It was peaceful, very green and beautiful and perfect for a breather from busy city life. The food (lunch) could do with some improvement though but this was not such a big deal. The service from the staff was also really good and professional! Oh, in the evening, there was no hot water available for a shower. I suspect this is because the heater is switched off at night so this is an easy fix. ##### GAUTAM Stayed 1 night in Dec 2017 ### 6/10 Okay #### Simei Dec 29, 2017 Disliked: Cleanliness ##### Simei Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Worldy Wise, F Mar 14, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Am home away from home Getting into Apa Villa Illuketia was like a dream. This place was totally magical. This retreat, the extensive gardens, the animals and the birds which roams freely about the property and the wonderful staff and delicious food made our stay awesome. I will definitely return as this place draws me back like a magnet. ##### Worldy Wise ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [98 Acres Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Ella-Hotels-98-Acres-Resort-Spa.h15504051.Hotel-Information) > > [Weligama Bay Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Weligama-Hotels-Weligama-Bay-Resort.h1487820.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Turks and Caicos](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-Turks-And-Caicos.d184.Hotel-Destinations) > > [Mandalay Bay Resort And Casino](https://www.expedia.ca/Las-Vegas-Hotels-Mandalay-Bay-Resort-And-Casino.h203613.Hotel-Information) > > [Weligama Bay Marriott Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Weligama-Hotels-Weligama-Bay-Marriott-Resort-Spa.h19413442.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Palm Springs](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels.d180676.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Shangri-La Hambantota](https://www.expedia.ca/Hambantota-Hotels-Shangri-La-Hambantota.h15083331.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Riu Sri Lanka - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Ahungalla-Hotels-Hotel-Riu-Sri-Lanka-All-Inclusive.h14754284.Hotel-Information) > > [Microtel Inn & Suites By Wyndham Fort St John](https://www.expedia.ca/Fort-St-John-Hotels-Microtel-Inn-Suites-By-Wyndham-Fort-St-John.h9776366.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Saskatoon](https://www.expedia.ca/Saskatoon-Hotels.d4117.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Red Deer](https://www.expedia.ca/Red-Deer-Hotels.d6139537.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [5 Star Hotels in Riviera Maya](https://www.expedia.ca/5Star-Riviera-Maya-Hotels.s50-0-d602901.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [FOX JAFFNA by Fox Resorts](https://www.expedia.ca/Jaffna-Hotels-FOX-JAFFNA-By-Fox-Resorts.h17399149.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Hyatt San Antonio River Walk](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Antonio-Hotels-Grand-Hyatt-San-Antonio-River-Walk.h1848212.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Vancouver (YVR) to Québec City (YQB)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/yqb/vancouver-to-quebec) > > [Flights from Vancouver (YVR) to Providenciales (PLS)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/pls/vancouver-to-providenciales) > > [Flights from Edmonton (YEG) to New York (LGA)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yeg/lga/edmonton-to-new-york) > > [Flights from Edmonton (YEG) to Honolulu (HNL)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yeg/hnl/edmonton-to-honolulu) > > [Flights from Montreal (YUL) to Toronto (YYZ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yul/yyz/montreal-to-toronto) > > [Flights from Montreal (YUL) to Sao Paulo (GRU)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yul/gru/montreal-to-sao-paulo) > > [Flights from Sault Ste.
