Bella Ella

We had a great couple of Days in Bella Ella. The family is heartwarmingly friendly and endeavourous the meet all expectations. Simply wonderful! The Breakfast is awesome and espacially the cooking class is worth doing!

Camera con vista bellissima sulle colline di Ella, proprietari gentilissimi e ci hanno dato varie info su cosa fare a Ella. Abbiamo mangiato uno dei migliori rice and curry di tutto il viaggio. Colazione ottima e abbondante.

Camera leggermente umida.

We absolutely loved our stay at Bella Ella. We stayed in the family room with two double beds and there was a nice little kitchenette as well. Was nice and cool at night in the mountains. Our favourite part was sitting on the balcony with Peona (amazing dog) and enjoying the view of the mountains. The host was extremely friendly and hospitable and made our stay in Ella such a joy. He drove us in our tuktuk into town and parked it safely each night. We also wanted to go bright and early to Nine Arches Bridge to avoid the crowds (highly recommend) and he woke up at 5am to bring our tuktuk down for us. Such an amazing property, host, (and puppy haha).

We had a wonderful stay at Bella Ella because of Lokus hospitality. The room is basic but very comfortable and the breakfast is amazing! You are around a 30 minute walk into the main Ella town, but the walk is not bad (beautiful views of the mountains) and a TukTuk back up is between 600-800lkr- Loku will also help to arrange TukTuks for a discounted price where possible.

If you want an affordable and authentic homestay experience in Ella this is the place for you, it’s away from the buzz of the town and very quiet but peaceful. If you’d rather be in walking distance from all the main bars and restaurants you may be better suited somewhere else!

Bella Ella ligt hoog in Ella. Daardoor een mooi uitzicht, midden in de natuur en uit de drukte van het stadje. De eigenaar, Loku, is ontzettend vriendelijk en doet enorm zijn best om er een geweldig verblijf van te maken. Lekker eten, je kunt aangeven wat je lekker vindt. Leuke tour gemaakt ook met Loku naar Secret Waterfall en een (echt secret) prachtige plek in de bergen met een watervalletje, een tempel en een geweldig uitzicht! Ook de dieren die je elkaar dag hartelijk komen begroeten zijn geweldig!

Beautiful location high up on the hillside of Ella town. The host was exceptionally welcoming and friendly and served a delicious and varied breakfast each day.

Wifi was a little slow at times.

It’s located outside of the noise of Ella, in the jungle surrounded by all the animals and amazing nature. It’s still very easy to go back and forth to town. I had an amazing stay thanks to Loku who is the kindest host I’ve met. He took me to visit beautiful places and was very helpful in anything I’d need. The food cooked by his mother is very good! As a solo female traveler I felt safe and cared for.
