“Peaceful escape nearby to Ella”
+Upon arrival, we were greeted by the host, who showed us our room and offered us tea or coffee. The stay is beautiful and located outside of Ella in a peaceful location. Beautiful table outside to sit out and relax and a hammock too! Be aware that it is about 25 minute walk downhill into Ella or a tuktuk. The bedroom and bathroom were big. Good, comfy bed with mosquito net and warm water for the shower. You could choose what time to have breakfast, which was delicious - coconut roti, fruits, juice, coffee/tea, toast etc. Plenty of food to try! Host was very quick and helpful at replying to WhatsApp messages. She arranged a tuktuk on our last day to the station for us too for 1000LKR. I would 100% recommend staying here - we felt safe and looked after the whole time.

+מקןם קטן וביתי עם 2 בקתות. הגדולה ( הצהובה) שווה יותר ועם נןף יפה לעמק. אי אפשר להגיע עם רכב ממש עד המקום אלא עם ריקשה. כל ההקפצות על חשבון המארחים ( 2 דקות נסיעה מהכביש הראשי). סנטה הבעלים ואישתו מקסימים ועשו הכל כדי שנרגיש בבית. שלחנו דרכם כביסה. חזרה במצב מעולה. ארוחת בוקר טעימה ומפנקת.

“This place is perfect for people who enjoy privacy & nature”
+We loved the hosts! They were very attentive and professional, and overall really nice . The rooms was big, with a beautiful view to the open quiet nature. The design & decor are absolutely beautiful! You can tell they care about every detail and have lots of love to the place. The room had everything we needed, they even have a card game and free clean water, coffee and tea :) Breakfast was yummy, with fresh ingredients and big variety! The sheets & towels smelled amazing, and beds were so comfortable! Distance to town is like a 10min drive via Tuktuk. Costs roughly 1,000 rupees one way
−1. If you’re working remotely this might not be the place for you. The house is in a valley so both signal and WiFi are weak. 2. Water pressure is low so if you have a long hair it’s going to be a little challenging. * that being said, they might work on fixing both issues in the future so might be worth asking :)

“A peaceful home-away-from-home.”
+I loved my stay here, it was peaceful and in such a beautiful setting. Before I had even arrived, I had received a text from the hosts asking if I needed anything, and they easily organized me a tuktuk to & from the property. The stay is in walking distance to the nine-arch bridge and is only 5 mins tuktuk from the main town. The room was very comfortable and has everything you may want or need, it's a true home away from home. The breakfast was exceptional!

“A tranquil and beautiful stay with lovely hosts and delicious breakfasts. Loved it.”
+Treetops Ella is a bit out of town. But that’s a good thing, for two reasons: Ella is BUSY. You don’t want to be right in town (or at least I don’t). You want to visit, sure, but you want the rest of your time to be peaceful. The other thing is, by being just a little out of town you get to be pretty much in the jungle. You will sit and eat your breakfast (more of that in a minute) listening to wildlife (it’s loud, but deeply relaxing) and being surrounded by deep greenery. In any case you can still walk into town if you want (i usually did) and then take a tuk tuk back (1000 rupees - about £2.50). No problem. The guest house itself - I loved it. Clean, comfortable and, as I’ve said, peaceful. Everything you might want is in the room for you - a mini bar, a kettle with tea bags etc, bottled water and even a yoga mat. The owners were lovely - perfectly friendly without being intrusive. And then there was the breakfast…. Every day it was gorgeous. Photo-worthy even. And different Sri Lankan specialties every day. It was plentiful too - I never had a lunch in Ella! It was, at the time of writing, my favourite stay in Sri Lanka.
−There was nothing that I didn’t like about the property, particularly if you don’t mind it being out of town and down a bit of a track (I didn’t - and tuk tuks can get there, no problem)

“Hidden gem in Ella - don't miss it!”
+We stayed three nights at Treetops and really loved it. The property is a little outside Ella center, only a short tuktuk ride away though, which means it’s wonderfully peaceful, away from traffic and noise. The terrace and the view over the jungle and surrounding greenery are beautiful and make it a perfect place to relax. The owners are a lovely couple, very friendly, respectful and always ready to help. The room is thoughtfully equipped with lots of little extras that make your stay more comfortable, such as games, books, yoga mats, an umbrella, and even a lantern for early morning hikes. The minibar is well stocked and fairly priced. Breakfast is homemade, served on the terrace, and was always peaceful and really delicious. We would definitely recommend this place for anyone staying in Ella.

“Perfekt!”
+Ganz ganz tolle Unterkunft die zu 100% zu empfehlen ist. Das Zimmer war sehr geräumig, toll eingerichtet und sauber. Die Gastgeber sind so herzlich und helfen einem bei allen Fragen weiter, geben Tipps und organisieren Fahrten falls nötig. Das Frühstück war der Hammer!

“Fantastisch!”
+Wij verbleven hier met onze drie kinderen. In alles hier zit liefde en aandacht. De mensen zijn zo mega aardig. Ze kochten kadootjes voor de kinderen , maakten heerlijk en uitgebreid ontbijt en speciaal glutenvrij ontbijt voor mijn dochter. Ze bieden een eigen tuktuk driver aan, voor heel lage prijs. Regelden alles voor ons! Echt een dikke 10 voor deze lieve mensen. En dit alles onder het genot van een prachtige accommodatie met heerlijk uitzicht
