Incredible view and delicious breakfast. Slightly out of Ella town which we preferred and an easy tuk tuk up the hill if you do head into town

The hosts are the most lovely people ever. They truly care about their guests and even prepared breakfast for us to go at 5.30am. The house is a bit out of town but the walk there in the evening is magical, surrounded by fireflies and nature you can walk down the street in easy 20min from town. Highly recommend :)

The location is beautiful, it has a very romantic vibe to it. The way they have built the wooden cabin is so aesthetic and well planned. The hosts were super helpful and the breakfast was amazing

This family guesthouse is a really wonderful experience. We arrived a little earlier than planned and the room was promptly made available for us. They helped with all of our questions & arranged a bike for us and we had a lovely breakfast every morning on the balcony. Fantastic communication throughout and really lovely hosts - thanks so much!

We had a wonderful stay at Breeze Blows Inn Guesthouse. The rooms were spacious, beautifully maintained, and ideal for families. Each of our children had their own bed, which gave everyone some much-needed privacy and comfort after a long journey — a real plus! The location is excellent — just a couple of minutes short walk from the center of Ella, so it’s easy to explore the town. There’s also a great outdoor area with a large terrace, comfortable chairs, and a relaxing hammock — perfect for unwinding after a day of travel or sightseeing. Most of all, we truly appreciated the warm welcome and kindness of the guesthouse owner. His hospitality made us feel right at home and really added to the experience. We highly recommend Breeze Blows Inn Guesthouse to anyone visiting Ella!

Staying at this accommodation was the best decision we have made!!! We were welcomed by the most beautiful family, after a long journey. We were able to park our tuk tuk under CCTV which made us feel reassured. We booked all 3 rooms, and they were all incredible. The accommodation was extremely clean, and the rooms are all attached to a balcony with a view of the mountains and lots of birds. The rooms have hot water and REAL beds with REAL pillows and a duvet. No AC needed, the area is nice and cool. We took a tour of the family's rice fields and vetegable garden. The highlight of this accommodation is the food that the family prepares for you. We have been in Sri Lanka for almost a year, and this was by far the best food we have had! The breakfast is included and is huge and varied. They provide many different options including fruits, hoppers, juices, teas, coffees, dahl, sambol, pancakes, rotis, avocado and so much more! We decided to order dinner through the accommodation as well. Each dinner has about 10 different dishes and you are able to make requests if needed. We had all sorts of incredible food like jackfruit curry, fish curry, chicken curry, noodles, rice, eggs, papadom, and everything else you could think of! (And beers) All in all, our stay here was absolutely incredible and it was the highlight of our trip. We can highly recommend!!

Superb experience ! We highly recommend this accommodation. The location is ideal (surely one of the best views of Ella), the facility is modern, clean, practical and well furnished. Everything is done to make you feel at home. More than just a place to stay, it is also the opportunity to meet incredible hosts. Our three hosts have always been kind, thoughtful, interested in knowing more about us, and willing to share their experience / recommandations of Sri Lanka. The service level is a 10/10 ! In addition, pet lovers will also have the opportunity to meet two adorable dogs, always happy to greet visitors. Not a problem though if your are less inclined to meet dogs as they do not share the same area of the house.

Wonderful homestay in the calm and beautiful mountains of Ella! We can recommend 100% this cosy place with a great and tasty breakfast, cooked from the best, friendliest and most helpful host. We stayed 2 more days because we enjoyed it so much. Also a private cooking class was arranged only for us. We will come back for sure 😌

Janith, the owner, and his family made us feel very welcomed! It really felt like a cozy homestay. The room was modern and clean. The breakfast was delicious and beautifully presented. The view from the homestay was equally as beautiful in the morning. Janith is an excellent host! He made sure we felt good and that we got the most of our short stay in Ella. He helped us plan our activities and made sure we got good deals. He was responding very quickly on Whatsapp.

It was a perfect stay at Adam's apple homestay :) Super friendly host (and really, really helpful - if you need anything, don't hesitate, Wasantha can help you with it!), one the best views from the room we've ever experienced during our travels, delicious food, privacy, and relaxing atmosphere. This the place you want to visit each time, when you are in Sri Lanka :)

Lovely host family, very welcoming. Amazing views from the terraces on each level. Rooms are comfortable with hot water showers and air con. Great breakfast in the morning. We asked for omelettes the second day and this was not a problem. Just bear in mind there is a very steep hill down to the accommodation so bear in mind if you have any difficulty mobility wise. The Main Street is very close for restaurants etc and the walk to the nine arch bridge and little Adam’s peak is quite close from the homestay.

Really nice homestay!! Great location! It’s downtown Ella but away from the main road in the nature so it’s quiet and peaceful! 3 min walking to the main road by the shortcut.The garden and patio are beautiful. Breakfast is really good and big! The owner and his wife are so welcoming and generous, always ready to help and making sure we have everything we need. I recommend this homestay!

The host is definitely friendly, helpful, and welcoming. I would like to give this homestay scores 10 in the beginning. They even managed to find a scooter for me. However, my meal offered by the host at the last night was too expensive. A traditional local vegetarian food only for one person cost me 2500LKR !

I really enjoyed staying there. The hosts were amazing and very helpful. The location is close to the city and far away enough to avoid all the noise from the city. The room and the bed were really big and I had the best nights in this home stay !
