The entirely wooden home was an amazing sight and the view was even better. We arrived in the evening and woke up to a spectacular sight hearing the river/waterfalls down below. Absolutely stunning. The family that runs Wood Palace is amazing and has been great in accommodating us with anything we needed during our stay, first making arrangements for me as I was planning to propose to my girlfriend and later whilst our son got sick. The amazing starry nights from the balcony and fireflies lighting up the view topped it off. It’s located a little outside of Ella (5min drive) which made it very peaceful and quiet. The owner has a TukTuk and can bring you anywhere you need very quickly. Would definitely recommend! Thank you for a very memorable stay

One of the most unique aspects of the property is its exceptional location near Kithaya Ella, a lesser-known waterfall, which adds a sense of exclusivity. Guests can take a short walk to the waterfall, where they can enjoy the soothing sounds of cascading water while being immersed in nature. The service is personalized and warm, with staff who go above and beyond to make your stay memorable.

If you like nature, you have to book this place when you have the chance to! The view is simply amazing, directly looking at nine arches bridge, you can look at trains passing by all day long. The house is high enough that it isn’t too noisy, but close enough to just walk down to the bridge from the house. The view of the trees surrounding the nine arches bridge, for me, is surprisingly even more amazing than the bridge itself. Even though we visit on downpour days, and not possible to stay in the balcony at all times, the house still feels so cozy and the large windows allow us to enjoy the view all the same. The owner himself is also amazing. He took great care of us to ensure we have everything we need, and drove us into town and back to the house. He is always here! The breakfast is Sri Lankan, delicious, and the portion is huge! In fact, the house is one of the highlights of our Sri Lankan trip. Thank you! We hope we will come back some day!

The host was incredibly kind and attentive, running the place together with his father and clearly taking great care of the property. They were always willing to go beyond what you’d normally expect, exactly the kind of warm hospitality we love about Sri Lanka. The view is absolutely stunning, it’s wonderfully quiet, and the breakfast was excellent. It’s a little farther from the busy center, which we actually appreciated because it made the stay feel calm and relaxing. Highly recommended!

Our favorite spot was Little Adam’s Peak, which was great for an easy outdoor activity and offered a wonderful view from the top. We ate at Chill Café, a nice, relaxed place with good food. I was impressed by the low cost of the food and drinks. Getting around Ella is very easy; you can move everywhere by tuk‑tuk at a very low cost. There are several family‑friendly activities, including pools, small adventure spots, playgrounds for kids, and even animal farms. Along the way, you can also see birds, monkeys, and other wildlife, which makes it fun for children. But if you love hiking and climbing, this is the place to be. You can easily walk 15 km a day just exploring the surrounding nature.

Ella was a buzzing little town lots of bars and restaurants surrounded by Amazing scenery. Must walk up to little adam’s of rai can get a tuk tuk to ravana adventure park and then walk or just walk from the town it isn’t far.

It's a very tourist-oriented place. We enjoyed the Little Adam Peak hike (lots of extra activities there) Ravana's Pool is a place to go for shore (stunning view from the pool and jacuzzi) Downtown offers a variety of food and places to listen to music and have a nice evening vibe. During our stay the disco and clubs were closed but usually there is a night scene apparently.

Loved Ella, stunning scenery.

Loved Ella, stunning scenery. Don't bother with the train unless you have a seat, it's heaving like a London tube in rush hour so no chance of seeing the bridge or anything at all! The drive from Kandy was incredible. I'd recommend hiring a tuk tuk, great fun though a bit scary and roads can be crazy. 🤣

An excellent boutique accommodation at Ella. It is nestled in the middle of a tea estate. 20 minutes drive from Ella. So peaceful and quiet. Beautiful 180° view from room balcony including Ella Waterfall. Manager Lahiru and his team of staff look after every guests' needs. All rooms come with tea, coffee making facilities, and bathroom toiletteries are provided. The infinity pool is located on top of a hill. It's absolutely stunning. Anyone can spend the whole day. Highly recommended.

This place was just top notch! As someone who has been living in guesthouses/ hotels for the past two years this spot just has all you got. Private bungalow with an double bed, good hot shower and views all over Ella. Will and his family treat you like their own and not to begin with their free breakfast which has great variety everyday and everything is fresh out of his garden. All the best for your homestay and I can not wait to return to Ella!

The hotel is new, the rooms are spacious and comfortable. The rooftop pool is nice with a good view of Ella Rock. The staff are wonderfull, and were available to help with everything I needed. Especially Ajey helped me feel welcome and gave me his personal phone number to communicate comfortably if I need anything. And even helped me find a room when I wanted to stay longer and the hotel was fully booked.
