The resort offers breathtaking views of the mountains and Ella Rock that enhance the entire experience. The rooms are adequately sized for the price, but some may find them a bit cramped. The service was exceptional, with staff going out of their way to organize activities and transport. However, the location requires a tuk-tuk ride to get to downtown Ella, which might not be ideal for everyone.
