Ella Planters Bungalow

Total number of rooms: 10 | Prices start from 109.86 US$

This eco-friendly gem is a beautifully converted hill-country tea-planter’s bungalow. It’s a sanctuary with only a few units! Each room is designed to feel personal. Expect garden views, cozy seating areas, and thoughtful touches like a work desk and dining table. Bathrooms are modern, but the soul of the property lies in its history. You’re surrounded by lush tea country, with cycling and hiking trails that begin almost at the doorstep.

But what really steal the show are the cooking classes. Guests rave about them, it’s an opportunity to master local dishes with authentic techniques.

The atmosphere is boutique at its best: intimate, relaxed, and connected to nature. There’s a small pool, barbecue facilities for evenings outdoors, and even water sports activities for the adventurous. The in-house restaurant keeps things fresh and local, with the option to request packed lunches if you’re heading out on a hike. For drinks, the bar offers both cocktails and nonalcoholic favorites.

Good to know: The bungalow’s structure has been preserved from the colonial tea era, making it one of the rare stays in Ella where you actually live in a planter’s heritage home. It’s eco-friendly too, with small-scale operations and a focus on sustainable experiences.
