This was an absolute oasis and one of the biggest highlights of our Sri Lanka trip. Flawless service throughout from Ragu, Pugal and the whole team. Unforgettable accommodation and experience. The tour of the surrounding tea fields was brilliant. Cannot recommend more highly.

I really enjoyed staying here. the atmosphere was fantastic. it was an amazing view. the landlord is respectful. there is a special person here his name is Akila and I never met like him. he is not just helpful but also has huge historical information about the country, which will help you to understand many things in Sri Lanka. his hospitality is something I can't explain as I think you will see something different if you visit this place and meet this man. they can make your food as well. I recommend this villa, especially for family. there are 5 rooms and you can book the whole Villa as a family and enjoy the place. I felt as if I was at home. just the Road need some maintenance, but they can take you from the main road through the top of the hill. only thing the internet is quite not good but for me I don't care about it but I have to be honest, However the told me that the company was doing some maintenance for the tower of communications.

Very unique property, in the middle of a tea plantation. Everything was exceptional - the setting, the room, the delicious meals we were served, and the staff, who were really accommodating. We booked three rooms, which made the property literally just for us to enjoy. It was, indeed, a very unique experience.

Everything about the villa was amazing. From the luxurious interior to the breathtaking view of the surrounding mountains, dam and tea plantations, our experience here was wonderful and a much needed getaway in an extremely calm and serene place. We were hosted by the very warm and cheerful Akila and served delicious meals prepared by the talented in-house chef.

La Grande Villa is a must to do if you are coming at NUWARA ELIYA. You can feel the luxury England atmosphere everywhere. The room is fabulous, the food is delicious and all the staff was so caring, so helpful and so nice. You can count on the receptionist Farhan if you need anything, count on the chef if you want to eat Sri Lankan, Indian or English food and count on the staff to makes you feel like a VIP guest. Thanks to all of you for this unforgettable stay. I warmly recommend that place.
