Più che perfetto!!!
Pros:

È il posto più bello in cui ho dormito in tutto lo Sri Lanka. La camera è bellissima e curatissima nei dettagli. Bel bagno, bel terrazzo, ottimo letto. Inoltre i proprietari sono una famiglia spieciale, gentilissimi, mi hanno fatta sentire a casa. Ho fatto anche la cooking class con loro ed è stata bellissima.
Tutto più che perfetto!!

Un lugar excelente. Una familia encantadora que te ayuda en todo. La comida de las mejores en todo el viaje a Sri Lanka. Las vistas son espectaculares, invitan a relajarse y estar en contacto con la naturaleza. A 5 minutos en tuk tuk del centro. Repetiríamos!

Amazing place to choose in Ella! Highly recommended!
Pros:

I really enjoyed my stay here and would absolutely recommend it to everyone. If you’re unsure about where to stay, this is definitely the right place to choose. The owners and team are incredibly kind and welcoming, and they helped me with everything I needed. The breakfast is absolutely amazing, and staying here truly made me feel like part of their family. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! ❤️

Cons:

Everything was perfect!

Pros:

Beautiful rooms with a stunning view. The family running the accommodation is lovely. Ella is a busy, touristy town; the accommodation is situated far enough away to enjoy some peace and quiet, yet close enough to reach the main street with a quick tuk-tuk ride (which the owner can arrange for you). The owner was very helpful. The laundry service was excellent and fast.

Heerlijk verblijf!
Pros:

Mooie schone kamer, ruime badkamer, lekkere bedden en hele aardige familie!

Met een Tuk Tuk werd je heen en weer gereden naar het centrum en ook kan je er lekker eten. Helaas hadden wij geen tijd om de kookworkshop te volgen, we weten zeker dat die ook geweldig is.

Cons:

Niets

Séjour parfait dans un homestqy chaleureux
Pros:

Nous avons tout aimé ! La gentillesse de Nilu et son mari, l’emplacement à 5 mins de Tuktuk du centre ville, la vue magnifique sur la vallée, le petit déjeuner fait maison (pancakes farcis à la noix de coco et miel à tomber par terre), le cooking class avec Nilu très apprécié par mes enfants et moi-même. Nous sommes restés 3 nuits dans la chambre familiale qui était parfait. Il y a pleines de choses à visiter dans les environnements. Vraiment je recommande vivement!

Cons:

Rien !

Prachtige lokatie, fijne mensen
Pros:

Vanuit je ontbijt kijk je je de jungle onder het genot van een fresh juice, je zaten apen door de bomen slingeren en je hoort de waterval, waar je ook een frisse duik kan nemen. Centrum is makkelijk bereikbaar met de tuk-tuk
Locatie is prachtig, eigenaren erg behulpzaam en lief, heerlijk gegeten, goede cooking class.

Nothing to dislike
Pros:

The hosts went out of their way to look after us. They organised all our transportation at a good price & made the logistics of getting around so easy. Our family did the cooking class, which was a highlight of our trip and very affordable. The location was a tuk tuk away from the city and very quiet and peaceful - highly recommend.

Perfect
Pros:

We loved our stay in the nature woodland. The property is in such a peaceful location you can hear the waterfall and the birds chirping in the morning and evening. Chami and his wife are some of the nicest people we have met and couldn’t be more hospitable. Any questions we had about the area they were able to help, they also helped organise a scooter for the few days and our transport to the next locations in Sri Lanka. One of our favourite stays so far would definitely recommend

Cons:

Nothing
