Moksha eco villa Ella

We were lucky to spend three nights in this little paradise and really enjoyed it. The accommodation is just outside Ella but can be reached quickly by tuk tuk or scooter. It is next to a rice field belonging to the owner's family with a great view of the countryside. There are always various birds and squirrels passing by. The accommodation itself has a wonderful, creative and comfortable interior with that certain something. The owner Bola and his family are wonderful, warm people who you immediately take to your heart. We always felt welcome and it felt like a home away from home. The breakfast was delicious and more than plenty and the evening meals prepared by Bola's wife were always excellent. The accommodation is a little paradise in the middle of nature. The hustle and bustle of the town of Ella can be forgotten here, if that's not what you're looking for, you're in the wrong place. For everyone else: Bola and his wife look after you so well that you don't even need to go anywhere else, as everything you need is on site. Little Adams Peak and the Nine-Arch-Bridge are both within a 20-30 minute walk from the accommodation. Bola was also kind enough to drive us to our next accommodation in Udawalewe. Thank you Bola for the great time with great conversations that we were able to spend with you. We will never forget this wonderful place.

A perfect piece of heaven in a hidden place. If you are looking for a peaceful place to stay - this is the best option. A lovely family and amazing food. Would recommend to everyone!

An authentic experience from a unique and genuine host. A man with a beautiful eye for the quirky and yet tasteful and unusual! Eager to please and keen to ensure your stay is a good one. His heart and soul are in this hide away in Ella. We came away happy to have stayed there.

A little far out (short Tuk Tuk drive) & road wasn’t always easy due to rains.

We loved, loved, LOVED our time at Mocksha Eco Villa. What a beautiful and special place. The villa was built by Bola (the host) and was a really unique place to stay. The villa had beautiful lush green surroundings and very thoughtful little touches throughout that made it very homely. The bed was super comfortable and it was amazing to wake up in such a peaceful environment. We also had dinner there one evening and it was an incredible home-cooked meal cooked by Bola's wife. It was so delicious. Make sure to book their cooking class if you do stay as the food was AH-mazing. They also had three gorgeous dogs that gave us lots of love and cuddles during our stay. Aside from all the amazing things about the villa and space itself, what really made the stay special was Bola himself. He is so warm, friendly and helpful and we became fast friends, having long interesting conversations about life and just about everything else! We can't wait to come back the next time we are in Sri Lanka.

Great owner! Really enjoyed that chat with him. Food was nice as well. Surrounded by nature and jungle. Great place if you want to get away from Ella city center.

For the price we expected a little more comfort and just a generally better condition of the room.
