Uva Greenlands Estate (Pvt) Ltd has signed a landmark agreement with the Board of Investment of Sri Lanka (BOI) on 29th May, marking a defining milestone in the evolution of 98 Acres Resort & Spa, Sri Lanka\u2019s celebrated luxury retreat nestled in the breathtaking highlands of Ella.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The transformative USD 5.1 million investment will unlock a bold new chapter for 98 Acres Resort & Spa, redefining the boundaries of ultra-luxury hospitality in Sri Lanka and cementing the island\u2019s reputation as a premier destination for discerning global travellers. Set to unfold across two phases over 36 months, the expansion will create approximately 150 direct employment opportunities, generating meaningful economic impact for the Uva region and reinforcing Sri Lanka\u2019s standing as a high-value tourism economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This marks the second BOI project under the Vella Group\u2019s travel and tourism sector, further solidifying the growing presence in Sri Lanka\u2019s luxury tourism landscape. Group\u2019s first BOI venture, the acclaimed Ravana Pool Club in Ella, is an award-winning landmark setting a compelling benchmark for experiential hospitality celebrated on the world stage. With the upcoming expansion of 98 Acres Resort & Spa, the Group is poised to build on that success, once again raising the bar for world-class tourism in Sri Lanka.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe believe it is our shared responsibility to elevate Sri Lanka\u2019s tourism industry to the next level. This investment reflects our commitment to introducing a new era of refined luxury and world-class hospitality creating greater value for the industry and the country, while redefining what destination hospitality truly means in Sri Lanka,\u201d Eranda Abeyratne, Director and Co-Founder of Vella said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The expansion is a testament to Vella Group\u2019s unwavering long-term vision: delivering immersive, experience-led hospitality that is globally competitive yet deeply rooted in Sri Lanka\u2019s extraordinary natural beauty and cultural identity. With this agreement, Vella Group and BOI Sri Lanka signal a shared ambition to position the country not merely as a tourism destination, but as a benchmark for sustainable luxury hospitality in Asia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
