Nine Skies

Nine Skies is a true hidden gem. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by the incredibly friendly staff who went out of their way to make us feel at home. The food was absolutely outstanding (fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented at every meal). Our room was spotless, tastefully decorated, and offered a stunning view of the lush surroundings. Every detail, from the peaceful ambiance to the personalized service, made our stay unforgettable. If you’re looking for a boutique escape that combines comfort, charm, and exceptional hospitality, Nine Skies is the perfect choice. Highly recommended for a serene retreat!

Nine Skies is simply stunning. From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the beautiful setting among tea plantations and the peaceful atmosphere. The bungalow has so much charm, with lovely rooms that are both elegant and comfortable. The staff were incredible—so friendly and attentive, making us feel completely at home. The food was outstanding too, with fresh local flavors and the afternoon tea was a real treat. We loved exploring the area and then relaxing by the pool with those amazing views. It’s the perfect place to unwind and enjoy the best of Ella. I wish we could have stayed longer!

This hotel is literally a dream come true - the staff are all excellent and the food is outrageously good! An amazing part of an amazing Sri Lanka adventure - this place is the most wonderful place to stay! If you get the chance to go here, you must, the peace is next level!

Nine Skies is absolutely wonderful! We had only one regret about our stay there - we should have stayed longer! We are a family of four and stayed in Ella Rock Suite, we had plenty of room and the beds were very comfortable and the room silent. The staff and service was out of this world! We lived like kings.Everyone was incredibly friendly and welcoming, and our children felt immediately at home. We stayed at 5 teardrop hotels (they are all fantastic) and did a Teardrop Journey - which I REALLY recommend. Our journey included many activities. At Nine Skies we did the guided Little Adam's Peak trek, did the ziplining at Ravana, walked to the Nine Arch bridge and went down to Udawalawe national park. These were all carefully curated for families in mind and our kids were incredibly sad to leave. The food (all included!) was fantastic, they catered for the vegetarians in our group very well, adapting the menu and offering to cook different meals if wanted. We loved the Kotto night! In summary, this was one of the best places we have ever been and return tomorrow if we could. Book it!

An amazing stay in an exquisitely run hotel. We couldn’t fault the attention to detail and the attentive way we were looked after. The welcome was very friendly and we were made to feel at ease straightaway. The room was very well appointed and very spacious with a lovely deep bath as well as a shower. The pool area was lovely and immaculate. The food was outstanding with a varied menu. All in all a wonderful place to stay.
