Sinharaja Kurulu Ella Eco Resort

Einzigartiges Hotel direkt im Dschungel, tolle Aussicht und grosszügige Zimmer. Die beiden Besitzer sind herzallerliebst und sehr hilfsbereit. Wasserfall ist direkt in der Nähe und man verbringt die Nacht mitten im Geschehen.

Excepional hospitality, personal service and divine location

The room was truly outstanding; being right in the middle of the jungle was an unforgettable experience, and the large windows made it even more magical, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in nature. The couple who hosted us were incredibly kind and welcoming. We went on several treks with Janith, including jungle night walks and daytime hikes, and he was excellent at spotting wildlife such as snakes, lizards, and many other animals. He has deep knowledge of the area, and it was fascinating to listen to his stories about how the region has changed over time and its history. We always felt very well taken care of. The food was also delicious and full of flavor. Thank you for this wonderful experience.

Setting is spectacular. Small, unique, totally off the beaten track. Welcoming and knowledgable husband and wife team. Delicious food. We felt very well taken care of.

Being isolated, all meals and snacks needed to be pre planned (which meant we couldn’t be totally spontaneous) and they were slightly expensive…although excellent quality, prepared with care and fresh, often home grown ingredients. More storage in the room would have been lovely. Perhaps change sheets given how damp the environment is given the location.

What a fabulous place and what fabulous owners! Even before we arrived, Janith and Manisha were actively contacting us to make sure we knew how to arrive at the Eco Lodge and to offer any assistance or help that they could. We were greeted warmly on arrival, given one of Manisha’s amazing lime coolers and shown to our room. Even though we were only travelling as a couple, I had booked the superior family room as I’d been wowed by the pictures on the booking sites. It was absolutely the right decision. The room was privately situated, surrounded by a green canopy of trees with constant sightings of birds, monkeys and other creatures and had an amazing view of the waterfall. It was extremely spacious and had one of the most luxurious bathrooms I saw in Sri Lanka. We stayed for three nights and took a day hike and a night trek into the surrounding rainforest, which Janith arranged for us. The hike and trek were both brilliant and we really enjoyed them. It’s hugely clear that Janith and Manisha are caring and passionate stewards of their surroundings and they took great care to share the beauties of the rainforest with us, whilst ensuring our impact was as light as possible from an ecological perspective. We ate at the lodge every day as there is nowhere else close to eat but that was absolutely no hardship as all of the food was freshly prepared, tasted delicious and presented with a huge amount of care and attention. Manisha is an amazing cook and there is huge variety in the options available. Her Sri Lankan curry was one of the best meals I ate whilst in the country. This was the place we enjoyed most on our trip to Sri Lanka. The rainforest is stunning and worth a visit regardless, but combined with the wonderful experience provided by Janith and Manisha it really was a special time.

Zeer gastvrije eigenaars die je in de watten willen leggen. Geweldig eten en goede tips over wat je allemaal kunt doen in de omgeving.

Lieu idéal en plein milieu de la nature avec un hôte qui nous apprend beaucoup sur les insectes, animaux et plantes ! Trek organisé par l’hôte très belle expérience !

לקחנו את החדר שכולו זכוכיות וזה היה מדהים ברמות

לשים לב שיש מדרגות לחדר, ולקחת בחשבון רעש של מפל ושל חיות אבל זה גם הקסם כמובן

Eenvoudige accommodatie, prima voor een niet te lang verblijf. De jungle tour was erg goed. Veel gezien en heel veel gekregen.

Je hebt geen direct uitzicht op waterval vanuit de kamer, je hoort hem wel.
