We had the best stay!! The family that run the place are so sweet and kind, and they made us feel right at home! We absolutely loved spending time on the balcony and eating amazing breakfasts every morning with a stunning view of Ella Rock. Excellent value for money and perfect location, close to the main street but away enough from any noise. It was perfect and I hope we'll be back one day!

Absolutely loved our stay at the Kingdom of Ella! Our hosts were the loveliest people and were so kind in helping us with tuktuks and anything else we needed. It is located a 10 minute drive from the centre of Ella but you can walk to town in 30 minutes and you get incredible views along the way. Because of it's location the homestay is surrounded by beautiful jungle and tea fields and is incredibly peaceful, lovely to come back to after a busy Ella. The rooftop seating area is a lovely place to relax after a hike. Breakfast is incredible, the room is spotlessly clean with a huge comfortable bed and a lovely en suite. There are so many thoughtful amenities including a hair dryer. Absolutely wonderful stay!

The wonderful host has such an incredible smile and laugh. She made us feel at home straight away and was constantly offering us tea. The provided breakfasts were absolutely massive and delicious, and the one dinner we had at Bliss was equally good. The room was simple but spacious and clean, and you take breakfast on an outdoor table looking over the beautiful forest and beyond. The homestay is a 10 minute Tuktuk ride out of Ella but you are given the number of a fantastic driver who will take you anywhere you need to go in the area at any time.

Staying at the monastery for two nights was absolutely the highlight of our 16-day trip to Sri Lanka. It’s just a 6-7 minute walk along the railway tracks from the train station, while the regular road takes about 20 minutes uphill. The location is very convenient for hiking to Little Adam’s Peak and Ella Rock. The Chief Monk welcomed us personally with tea and introduced the temple’s program. Every evening at 6:30, you can join chanting and meditation. The breakfast was very hearty, and during our stay, we spotted small fish, shrimp, birds, and squirrels. Every evening, we enjoyed dinner at the monastery under the night sky—it was an incredible experience not to be missed. We were even able to see fireflies at night! The monastery provides a drying rack, which was very convenient. I highly recommend this unique and unforgettable stay.

Very nice view from the balcony, perfect for breakfast. The place is not in the center of Ella which means it is very calm and you can observe some animals. The staff is super nice and drove us several times with their Tuk Tuk to Ella and back at any desired time. I can only recommend.

Excellent stay at Holiday Homes Guest Inn - Ella. We felt very accommodated the whole time. We had a lovely breakfast every morning with some different form of pancakes every morning, peanut butter was also brought for us when asked :) Our towels were changed half way through and had a great little coffee station in our room. This stay was only 10min walk from the main street of Ella and very close to all the main attractions such as little Adams peak and Ellas rock. Our room and bed was lovely and clean, I would stay again.

Holiday homes guest inn was absolutely sublime, it was clean and well presented. I went there for some privacy as I was very sick and the hostess looked after me as if I were her own family, bringing me dry toast and refreshing drinks and medicine to my room. I felt so comfortable and felt much better the next day, and enjoyed breakfast from the restaurant which has an amazing view.

Holiday Homes was lovely! The room was nice and clean. Beautiful views from balcony. We enjoyed breakfast so much. Big portion and delicious! The best thing is the location. Everywhere is walkable. 30 minutes walk to Little Adam’s Peak and Nine Arches Bridge. The owner is friendly and so is her dog! We would definitely recommend this place!
