Our host was incredibly hospitable and went out of his way to meet our every want and need. He drove us and picked us up, suggested activities, and helped us out in an emergency when we needed to go to the local hospital. The rooms boast amazing views of the jungle, which is full of fireflies at night. They also have a projector so you can stream entertainment of your choice. 10/10 I strongly recommend Fern Hill cabins for your stay in Ella.

We stayed 2 nights in the cabin with the most amazing view on 9 Arch Bridge and the surroundings. It is a very peaceful place, clean and made with love, away from the noise and crowds of Ella town, yet very well situated to visit the main attractions. 9 Arch Bridge is only a 5min walk downhill from the cabin and from its terrace (or even the bed) prime views of the bridge and passing trains can be enjoyed. What we loved most about this place however, other than the stunning views and cozy cabin, were the owners (a lovely sri lankan couple) which were so warm and welcoming, absolute treasures. They were very helpful, interested and discrete and they spoiled us with delicious juices and food for breakfast and dinner. We recommend this place without a doubt to everyone that wants to have a beautiful encounter with a caring host family and have a magical stay in Ella nature.

We had a truly wonderful stay and couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. The accommodation was absolutely fabulous—comfortable, beautifully maintained, and thoughtfully designed to meet every need. The staff were exceptionally friendly and welcoming, going above and beyond to make us feel at home. The food was another highlight, offering a delicious variety of well-prepared dishes that delighted our taste buds. This was the best breakfast we received in Sri Lanka. Overall, it was a perfect getaway, and we’re already looking forward to returning!

Our hosts went out of their way to make sure we were looked after. The cottage is basic but excellent for the price and has everything you need. The view is spectacular and quiet, as we did not want to be in Ella central which is too noisy. The cottage is an eight minute tuk tuk ride to town, with the host lifting us everywhere, plus took us to the start of the sunrise hike. And they made us the best breakfast in sri lanka. Also don't miss walking down to Bees Honey for a meal.

The accommodation is hosted by a lovely family and it is located right in between Little Adams Peak and 9 arches bridge. You can reach both within a 30 minutes walk. Ella town is also just a short walk away, however still far enough away from the busy town to provide a perfectly calm and green/nature environment to relax. Price/Value ratio is amazing.

10 of 10! We stayed 5 nights at Hill Safari with our two little boys. The scenery is amazing. The garden with all the flowers is very relaxing. We were able to do some hikes directly from the apartment. Thank you very much for your warm hospitality and the fanstastic food!

This is the nicest lodge i stayed in my whole trip in Sri Lanka. Not too expensive but the view from our balcony is more than enough to cover the room amount we paid. You'll wake up with the Nine Arch Bridge and feel the nature from already. The breakfast was super good, the melon shake must try. Hehehe! Also the view while having breakfast is superb. The houst also is very kind to pick and drop us in the road since we need to ride the tuktuk to reach the lodge. Highly recommended.

Spectacular views, kind and attentive hosts and the best Sri Lankan breakfast we’ve had so far (and we’ve had some amazing breakfasts). Spice Lodge is near Little Adams Peak and the Nine Arch Bridge and that was the main reason we chose it at first but would love to come back. The fireflies at night were magical!

Amazing view and great design of the lodge merged with nature so well. But nothing would be the same without great host who really puts a smile on your face and help with everything. Ella is such an amazing place a must see

Really amazing lodge in an beautiful spot. Staff are wonderful, especially the chef. A true nature resort close to Ella train station. The breakfast is amazing and get’s cooked right on your terrace. We also had a dinner, which was delicious. We did not meet the owner but had a really good communication with him. They were also very nice to let us stay with a 3rd child and even prepared an additional bed for him. Overall we really enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend it when taking into account some minor points (mentioned below).

Angelo is a superb host. I really think this place should charge you more than they do right now. I didnt expect much before i arrive but it was a super clean room, full of sound of nature at night. Very nice balcony. Angelo was there at 4:45 am to bid a farewell and he was an exceptional host from the beginning. If you are travelling with a budget, dont even think twice and book Tantra Ella Lodge.

Arana eco lodge is a really beautiful property, located above the city center, which makes it peaceful and beautifully surrounded by nature. I took the morning yoga classes, which were a great way to start the day.
