Ella Breeze Homestay

Nice stuff. Sri Lankan Experience. Amazing Views. Quiet.

Really far away from Ella

Everything was just perfect!! We have been there for 4 nights. Devaka and his family have been so nice and the food (breakfast & dinner) was really good. Devaka took us to a tea factory which was very interesting and also gave us a lot of helpful tips for the hikes and other stuff to do around. Room was small but had everything, also very confortable beds. The shower was also hot, what is very nice when it‘s a bit colder. The place was perfect, far away from the chaotic Ella but close enough to the train station. Thanks again to Devaka and his family. Highly recommended to stay there!!

Was close enough to Ella to do the activities, but far away enough to not be in the tourist hell hole that has become Ella. And our host was brilliant - kind, helpful, full of tips (and maps, and snacks from his garden!). Would definitely recommend.

That it didn't stop raining for 2 days solid, but that can't be blamed on the accommodation! If that happens, take up the offer of a tour of the tea factory (I heard it was great), and get a massage.

That was the BEST EXPERIENCE we have ever had during the stay. The host and his family was kind, helpful in unbelievable way. They cared about us so much, they've been serving tea and other meals throughout the stay. Food was delicious, place was a bit far from the city centre which was an advantage taking into consideration the traffic in Ella. The host guided us in Tea Factory and took us for the sunrise trekking to ELLA Rock. If u ever have a change to come to Ella, you need to choose this one.

Most beautiful location and nature. Host was so helpful and warm. Explained how to walk to Ella Rock from his property and gave us ideas of what to do locally. Even drew a map!! We had home cooked meals which were delicious And we went on the tea plantation tour at an old factory which he arranged and drove us too Beautiful stay and lovely host ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Lovely area on the train line . You can walk a few mins & get the train to Ella . Tuk tuk can be pricey Gorgeous family , couldn’t do enough for you . Brought us up Ella rock for sunrise , offered other lifts & shopping if needed. Perfect English. Food excellent. We had a fabulous stay .. for a budget accommodation/ homestay it couldn’t be better .

For the money it’s perfect. Can’t fault .

Very nice family! Clean room, good food, nice view from terase!

We had a fantastic stay here, largely thanks to Devaka, one of the most welcoming and helpful hosts we’ve met in Sri Lanka. He gave us great tips and directions for exploring the area. He even took us to a local tea factory and gave us an excellent tour himself, with thorough explanations. There’s more than enough to do in the area for at least three days - we stayed four nights and loved it. The location is perfect for hiking to Ella Rock. From the guesthouse, it’s a scenic 1-1.5 hour trek through train tracks, a village and beautiful forests. It’s a much easier route than the steep trek from Ella town. The guesthouse is in a peaceful spot, away from the chaos of Ella, and right by Heel Oya train station. It’s surrounded by nature and we enjoyed watching the trains and spotting tropical birds from the balcony. If you’re into nature and quiet, this is the place. Ella is close enough for a day trip to Little Adam’s Peak and the Nine Arches Bridge, but staying here is much more relaxing. The room was one of the best we’ve had in 10 months of traveling Asia - super clean, airy (thanks to windows at the back and large balcony door at the front), comfortable, with soft sheets, a hot shower and plenty of storage.

Located in the hills but easily accessible to Ella by tuktuk or nearby bus, the homestead is a peaceful oasis away from the hubub of town. The rooms are spotlessly clean, a good size with a comfortable bed and aircon. The bathroom has a hot water shower. The meals my host, Devaka, provided were plentiful and delicious. He speaks perfect English and goes out of his way to assist you in any way he can. I cannot recommend this homestay more highly.
