Our stay at Dowa Elegance Resort in Ella was truly unforgettable. The resort provided the perfect blend of comfort, excellent service, and serene surroundings. One of the highlights of our visit was the delicious traditional Sri Lankan dinner that was specially arranged for us upon request, a truly authentic and flavorful experience. The location of the resort is absolutely stunning. Perched in the hills, it offers breathtaking views of the mountains and lush greenery, with a peaceful atmosphere that made our stay incredibly relaxing. Waking up to the mist-covered landscape and taking in the panoramic scenery of Ella was nothing short of magical. I highly recommend Dowa Elegance Resort to anyone visiting Ella. The combination of warm hospitality, natural beauty, and peaceful ambiance made it a standout part of our Sri Lankan journey.

The view from the room is breathtaking. The place is quiet and serene. The staff is really sweet, helpful and professional. The beds are comfortable and washrooms are clean.
The washrooms had a slight stale smell but overall everything was great. It's slightly far from Ella town but we had a car and driver so we didn't really mind. The view and property was worth the drive.

The staff was very helpful, the property is very clean, comfortable. They provide breakfast and me being a vegetarian they customized the breakfast as per my choice which was really rewarding. I would recommend this property if staying in Ella. A lil off beat place, not near the nine arches bridge but the mountain views are exceptional. Must stay.

The room is spacious and beautiful! The location is stunning with amazing views all around. The staff is extremely friendly and accommodating, would definitely recommend.
The location is a little confusing to reach and far from the city. Make sure you drive in with a Sri Lankan driver, particularly in the day light, because it’s easy to get lost. Also, because it’s in the middle of the mountain, there can be a lot of insects - come prepared.

Very positive surprise when coming there after a bad experience in another hotel. The room is huge with a large area for the bed, a space for dressing and coffe/tea and another space for desk. The bathroom is clean and confortable. The private terrace is particularly big and offers an amazing view. Everything was perfect, the staff is very nice and food was excellent!

The whole place was awesome. Location at the Highland provided us the opportunity to have the eagle view of the valley below. Room and everything in are all new and functional. Balcony was the bonus. All staff were courteous and helpful. We love this place.

Location bit away from Ella, but very beautiful scenery. Spacious rooms and modern bathrooms. Staff very friendly and attentive. The food was good. Can recommend for any one visiting the area.
The directions and distance from Ella could have been better indicated. The location is really Dowa and not Ella. Other than that all is great.

Location is great. Getting there is a little difficult as directional boards are not there. The room is exceptional. All the facilities are there. The food is great.
It’s a little away from Ella near Dowa. Directional boards not being there was a minus. Tuk tuk hotel transport is available but a small van would be better.
