    Front door without curtain, I find it's bit less privacy. Water leak in bathroom should be fixed for this price villa.

    The overall villa is nice and comfortable. Breakfast is very nice prepared. Staff are very well taking care of us even before our stay with all communication. Extra bonus is the available driver of the villa that could ask for service is super on point and safe driver.

    One small thing - the shower does not close properly so a lot of the water ends on the floor around it.

    Excellent place. The best accommodation we encountered in two weeks of travel. Cosy, clean, great view of the town and mountains around. Great shower and bath tub. Excellent breakfast. The manager was very helpful and accommodating.

    Nothing, everything was excellent!

    The villa was modern, spotlessly clean and had all the facilities you needed. I wish we had stayed longer but was heading to Ella the next day. It was a great place for us to relax with the children after a very busy few days! Like home from home. The staff as soon as we arrived were so very welcoming, collecting our luggage a few meters down the road as it is steep! The owner couldn't do enough for us, he ordered us a take away and arranged a tuk tuk to collect it for us, nothing was too much trouble. It was my sons birthday and at breakfast they brought balloons and a lovely cake, little touches like this made our staff very memorable and we couldn't recommend this stay enough. The views are lovely. It was misty and raining but cleared enough for us to see the beauty. Thank you for a wonderful stay for my family. The bed was the most comfortable we had stayed in throughout our travels in Sri Lanka and lovely to have multiple pillows! Thanks again! We even got a lovely little gift upon check out which was a lovely personal touch! Visa card accepted.

    The property was far more modern than we expected. It was spotlessly clean and the staff were really friendly and helpful. We arrived late afternoon and left early on the morning as we were getting the train to Ella, so we had a night in to enjoy what the property had to offer. Breakfast was delivered to the property in the morning, made up of fresh fruit,yoghurt, bread for toast and jam, and freshly cooked omelette. More than enough for our 3 hour train journey! Just wish we had a little more time to enjoy the bath and the amazing views x

    The drainage for the sinks and shower had issues. The water was leaking from the shower cubicle and made the bathroom floor wet.

    The villa was beautiful with nice garden and Mountain View. Breakfast was served in the villa and was a good one. Staff were friendly and helpful. The villa gets a lot of nice sunlight in the day.

The villa is made in fantastic design in and out, bathroom is to die for <3 This is the best place I stayed in Sri Lanka.

    It is a bit away from the city center, but with a TukTuk super okay. However, with being away from the city, you get a relaxing environment. I guess in the center, you don’t want to stay anyways, since it’s busy, crowded, loud and not nice.

    The hotel has some maisonett villas, with living room, kitchen and toilet downstairs, and two double beds and a big bath upstairs. It looks like on Fotos. It was the best room we stayed in Sri Lanka and worth the money. Super comfortable beds, nice interior and great views. The property manager is super polite, prompt and helpful. You can easily get in touch via WhatsApp and he also arranged the tuktuk to go into a nice restaurant. Breakfast will be served in the room. I would always book it again and send my best wishes to the team of Luxe Wilderness

    The location was a bit scary since we were in a van and going up the mountain was steep. I even went down the van and started walking to the place because the road was very scary.

    The view was wonderful. Staff was really friendly. He did a nice job with the breakfast. The first floor was clean with three bags and one bathroom the bathroom was clean and big with two sinks

    Hand down one of the BEST hotels ive stayed in Sri Lanka. I have stayed in many hotels across the world and this one stands out as truly amazing. A hidden gem. Firstly the property is immaculate! Clean and beautiful! The scenery is breathtaking, we couldnt stop taking videos of it from the balcony, the garden and inside. Bathroom is huge, overlooking the scenery. Fresh flowers in bathroom and dining table. It smells very nice as soon as you walk in. Location is very convenient. But what has trully blown us away is the service. The staff are on another level. Firstly they message you with information before you even reach. Once u reach you receive royalty treatment with a smile! Shameera is always available to help, assisted us in ordering food and arranged to light a bonfire for us in the garden with blankets. We enjoyed the stars and warm fire, very cosey. They even gave us a special surprise at the end of our stay. I honestly wish i could stay longer and will definitely return. It is worth every penny.

    We absolutely loved our stay! The location was super quiet, and the terrace offered immaculate views of the town, where we spent a lot of our time. The bath with a view was a big highlight. The owners were exceptional, providing tips on food, organising taxis, accommodating a later checkout, and arranging pick-up from the station—they truly went above and beyond. The breakfast spread was fantastic! We found it hard to find places to stay here, so this is a must stay. Just around 10 minute tuk tuk to the town

    Nothing, it was perfect

    This place is even better than the photos. It’s a two story villa with a well equipped kitchen, upstairs bedroom with views forever, and the bath was a very special treat. We felt so at home here, cooked ourselves a meal with vegetables from the stall next door and relaxed on the comfy couch. I wish we had stayed longer to take advantage of the walks that can be accessed directly from the property. The staff a delightful. Highly recommend.

    No blackout curtains!! Really didn’t want to wake up at 7am on my holiday especially with a 4 year old one who thought it was time to play and wake up. Please consider blackout curtains!

    The location of this property is insane! Superb views even though it was raining and really misty, which is typical for Nuwara Eliya I guess. The villa was a little out of the way and we’ve had some trouble with tuk tuk/taxi drivers not knowing where the location is. However, the place is really nice and I wish we were staying there for a little longer.

    We had such a fantastic stay at this absolute gem in Nuwara Eliya! This place deserves more than 10 rating. My husband and I stayed here for 3 nights as part of our honeymoon trip around Sri Lanka and it’s been our highlight accommodation so far. The villa is beautiful, so comfortable and super cosy. The views are insane. So beautiful. Yummy breakfast too! What makes this place so special is how much the staff put into the service and making your stay memorable. A very special shoutout to Shameera who went above and beyond to look after us. The gestures and attention were so thoughtful. He is the absolute best! Thank you Luxe Wilderness and thank you Shameera for such an amazing stay. We wish we could have stayed even longer!
