Best breakfast

Buddhi and his mother were kind and helpful hosts. I loved the view and the sounds of the birds, animals, insects and even the rain! Breakfast was generous and authentic. Just take a look at the guest book - you'll see how many guests have stayed there and left with a smile. My room was spacious and I felt overall, it was good value for money. Many thanks for a pleasant stay!

Buddhi made contact with us early on and made us feel very welcome. He's easily contactable by phone, email and text. The place is lovely - make sure you ask to eat there, his mum makes the best food! The room we were in was spacious and comfortable, the balcony has an amazing view of the twin peaks and waterfall. Super value!

We had a wonderful stay with Buddhi and his family. We arrived from Kandy and Buddhi was there to meet us and show us round. Our room had a balcony with the most amazing view down Ella Gap and to the right waterfalls. Buddhi gave us lots of good advice about where to walk and when we came back in the late afternoon a tray of tea would appear for us. We ate every night with Buddhi as his mum is a great cook and we ate things we have never had before, like banana flowers and bread fruit curry. The accommodation was very clean and nothing was too much trouble, for example Buddhi arranged our onward travel for us. This is a great place to stay with a truly hospitable family. Thank you, Buddhi, we hope to come back sometime.

We had a great time at Buddhikas wunderful place! Everything was just perfect ... sunrise and panoramo view from our room, amazing singhal. beeakfast ... - he is a lovely host and we will come back for sure. Thanks a lot to you, Bud!

Such a lovely surprise after 7 hours travelling. Buddhi and his mum were the perfect hosts. Room had the most amazing views and home made food was exceptional. So far the best food yet in Sri Lanka. Just a shame I couldn't have stayed longer. Would recommend to anyone wanting to expire ella and the surrounds. Thank you :)

Got picked up with a warm welcome from the train- which was delayed by an hour! Was not a problem for Bhuddi he made us tea when we got in and gave some great advice on what to do and where to eat. The view from the bedroom and balcony was INCREDIBLE, followed by a delicious Sri Lankan breakfast of 'spring hoppers' and fruit. Prepared by his mum who was a fantastic cook. We had to delay our trip by 1 night at late notice which was no problem for Bhuddi though he could not get us in the second night he arranged a great place for us to stay up the road. All in all a warm, accommodating and very helpful guy with a guest house with a spectacular view.

After arriving later than planned due to a delayed train, it was fantastic to be warmly received by Buddhi and be presented with a homemade meal by his extremely kind Mum. The room is exactly as described, simple but very clean. Very easy to get around Ella for walks etc but equally as nice to sit and admire the fantastic view. We enjoyed chatting to Buddhi in the evenings and wish him luck with his new ventures!

Great host and view from the room. 临走前被房东坑了一笔车费,其他真的特别好。就是提前跟他讲好车费就行

Ruwan et Madu sont un couple charmant. Ils ont le plus de sourires réconfortants que nous avons vu non seulement au Sri Lanka mais en général! Ils vont vraiment miles supplémentaires pour vous faire sentir à l'aise, pour ne pas mentionner la cuisine incroyable, les thés du matin et le petit la mi-journée du désert qui sont servis quand vous le plus besoin. Ils nous ont même invités à la maison de leurs parents (encore) un autre dîner mémorable. Ils peuvent être la raison pour Ella. Nous avons été tellement touchés par leur hospitalité nous avons pleuré en disant au revoir .. :( Til la prochaine fois!

Apart from the amazing view and the excellent food Ruwan is a genuine wonderful person and very hospitable. The beds are so comfortable, the bathrooms are super clean, use mosquito nets - it is pretty much in the jungle. It's a hard place to leave! Ruwan is so happy to help with everything and his dinners are easily the best we've eaten in Ella and quite possibly the country.

Ruwan and his wife were fantastic hosts! He kindly met us at the station after we got the train from Nuwaya Eliya - a highlight of our trip. The room itself was very simple but clean and great for 2 nights. It had great views over the mountains from the balcony and the dinners/breakfasts we had with them were amazing

Good view from the house,the breakfast tastes great,Ruwan is helpful and kind,great experience!

Where do I start? Here goes.. Great! ! What lovely hosts. Ruwan and his wife made us feel so welcome. We arrived during a downpour, and Ruwan met us at the corner with a tuk tuk and umbrella for the steep descent to Village View. Eventually the rain eased and the view from our balcony left us in awe. Ruwan showed us the short cut into town (5 mins along railway track) snd we walked in with another couple for dinner at a nice restaurant, then home by torch light. The next evening, Ruwan's wife presented us with one of the best traditional meals we have had in Sri Lanka. 8 or 9 different dishes, all lovingly prepared, for just 500rs each. Yum! Ella is quite a cosmopolitan town in some respects, but the traditional hospitality shown to us at Village View was really genuine. Thanks Ruwan, and congratulations on creating sich a lovely business. D and T.

Ruwanの場所は素晴らしい、とても静かできれいです。バルコニーからの眺めは素晴らしいです、そしてバルコニーで朝食を持つことは、毎日の特別なスタートを与えました。彼は私たちのために短いレッスンを整理し、彼は9種類のカレーを作っ時間未満では、素晴らしい料理です!彼の方法は非常にシンプルであり、我々はすべてのスリランカで最高の食事のいずれかを持っていました。 我々は非常に歓迎し、彼は私たちが悲しげに残していたとき、私たちが転送を整理する助けと感じました。 強くお勧めします!

L'endroit a une belle vue et est proche de la ville. Ruwan était sympathique et serviable. Le petit déjeuner était super.

We could not stay in a tree huts, because of the dry season, but anyway the stay at Rukmals friend was wonderful. The place were located near the lake and is surrounded by nature gardens with vegetables and papaya trees. The food cooked by host was wonderful, especially you can see that all of the vegetables were homegrown - simply delicious! I allso got a chance to meet Rukmal and substitute host and I must say that they are wonderful! Definitely recommend!

Waar beginnen we ?! Het beste voedsel dat we in Sri Lanka hebben gehad, de beste nachtrust, en Rukmal en zijn vrienden waren fantastisch gastheren! Hij organiseerde vele reizen voor ons, waaronder een safari en andere steden in de buurt. Rukmal heeft grote kennis over de natuur en de geschiedenis, ook perfect Engels! We hadden zo veel plezier, we zullen zeker weer terug komen. Da en Ally x

Fue increíble para alojarse en rukmal lugar. Él estaba muy bien cuidado acerca de nuestro sentimiento y teníamos un montón de diversión. El lugar es básico, pero los arounds rukmal son increíbles y hacen magia con todas las historias que conoce. Él le dejará en los mejores lugares para ver! Muchas gracias! Fue realmente genial! Rukmal es muy cuidado, mucho se compartieron y se rió! El lugar es bastante básico, pero la necesidad está ahí y los alrededores son preciosos. Rukmal los hace aún más mágico que le llevará a los mejores lugares y sabe un montón de cosas sobre la historia, la fauna, la flora ... Usted toma los ojos y los oídos llenos!

What a fantastic place rural has got here. It was one of the highlights of our 2 week stay in Sri Lanka. It wasn't only the setting and the amazing Tree House itself but also rukmal himself. Rukmal also helped us with trips to nearby sites and gave us some great advice

es war sehr schön! äußerst empfehlenswert

I enjoyed my stay here. Rukmal was a great host and helped facilitate activities in and around Habarana as well as made planning recommendations for the rest of my trip. The tree house was great and the home-cooked dinner and breakfast were the two best meals I ate in Sri Lanka! Drove me to the bus stop and made sure I got on the correct bus in the morning.

Because of the dry season, Rukmal offered us a lake house instead of tree huts. The place was nice and beautiful. We were woken up by the sounds of peacocks everyday. Rukmal picked up us at Anuradhapura and took us to Sigiriya and Polonnaruwa by his tuk-tuk. The price of the transport was reasonable. Rukmal had a great sense of humor and easygoing, so we had a great time with him (He was also great in speaking English). He knew a lot about wildlife and introduced the animals and plants to us. When we had no ideas how to spend our time, he arranged for us and it was wonderful.

Stor erfarenhet att leva i treehouse, kan du höra ljudet av vilda varelse när du sover, helt slappna av. Rukmal är en trevlig kille. Han är snäll och humor.

It was so amazing. Beautiful scenery, delicous food and a very comfortable room. Ajm Nimal really deservs it to be a superhost. He and his familiy are trying almost everthing to make you happy or help you solving problems. I really recommend it!!!

We had a lovely time and really made ourselves at home for 8 days. Nimal and his niece are so generous and accommodating in everything they do. Nimal is incredibly generous with information and advising everything They laid on lavish local breakfasts everyday which normally filled us up until dinner and they were always there offering as much tea as you can drink. They are also very attentive to making sure the bathrooms are cleaned regularly and sheets are changed regularly. If there is ever anything you need all you need to do is ask and they will to whatever they can to accommodate it. The actual room is simple but nice and clean and the bathroom was spacious and everything works well. The view from the accommodation is stunning and it's very well positioned for a walk into town which only takes a few minutes if you walk along the railway line which we did a couple of times a day. It's also in a good position to begin a hike to Ella Rock.

Nimal's place is amazing! Excellent location, with the most amazing view! I could just drink tea all day long on the terrace and enjoy the view. Nimal is a fantastic host and I highly recommend his place!

There are few better places to wake up then to the view accompanied by Nimals' breakfast spread. As it's been described in other reviews the room was exactly as portrayed and Nimal and his family were incredibly giving and generous hosts. Nimal also very kindly helped us organise a driver to the beaches - coordinating everything which just made our trip seamless! There's not many hosts I would recommend more. Thanks for having us!

We really enjoyed our stay at Chamodya Homestay. Nimal greeted us at the train station along with a tuk tuk driver and then accompanied us to the Homestay. Both Nimal and the rest of his family were very friendly and courteous and they were happy to assist us with all of our questions. Nimal was also able to assist us with negotiating/arranging a car and driver for our trip to the south the next day at a very reasonable price. The Homestay has great views and is well located as it sits just below the train track which forms part of the walk to Ella's Rock. Dinner was delicious too.

Room was basic but perfectly adequate (although the tap wasn't working). The best bit about the apartment is the view which was amazing - great with the home cooked breakfast. We also ate an evening meal at the homestay which was good, although not as good value as a place in town and we did learn that the couple next to us had been asked to pay 1000 rupees less for the same thing.... Otherwise everyone very friendly and accommodating.

Chamodya was a beautiful place stay - it is perfectly located with outstanding views of Ella Rock and mountains beyond and only a ten minute walk away from the hustle and bustle of the centre of Ella. Nimal was so friendly and helpful, he helped us organise our day trips and even waited to pick us up when our train was delayed for over an hour. He also arranged for us to get some laundry done which was handy two weeks in! The breakfast was also delicious and varied each day. The wifi was the best we had during our three week stay in Sri Lanka. Thank you Nimal, you made us feel so welcome :) we will be recommending to all of our friends and family!

Unfortunately we could only stay for two nights.. The room was very comfortable and had everything you need. The rice and curry's at night and breakfasts in the morning were delightful! But the best thing of all was of course the magnificent view of Ella Rock, Ella Gap and Little Adams Peak. This is quite possibly an accommodation that gives you the best view of the nature surrounding Ella. Furthermore it's about a 10 min. walk into town where you'll find all kinds of restaurants and shops. The staff was very kind and helpful. Nimal was friendly enough to guide us up to Ella Rock and show us a bit of Ella's nature.

Hermes's place is great.The villa,the beach the location all fantastic.Another bonus was the beautiful food cooked by Amal and his helper.Nice little beach bar 2 minute walk away was good fun.Our family had a great holiday.

Мы абсолютно любили наши три ночи пребывания на вилле: это было тихое и именно то, что нам нужно. Собственности огромны, в хорошем состоянии, и зрелищная. Вид почти-пустынный пляж и море было захватывающим. Мы были невероятно счастливы здесь. Амаль был также фантастический управдом, гид и повар, мы будем скучать по нему очень. Гермес был невероятно легко общаться. Мы рекомендовали бы этот маленький кусочек неба никому.

The place is wonderful, a beachfront villa and a beautiful deserted beach. The comfortable beds fitted with mosquito nets. The large bathrooms (one drawback, the lack of hot water, although the water temperature was not cold anyway). But the point is Amal, the person who takes care of the house and, if desired, to eat. Amal is decent, but sociable and for us it was a pleasant company for the three days that we decided to go to Nilaveli.

Villa y la playa son absolutamente increíble. Es el lugar perfecto para relajarse y disfrutar de las vacaciones. Las habitaciones son enormes, las camas son muy cómodas y toda la villa es muy limpio y moderno. Pero lo mejor de este lugar es Amal, que se ocupa de los huéspedes. Él es una persona increíblemente agradable y de confianza que hace que la mejor comida de Sri Lanka nunca. Estábamos muy contentos de estar en la villa durante 2 días y nos lo recomiendo!

Villa Nilaveli ist ein sehr charmanter Ort, direkt am Strand, groß, sauber platziert, mit all den Komfort, den man sich wünschen kann. Der Balkon im ersten Stock, mit bequemen Betten und Stühle von wich Sie sehen und das Rauschen der Wellen hören kann, ausgestattet ist sehr angenehm und entspannend. Aber was macht den Ort noch spezieller ist die ständige, aber fast invisibile Anwesenheit von Amal, die eine fürsorgliche und Edel Gastgeber ist. Er kann für Sie kochen, organisieren Touren, Vorschläge machen über Orte, um zu sehen. Wir haben jeden Moment unseres Aufenthaltes genossen und wir heißen Sie herzlich diesen Ort reccomand.

really wonderful. I will be here next time.

Nous avons passé 4 jours dans la Villa Nilaveli, une immense maison très agréable qui ouvre sur un grand jardin et sur une plage déserte. Amal notre hôte, a été super, très discret mais toujours prêt à aider pour des conseils ou des sorties. il parle parfaitement anglais. il a été plein de bonnes intentions (pour les enfants il fabriqués deux cerfs volant avec du papier journal et des tiges de palmier), les chambres sont très agréables, la cuisine aussi, la maison étant isolé, il vaut mieux prévoir des aller retour en tuk tuk pour trincomalee (15km) où on trouve de tout. sur la route plus proche, on peut trouver des denrées de base. quelques restos autour mais que nous n'avons pas testé. Hermès le propriétaire qui vit en Australie a été très sympas dans nos échanges précédent la location. on a eu vraiment du mal à partir et on y retournerai les yeux fermés, encore merci Amal pour avoir contribuer à faire de ce séjour un des meilleurs moment de notre voyage.

Esta es la bonita casa llena que sueño !!! Todos horas felices y la memoria! Gracias por receiption amablemente de Amal y deliciosa barbacoa. Voy a extrañar aquí y esperamos volver aquí la próxima vez.

Wow wow wow!! Best place to stay in Sri Lanka. Vejay is the perfect host. I almost feel like not sharing this with others and keeping it a secret.

Our stay in Banyan Camp was amzing. The house is fantastic, the surroundings are beautiful, the food is good, the staff is extremely nice, the dinner is among my best souvenirs in Sri Lanka... I could write more but I believe the best is recommanding to everyone to go to the camp and experience a journey there... Moreover Kathreen is very keen and available. She always answered me in a very short notice and did everything to make our stay unforgettable. She organised transportation to the camp, a safari and our trip to the South. I felt spoiled! Thank you so much.

We're searching for unique silence places in nature - and we have found a paradise! We enjoyed to stay for three nights and it will be a lasting memory. Every adventure includes a suprise. The staff did everything imangenable to make our honeymoon unforgettable. We absolutely recomment this place and would come back!

The experience was really amazing for us. In night, the stars r beautiful, and food r delicious. Staff there r really nice. Hope to come there again and stay more nights with friends!

반얀 캠프는 확실히 가장 마법의 장소입니다, 내 딸 샬럿과 나는 머물렀다. 모든 것이 완벽했다. 우리는 아직 우승하지 않은 매우 비오는 밤에 도착한다. 그런 다음 Souhaine Vijee 우리는 신속하게 우리가받은 호우를 잊지 만들어주는 따뜻한 환영했다. 나는 장소의 마법이 아침에 나타날 거라고 생각하기 때문에 우리는 일찍 잤다. 그리고, 아침에 무엇을 궁금해! 이 호수는, 우리의 손님의 조언에 ... 환각을 노래하는 아름다운, 새, 우리는 오후에 보트 사파리 자이며 우리는 대접 할 수있다. 심지어 잠시 주저하지 말고, 어서. 나는 스리랑카 20 년 동안 여행하고 아마 내가 알고있는 가장 매혹적인 곳 ... 재미있는 시간을 가지세요!

During our travel through Sri Lanka our stay at Souhaine and Vijay was really one of the highlights! They welcomed us warmly and we felt like home. The treehouse is beautiful and absolutely worth a visit!! Very special was of course the lovely dinner we were able to experience - unforgettable :) amazing food, lovely people and a stunning accommodation - we will definitely come back if we have the chance to visit Sri Lanka again!! Thanks a lot for being such great hosts! :)

What a beautiful peaceful place. The accommodation is very comfortable, food is delicious and the hosts are kind and interesting people. Highly recommend. This was one of my highlights of my trip and I would love to return one day.

So überrascht und erfreut unseren gesamten Aufenthalt. Perfektion. 5 Sternen

Lovely apartment. Very clean, comfy bed, and incredible hosts. Grace is an amazing cook and I highly recommend having dinner during your stay.

This is a cosy, beautiful place, with very warm people. There was an illness in the family while we were there as guests which made our visit a little less ideal - the family made back-up arrangements, but we weren't able to easily arrange meals or transport. However, they were very kind and apologetic. We would recommend the place, but please note that the stairs are a bit steep and the bathroom is downstairs from the sleeping area, so it may not be good for an older person or young children who would need to use the toilet during the night. Additionally, the sound-proofing from the family's space downstairs isn't great (though they were quiet after we went to bed!). Otherwise, it is as advertised and a nice place for a relaxing stay. Grace is a phenomenal cook - you will love her food!

Lal's place is awesome. Stylish house with very comfortable room, great fundamental equipments, and beautiful furniture. Romeni was taking very good care of us and help me plan lovely train trip to Ella. I would like to stay in their place for a week even doing nothing. Strongly recommended!

很有爱的民宿,lal一家服务真的很好,满屋的粉色,红茶好喝,Grace的菜真的做的超级好吃,不管早餐还是晚餐都超级丰盛,一家人超级nice,在小屋住了两天,是在兰卡最美丽的一段回忆。都舍不得离开。还给我们当地买茶叶的商店地址,买了物美价廉的茶叶回国。如果能再去,一定会再住lal家。

Sincere Wilderness was perfect. We were met with hugs from Grace and Romena who had prepared a pot of tea, sandwiches and ginger biscuits for our arrival. The two-storey cottage has its own entrance and is attached to the family home. It is cosy, quirkily decorated in bright colours and elephant print curtains and is a short stroll down the hill to the town centre. We were well cared for, Grace's cooking is spectacular and Romena was really helpful with local knowledge. A hot water bottle on a chilly night was also very welcome and thoughtful! Lal organised our transfer from the train station and also a car and driver for our onward journey to Ude Walawe. Highly recommend Sincere Wilderness.

房东一家三口,女儿英文不错也很好沟通,但对妈妈的印象超级好,人非常和蔼可亲,在异国他乡妈妈身上的温暖非常打动人,在斯里兰卡十一天,一路吃下来,妈妈做的饭还是最棒的,特别是准备的早餐,我大爱啊。但是要去茶园的朋友,茶园并没有游记写的那么好,特别是茶园的蛋糕,只有茶的种类,如果大家有时间去科伦坡的茶叶总局,那里会更多哦。

住的是一栋复式的房子,跟房东她们隔着一扇门,房间超级无敌好,很温馨,提供的晚餐和早餐都超好吃,太喜欢她们这里了,就是有点冷,她们会很贴心的提供热水袋

If you want to experience a bit of genuine Sri Lanka, then this is the place for you. Lal, grace and Romeni are beautiful people - we were made to feel welcome immediately and really enjoyed our stay in their family home. We learnt to cook and went for a walk in the jungle/amongst the tea plantations. Nothing was too much bother and we ate some of the best food in Sri Lanka. Thank you friends xxx

Merveilleux séjour à Trincomalee, la maison est superbe, la plage de Dutch bay est parfaite pour se baigner et pour rencontrer les pêcheurs locaux. Super hôtes, très discrets et serviables et Grace, la personne en charge de l'entretien de la maison et du petit déjeuner (délicieux) est vraiment adorable. Nous étions vraiment triste de quitter ce paradis ! C'était l'un des meilleurs moment de notre séjour au sri lanka.

The whole experience for us was amazing!! The weather was perfect, the sea was shades of emerald and turquoise and the villa had really cool hangout areas - including the kitchen , out back , the super cool entertainment room, the pool . Kian and Janah have tastefully done up the interiors and were wonderful as hosts! Helped us setup our snorkeling and dolphin watching trips . Even as a parting note, K&J recommended a really nice pub in Kandy (which we did go to guys and loved it!!). Special note for Grace - who helped us with dishes (when we were tardy with our own work) and put great food on our tables.

We would definitely recommend and we would definitely return! If you like being literally on the beach and have an appreciation of interiors, this is the place for you! The house is perfectly set up for up to 6 people and you open the gate onto the beach. The style and design clearly shows a lot of thought has gone into making guests comfortable as possible and everything from the plunge pool to the cinema room, amazing book collection to the boxes full of beach toys, means there is something for all ages. We loved it and had a great experience with Kian and Janah throughout; they were very patient with our endless questions and planning!

100% recomendable, el chalet de Kian y Janah es el equivalente a un hotel de 5 estrellas al borde de una playa paradisiaca. Todo está pensado para que sea perfecto, desde duchas ultra modernas, a la decoración, la piscina del jardín y las camas. El jardín de la casa tiene una puerta que da directamente a la arena de la playa. Kian y Janah se ocuparon de que no nos faltara de nada y de que nos sintieramos como en casa. Gracias

Wir haben es sehr genossen unseren Aufenthalt dort. Das Haus ist sauber und hat alle conforts Sie benötigen. Es befindet sich am Strand in einer erstaunlichen Situation befindet. Kian und Janah sind so freundlich und nachdenklich. Wir hatten eine tolle Zeit dort und hoffen, dass sie wieder zu besuchen!

riktigt bra För nu (är semester inte komplett) bäst, alla viktiga för en dröm semester objekt väntar dig. 1) Huset fullt utrustade, välutrustade, sängkläder, även en hemmabio (även om vi inte kom till Sri Lanka för det) över toppen, bättre än bilderna 2) Plats: direkt på stranden i holländska Bay, utmärkt i mitten av några turister, fiskare, lokala, ingenting att göra med de hotell där en är begränsad mellan turister, närliggande butiker och små restauranger en 5 minuters kyla tuk tuk om behöver centrum. 3) Ägare: förtjusande, diskreta, alltid tillgänglig 24/24, full av goda råd människor till landets image godhet, mildhet och vänlighet, ett särskilt omnämnande för Grace som förbereder dig för att sublimera PTI lunch och även som har alla kvaliteter av ägarna kort går det med tillförsikt

Prachtige villa aan het strand, precies zoals beschreven en trouw aan de foto's. We hadden een geweldig verblijf, het huis was schoon en mooi kunst decoratie, veel aandacht voor detail. De gastheer was erg vriendelijk en meegaand. Gaf ons veel tips over lokale voorzieningen. Villa heeft een prachtig uitzicht over de zee en de prachtige zonsopgang in de ochtend, waren we in staat om de vissers te kijken op het strand. Activiteiten op het water beschikbaar 200m van het huis-jetskiën en kajakken. Over het algemeen uitstekend verblijf, zou willen dat we langer hadden kunnen blijven, zou het aanbevelen.

AH. МАЙ. ZING !!! Любил все. Великолепный пляж на заднем пороге. Задумчиво оборудованный дом. Абсолютно блестящий житель повар (спасибо так много Грейс!). Мы не можем рекомендовать место Киан & джанах достаточно для морского отдыха. Спасибо, парни.

The Morning Light is situated in the jungle just 15 walking minutes away from the center of Ella. It is an absolutely lovely and quiet place and completely surrounded by nature. The host picked us up from Ella train station and also gave us several rides during our stay. The room and the bathroom are very clean and the double bed was comfortable. The view from the attached balcony is incredible and you can see the tea plantations, a waterfall, little Adam's Peak and Ella Rock. We have been served a traditional Sri Lankan breakfast with a broad selection of different typical dishes and fresh fruits. For dinner the hosts cooked us an absolutely delicious chicken curry. The host are extremely kind, helpful and caring. We had a wonderful time at Morning Light and can highly recommend it.

What an amazing family. The house is a bit of a walk from downtown but nonetheless a beautiful walk. You really feel The jungle Village life but in a luxurious way because of the room. The room is very clean and comfortable with a great view. The host drive us free of charge to downtown and picked us up from the train station. I love it there and recommend it to anyone.

Wir hatten 2 wundervolle Nächte an diesem traumhaften Ort! Das Zimmer ist sauber, hell und neu wobei der kleine Balkon besonders schön ist. Die Familie war sehr nett, das Essen wunderbar und wir haben die Zurückgezogenheit und leichte Abgeschiedenheit sehr genossen! Besonderes Highlight : beim leckeren Frühstück den Affen beim Spielen zu sehen. Sehr empfehlenswert!!!

We stayed 3 nights and had a great time! The room is basic but clean and has a great view and a really nice balcony. The family is really nice and welcoming and the food just amazing!!! They always surprised us with some tea, crackers or fruits. we had breakfast at their place every morning which was the best we had in Sri Lanka in 4 weeks! One night we also had dinner at their place which was also one of the best curries we have eaten!! The place is a little away from the center but the walk was beautiful and they also offered us to drive us at nights or from/ to the train station.

My boyfriend and I spent two wonderful nights in this room. The room is very clean and has everything you need. It's amazing to sit on the balcony to drink some the - the view to Ella rock is amazing. Mr and mrs Sanjeewa are friendly and warm people and will do their best to make the stay as good as possible. We can only recommend this place!

We had 1 night here and the room was spacious and clean. The shower was amazing & hot. Breakfast was very tasty. Access to the house is difficult if you are elderly or not agile the jungle path might be a bit tricky, but if you are in good condition it would not be a problem. Our host and his wife were very friendly. And he helped us get to the train station in his Tuk Tuk. The house is a 10min walk on a quiet road to the centre of town. The view in the morning of the sun rises is fabulous! We would stay here again and we would recommend it to others.

The place is really wonderful! is a magic experience to be inside the jungle, near the river fall, with that beautiful view and in a nice room.. The hosts also are kind and helpful!

Brand new room with a great view (you can see the waterfalls from the bed) and amazing hosts! Ella is a great place to stay for a couple of days. In the evenings we didn't have to leave home because the hosts were cooking up some delicious local meals for us. Highly recommended place!

We had the nicest stay. The room and the view was outstanding Breakfast was soooo tasty Wish we had time to stay a second night as the place was fabulous and super central Buddhist is a gentleman and will answer all your questions and his mom is a great cook Thanks

Thank you Buddhika for being an excellent host :) Buddhika was very responsive to my messages and helped me plan my time in Ella, he also arranged a very good taxi driver to take me back to Colombo. The meals provided were excellent and views from the dining room and bedroom balconies are amazing. Also , the shower has hot water :) which I didn't get the last place I stayed ! Really enjoyed Ella and staying at Buddhika's and left feeling totally chilled.

Lovely lovely stay! Buddha and his family are so accommodating and couldn't do enough for us! From directions to offering a lift to a rock temple when our tuktuk didn't show up! The view is framed perfectly by the communal balcony where he served amazing breakfast! Worth every penny!! Thanks Buddhi and fam

Buddhika is a wonderful and generous host. And this place will always be very special to me as my father grew up in this area. Buddhika helped me connect with my roots, in a very big way and I am extremely and profusely thankful to him for this. And he did it all with a smile and made it seem just as easy. Buddhika, you have a lovely place and the food your mother cooked was simply delicious. This is the only place in SL where we were not charged for drinking water and were able to have access to water bottles as well. THANK YOU so much Buddhika for everything!

Klein aber fein. Buddhi ist super nett und höflich. Das Zimmer ist sehr schön, der Ausblick ist auch von Zimmer 2 aus einfach Atemberaubend. Wenn ihr da seid unbedingt auf Ella Rock hoch wandern!

Great value accommodation in Ella - what an amazing view to wake up to! Buddhika and his mum made us feel very welcome. The breakfast was one of the best of our trip.

Room is exactly as advertised - amazing views and breakfast. Guest house is a short walk along the tracks from Ella station (no need to go into town and out again). Buddhi was really welcoming and helpful - arranging a taxi last minute for us to get to Colombo.

What a wonderful guesthouse. The views from the place are spectacular and the room was incredibly homely. Throughout our stay, Buddhi went out of his way to make us feel at home, bringing us tea and answering all our questions about Ella. We were also treated to a fantastic Sri Lankan breakfast which had the best egg hoppers we tasted during our entire trip. Overall I would highly recommend Ella Mount View Guest Inn to anyone looking for a base close to all of what Ella has to offer.

主机是非常好的,乐于助人,住宿是用大量的沉默湖一个美丽的地方。房子很干净,大。我真的很满意我在Sobitha经验。

Very welcoming and helpful staff I would recommend staying here due to the nice location and that you get free bike rental! The food was great as well. We had a bbq and broadest the next morning which was reasonably priced. Would certainly stay again on my return.

Great location and Gemanu was very warm and welcoming. We had an amazing time here. Gemanu cooked us amazing meals exactly as per our requests. Would definitely recommend this place. While here we climbed the Adams peak to watch the sunrise. This was the hardest trek we have done so far and we have done quite a few.

Lovely place. Very quiet, clean, comfy beds, great view of the lake. It made a great place to pause and relax during our tour of Sri Lanka. Do keep in mind that it is significantly out of the main town - it was a 40+ minute walk or else a brief tuktuk ride to restaurants, the park, etc. or you can rent the bikes. If you're looking for a lovely place to relax a bit and don't mind the location, this is a wonderful place to stay.

La maison est idéale pour les familles car il n'y a qu'un seul gestionnaire de toilettes publiques est très enthousiaste pour nous aider à préparer un barbecue très reconnaissants, oh

这房子是非常干净的,与格雷戈里湖面孔,认为是伟大的!我们看到惊人的太阳在房子的前面!房子的经理是非常好的,准备美味的当地晚餐和早餐对我们!

great villa and very friendly owner. the house is very clean, the beds are super confy and the lake views are fantastic. kitchen has all the facilities you may need. the host was very useful with anything we needed and always with a very big beautiful smile. Newara is quite a busy loud town si this villa is great for those seeking a quiet peacfu stay.

We had a wonderful stay at Lake Garden Villas. It has lovely decor and a very clean and modern bathroom. The beds were very comfortable! The house keeper and the chef were so helpful and warm, nothing is too much of an ask! I also loved the fact we had the entire villa to ourselves including a living/lounge room which was a nice bonus. Oh and the lakeside view is amazing! Overall, it exceeded all our expectations and I would recommend it to anyone who is going to Nuwara Eliya.

I would firstly like to say that Nishan is very helpful in anything you need, but I was disappointed in the resort which I didn't want to be.. The location is stunning and the rooms are beautiful but sadly this is what you are paying for. The service was mediocre at best and for the price you pay it's simply not good enough.. We had to send back room service as the food was stone cold and the staff members didn't seem sorry at all, we got the meal for free in the end after 4 calls to reception in order to speak to the manager. I wouldn't recommend this place as I feel for the price it's way steep and I'm sure you can find somewhere else better. I would suggest going for lunch or dinner if you want to see the views. this hotel stay was a present to me and my girlfriend which made it all that more fraustrating..

Endroit totalement superbe avec une vue imprenable sur les montagnes. Très privé avec possibilité du déjeuner sur le balcon de la chambre avec la vue superbe. Personnel poli mais accueil peu chaleureuse et avare de sourire. Seul B&B a Ella ne fournissant pas d'accommodations pour les chauffeurs. Très surprenant et décevant considérant le prix. Les soins au spa sont beaucoup trop chers surtout lorsqu'ils sont offerts moins de la moitié du prix en ville. Le séjour vaut vraiment la peine pour la vue totalement incroyable avec un très bon petit déjeuner.

Lieux magique! Emplacement superbe au milieu des plantations de thé. Quel rêve de se réveiller face au little pic Adam, et d'avoir un superbe petit déjeuner depuis sa terrasse. Un énorme coup de cœur!

This is a brilliant place to stay, the best in our whole trip to Sri Lanka. The room was clean and comfortable and the view of Ella Gap breathtaking. Nishan is very easy to deal with - responsive and helpful.

The room was not available on the resort website but Nishan delivered the room for 2 nights as promised!

Nishan was able to organise for us to stay at the amazing 98 acres resort when it previously appeared to be fully booked. We had a fantastic stay and Nishan was helpful whenever we needed additional information or advice. Thank you!

We booked 98 acres through Nishan as the hotel itself was fully booked. We're so glad we did. Nishan was excellent from start to finish, I had quite a few questions and he always replied quickly and with very helpful suggestions. The hotel itself is just wonderful. We booked this as part of our honeymoon and it was the highlight of our trip. 98 acres is the only place to stay in Ella in my opinion! Do not hesitate to book with Nishan.

Nishan did a great job with our accommodation at 98 Acres, he went above and beyond to arrange our stay even though it was already booked out. Excellent communication and service.

房子很棒 靠近town center 有阳台 风景很好 the host is very nice and the dinner is very good. 就是阳台小虫子比较多 但是整个斯里兰卡都有很多小虫子…

We had a great stay at the Village View Home Stay with Ruwan! He cooked us a delicious dinner on our first night and a very tasteful and sumptuous breakfast every morning. The view of Ella's Rock and Adam's Peak from the balcony is just amazing. Ruwan has been very kind and helpful in organizing everything and we can definitely recommend a stay at his place! Thanks again.

Ruwan's place was very walkable to town, quiet, beautiful views, and Ruwan's food was amazing!

We had such a lovely stay in Ella at Ruwan and his wife's homestay accommodation. The view from the bedroom balcony was a perfect spot to sit and relax and make the most of the beautiful setting in the hills. The train line is quite close by, but this shouldn't put anyone off as there are so few trains a day (and none at night) and we enjoyed watching the trains pass by. The food we had here was some of the best we tried in Sri Lanka - I loved the breakfast selection and it was a great experience to have dinner at the house, trying so many different Sri Lankan dishes in one meal! Thank you Ruwan for a lovely stay.

If you go in Ella this is the place, Beautiful point of view and not expensive for the dinner. And i don t talk about the breakfast who is awsome. But the best are Ruwan and his wife Madu , they are so friendly, so obliging, give us many information. We are so lucky to meet them . Thanks again Bohoma istouti

Great experience. Ruwan really is an excellent host - he waited patiently at the train station for me (my train was 4 hours late) and cooked me an amazing meal on arrival !! The room was clean and with an excellent view as well and very well located close to town... This is a great place to stay in Ella !!

Ruwan is a good cook. Very helpful. Steep steps down from the road, and the walk into town was not level. But we enjoyed walking the rail track. It was nice to overlook the railway line.

I cannot recommend Ruwan's homestay enough! From the very beginning Ruwan and his wife went above and beyond. Collecting us from the train station when we arrived, giving us the most delicious welcoming drinks and afternoon tea and sweet homemade treats, personally taking time out to show us the route into town (really as short and convenient as can be!), to just always being incredibly helpful, welcoming and polite. The room itself is clean, has everything you need but the real charm comes from the balcony which has breathtaking views of Ella rock, waterfall and Little Adam's Peak (all easily walkable to from the homestay!). We loved being able to watch people walk by on the rail tracks and the trains aren't frequent enough to cause any disturbance. We stayed in a 5 star resort whilst on our trip but I think we agree that this was our favourite accommodation of the trip! Ella and Ruwan's homestay were definitely the highlight and our only regret is that we weren't there long enough to have a home cooked meal, as the provided breakfast would suggest it would be amazing. Oh and we also had an early 6 hour bus to catch from Ella when we left and they kindly went out early that morning and provided us with not only a packed breakfast and drinks but also a packed lunch for the journey and accompanied us to the bus stop to ensure we got the right one! Safe to say we loved our stay!

We were very pleased with our stay here. Mohan was super welcoming and helpful and it was by far the nicest place we stayed in Sri Lanka. The room is really clean and comfortable. Location is perfect, you can enjoy seeing the hustle and bustle of Trinco and still be in close proximity to the beautiful beaches up the coast. We definitely recommend going to the market with Mohan and grabbing fresh vegetables and fish to have for lunch. Breakfast was always wonderful. Great place.

Out of all our travels around Sri Lanka we can defiantly say this was our best value for money we found. Our room was fantastic! Stunning bathroom. Bedroom was equipped with brilliant AC and mosquito net over bed and bottled water on arrival. Exactly how it looks in the pictures! Mohan is fantastic guy and host. He helped us with all our questions about Trinco and recommended great places to eat and the best beaches to visit. Mohan was extremely flexible on arrival time and breakfast which really helped when we decided to go Whale watching at 5am (we saw 20 Whales btw!!). We had a traditional Sri Lanka breakfast with tea/coffee which was brilliant as we really wanted to take in as much Sri Lankan culture as possible and discover anything new on offer. I would defiantly stay here again with out a doubt and am recommending it highly to my friends. Thanks Mo for a memorable stay! Kelly and James :)

excellent place to stay in trinco. near the bus station and city centre. please book in advance as only one room present at the moment.

My husband and I stayed 3 nights at Mohan's place and it was brilliant!His house is beautifully set up, lovingly designed with a long spacious open plan kitchen,dining area and sitting (URL HIDDEN) had our breakfasts and dinners in this lovely dining area with tasteful background music.Mohan was the most hospitable and charming host, very attentive and going out of his way to ensure we had a pleasant stay.he was very informative about Trincomalee and the beautiful beaches of Nilaveli and Uppuveali which enabled us to have a good time.He also arranged a local tuk tuk known to him to ferry us around;also advising us on the fares.Mohan was also helpful with our onward travel arrangements and even helped book our next Air B n B accommodations.Coming back to accommodations, our room at Mohan's was large and spacious,tastefully furnished,with a large comfortable bed and the thickest mattress you've ever seen.There was a large ensuite washroom with a great power shower.Comfort and taste is the name of the place.Now we mustn't forget Pals Swami, the cook who prepared the most delicious Sri Lankan food we've ever had! And he was always happy to serve us tea when requested.Mohan and Pals Swami even took us to the market one morning to get the vegetables and prawns we would like to eat that night!Breakfasts and dinners were amazing!There was always fresh juice,fruit,yoghurt and toast as well as a Sri Lankan dish for breakfast. !In the evenings we could chill out with a beer on the veranda under cooling fans.Thank you Mohan for our many chats and for making our stay a most enjoyable one.We highly recommend Mohan's place.

I stayed in 10 different places in sri lanka and definitely this was the best by far! Great host, super friendly As he guided us throughout our stay in trincomalee.

We had a wonderfull stay in Trincomalee. the Town, the beaches and Mohan as a host where all more than we could have hoped for. What better way to start you day then with a original breakfast and a proper espresso after a perfect sleep. This place rocks. Perfectly located near the beaches, the busstation and the food and fish market. We just loved it here, Mohan thnxs for everything Remy and Petra

Mohan était un hôte parfait. Hyper gentil, disponible et attentionné sans être envahissant. Il nous a conseillé un bon club de plongée et un bon resto. Les petits déjeunes étaient délicieux et variés à l'heure qui nous arrangeait. Il a été très arrangeant pour nous aider à régler des problèmes techniques de téléphone :-) La chambre était nickel. Nous le recommandons vivement.

Mohan our host was most welcoming & helpful. The central location is surprisingly ticked away in a quiet spot. The beautifully appointed room built to high quality western standards but was still full of charm. Mohan was interesting & interested. We could have asked for more!

非常漂亮的别墅,非常漂亮的沙滩,整个沙滩游人很少,没有喧哗,完全的私人浴场。海浪虽大但沙滩很缓,很刺激,非常安全,我们一行八人住了四个晚上,真是舍不得离开。

房屋坐落在海边,不太好找,但风景很好。管家比较热情,服务态度一般。房内设施齐全,如果有晾衣服的工具就更好了。

Ein wunderschöner Ort, um zu entspannen. Das Haus ist komfortabel eingerichtet ud sauber. Namal bereitete uns eines der besten Currys zu, die wir in Sri Lanka gegessen haben. Absolut empfehlenswert!!

We 6 people spent 3days and 2nights in the villa and we had a great (URL HIDDEN) first we got some problems to find this place because the location is not correct and nobody answered the phone when we (URL HIDDEN) you can see on the pictures,the house is really beautiful,clean and fully equipped and the location is perfect.The house owner dont live there and its a little difficult to contact with him,he doesnt reply messages. We all appreciate Namal who works in the Villa,he is very smart kind and helpful person.

这个villa就在沙滩边上,有一个超级大的院子,早晨在阳台上看日出真是惬意,配套完善,床也很舒适,空调也给力。 房东并不住在这里,Villa由本地的taker照看,taker很热情,但是在推销当地旅游上有点太过了。 实际上,这个villa的风景远好过图片所示。 It is worthy to try this fabulous villa when you travel in Trincomalee. The host and taker are helpful.

Замечательный дом, в тихом уединенном месте! 15 метров от дома до пляжа!!!Комфортабельное жилье, есть все необходимое для отдыха и полного релакса. Домоправитель прекрасно готовит, очень услужлив, во всем поможет.

Beautiful house in an amazing place with private beach and everything. Host was surrely the best :) Thank you for everything :)

这是一栋面朝大海,春暖花开的别墅,设备齐全,整洁干净,管家服务态度很好。唯一美中不足的就是两天一直都在下雨,阳台有些漏水,但并不影响我们愉快的气氛。如果下次再来斯里兰卡,一定还要到这里多住几天!

他家的房子超美,我们一去就被惊艳到了,一幢有历史的大宅,屋里有很多房主一家的老照片,让住在这里的人有家的感觉,完全不像酒店。楼上6个卧室,楼下客厅、餐厅和厨房,还有一个美丽的花园。老管家特别友善,服务周到贴心,为我们准备了当地风味晚餐(住宿不包括餐食,我们自己买的原料)。很遗憾我们停留的时间太短,下次有机会一定再去!

It is pretty cool! The view is awesome , the house is awesome, the hearth is wonderful. Everything is amazing in the wonderful palce. I felt like living in a house in ancient England. John is a very nice guy, he cooks delicious food and arrange everything in order.

Stonyhurst Cottage was one of the most relaxing, beautiful holiday experiences of our lives. This is the sort of heritage bungalow you can imagine Jules Verne sat and wrote his best works in. Stonyhurst is serene and beautiful in that way that only a cozy heritage home can be. Some heritage homes are intimidating, cold almost. But Stonyhurst is the sort of place that invites you to live in it, sink into it, to feel at home. It's tasteful, beautiful, warm. And the staff, led by John, is a huge part of this. John, the butler/housekeeper/hospitality ninja, cooked up storm after storm, from string-hopper and chicken curry breakfasts to beef curry dinners that made us cry with joy. We ran the fireplace on a cold night, played the Beatles in the cheerful garden, and played a ton of (not very good) table tennis in the fireplace-warmed living room. Enough gushing. If you and your loved ones want to put your feet up and navel gaze over endless cups of tea, Stonyhurst is the place for you.

Staying at Stonyhurst was like being transported into a fairytale. We had 3 wonderful nights there where we got to experience the best it has to offer, with sunny days and crisp nights. The house is immaculate and lovingly looked after by the humble and discrete John. He was very thoughtful in accommodating our requests. The gardens are exquisite and we enjoyed spending the afternoons there before retreating to the lovely lounge to sit by the fire and drink tea. A little piece of heaven in Sri Lanka, and a welcome change from other places we stayed during our time here. Many thanks.

The service of our butler John is really nice and caring; Stoneyhust is a very great place to stay, and it really makes us feel about home.

We stayed three nights at Stonyhurts and what a fantastic 3 nights. The property is just amazing, very colonial. The rooms spacious, the beds comfortable, the garden beautiful. Whilst it does get cooler in the evenings in December we all sat around a massive roaring fire in the sitting room in the evening. John the housekeeper looked after us so well from tea in bed in the morning, to a full English breakfast, to scrumptious diners in the evening. If you want to stay somewhere amazing in Nuwara Eliya then pick Stonyhurst.

Most amazing experience during my journey. We could not stop appreciating while arriving and really had a wonderful time in it. Really lucky to stay here and strongly recommend to all of you.

We stayed at Stonyhurst for 2 nights, and regretted not staying even longer! The cottage was beyond our expectations and we can't say enough about the service provided by John, the butler. The food prepared by John was also delicious! This was one of the highlights of our trip around Sri Lanka, because of the exceptional service provided, and all the minor details which they had thought of and provided. It felt like our home away from home.

Chaminda war ein sehr hilfreicher und zuvorkommender Gastgeber der sich super um uns gekümmert hat. Wir haben jeden Abend frisches gekochtes, traditionelles Essen von seiner Frau unter unserem Baumhaus bekommen. Auf jeden Fall eine sehr tolle Location, die bei einem Besuch in Sigirya unbedingt zu empfehlen ist. Wir wären gerne noch länger geblieben, aber leider war es schon ausgebucht, daher unbedingt früh reservieren.

房主一家非常热情好客,设施齐全,尽可能提供一切需要的东西,包括安排游玩。晚上还可以一起喝酒唱歌,非常好的一家人!非常推荐!

Our stay at Chamindas place will probably be one of our best and coziest stays in Sigiria. The family is really nice and Chamindas wife is a great cook! Breakfast and dinner (curry) were delicious with fresh fruit, omelet and juice. They offered a free ride to the rock. The tree house is nicely equipped and listening to the nature is very atmospheric. The bathroom is separated from the bedroom on the first floor only by the stairs (no door) but that was okay for us. Each house has a nice little terrace where you dine and have breakfast. Overall a great stay with good value for money! We enjoyed it!

Chaminda et sa famille reçoivent comme on reçoit un ami! L'endroit est unique et un peu magique, une maison dans les arbres juste au bord de l'eau. Nous avons dîné là les deux soirs à la maison d'hôte tellement le Rice and curry était bon! Dîner juste au pied de la cabane! Chaminda nous a donné de super conseils pour facilité notre séjour et nous a recommandé des visites et pris un rdv pour un massage ayurvédique génial à un prix canon! Bref difficile de faire mieux! On vous conseille vivement!!!! Un dernier conseil, ne prenez aucun autre tuk tuk que celui de chaminda lors de votre séjour! Contacter le à votre arrivée! Bohoma istouti chaminda et à toute ta famille!

去的时候前一天刚下过雨,所以晚上虫子会比较多,早睡早起就可以了。房主很热情,白天风景也很不错。

The hosting family is very helpful, warm and funny too :D We enjoyed it very much. The dinner was one of the best dinners in our whole trip. So you have to check it out. We were staying in the treehouse and we loved it. It's right next to a small river with doctorfish in it, so don't waste your money in Galle at a foot spa for it, as we did ;) Book it!

Owner are so nice and helpfuly! Thanx a lot!!

Chaminda and Mali are possibly the sweetest and most accommodating hosts we have met in Sri Lanka. The treehouse is everything it appears to be, but the delicious food, location, river, and generosity of the hosts with tuk tuk rides adds much more value to this experience. Well worth staying here while exploring Sigiriya and around, 2 nights minimum. The vibe in this area is very relaxing and easy to stay for a while, we loved it. Only note the tree house can be noisy when the wind is up, but chaminda has made measures to reduce noise and steps are steep for older people. All round great experience. Mali's is some of the best cooking on Sri Lanka.

we really enjoyed our stay at the silent rest. it was a fun night. we got to see monkeys, peacocks and bats. and the the view is absolutely stunning! we

This place is FANTASTIC! Ella is a bit much with all the foreign tourists so this place is the perfect location because it is right off of the central square but tucked away in the woods so that you can escape from the noise of the little city. The place itself is very very clean and spacious. I also had a hot shower which was a rare find for me in Sri Lanka hotels/airbnbs. Breakfast the next day on the terrace was both lovely and delicious. Highly recommend this place!

We had a amazing time in this place, super location, monkey visit in the morning. Near Ella Rock and little waterfall. Just a missunderstanding for the check out with Nilantha.

We loved staying here. The house overlooks the local farms and is far from the main/busy part of town (10 min. walk) The place is perfectly situated to walk to the waterfall, Ella's Rock, or just stroll on the train tracks. Our host provided breakfast and tea each morning which was an added bonus. The room is minimal which is perfect if you're looking for peace and quiet away from the touristic side of Ella.

Beautiful and quiet place just out of town with an amaZing view over the surrounding mountains. The location is perfect, near the trail so you can do Ella rock and little adam' s peak and it's only a 20 min walk into town. The host is a very lovely, caring person. She welcomes you with tea and cookies :) speaks only little english but a friend is always available on the phone to do the translation and helps you around to Find your way in and around Ella. Great place to stay!

a wonderful place! we loved it a lot and the host helped us whenever we asked one of our questions, we only regret that we could not stay longer...

Nilantha and his family are amazing hosts! Their curries are delicious and the house is definitely worth staying in!

Very beautiful place with stanning views!! The walk to the village was easy and through amazing sceneary :) Nilantha and his wife were very good hosts providing every information and help needed! Definately would recommend their place!!!
