Everything about this property was out of a fairy tale. The trip into the mountains, away from the main town definitely made it worth the effort getting there. The dorm room offers an unobstructed view of the Ella valley, and the landscaping, architecture, and design of the place was amazing. The couple who own the property were friendly, accommodative, and helpful. Cannot suggest anywhere better for your private gatherings or to just escape into the magical, cool and misty hills.

I absolutely loved my stay here. It’s out of town but that’s what made it so special, it was so peaceful. It had a beautiful view out into the rice fields and mountains and the walk along the train tracks was beautiful. The building itself was so cute and included brekky and dinner! Plenty to do around.

This place is like an oasis of peace and quiet from the noisy and crowded place that is Ella. The bungalow is located on the mountainside with a beautiful view. The terrace with a hammock was my favorite place where I could observe nature while drinking a cup of warm tea. The rooms are clean, the water in the bathroom is hot. The only downside is that you can hear a little bit of the person from the next room. The staff is great, thank you very much for these evening conversations

Excellent location, at a walking distance from ella railway station....you don't have to take a tuk tuk when you reach Ella. Also at walking distance from nine arch bridge. Courtesy at its best.....we had some problems with the snoring of a guest ha ha , but owner shifted us to expensive dorm without any extra charge. Thanks to him, would love to visit again..

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
