    Fabulous accommodation. The staff, the views, the food all exceptional. Easy to get into Ella, just a few minutes by tuk tuk. We had room 11 and we did have a little noise from the road.

    Lovely hotel with incredible views overlooking waterfalls and wooded hills. The hotel had a pool and was just a short Tuk Tuk ride into Ella, where there were a number of lovely restaurants.

    It a little challenge to get to the hotel but most drivers are experienced in getting up the narrow road.

    A real relaxing retreat and it was a divine stay. Amazing breakfast and food. The bedrooms were amazing. Best massage I have ever had.

    The property has one of the best views in Ella, the staff is the nicest we met in 3 weeks Sri Lanka and it is located right around the Main Street in a quieter area. The breakfast is amazing, as are other dishes you can order all day long. We definitely loved that place.

    Incredible atmosphere in a well-presented location. Looking out directly toward Ella Rock and only a 15-minute walk to the 9-arch bridge. Great for young families as it has a pool and play area that's entertaining enough to allow parents to relax.

    Great location in Ella and just off the high street so it was lovely and quiet with great views. Staff, especially Marcus, were all very friendly & courteous. The food was really good too.

    Although some people say that it was not value for money for us as a family it was. The room was great and the view and hammock in the balcony was luxury for us. Staff was very attentive and there were always people to help us if needed. The property was very well kept and clean. The dhal curry was delicious, definitely to recommend! The kids corner made sure our boys were entertained (2 and 4). We did not go to the center of Ella much which suited us but just did some excursions but it was very well walkable (although there was a very steep hill). All in all probably our favorite stay in Sri Lanka 😍

    Lots of steps and the pool could be a bit bigger but that’s being fussy The tuk tuk ride up the hill is 500 slr

    Staff were lovely. Nice big room and 2 outdoor play areas. The best one by the restaurant with toys, activities and a sandpit for the kids. The hotel is up a steep hill and then there are steps down to the reception and the rooms but it’s ok. The view is stunning and it’s much quieter here than anywhere on the strip in Ella Food was really good too. Nice breakfast and we ate lunch after a bit of a stressful day and the food was really good

    A bit pricy but seems to be specific for Ella. Yoga has to be paid but is still great with a nice view and Look sbetter than on pictures.
