Anasa Wellness Resort, hotel in Ella

Situated in Ella, 49 km from Gregory Lake, Anasa Wellness Resort features accommodation with free bikes, free private parking, a fitness centre and a garden.

This is a really special place. The chalets are gorgeous, comfortable and chic with the most incredible views. As a family of four with two children age 10 and 7 it was really refreshing how welcome they were made to feel. Often gyms don’t allow kids in but our two were welcomed in and loved our family workouts and the gym is well equipped with really interesting equipment. Air hockey by the pool was another highlight, as was the sauna and plunge pool which they both got stuck into! And because there aren’t many residences it was never crowded. The staff were so friendly and again, amazing with the kids. Our server Ranil made sure we were looked after once highest standard, and made some great recommendations of things for us to do in and around Ella. He even packed little snack packs for the kids to take on our day trips.

Nine Skies, hotel in Ella

Nine Skies features free bikes, outdoor swimming pool, a garden and shared lounge in Ella.

From the moment we arrived we were treated by all the staff incredibly well. We loved everything about the property from the old colonial high ceilings to the beautiful gardens and infinity pool. The little walks around the property overlooking the tea plantation were stunning with little nooks for reading. So private and peaceful. Beautiful and super relaxing.

Zion View Ella Green Retreat, hotel in Ella

Located in Ella, 4.9 km from Demodara Nine Arch Bridge, Zion View Ella Green Retreat provides accommodation with an outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a garden and a shared lounge.

What didn't we like!! the location is stunning. the staff were so helpful and the politest guys I have ever met...they work so hard to make sure you have the best stay. The hammock on our balcony was my favourite place...spent hours there! Great showers. I took 3 excellent yoga classes with LeiLei (wish I could have done more). Food in the restaurant was excellent. 10min walk into town (down a steep hill) meant close enough for what we needed bur far enough away we couldn't hear the noise. Honestly we didn't want to leave. One of the best places we have ever stayed.
