98英畝Spa飯店(98 Acres Resort & Spa)

Secluded hotel in Sri Lankan jungle, away from hustle and bustle of backpackers’ hell

Beautiful views

I had high expectations for 98 Acres but when they opened the door to the Chalet my wife was moved to tears by the beauty… The accommodation is spectacular, but the view…..like nothing ever, Little Adams Peak to the right and ahead a thousand miles of nothing but stunning mountains….. What made the stay was the service, Prahdeep and Dewon were incredible, charming and beyond attentive for any needs at all, including sorting Tuk Tuks and showing all the hidden best places! An experience we will never forget…. Thank you

A beautifully situated hotel making the most of the site. My wife and I spent a wonderful two days as part of our honeymoon and our only regret is that we couldn't stay longer. We will undoubtedly return here again sometime. I don't know if anywhere in the world it is possible to have a better breakfast in bed than at 98 Acres Resort. A wonderful complement to the whole is the top-notch service. Thank you for an unforgettable time and hope to see you again!

We've just returned from a stay here and while it is expensive it is a beautiful hotel in a perfect location for the attractions in Ella. We stayed half board and the dinner here was excellent too. We saw the construction work going on but it didn't detract from the views and the noise didn't start until we'd gone out for the day so it didn't bother us.

A beautiful resort hotel with absolutely stunning views over the valley. As a resort hotel, it has quite a lot of rooms and a largish restaurant. As such, the food, whilst good, is a little more mass produced and therefore not quite as good as some of the smaller more boutiquey hotels we stayed at. But it's only a short tuk tuk ride into Ella town which has a number of fun upmarket back packer style restaurants and bars and a cluster of quite nice touristy craft shops. The hotel does a great buffet breakfast which you can eat out on the terrace with spectacular views. The hotel is also right at the foot of Little Adam's Peak which is a good easy walk taking around 30 minutes to get to the top from which there are great views. One important tip : there is a spa area where we had possibly the best, and cheapest, massage ever which again is set out with wonderful views over the valley making it very chilled and relaxing

What an absolutely amazing place, pure heaven. I have traveled the world, and this is by far the best resort I’ve stayed in. I had the executive suite, and it was out of this world. I will most definitely visit again, and the staff were amazing. The location, the views, the suite, the attention to detail, the food, the atmosphere, the ambience, the proximity to the city, were to another level. I didn’t want to leave. Although I was a solo traveler, if you’re looking for somewhere to honeymoon, this is the place

Lovely accommodation. Food is absolutely amazing. Sadly our room was the closest to Ravana pool club and the construction of the 3 new buildings. They started work at 7am one day which was an early wake up call but it didn’t ruin our 2 night stay. I’d definitely pay extra next time for a room with a pool. The views from every room are amazing. We climbed little Adam’s peak which is so close to the resort. Room was great, view was epic, shower was lush. No complaints. The staff all work so hard. The breakfast hoppers were unbelievable. The lunch snacks were fab too. The pool guys were brilliant. We got caught in a thunder and lightning storm by the pool and they organised umbrellas and a golf buggy for us. We gave them 500 LKR as a thank you. We also had a cake in our room, I think this was because it was our honeymoon. Was a lovely touch. The only thing I’d say the hotel needs to do is change the entrance as at the moment tuk tuks and locals use it to go to Ravana pool club and little Adams peak. I think there should be 2 separate entrances.
