“A wonderfully tranquil place with an extraordinary view.”
+A wonderfully tranquil place with an extraordinary view. The welcome was warm and heartfelt, and the whole family made me feel genuinely at home. I greatly enjoyed my two days here. A peaceful and memorable stay in Ella that I would happily recommend.

“Best room in Sri Lanka”
+This is the best place I have stayed during my 2 weeks in Sri Lanka. The view incredible. The food, just wow. Breakfast every day was something differet, fantastic portions and extremely tasty. The family that run it are the nicest people I have met in sri lanka, cannot do enough for you, the cake, the tea, everything just wow. Bed was huge and again the comfiest I've stayed in. Its a 10 minute walk to the centre but on those 10 minutes you get views, monkeys and locals. Do not hesitate to book this place.
−Absolutely nothing, would come back in a heart beat.

“We had a wonderful stay. Thank you so much to the host family.”
+The room was very comfortable but the view is the highlight! The staff were all so lovely and kind to us, available for anything we needed. The location was just a 15 minute walk to town. We shower never ran out of hot water :)
−You can hear the cars from the street bellow. This never bothered us much though.

+The room was very clean, spacious and omfortable and provides a great view on Ella's Rock. The breakfast is typically Sri Lankan which I really liked. The location itself is a 15 minute walk away from Ella's center, but I enjoyed the daily walks very much. Overall, I had a great stay there.

“Vue magnifique et petit déjeuner succulent.”
+Amabilité et disponibilité de la famille accueillante. Ne prenant normalement pas de PDJ, je me suis laissé surprendre à en dévorer un servi à mon insu! Chambre simple mais ayant tout le nécessaire.

+Allt var perfekt faktiskt, utsikten var enastående, mycket bra och good frukost, renlighet var toppen och de var mycket hjälpsamma och den unga manen var väldigt trevligt och snäll och det kändes att vi hade känt varandra länge under de 5 dagarna jag bodde där, unga damen brukade laga fantastiskt lunch åt mig, tusen tack för allt och hoppas vi kan ses igen snart.
−Ärligt talat ingenting och klaga på och jag varmt rekommenderar boendet, helt fantastiskt .
