The hosts were wonderful, so warm and responsive and always looked out for me which was nice when I was travelling solo. The room is the only one there and totally private. You step onto the terrace and the views of the hills are stunning and at night the private garden is all lit up. Enchanting with a magical vibe and the breakfast excellent value and beautifully presented. Nothing was too much trouble and they put me in touch with a trusted tuk tuk driver. Ella main town was only ,8-10 minutes by tuk tuk. I would definitely stay at Treetops again!!

Was a bit outside the city. Easy to reach with tuktuk thought (1000 rupies per ride)

Amazing hosts, super friendly and helpful. Delicious breakfast, different every day made with a lot of love. Directly in front of rain forrest. We could see green parrots all the time. Close to the nine arch bridge and little Adams peak. You can walk directly from there to these 2 places.

As you may know already, Ella is a very touristy place. We didn't book anything in advance, so we were finding it difficult to find some good quality-price location to stay. But then we found Tree Tops. What an amazing place. We were so warmly received and we felt like we were at home. The room is very clean, with a comfortable bed, good bathroom with hot water and a mini fridge. You could notice that every detail in the room was carefully picked. And, of course, as a foodie, the best part for me was the Sri Lankan breakfast - different in the two days, but both with typical Sri Lankan food, prepared with love and care. At night, you can hear an animal orchestra from the room, so you really feel connected to nature. If you are overwhelmed with all the options in Ella and want a place to relax and feel at home, just a tuktuk drive away from all the activities, just go there. Thank you so much for receiving us like this, we will never forget these 2 days here.

I stayed in this little oasis for 2 nights and absolutely enjoyed my time here. It‘s a bit outside of busy Ella which I personally liked a lot. The accommodation is in a small village and the room is surrounded by plants and trees. It is a very cozy atmosphere here. I had a warm and kind welcome from the hosts, they made my stay a very pleasant one. The room was clean and was decorated in a quite nice way. The breakfast on the terrace was very good. In total, I can recommend Treetops Ella and would definitely go here again.

Very pleasant and helpful owners. Clean room and excellent breakfast. The position of the property is fantastic overlooking a tea plantation. Sit on the balcony and watch small parrots fly by with a variety of other birds and wildlife. Highly recommended.

We didn’t mind the 2 minute Tuk tuk journey back to and from the main road, don’t be put off by this!

Beautiful setting down a track in the jungle. Only one room for guests so peaceful and in a way exclusive. Our hostess couldn’t do enough for us, and the room was carefully prepared with lots of nice touches ( mosi spray, torches, Bluetooth speaker, yoga mats ) Delicious breakfasts too.

Stayed in January 2025

The place was down a steep track and well out of Ella. This was nice on one hand as peaceful and tranquill but too far ro walk so you did need tuktuk. We hired scooters and that made it perfect.

Beautiful place nestled in the jungle - amazing listening to the sounds of nature at night. The hosts had thought of lots of handy little extras that made our stay more comfortable. Books, games, mini bar, ear buds and nail clippers, hammock :) They were really freindly and it was a privilege to stay with them. The breakfast was absolutely massive and delicious. We did feel bad that we couldn't eat it all when it had all been homemade.

Nothing at all the hosts have got it very good!

We loved our stay at Treetops it's in an amazing setting in the jungle which is very tranquil away from the busiest of Ella town! It's only a ten minute drive away though we had our own tuk tuk dropped off there which made it easier or the hosts can arrange a tuk tuk for you. You are the only guests and you get a large terrace area with garden looking out onto the best view! The breakfast is so good it's the best we have had in Sri Lanka very traditional and you get a good choice! The hosts are lovely and accommodating making you feel very welcome☺️ The room is a good size, with added touches- fridge with a mini bar which was very reasonable, books and games. The bed is very comfy and the fan was fine we didn't miss air con but it's cooler in the night in Ella so just having a fan is all you need.

We loved our stay at TreeTops! The hosts were amazing helping us with any questions, bringing us extra coffee and biscuits, and always with a smile. We had an issue with our train so had to leave very early and they even gave us a breakfast to go which was so thoughtful!! The breakfast was amazing with beautiful views!

There’s nothing it to like really, with the rainy season brings leeches and it’s about a 45 minute walk into Ella, which in parts is quite dark. My husband and I love a walk, so wasn’t a problem for us. But tuk tuks, can be arrange for about 700 rupees.

The property was has a real sense of calm, beautiful birds and chipmunks, surrounded by trees. It’s clean and a good size, with everything you might need, yoga mats, water and wine. Tea and coffee also provided, with a few books to read.

Nothing we didn’t like! It had everything we needed for a nice time 🧡

Beautiful secluded little jungle home! You’re far away from the busyness of Ella town, yet close enough to go there to explore. We felt so relaxed after our stay at Treetops, such a nice vibe, beautiful people as hosts and an amazing fresh Sri Lankan breakfast!

Don’t go if you aren’t ok with insects. It’s beautiful and in the jungle, and that does come with more bugs

Hosts were really lovely. Breakfast was amazing. Location was a bit out of town, really nice to be away from it and close to little Adam’s peak.

Nothing, it was perfect! 🙂

The hosts were very warm, welcoming & happy to assist with any questions. The room was super-clean & comfortable. The breakfasts were the best we had the whole trip! Location is close enough to Ella, but far enough away to be surrounded by nature...

There is nothing negative I can think of.

The attention to detail in the room and facilities, amazing breakfast, lovely and helpful owners. The location is amazing!

The last part of the route to the homestay is very offroad. Not all Tuk Tuk drivers were happy to go down the hill. The location is both a pro and a con: very nice, relax view over the hills between birds, monkeys and beautiful nature, but you need a Tuk tuk for each trip.

Treetops is a great homestay away from the crowdy village. They offer a great breakfast, both Sri Lankan & Western. And: they have hot water for a shower. :-) Very friendly hosts who help to arrange your local trips. They are a young couple, speaking English fluently.

The service was outstanding! The host arranged everything from tuk tuk rides to early morning drop off to the train station. Bit further from Ella center but for 800-1000 lrk your there.

Nowhere to hang anything, no cupboard, no drawers, no hooks. Easily rectified I’m sure.

Lovely kind gentle couple. Very comfortable and spotlessly clean. Large shower room, electric fan, and nice bed with mos net. Kettle, fridge with drinks I could help myself to plus tea and coffee, pretty outside area to sit, hammock to lie in. Fabulous breakfast surrounded by beautiful trees. Not in central Ella which is fine as Ella is noisy and although quieter it’s still in a local neighbourhood. Easy 1000lkr tuk tuk and I walked there and back via the 9 arches one day. The host very kindly got me to the station early the day I travelled, with a packed breakfast!

Just for your information, it is located a bit outside of Ella, but can be reached easily and cheaply by tuk tuk.

A magical place in the middle of nature, just outside of Ella. The room is beautifully furnished and extremely well equipped and includes a wonderful private terrace. The hosts are very attentive and communicative, and serve an incredibly great breakfast. Unfortunately we were only there for one night, but we would be happy to come back anytime.

A wonderful address ! Hosts are so kind and do all they can to make your stay memorable. The room with a view on the jungle is very comfortable, even provided with a fridge full of soft drinks and water for free. The breakfast is exceptional. One of the very best place we have stayed in Sri Lanka. I recommend it!!
