Samadhi Nature Resort

I had a wonderful stay at this beautifully designed hotel—every corner reflects a thoughtful aesthetic that instantly makes you feel at peace. The interiors are tastefully done, blending comfort with elegance, and the surrounding environment only adds to the charm. What truly made the experience special was Samantha, the owner. She went out of her way to ensure everything was perfect, always available with a warm smile and helpful suggestions. From local tips to personalized care, her hospitality truly stood out and made our stay memorable. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a stay that’s both serene and personal. Thank you, Samantha, for making us feel so welcome!

The breakfast here is something you’ll remember. Traditional Sri Lankan dishes made fresh and served in the garden. The coconut roti and dhal were the best I had in Ella. Couldn’t ask for a better location. Just a short walk to both Little Adam’s Peak and Nine Arches Bridge. We even caught the train passing by at the bridge, which was magical. The room was clean, cozy, and had everything we needed. Loved relaxing on the balcony with a cup of tea after hiking. This place was perfect for a quiet couple’s getaway. Surrounded by nature, with breathtaking views and just a short walk to all the scenic spots in Ella.

I had a wonderful stay at Samadhi Nature Resort. The location is perfect just a short walk to Nine Arches Bridge, Little Adam’s Peak, and other scenic spots in Ella. I loved starting my mornings with their delicious traditional Sri Lankan breakfast fresh, flavorful, and served in such a calm setting.The atmosphere was so relaxing, and after a day of exploring, I even treated myself to an Ayurvedic spa nearby, which was the perfect way to unwind. If you're looking for a peaceful stay close to Ella’s best attractions, this is the place!

Excellent breakfast. Very helpful suggestions for walks, activities to do and places to eat. Lovely big family room with balcony to relax on with a lovely view.

I had the chance to stay at Samadhi Nature Resort in Ella during the April New Year season, and overall, it was a pleasant and peaceful experience. The room was simple but clean and well-kept. The bed was comfortable, and the room had everything I needed for a short stay. I especially appreciated the natural views right from the window sounds of birds and the cool Ella breeze was a lovely bonus. The staff was warm, helpful, and very polite, even though it was the busy New Year season. They made sure I was comfortable and were always available to help with directions or requests. Their hospitality felt genuine and added to the charm of the place. The meals were freshly prepared, with a homely, local touch. For next vacation too I am planning to visit here. Anybody who looking for peaceful environment I highly recommend this place.

Friendly owner who served us a wonderful home cooked breakfast. Neat and clean rooms with plenty of lounge chairs in the shared balcony. Close to little Adam’s hiking point

Water pressure was very low in bathroom to take shower. No exhaust fan also.

Samantha is the most amazing host. Her home is a little oasis in beautiful grounds. Hornbills will join you for breakfast! The house is a few minutes tuktuk ride from the village centre and transport is very easy. There are various bars and restaurants in easy reach. Rooms are basic, but do the job, and perfect for a short stay to explore Ella.

Nothing really. Room and bathroom is fairly basic, but what I was expecting for the price.

The calm environment

Located between the Nine Arches Bridge and Little Adam’s Peak, this is an ideal location for a morning trek. The hostess is truly amazing and hardworking. The breakfast, cleanliness of the rooms—everything is excellent
