We stayed here as a family around new year eve. A very quiet and tranquil experience, with friendly staff, clean environment and tasty food. The jungle trek was excellent (beginner friendly) and the pool at the end of it was a delight. Overall would come back again to this place.

We stayed at Clio Ella Jungle Resort for 2 nights from 10th to 12th February, booking 3 rooms for our family getaway. First of all, I would like to give a special shout-out to Mr. Perera, who took great care of us during our stay. He was attentive, helpful, and very professional throughout. The rest of the ground staff were also very friendly and genuinely tried their best to assist us and apologize whenever issues arose. The location is absolutely fabulous, right next to the river, offering a peaceful jungle atmosphere. The food was delicious, and we truly enjoyed the meals during our stay. However, there were very disappointing experiences that must be mentioned. The most unacceptable incident was related to hygiene. On the first night, rats entered my sister’s room. One even came onto the bed in the middle of the night while they were sleeping. This was a shocking and extremely unpleasant situation. Sadly, on the following night, I experienced the same issue in my own room. There were rats running on the window curtains, and I had to call the housekeeping team in the middle of the night while my baby boy was sleeping. Both nights, we did not get proper sleep due to this unhygienic situation. This is something no guest should ever have to experience. While the ground staff tried very hard to handle the situation and sincerely apologized to us, I was quite surprised that the management did not take stronger action or responsibility regarding such a serious matter. I work closely with hotels on a daily basis and have stayed in many properties, but this was the first time I experienced rats running inside a guest room. It was very embarrassing for me, especially in front of my family, as I was the one who arranged this stay for them. I strongly believe the management should take urgent action to resolve this issue and ensure proper hygiene standards are maintained. Guests deserve a safe, clean, and comfortable environment.

We were two couples who booked this property for two nights, and unfortunately, it turned out to be a complete nightmare. From the very first night, the experience was alarming. Upon entering our room, we found a squirrel and a large mouse inside. This was extremely frightening, and we spent the entire night anxious and unable to rest. To make matters worse, after 11 PM the property staff switched off their phones, leaving us with no support during an emergency. The rooms have open roof gaps, which allow animals like mice and squirrels to freely enter. We raised this issue after the first night, and the management changed our rooms for the second night. Sadly, the problem continued. There were monkeys on the roof, and during the second night, an animal (most likely a mouse) ate the strawberries, milk pudding, and other food kept in the room. Another unsettling aspect was that out of nearly 25 rooms, only our two rooms were occupied. The entire property felt deserted and isolated, located deep in the jungle, which made the experience even more uncomfortable and unsafe. Access to the property is only via a cable car, which felt highly unreliable and unsafe, as if it could stop or fail at any moment. After checking other reviews, we learned that if the cable car stops working, there is no alternative access—guests are expected to hike to or from the property, which is completely impractical. Additionally, the resort is located around 10–15 km outside Ella, so you miss out on Ella’s pleasant weather and convenience altogether. Overall, we strongly do not recommend booking this property. The safety concerns, lack of staff support, wildlife intrusion, and poor accessibility make it an extremely stressful experience rather than a relaxing stay.

We stayed one night at Jungle Resort in August, booking 3 rooms. While the location is undeniably beautiful and surrounded by nature, the overall experience was very poor. Access to the resort was unsafe and disorganised, and the cable car felt unreliable. It took nearly 2 hours to get our bags to the rooms. The rooms were extremely basic with poor lighting, gaps in doors and windows, old and dirty rugs, insufficient airconditioning (we had a small unit for AC), minimal room amenities, large gaps in glass sliding door allowing entry for insects or even small animals, inconsistent water supply, sink blockage, and multiple power cuts. Food (Breakfast) was cold, poorly presented, and left unattended — with flies all around. Although the staff tried their best, the management and logistics were clearly lacking. Most disappointing was that after emailing the resort to share our concerns, no one responded. Yet they seem quick to reply to positive reviews. I'm genuinely surprised to see the positive reviews here, as our experience was cpmpletely the opposite. We paid a price comparable to a 5-star property — but this resort wouldn't even deserve 1 star based on our experience. Definitely would not recommend.

Wonderful surrounding with the nature and absolutely a calm and peaceful environment.only thing is property not maintained for so long and you have ti keep eye on every steps you take

Best oasis hotel in Sri Lanka
The only hotel in the world to cable car me in. And maybe my favourite hotel in Sri Lanka. Very relaxing as no internet in rooms and I read and listened to waterfall. Heaps of room to do yoga.

21.07.2025 allahditta_khan

It was a surreal experience. Like we were literally middle in the nature. The small trip from the main gate to the entrance of the Estate was adventurous. There is a cable car which takes you to the reception. Our room was just beside the stream which I suggest everyone to take. The staff were friendly and helpful which added up the breathtaking views experience. Specially Dulanja Samith was super friendly. It is in nature where you can find monkeys, birds and beautiful peacocks roaming around.

You need to be physically fit to enjoy fully. Travellers with experience of the world will appreciate the understated luxury.

Dulanga and his team was great House keeping- Tharindu, Shehan, Dilshan Kudos to chef for wonderful food. Doggys- Brunow, Tiger, Chiku Property is in the heaven. If you are visiting to Srilanka definitely visit this place Elle jungle resort.

The place is amidst the nature right in the middle of the forest(like literally middle). Property is great with superb location offering very comfortable and cozy cottages that has access to the stream flowing from the Ravana waterfalls.. Breakfast was so good, tasty and the quantity for two people was more than enough with all the variety on offer. A special mention goes out to their staff(Tharindu, Shehan & Dilshan) but most importantly a special mention goes to my buddy Dulanja who made no stones unturned to make our stay ever more special. Finally the three guards of the resort (Bruno, Tiger & Chiku) their cuteness was overwhelming and overloaded also they never left us out of their sights to ensure we were in good hands all the time.. A must must recommend please do visit..
