Ella Ravana Pool Club Dip & Dine+2 Free Cocktails!+Zipline

The unusual part of this Ella outing is the combination: one Flying Ravana zipline ride followed by a heated pool overlooking Ella’s green hills, with lunch or dinner and two cocktails included. You get a little motion, then a lot of sitting still. That makes it more than a standard pool visit, but less than a full-day adventure.

I like the clear package, with two hours of pool time and a seasonal three-course meal already built in. I also like the small-group limit of 10 and included pickup within 10 miles of Ravana Pool Club. The main consideration is price: at $149 per person, it offers good value only if you want the meal, drinks, pool access, transport, and zipline together.

Key points

• One Flying Ravana zipline ride: Add a short burst of adventure before settling into the pool.
• Two hours in a heated pool: You have a set pool allowance, so arrive ready to use it.
• Three-course seasonal meal: Choose from the available starter, main, and dessert options on arrival.
• Two cocktails included: The package covers two cocktails, while extra drinks cost more.
• Small group of up to 10: The limited group size should make transfers and hosting easier.
• Pickup within 10 miles of Ella Pool Club: Transport is included inside the stated radius, not beyond it.

A zipline, pool, and meal in one Ella afternoon

This experience is built around contrast. First, you take one ride on the Flying Ravana Zipline. Then you head to Ravana Pool Club for a slower two-hour session in a heated pool, with Ella’s lush surroundings behind you. A three-course meal and two cocktails fill out the package.

That shape works well for a holiday day when you want a few memorable moments without signing up for a demanding excursion. The zipline adds a thrill, but the main event is the pool club. You are not booking a full day of repeated rides or a long mountain program.

The advertised duration is three hours. Since two hours are reserved for pool time, the remaining hour covers the zipline, meal, drinks, and the movement between parts of the experience. Exact timing may depend on the starting slot and how the venue manages the meal and ride, so avoid booking another fixed activity immediately afterward.

Flying Ravana gives the outing its spark

The zipline is the part that separates this package from an ordinary pool and restaurant visit. You receive one ride, not unlimited access, so think of it as a single highlight rather than an entire adventure session.

The ride has been a strong point for the experience. Gayan, an English-speaking guide, was specifically praised for helping make the outing run well, and the zipline was described as very enjoyable. That is useful context if you want a guide present during the activity rather than simply being dropped at a venue.

You should also keep your expectations in the right place. One ride can be exciting, but it will pass quickly compared with the two hours at the pool. If your main reason for booking is ziplining, check that this package gives you the amount of action you want. If you want a balanced outing with one active moment and plenty of rest, the mix makes more sense.

The description uses the phrase zip in or zip out, suggesting flexibility in how the activity fits into the visit. The confirmed inclusion is one ride on Flying Ravana, while the exact order of the ride and meal may depend on the day’s arrangements.

Ravana Pool Club is the relaxed center of the visit

After the zipline, you get two hours of pool time. The pool is heated, which matters in a hill setting where the air may feel cooler than expected. You can use the water as a place to cool off, relax, and take in the greenery around Ella without giving up the comfort of a managed venue.

The pool area received positive attention, along with the club’s friendly staff. That makes the setting useful for a mixed group. One person can enjoy the atmosphere, another can focus on the meal, and someone else can treat the zipline as the main event.

There is one important limit: sunbeds are not included. They can be booked for an additional fee. If lying beside the pool is central to your plan, budget for that extra rather than assuming the package includes a reserved lounger.

The two-hour allowance is also firm enough to shape your visit. It is generous for a stop, but not an all-day pool pass. Extra pool time costs more, and extra food and drinks are also outside the package. I would use the included time deliberately: settle in, enjoy the water, take your meal break, and leave room for the zipline or return transfer.

The seasonal three-course meal keeps the plan simple

Your meal includes one starter, one main course, and one dessert. Starters include a range of soups, mains cover international dishes, and desserts offer a selection of sweet treats.

The menu changes with the season, so you receive the available choices when you arrive. This has two sides. You do not get to choose your meal weeks in advance, but you also avoid being tied to a fixed menu that may not suit the day’s kitchen options.

The meal is a real part of the value calculation. At $149, you are paying for more than admission to the pool and zipline. The meal gives the outing a proper break and makes it easier to plan a celebration, date, family treat, or small group gathering without searching for another restaurant afterward.

Still, do not book this package only for fine dining expectations. The supplied details describe a seasonal menu of soups, international dishes, and sweet treats, but they do not provide specific dishes, dietary options, or serving sizes. If you have food restrictions, ask the provider before booking rather than relying on the menu reveal at arrival.

The timing of the meal is not fully specified. It may come before or after the pool and zipline, so consider the practical side of your day. Some people prefer eating after an active ride, while others would rather have food first and keep the rest of the visit calm.

Two cocktails make the package feel like a celebration

Two cocktails are included per person. That small detail changes the tone of the outing. The package is designed not just as transport to a zipline, but as a social pool-club experience with food and drinks in the middle.

The cocktails work especially well for birthdays, honeymoons, and couples looking for a special stop. They can also add value for a group that would otherwise order drinks separately. The package does not specify the cocktail choices, alcohol content, or whether nonalcoholic alternatives are available, so ask if that matters to you.

Extra drinks are not included. The same goes for additional food. Keep that in mind if you plan to stay beyond the two-hour pool allowance or if you expect to order more than the included meal and drinks.

You should also plan responsibly around the zipline. Since the package includes both cocktails and a ride, confirm the activity order and follow the provider’s instructions about when drinks may be served. The supplied information does not state the sequence, so the guide or venue staff will be the best source on the day.

What the $149 price really covers

At $149 per person, this is a premium half-day style package for a three-hour experience. The price includes pickup and drop-off within 10 miles of Ella Pool Club, one zipline ride, two hours of pool access, two cocktails, and a three-course meal.

That can be fair value if you want all those pieces. Transport alone can simplify the day, especially when you are combining a hill activity with a pool club and meal. The small group limit of 10 is another advantage over a large coach-style outing.

The price is less attractive if you mainly want one ride on the zipline. In that case, much of what you are paying for is the pool, meal, drinks, and venue setting. Likewise, if you do not drink cocktails or do not plan to use the full two hours in the pool, the package may not suit your budget.

I would compare it with your own plan rather than judging the price in isolation. Add up the value of a private or shared transfer, a meal, two cocktails, pool entry, and the zipline. If you would buy most of those items anyway, the bundle becomes easier to justify. If you only want the ride, look for a simpler activity instead.

Pickup and a small group keep the logistics easy

Pickup and drop-off are included within a 10-mile radius of Ella Pool Club. That is a helpful benefit, but check your accommodation location carefully. The stated radius is limited, and the package does not promise transport from anywhere in Ella or from a farther town.

A small group of no more than 10 participants should make the outing feel more manageable. It also gives the English-speaking host or greeter a reasonable chance to explain the schedule and help coordinate the zipline, pool time, and meal.

The experience is listed as wheelchair accessible. That is valuable information for planning, although the details supplied do not explain how the zipline portion accommodates different mobility needs. If accessibility is important for you, contact Ceylon Pass before booking and ask specifically about the ride, pool access, transfers, and seating.

The activity offers free cancellation up to 24 hours before the start time, and you can reserve now while paying later. Those terms are useful when your Ella schedule may shift, especially if weather or transport affects your plans. The starting time depends on availability.

Who will enjoy this most

I would recommend this package to couples, families, and small groups who want a polished outing with several elements already arranged. It suits a birthday or honeymoon particularly well because the pool, meal, drinks, and zipline create a sense of occasion without requiring a full day.

It also works for people who are undecided between an adventure activity and a relaxing pool visit. You get both, though neither part is unlimited. The zipline is one ride, and the pool is two hours.

Families should check the provider’s age, height, or weight requirements for the zipline before booking. Those rules are not provided here. The package is not automatically ideal for every child simply because it is family-friendly in spirit.

You may want something else if your priority is a long zipline session, a quiet restaurant meal, or a full day beside the water. Extra pool time, sunbeds, food, and drinks all cost more, and the package has a fixed three-hour frame.

Practical tips for a smoother visit

Arrive ready to use the pool. Two hours can pass quickly once you include changing, eating, drinks, and the zipline.

Ask about the meal choices and cocktail options when you arrive. The menu is seasonal, and the included drinks are not described in detail.

Confirm the pickup radius before you pay. Included transport applies within 10 miles of the pool club.

If you want a sunbed, reserve one as an extra. It is not part of the standard package.

Give yourself breathing room around the booking. The total duration is three hours, but the exact starting time and activity order depend on availability and the day’s arrangements.

Should you book the Ravana Pool Club package?

Book it if you want a social, polished Ella outing that joins one exciting zipline ride with a heated pool, a proper meal, two cocktails, and transport. The good feedback about Gayan’s guiding, the zipline, the food, the pool area, and the friendly staff supports the idea that the experience is strongest as an all-in-one celebration.

Skip it if you only want a longer zipline session or a cheap pool stop. At $149, you need to use several inclusions to get solid value. For the right occasion, though, the mix is appealing: one quick thrill, two hours of rest, and a meal that lets you enjoy Ella without planning every detail yourself.
