine sehr gute Auswahl, zu dem gibt es frisch zubereitete Eierspeisen.

Die Zimmer/Anlage war sehr sauber, die Betten wirklich bequem und groß.

Mit dem TukTuk sind es ca. 10-15 Minuten in die Stadt - dafür wohnt man aber fernab vom Trubel und kann die Aussicht in Ruhe genießen.

Wir können das Hotel wirklich nur jedem empfehlen!

Cons:

die Poolliegen hätten bequemer sein können, aber das ist „Jammern“ auf ganz hohem Niveau 😊
