This place is incredible :) our best accomodation in Sri Lanka. View is spectacular, we can see Ravana waterfall from bed. Room is very clean, cosy, owners thought about everything: hot shower, fridge, cool glasses and water, shampoo and shower gel, we can use even hairdryer here! Tasty, local breakfast, juices, coffee. Very kind and helpful owners, we felt very comfortable and spent fantastic time here. Highly recommend! Thank you for having us 🌸

We are very happy to be the first local guest to stay in this accommodation.This is our first experience staying at a homestay. Wingate Homestay is a perfect place to stay in Ella. It is close to the Ella town (5min walking distance) and the Railway station, nine arch bridge and Little Adams peak. The room was very pleasant, it was cozy and clean.The bathroom is very impressive and The hot water shower is really great.The room and bathroom are very modern. Breakfast was excellent. Lunch was served very deliciously with our favorite dishes. They provided tea and coffee in the morning and evening. Fresh fruit juice are served in the afternoon.The owner has always been friendly, patient and helpful. That impressed me the most.The price is also very reasonable.

Perfect location, great views, near railways, so you can see the trains passing by. In 7 minutes you can walk to Ella. The other way on the railway will bring you to the waterfall en Ella Rock. When you just passed the trainbridge, go down, and ask the women for guiding you to a beautiful viewpoint. On your own its difficult to find. Breakfast is good. The caretaker Lashman is gentle and tells a lot of things to visit/to do. From were you will have breakfast, the view uphill is lovely, looks like a jungle. We parked our tuktuk just across the railway.

The hosts, father and son, were very friendly and welcoming. On arrival, I was served tea and cookies. The room was clean, neat and the terrace overlooked a beautiful view of the mountains. Breakfast was served in front of my room on the terrace and was good. Each morning I was served fresh juice with my breakfast.

we were flabbergasted by the view at ella gap from the rooftop. crew was amazingly helpful. they drove our tuktuk up to the guesthouse because we didn’t dare to drive the steep hill. hilltop is away from the busy and loud mainstreet. superquiet allthough 5 minutes from the centre. our host gave us the perfect advice to get around.

Really great location just up from the high street in quiet area. Pleasant terrace outside room with place to relax. Good hot shower with good pressure. Large bed and friendly host who offered lots of travel advice. No aircon in room, but air cooler in room was sufficient
