A Review of Glenross Living in Sri Lanka| Hotels Above Par

"Set on a 98-acre rubber, tea and cinnamon estate in the Kalutara Highlands, this Sri Lankan‑led 10‑bedroom boutique retreat blends colonial manor charm with seven standalone villas and three historic plantation‑house suites. Floor‑to‑ceiling windows and jungle‑facing balconies frame sweeping tea‑plantation views, many villas include a private plunge pool, and the ground‑floor restaurant—with a particularly coveted front‑lawn table—serves both international and Sri Lankan‑centric plates against magical sunset backdrops. Wellness is central here: offerings range from a structured three‑night Sleep Retreat (aromatherapy blends, daily yoga, sleep‑promoting foods and chamomile teas) and morning yoga with panoramic views to Angampora lessons and a full spa menu of facials and massages. Onsite activities emphasize the estate itself, with guided treks through cinnamon fields and tours about Sri Lanka’s cinnamon trade, plus hiking trails that traverse the property; nearby excursions include the colonial coastal town of Galle, Kande Vihara temple and Thudugala Ella Waterfall. The property feels delightfully secluded (reached via a narrow, curvaceous dirt road), positioned about 1h30 from the main international airport, with rates starting around $426/night."

Highly recommend Glen Ross Living! The staff were absolutely amazing and took such good care of us. The food was so delicious, and the rooms were very clean with super comfortable beds. It truly felt like 5-star service. I can’t express enough how great the experience was. Definitely the best place we’ve stayed so far and 100% worth the price! Will definitely come to stay again.

Glenross is truly a hidden gem — just about an hour’s drive from Colombo, but it feels like a world away. The moment you arrive, you’re welcomed with warmth and a sense of calm that’s hard to find elsewhere. The rooms are cozy, beautifully maintained, and the entire property has a serene ambiance that instantly makes you feel at home. The service is exceptional — friendly, attentive, and genuinely caring. The food is absolutely delicious, with a homely touch that makes every meal comforting and satisfying. Whether you’re staying for a longer break or just a quick weekend getaway, Glenross is the perfect escape to relax, unwind, and recharge. Pro tip: Bring along some quality liquor or spirits to enjoy in the peaceful setting — it really adds to the chill vibe. Can’t recommend this place enough if you need a break from the city and want to treat yourself to some well-deserved peace and quiet!

Our family had the privilege of staying at Glenross Living from 16th to 19th June 2025, and the experience far surpassed our expectations, leaving an indelible mark on our hearts. This serene haven, nestled amidst lush forests, offers an unparalleled blend of luxury, authenticity, and heartfelt hospitality, making it a destination we wholeheartedly recommend.|We were accommodated in Villas 5 and 7 – my wife, Jennifer, and I in Villa 7, and our son, Joshua, in Villa 5. The villas are a testament to thoughtful design and impeccable craftsmanship. They mirror the stunning imagery showcased online, boasting elegant interiors, modern amenities, and a sense of privacy that allows guests to fully immerse themselves in the tranquillity of the surroundings. The attention to detail in the villas’ furnishings and layout reflects the high standards upheld by Glenross Living, ensuring both comfort and aesthetic delight.|One of the highlights of our stay was our introduction to yoga and meditation under the expert guidance of Sumegha Rao. As novices, we approached these sessions with curiosity and were rewarded with an experience that was both transformative and deeply moving. Practising amidst the forest, with playful monkeys traversing the treetops and the gentle rustle of leaves as our soundtrack, created a profound connection with nature that we will cherish forever. Sumegha’s patience and skill made these sessions accessible and inspiring, fostering a sense of calm that permeated our entire stay.|The spa facilities at Glenross Living are equally remarkable. Joshua and I indulged in Balinese massages, which were executed with exceptional professionalism and care. The serene ambience of the spa, coupled with the therapists’ expertise, provided a restorative experience that left us feeling rejuvenated and at peace. This dedication to guest wellness underscores the holistic ethos of Glenross Living.|However, it is the staff who truly elevate Glenross Living from an exceptional retreat to an extraordinary one. Their warmth, professionalism, and genuine care transformed our stay into something truly special.|Larry, the host, is a remarkable individual whose passion for Glenross and its surroundings is infectious. His commitment to ensuring our comfort was evident in every interaction. Larry went above and beyond, personally guiding us on a visit to a local Buddha temple, which offered a fascinating glimpse into the region’s cultural heritage. He also led Joshua on an exhilarating jungle walk, sharing insights about the local flora and fauna that captivated our son’s imagination. Larry’s tour of the cinnamon and tea plantations was both educational and engaging, deepening our appreciation for the area’s agricultural traditions. Additionally, he introduced us to a nearby lake under development, showcasing Glenross’s commitment to sustainable tourism. When it came time to depart, Larry seamlessly arranged our transport to our next destination, ensuring a stress-free transition. His boundless energy, enthusiasm, and attentiveness made him the cornerstone of our experience, and we cannot praise him highly enough.|Our butler, Dilshan, was an absolute standout, providing impeccable service that elevated our stay to new heights. Dilshan’s attentiveness, professionalism, and genuine warmth made every moment effortless and enjoyable. From anticipating our needs with thoughtful gestures to ensuring our villas were perfectly maintained, he demonstrated an extraordinary dedication to our comfort. His friendly demeanour and ability to make us feel at home were truly remarkable, and we are immensely grateful for his outstanding contribution to our experience.|We also extend our heartfelt gratitude to Udara and Ishara, whose exceptional service and warm personalities left a lasting impression. From the moment we arrived, they greeted us with genuine smiles and an unwavering willingness to assist. Whether it was offering recommendations, ensuring our villas were immaculate, or simply engaging in friendly conversation, Udara and Ishara made us feel like cherished guests rather than mere visitors. Their dedication and professionalism are a credit to Glenross Living and a reflection of the exemplary standards upheld by the entire team.|The culinary offerings at Glenross Living deserve special mention. Each meal was a celebration of local flavours, prepared with fresh, high-quality ingredients and presented with care. Dining amidst the natural beauty of the property, with attentive service from the staff, including Dilshan’s meticulous attention to detail, elevated every meal into a memorable occasion. The team’s ability to cater to our preferences while introducing us to authentic Sri Lankan cuisine was greatly appreciated.|Glenross Living is more than a destination; it is an experience that nurtures the body, mind, and soul.

Our family is already eagerly planning a return visit to this hidden gem, confident that it will once again exceed our expectations.|To Larry, Dilshan, Udara, Ishara, and the entire Glenross Living team: thank you for crafting an unforgettable stay. Your passion, professionalism, and genuine care make Glenross a beacon of hospitality.

A Hidden Gem in Kalutara – Truly a 5-Star Experience! 🌿✨ We recently spent a few unforgettable days at this beautiful property in Kalutara for our anniversary, and it truly blew us away. We honestly didn’t expect to find such a peaceful, luxurious escape tucked away in Kalutara — it felt like a hidden paradise. We stayed in Villa No. 3, and it was absolutely stunning — spacious, private, and elegantly designed. The private pool was perfect for a quiet, relaxing dip, and the views around us were so calming. From the very beginning, the hospitality was outstanding. Larry welcomed us with such warmth and kindness — it really set the tone for the rest of the stay. Harshana made sure to check in with us every day to see how we were doing and whether we were enjoying the food and stay. Dulshan, our personal butler, was super friendly, helpful, and always attentive. Udara, who served our meals, was lovely and made sure we had everything we needed. And the kind uncle who drove the buggy was so sweet and always went the extra mile to make us feel comfortable and cared for — even handled room service with such a gentle, friendly attitude. And the food… oh wow — absolute chef’s kiss! 👨‍🍳👌🏻 Every single meal was delicious, well-presented, and clearly made with so much care. We looked forward to each dish — it really added to the whole experience. Everything about this place — the peaceful ambiance, friendly staff, amazing food, and luxurious villa — made our anniversary truly special. Honestly, it deserves a full 5-star rating, not 4. It has everything you’d expect from a top-tier resort — and more. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a romantic, peaceful escape with incredible service, food, and comfort. We can’t wait to come back! ❤️

The room we stayed in was hands down the coziest and most spacious I’ve ever experienced—honestly, it felt like stepping into a boutique suite straight out of a luxury travel magazine! Every piece of furniture was perfectly placed, creating a vibe that was both elegant and homey. It wasn’t just a room; it was an experience.|The staff went above and beyond—especially Ajith, who deserves a special shout-out for being incredibly attentive and kind. Their support was off the charts (easily a 120% effort, if not more).|The food? Absolutely divine. Every meal was a treat packed with flavor and made with care.|There’s just one area where the hotel could level up: improving the timeliness of certain services. A bit more speed would make the entire stay flawless.
