    Couldn't fault a thing!

    Lovely rooms with comfortable beds, amazing breakfasts, and the most perfect location. We received the warmest of welcomes - wonderful hosts. We stayed two nights but could easily have stayed more - such a relaxing place.

    Sometimes I had to share my room with geckos on the walls… but they kept to themselves so it was okay :)

    Really neat and spacious room. Andy (the host) was very helpful, and made me feel comfortable during my stay. Breakfast is served outside overlooking beautiful views - was very relaxing every morning.

    This is an amazing place to stay in Ella. The view from the hotel’s location on the mountains and forests of Ella is breathtaking, the hotel is cosy and perfectly clean, the breakfast is delicious!!! And above all, the owners are so kind, helpful and friendly that it was truly sad for us to leave this place.

    The bathroom shower needs some form of separation to contain the water.

    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 had such a loveley stay. The view is amazing, you are in the middle of nature. The familiy running the guesthouse is so sweet and always ready to help. Food was just amazing, we had the best breakfast of our trip here. Within 10 minutes walking you are in Ella city center where you can find shops and cafés. Would definitely recommend and come back!

    What a special stay! Andy and Lillushi were so kind and accommodating. The views were incredible and the breakfast was delicious. The room was spotless (only 3 rooms, also no aircon but wasn’t a problem in Ella). We also appreciated that we were a bit out of town (about a 10 minute walk) which meant it was quiet and peaceful. An absolute gem of a place.

    Perfect nice guesthouse in a quiet location a little bit outside busy Ella. A very nice family takes care of the super clean rooms and the extra tasty breakfast and is helpful with any other questions, too. The location is very calm and a perfect place to relax on the terrace and watch the jungle and the neraby hilltops.

    Nothing.

    Stunning location with amazing views. Great value for money. Lovely fresh breakfast served on your own little terrace. Spotlessly clean. After dinner in Ella, and 5 min,£1 Tuk tuk ride back to our room, we spent the rest of the evening drinking wine on our little terrace, surrounded by fire flies, watching giant squirrels in the durian tree, fruit bats leaving the roost, and listening to the sound of the nearby waterfall. Amazing!!

    Great place to stay. Room was very clean and tidy. Breakfast was delicious and served privately on the terrace outside the room which was lovely. Great views and host was very accommodating. Organised lift from the station to his hotel and nothing felt like too much trouble. Can walk into town easily but was nice to be staying out of the very busy ella! Would definitely recommend.
