For travellers who love being in nature with an added sense of luxury. Also called glamping, tented camps provide full or limited services, while surrounded by the wilderness. Typically in permanent or semi-permanent camps, these private tents/yurts are a great way to rough it while staying glamorous.
The breakfast was amazing, and so was the view. We enjoyed being out of town and surrounded by beautiful nature. We saw a lot of interesting wildlife on our veranda. The king suite was huge and had a nice bathroom. Chanaka was very attentive, warm and welcoming.
Great location just a few minutes walk down to the main street. The room was large and very clean and comfortable, with tea and coffee provided. We were also given an iced tea welcome drink. The balcony area is nice to relax on and the upstairs restaurant has beautiful views and a nice big couch and hammock to chill in if you need some downtime but don’t want to be stuck in your room. The staff were all super friendly. Good hot showers with decent pressure. Wifi worked well.
Amazing amazing view and host that lovely welcomed us. I loved spending time sitting outside and enjoying the wilderness. Room was big spacious and clean. Beds comfortable with mosquito net. Breakfast delicious. staff was very attentive and helpful. with AC room was comfortable at night as it gets Calm and peaceful outside.
Beautiful view and quite rustic we loved the idea of booking something so different for a few nights of our travels.
The rooms were basic, clean and ours was quite small.
Bed had a mosquito net and the breakfast included was ok.
Staff were good and helped us by supplying a fan or arranging transport when we requested.
I had a lovely moment when all was quiet and I was able to have a tea and enjoy the view and wildlife.
A nice, attractive location overlooking the valley. A proper nature feel, in among the local greenery, fresh air and wildlife.
Run by a lovely family who will do whatever they can to make your stay enjoyable.
Tasty and substantial local breakfast.
Rooms are large and comfortable, mosquito nets available, and the bathroom sink 'waterfall' feature was a fun novelty. Several areas where you can sit and enjoy the views and nature with a drink in the evening.
First thing first; this place has its own waterfall. I mean, what else you want? 😄 We spent quality time there. We swam, we were chilling in the hammock. Definitely a highlight of this accomodation and of Ella in general.
The owner with his wife were an amazing hosts. Always smiling with good mood. They helped us arrange a trips around the ella, or they reccomended to us a way to travel to Yala. The food was good.
The accomodation were great. We've been in two of them. Clean and spacious. Beds were comfy with mosquito nets.
Large family room with mosquito nets and a big verandah with comfortable chairs looking out into the jungle… monkeys in the trees and on the deck in the morning. About 5 minutes walk down the hill onto town. Good breakfast
Nice guy running this hostel in his proper house
Small hostel so very nice atmosphere
Very close to everything...
Easy access to Ella s rock path as the railway is just 1min walk from there
Very convenient space in the dorm for each bed (something to hang your stuff, charger, mosquito net)
Hot shower
Comfortable bed in the dorm
You truly feel like you are in the middle of the jungle staying here! We felt completely emersed in Sri Lankan nature and wildlife.
The staff were very welcoming and made us cups of tea on arrival. We ordered dinner to the room and the food was excellent and great value for money.
We had to leave very early the next day for our Yala safari, but the team were there to greet us and had a takeaway breakfast ready at 4am!
Great hidden gem amongst the Sri Lankan wildernesses!
