Positive: Staff is so nice. Suren, and Mr. Jayantha were our people. Food and the chef at this property are amazing. Food is made with so much love it really shows. Super green, smack in the middle of the nature. Very boutiquey and personalised service.
Negative: The villa we stayed in requires some work. We had an incident that was dealt with swiftly. But things like lock doesn't work or the shattaf in the bathroom doesn't work properly. Not big problems but can be worked on. More trash cans in the room can be helpful, too. We had power outtage both nights that we stayed. One night was longer. It's not an issue as Ella js quite cool, but the mosquitoes cause issues with lack of fan when power is out.

Positive: Arawe retreat is a true gem in Ella. Relaxing location in the middle of the rice paddies, with a great hotel manger and staff, complimented by the hotel superstars Latta, Banda, and Mandika - respectively the hotel cat and dogs. Breakfast was great and service like no other in Sri Lanka.
Negative: Some of the facilities (like the spa and yoga shala) were not available yet as under construction.
Summary: Nature paradise in Ella

Positive: It doesn't get better. Your own chef personally making you whatever you want for breakfast. Zen setting, super friendly staff. The property has been in the same family hands for well over a hundred years. Back to nature experience in a rice paddy and forest setting a very short distance to the hustle and bustle of Ella. Property owner is a great guy who has a vision on improving the lives of those less fortunate and has undertaking a number of community based projects which are game changing for those inviolved. That spirit of genoristy and kindness seems to reside in the soul of this place. A very special experience that will stay with you for some time.
Negative: Nothing. Special place and beautifal stay experience
Summary: Immersion in charm and calm

Positive: The property was beautiful, tucked away but not far from everything you need in Ella. The owner and the staff were amazing and went above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect, and finally the food was just incredible in a stunning setting. Could not recommend this place highly enough.
Negative: The only downside is no proper AC in the rooms! But we did visit during some of the hottest weather, so in normal times this may not be an issue.
Summary: A beautiful stay in a beautiful place.
