“An absolutely wonderful 19-night stay”
+I absolutely loved my stay at The Planter’s Bungalow and hated to leave! The Lower Apartment was clean and comfortable, the staff were consistently friendly and accommodating, and the food was delicious. What made this place so special for me was the view. The full-length wall of sliding glass windows meant I could lie in bed and look straight out at the beautiful landscape, or step onto the balcony with my morning coffee and watch the sunrise. The sky was constantly changing, from brilliant sunshine to dramatic, stormy clouds, all over a serene landscape. It was exactly the setting I had hoped to find for a longer stay near Ella. Breakfast was included and always varied. With a choice of tea or French press coffee with milk, I particularly enjoyed being able to alternate between the two. Fresh drinking water was always readily available. The grounds were immaculate, and the swimming pool area looked very inviting. A couple of practical tips for longer stays: the kitchenette provides tea but no instant coffee, so bring your own if you prefer it. If you like milk in your coffee or tea, consider bringing some boxed milk to keep in the fridge, as the in-room supply is dried non-dairy

“Beautiful, peaceful, welcoming place to stay. Exceptional gardens, great food.”
+Beautifully maintained property, exceptional gardens. Loved hearing birdsong and watching monkeys and even peacocks in the trees. Saw a huge eagle circling overhead one day. Staff were exceptionally warm, friendly and helpful. Food was awesome - both western and Sri Lankan. We stayed with 2 kids who both really enjoyed it. It’s near Ravana adventure park and the blue cave trips. 20 mins out of Ella.
−Slightly dubious WiFi intermittently. For us we might’ve been better situated in Ella for various reasons but this is on us not the property.

“My second stay at this fancy place”
+This was my second time staying with Planters Bungalow. The establishment is first rate. Rooms and facilities are fantastic. Close enough to Ella to get to things easily but far enough away to be tranquil and unhurried.
−Food selection was minimal and it the same over many days. Expensive dinner dishes featuring meat or fish were overcooked and tough. However these are not Sri Lankan dishes so I shouldn’t hold them to such high standards…..
