Guest Reviews
- Sonia (10/5): -
- Johanna (10/5): Unser Aufenthalt war einfach unvergesslich! Absolut empfehlenswert ist es Touren über das Hostel zu buchen (Sunrise hike -
- Jessica (7/5): -
- Abigail (9/5): Amazing jungle experience in central Ella - Amazing location!! Right amongst the nature but close to Ella town and some great restaurants.
Facilities were great considering the remote location - comfortable bed and hot shower. Hosts were very attentive and organised breakfast and laundry. Only one plug socket so bring adaptor.
Monkeys can be overwhelming.
- Veary (8/5): Would stay again in a heartbeat - Rustic charm - if you are looking for an off the beaten highway with the most awesome balcony - it is cool! All rooms need a fan! Otherwise exceptionally fun
- Aradhna (8/5): -
- Lidia (8/5): Belle expérience - Petit déjeuner sur le balcon et personnel très réactif Difficile à trouver l’entrée et endroits pas bien entretenus et accès aux chambres difficiles
- DEBORAH (9/5): We loved the lodge. From our balcony we saw amazing birds, deer, squirrels and monkeys! - Very welcoming helpful staff. Amazing views from the balcony. Brilliant experience and worth the price.
- Klara (10/5): Schönes großes Zimmer und nettes Personal. - Umsonst tee und Kaffee wann immer wir wollten. Sehr nettes und hilfsbereites Personal. Großes Zimmer mit bequemen Bett. Alles gut :)
- Joseph (8/5): Een speciaal en rustig verblijf en toch wel dichtbij de gezellige drukte van Ella. - De rust.
- SOUVAARNA (9/5): Close to Nature - A cosy cottage overlooking the nature , the view from the balcony is superb , we could see the train as well from the balcony . Room is adapted for chilly weather. Hosts were always fast to respond to any queries and help on WhatsApp. NA
- Nathalie (10/5): - What a special place! It’s a luxury to sit on the terrace and enjoy breakfast watching the wild life, monkeys, birds, deers in the jungle
The lodge/wooden structures are really nicely made: charming, spacious and comfortable. You hear the outside, be it the restaurant playing music or the frogs making sound. For us it was perfect as it offers an immersive experience in nature and is also close to everything. The service was top and we were really well taken care of.
- Esmee (4/5): -
- Muriel (10/5): Un endroit au top et très bien placé. Tout est génial ! - Un endroit au top et très bien placé. Tout est génial ! Ashen est un hôte formidable et de très bon conseil. Le matin, voir les singes est juste exceptionnel. Nous avons même prolongé notre séjour pour 3 nuits.
- Bernard (9/5): Prachtig verblijf bij centrum Ella - Super lieve mensen en een prachtig uitzicht! Toen we aankwamen zagen we gelijk wat apen zitten :)
Het treinspoor is 50 meter lopen.
Het ontbijt op ons balkon maakte het verblijf compleet.
- Bastiaan (8/5): - Romantisch gelegen en leuke toegang tot de kamer. Mooi balkon. Leuke, natuurlijke inrichting met veel hout. In avond/nacht en vroege ochtend veel natuurgeluiden. Toch dicht bij het centrum en station. Goede warme douche Bovenal zeer fijn en vriendelijk hotelpersoneel. Af en toe housemuziek van het naastgelegen restaurant. Gewekt worden door n familie apen om 6 uur in de ochtend.
- Nicola (8/5): Very unique experience. It felt damp inside but didn’t spoil it. Lots of monkeys around. Lovely staff and nice breakfast - Very unique Felt damp inside
- Irene (7/5): - Pretty big room and clean. Easy communication with the staff who were very helpful. Much noise from nearby restaurants (well past 12pm). Metal roof with monkeys passing over it constantly which makes for a bit of a scary experience. We weren’t able to have breakfast outside due to all the monkeys vigilantly watching.
- Antoine (10/5): Des notre arrivée où nous avons rencontrés Ashen qui nous a fait un accueil 5 étoiles. Visite et explications du lieu et - L’accueil, l’emplacement, la communication avec l’hôtel.
- Roman (10/5): -
- Krzysiek (10/5): Fajne miejsce do nocowania z przyjaciółmi. - Bardzo fajne miejsce. Obok jest salon masażu oraz bar. Bardzo blisko do centrum. Nieopodal znajduje się piwny wiadukt kolejowy. Jeden domek, który zajmowaliśmy, nie posiadał okien, był „ślepy”.
- Yanick (10/5): - Wir hatten einen wirklich tollen Aufenthalt in diesem Hotel. Besonders hervorheben möchten wir das Service-Team – die Mitarbeiter waren mehr als super, unglaublich freundlich, aufmerksam und jederzeit hilfsbereit. Man hat sich vom ersten Moment an willkommen gefühlt.
Die Zimmer waren sehr gemütlich und sauber, sodass man sich richtig entspannen konnte. Auch das Frühstück war hervorragend – große Auswahl, frisch und sehr lecker.
Die Landschaft rund um das Hotel ist wunderschön und lädt zum Genießen ein. Ein absolutes Highlight war der Balkon – die Affen in der Umgebung zu beobachten war einfach sensationell und ein unvergessliches Erlebnis.
Auch das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis war wirklich gut. Wir würden jederzeit wiederkommen und können das Hotel nur weiterempfehlen!
- Andrej (10/5): Jungle stay very close to Ella center - You sleep with a jungle view in a quiet location, but still close to the center of Ella. The balcony, the breakfast, the welcoming and super nice hosts, the wooden room, everything was perfect. Would like to visit again. Please add a hairdresser so we can dry our clothes, since the humidity is high.
- Sue (10/5): Jungle experience in the middle of Ella - Quirky, rustic cabin on the side of the steep hill. Amazing outlook onto the “jungle”. Wildlife all around with birds & monkeys to watch all day. Felt like a being in a safari hut, especially with the wildlife noises at night.
The staff were fantastic. Helped with everything. There are only 3 cabins so no reception - everything is by WhatsApp which works perfectly.
Location is in the middle of Ella but up a big hill. Approaching it along the railway line is much easier than the steep hill walk. Nothing. It’s basic but lovely
- Kurt (10/5): Alles perfekt! - Die Unterkunft ist eine Oase mitten im Dschungel. Super freundliches Personal!
Frühstück wird auf die Terrasse gebracht, super lecker!
Wir buchten eine Tour zum Ella Rock mit Ashen! Freundlicher und informativer geht es nicht! Wir kommen gerne wieder!
- Sofia (8/5): - Persone molto gentile, il Wi-Fi funzionava molto bene Struttura completamente immersa nella giungla ma comunque non ne vale la pena.
Strada per arrivare non illuminata e distante dalla città.
- Inés (10/5): Un sitio con encanto y personal amabilísimo - La ubicación, está muy bien situado en medio del bosque, lo que lo hace muy pintoresco y acogedor. El personal muy amable y eficaz, me equivoqué con la reserva y reservé para el día siguiente, en un momento me lo resolvieron y nos prepararon una habitación rápidamente. Fueron muy amables y atentos. Un desayuno buenísimo.
- Erwin (9/5): Leuke plek net uit de drukte van de hoofdstraat, vriendelijk en zeer behulpzaam personeel - De ligging en het uitzicht Redelijk vochtig binnen waardoor het wat klam kan aanvoelen
- Thodoris (6/5): -
- Guest (8/5): - bella posizione. casa sull’albero caratteristica un mezzo alla foresta. bisogna adattarsi però è una bella esperienza
- Chesley (7/5): -
- Lynne (8/5): At one with nature close to the centre of Ella. - It was so rustic and at one with nature. Beautiful breakfast on the balcony though alas we saw no monkeys! Easy walk up the hill and then along the train tracks to get to town. I had trouble accessing the room as I have bad knees and there were very steep pin even steps. No fan in room and due to mosquitoes they recommend closing the windows. Little water pressure in the shower- but hey it is an eco lodge!
- Sofia (1/5): - Niente.
Hanno cancellato la prenotazione per evitare una brutta recensione.
Hanno chiesto più soldi rispetto al cambio(ladri).
Facciamo ricorso tramite Booking.
- Arantxa (10/5): -
- RANA (7/5): -
- Nicola (10/5): -
- Tanja (5/5): - Die Aussicht war top mitten im Dschungel und frühstücken mit den Affen. Das Bett war groß und bequem! Das Personal ist nur per waths app erreichbar. Es war sehr laut da gleich neben an eine Bauszelle ist.
- Vincent (8/5): Super fijn! Geen airco, maar is niet nodig, want het koelt lekker af. - Hoe het eruit ziet! Alles van hout! Super!! Steile weg naar boven, maar daar stel je je op in. Dus prima!
- Zaccardi (8/5): -
- Jonathan (10/5): - Les lieux, la chambre avec vue sur la jungle par sa terrasse (monkeys au réveil 🐒 )
Paradisiaque... Attention quelques marches en bois de la passerelle (pour accéder a la chambre) ne sont plus fixés d'un côté.
On en a parlé, ils avaient l'air au courant...
- Elisa (10/5): SUPER RECOMMENDED - Incredibile stay!!! The wooden house with balcony is awesome, good breakfast on the balcony and very good service! Located in the nature but close to city center. The guys spontaneously decided to upgrade us the room without asking! Wonderful, super recommended !!!
- MIGUEL (10/5): souriant et authentique - Plongé dans la nature, nous avons pu prendre notre petit déjeuner avec les singes
- Giulia (8/5): -
- ViaggiALE (8/5): - Alloggio molto carino e particolare, che affaccia sulla foresta. Camera di buone dimensioni, bagno essenziale. C'è una zanzariera sul letto molto utile vista la posizione. Pulizia buona. Colazione buona sul terrazzino circondata dalla natura. Di notte servirebbe qualche luce in più visto i gradini non perfetti che portano alla camera. Il personale gentile e disponibile. La struttura si trova a pochi min a piedi dal centro ma x raggiungerla c'è una bella salita da fare, ma super fattibile. Nel momento in cui accetti solo contanti devi essere anche in grado di poter dare il resto. È il cliente che deve decidere se lasciare la mancia e non deve essere un obbligo, anche se si tratta di poche centinaia di rupie.
- Olivier (10/5): Cabanes dans la nature à 2 pas du centre! - De chouettes cabanes dans la nature juste à côté du centre de Ella.
L’emplacement était parfait!
Nous avons aimé l’accueil, y compris des singes. Ils nous ont fait un beau numéro! 😁
Très bon petit déjeuner!
Je recommande Rien!
- Aline (10/5): - L'accès au lodge par un petit pont nous met dans l'ambiance avant de profiter de la jungle du balcon. Jolie salle de bain.
A peine couchés, lumière éteinte, nous avons entendu un bruit près de nos affaires : un écureuil était venu nous rendre visite 🐿️😉 A savoir : L'écolodge est situé un peu en hauteur, il faut monter la ruelle, mais cela en vaut la peine.
- Sofia (10/5): - Staff very friendly
- Caroline (7/5): Leuk voor één nachtje… - Het idee van een boomhut. En de jongens die alles regelen waren erg vriendelijk. En de ligging is dichtbij het centrum (wel effe een klimmetje om terug te komen, maar wel te doen). De geluiden en de herrie. Verkeer / tuk tuk’s op het weggetje achterlangs + (house)muziek ergens vanuit de omgeving.
Het is uiteindelijk gewoon in de stad en niet in de natuur.
- Rick (6/5): Basic lodge met veel irritante apen. - De lodge bevindt zich op de heuvel, net buiten het drukke deel van Ella. Personeel is zeer vriendelijk en willen je overal mee helpen. Ze komen regelmatig vragen of je koffie of thee wil en zijn erg begaan. Lodge is erg basic. Het heeft eigenlijk geen faciliteiten. Er is geen receptie of bar/restaurant. In de kamer is maar 1 stopcontact aanwezig en de badkamer heeft absoluut geen luxe. Douchen kan onder een kleine straal lauw water. De lodge ligt op de heuvel in het groen en wordt geterroriseerd door apen en muggen. Het was bij ons niet mogelijk om rustig buiten te zitten en ook in de ochtend was het een hels kabaal als er tientallen apen op je balkon en het zinken dak rennen en springen. Een klamboe voor de muggen is aanwezig, al mag deze wel een keer uitgewassen worden. Mocht je van avontuur houden, dan is deze lodge zeker een aanrader!
- julie (10/5): -
- Ginevra (9/5): - We stayed for 2 nights in a very welcoming place, just 1 km walking distance from the city center. Perfect location to explore the area. The staff was extremely helpful, kind, and always smiling. Being in the heart of nature, you might come across some animals, but this is exactly what adds to the charm of the place. Overall, I highly recommend it to anyone looking for peace, great food, and genuine hospitality.
Excellent value for money. Highly recommended!
- francesca (6/5): - Atmosfera Pulizia
- Laura (9/5): Cabaña en el árbolcon encanto - La casa tiene mucho encanto.... Es grande y bonita! ideal el desayuno! Los mosquitos....Creo que se podría poner un incienso anti mosquitos antes de llegar al hotel.
- Lianne (9/5): Fantastisch - Alles was top! Personeel lief, locatie top! Ontbijt op het terras. Best gehorig, maar dat heb je met alles van hout.
- De lorenzo (9/5): Nature immersion - Amazing location and position with monkeys that come in the morning during breakfast. Kind staff!
- Fabrizio (9/5): Ottima esperienza, la struttura è pulita, la colazione è ottima e la vista dal balcone è bellissima. I ragazzi che la ge - Cordialità, colazione, pulizia, gentilezza dello staff. Vista bellissima e ottima esperienza. La posizione è buona, ma c’è una salita impegnativa da fare.
- Sabrina (9/5): SuperDschungelelebnis, wenn man bereit ist ein paar Abstriche beim Komfort zu machen - Tolles Affenerlebnis hautnah. Hütte liegt mit Blick auf dichten Dschungel. Super Frühstück. Tolles Personal, extrem bemüht. Lage gut, über steile Straße ca. 5 min zu Fuß in die City. Nebenan ist eine Baustelle, ein Haus wird neu gebaut, tagsüber laut.
- Chantal (8/5): Geweldig verblijf! - Top locatie! Heel eenvoudig maar prachtige lodge! Aapjes en eekhoorns in de jungle voor je neus! Was wel behoorlijke klim vanaf centrum. Niet ver maar wel even een work out!
- Julia (8/5): - De balkon is heel fijn! Ook lekker om daar ‘s ochtends te ontbijten. Het regent er wel vaak en dat maakt veel geluid op het dak…
- Sophie (10/5): -
- Fabian (10/5): Baumhaus mit Traumausblick und Herzensmenschen! - Jeder Gast bekommt sein eigenes kleines süßes Baumhaus, von dem aus man einen Blick in ein kleines Waldtal genießen kann. Die Affen lassen sich nicht lange auf sich warten - wunderschön!
Herausragend auch hier war das Personal! Taxiorga, Unternehmungsplanung u.v.m. wurde komplett übernommen. 10/10 in jeder Hinsicht! /

la stanza è carina, e il balconcino davanti molto carino con la foresta davanti. La pulizia buona per gli standard del posto. Posizione comoda in centro ad Ella, con una breve salita ripida per arrivare.
I ragazzi che lavorano lì cono accoglienti. Ci hanno consigliato una visita alla tea factory, a letteralmente 3min di distanza con tuktuk, chiedendoci 15€ a testa per trasporto più 1h30 di visita alla fabbrica, il cui ingresso costava soli 5/6€ ed è durata 30 minuti, senza visita alle piantagioni o attività interattive, solo spiegazione e visita alla fabbrica e assaggio veloce di te.
Consiglio di organizzare da soli, magari in un altro posto. e non affidarvi a loro.
Quando ho spiegato che secondo me non era un servizio di qualità come descritto non mi hanno dato spiegazione, ma solo il conto intero da pagare.
- Aleksandra (9/5): - Unglaublich freundliche und hilfsbereite Jungs, die dort arbeiten! Alle Anfragen wurden angenommen und zu unserer Zufriedenheit umgesetzt. Sauberes Zimmer und Bad. Preis-Leistungsverhältnis absolut in Ordnung. Man kann die Möglichkeit nutzen und sich abends leckeres sri lankanisches Abendessen zubereiten lassen. Unterkunft ist mitten in Ella und doch irgendwie einbisschen im Dschungel. Wer Dschungel-Abenteuer light sucht, ist hier richtig. Von der Unterkunft aus ist man direkt am Pfad zum Ella Rock. Zum Trubel der Stadt sind es ca. 5 Min den Berg runter zu Fuß. Nebenan ist eine Bar, die gefühlt die halbe Nacht laute Musik laufen lässt. Dadurch, dass man in einer Holzhütte schläft, kriegt man den Trubel mit. Ebenso sind die Tuktuks von der Straße bestens zu hören. Hierdurch wird man wieder daran erinnert, dass man nicht so richtig fernab vom Schuss ist. Von den Affen haben wir auch nichts mitbekommen, was schade war. Es wundert aber auch nicht bei dem Trubel der Bar nebenan.
- Marieke (10/5): Perfect getaway in Ella! - We loved this lodge in the nature, but close to the street with bars and restaurants. Good beds, nice shower and beautifuk view from the balcony. Staff was very helpful with suitcases and easy to reach for questions. We loved the breakfast with the monkeys in the morning. Woud totally recommend!
- Meike (8/5): Leuke ervaring vlakbij het centrum - Leuke ervaring. Goede locatie. Lekker bed. Lekker ontbijt. Vriendelijk personeel die ook onze tuktuk in ontvangst heeft genomen. Toen we laat aankwamen hadden ze ook eten voor ons klaarstaan. 'S ochtends wordt je om 06.00 door de apen gewekt omdat ze op het dakspringen die van ijzeren platen is gemaakt.
- Matthieu (9/5): A l’image de ce que je voulais - En pleine nature, sauvage et authentique - roots et appréciable
- Niall (5/5): Interesting, but very difficult to sleep - The view was great and we enjoyed the feel of the place in the trees. Near to town, bit away from the busy area. Overall interesting, but there were some negatives. There is a list to be honest. The problems in order;
- The monkeys are great to look at but both nights they started jumping on the roof and running about from 5 to 7am. You have no idea how loud this is on a bare metal roof. You had no chance of sleeping.
- As others have said, very dim lighting, so difficult to see inside
- Building work next door starting at 7.30, which was very noisy
- Nose from tuktuks revving up the very steep hill and revelers returning home late is noticeable until about 1.30am.
- Vanna (7/5): - Gli spazi ampi,la posizione e la vicinanza alla giungla Andrebbe segnalato ai clienti il possibile pericolo se si fa colazione all’esterno ,rappresentato dalle scimmie e di non dare loro da mangiare
- Michelle (8/5): Beautiful view, great staff - The property is very clean and has a beautiful balcony looking right into the jungle. The food cooked was wonderful and the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. There was some building works happening next door, which wasn’t too bad, but it went on for a large part of the night and again early in the morning.
- Vima (6/5): -
- Essa (8/5): Unique experienc - What an incredible place! Staying here was such a unique experience, we absolutely loved having monkeys right on our balcony and outside our door. They were super friendly and didn’t bother us at all. In fact, the monkeys were the main reason we chose this treehouse, and it totally lived up to our expectations!
The location is also excellent: just about 250 meters from the lively town center, full of restaurants and shops. The owner and staff were very helpful and eager to arrange anything for us. You can book all kinds of activities directly with them, like cooking classes, safaris, and tours to the main highlights. Keep in mind that these are a bit more expensive than booking elsewhere, but we went ahead with it and the safari to the elephant park was 100% worth it!
You can also rent a scooter from them for $13 a day, which we did and definitely recommended. All communication goes through WhatsApp and it works really well: fast replies and everything quickly arranged. Breakfast (available for an extra charge) was also truly fantastic. The room itself is spacious but very basic. No fridge, no kettle, just a bed, one set of towels and a single toilet roll. It was also very damp and humid inside, and unfortunately the bedding had an unpleasant smell. Also, be aware that the location is up a very steep hill: a 14% incline, which might be challenging for some.
Lastly, the owner will try to overcharge you, so be due to double-check your bill and always ask for specification.
That said, the magical experience of seeing monkeys up close from our balcony made it all worth it! And it makes the stay in Ella so much more unique!
- martina (8/5): - Bellissima struttura in mezzo al verde, bella camera molto spaziosa, atmosfera rilassante. Accoglienza ottima molto gentile il ragazzo che ci ha aiutato. Forse si potrebbe migliorare un po’ la cena, veramente tanto tanto speziata per noi occidentali è veramente dura.
- sonja (6/5): Sehr einfach - Personal war sehr bemüht. Nah am Zentrum, nur 10 min Fußweg. Gutes WiFi. Hütte mit Doppelbett hatte keine Fensterscheiben, Bad sehr einfach.
Frühstück und Abendessen nicht besonders. Affen auf der Terrasse beim Frühstück ziemlich übergriffig.
Nur temporär - direkt nebenan superlaute Baustelle bis in den Abend hinein.
- alessandro (10/5): Magnifico - La posizione è magnifica, camere e bagno grandi
Terrazza con vista foresta dove poter fare colazione o cenare. Titolare sempre disponibile e staff gentilissimo e attento Organizzazione dei tour
- Heidi (10/5): - Great location, such a secret hideaway and change from real life. So simple but very clean. The monkeys were a fantastic experience. N/A
- Bart (9/5): Basic verblijf in jungle lodge met uitstekend personeel - Je krijgt echt een jungle gevoel in de lodge tussen het groen en de apen. Communicatie via app werkt uitstekend. Personeel is erg hulpvaardig. Helemaal top. Afstand tot hoofdstraat viel tegen, lijkt veel meer dan de gestelde 250 meter. Wij zijn geen hikers en hebben steeds de tuktuk terug genomen. Zeker een aanrader met bagage!
Het had prettig geweest als er een waterkoker was geweest, de kamer is extreem basic
- Veronika (6/5): Leider nicht ganz das was wir wollten, sehr schöne Hütte aber nicht so idyllisch wie gehofft. - Super tolle Hütte. Warme Dusche, Wifi funktioniert und Dusche ist warm. Alles sehr sauber. Ungefähr 10 Minuten Fußweg in die Stadt Ella über einen sehr steilen Weg aber normal für Ella.
Tolles Affenerlebnis morgens! Wichtig zu wissen bevor man bucht momentan ist dort eine Baustelle und es ist sehr laut. Wir wurden um halb acht morgens vom Baulärm geweckt. Abends hört man Party Musik und ab und zu rauscht der Zug ein paar hundert Meter entfernt durch. Leider wird das Dschungelfeeling durch diese ganzen Lärmquellen deutlich gemindert. Und man darf sich nicht erschrecken wenn die Affen morgens um 7 auf dem Wellblechdach Lärm machen!
- Latha (8/5): - Great location Access to the rooms was difficult. Have to climb down uneven stone steps.
- Lena (9/5): - Absolutly amazing view into the trees with all the Monkeys to watch. The location is great: It is near the center of Ella, but far away from the noise of the bars and the party. Really delicious breakfast and absoluty engaged staff!
- Esther (7/5): Locatie - Snelle reacties en behulpzaam personeel. Mooie locatie tussen de bomen met eekhoorntjes en apen. Heel lief nog een jurk nagestuurd die ik was vergeten. Pad naar de kamer was eng en lastig te belopen, helemaal met regenen. Lakens waren niet helemaal schoon en douchekop bleef niet in de houder staan. Beetje donker in de kamer.
- Sara (10/5): Consigliamo! - Bellissima struttura, immersa nella natura.
Abbiamo avuto la fortuna di avere davanti al nostro terrazzino delle stupende scimmiette e in giro per il lodge anche una piccola leoncina (vedi foto).
Staff molto accogliente!
- Mary-Ellen (8/5): Monkeys, frogs, and mongoose in the bush - This is a very rustic property set in the bush in a great location only a few minutes into Ella. It is very basic but nice and spacious. The staff made us the best coffee. There is no fridge. If you are a light sleeper, the monkeys on the roof may keep you awake. There is no view.
- Mikaela (10/5): Cozy and peaceful space in the Ella hills - It was the coziest property! Amazing falling asleep to the rain and having breakfast with the monkeys. The accommodation is basic but gorgeous. The staff are amazing with fantastic communication and organised everything for us. We did the cooking class and tea factory tour with them and they were amazing! The best thing was their kitten who was a nice reminder of our pets at home. Can’t wait to come back and visit again!
- Cat (10/5): -
- WANQING (10/5): - First time to live in a wood house, is so natural, it was raining that afternoon, the view is so beautiful, there are so many monkeys on the trees, not even we don’t mind they stole our breakfast, but also we like to feed them. We love the host’s little cat too. Watch out monkeys, don’t let them go inside the room, they will stole your stuff
- Stefanie (8/5): - Die Ecolodge liegt wirklich mitten im Dschungel, Affengarantie! Wobei diese auch etwas aufdringlich werden können 😉
Das Personal ist super freundlich und sehr hilfsbereit. Alles war gut, ausser die Beleuchtung auf dem oberen Teil des Weges.
- marlot (9/5): - This was our favorite stay of the entire trip! Not only because of the beautiful cabin we stayed in, but especially thanks to the two friends working there, who made our time truly special.
We went on several hikes, but the most memorable one was with one of the staff members. We reached the viewpoint first, chatting all the way, and shared the stunning views together. A magical moment, great company, and beautiful nature. Can’t recommend it enough!
- Edwin (8/5): - Warm water
- APL (10/5): Geweldige “natuurlijke” plek om te overnachten - Super relaxte stay gevoel van “in het oerwoud” Prima ontbijt en super aardige beheerder. Ik zou aanbevelen als je rustig wil zitten in een gezellige stadje. Alle winkeltjes en restaurants zijn aan te lopen.
- Merel (8/5): Mooie plek - Ideale locatie (vlakbij het “centrum” en op 3 minuten ernaast zit een hotel met prachtig zwembad waar je een entreekaartje voor kunt kopen), mooi uitzicht op aapjes en in de natuur, goed ontbijt! Als je op zoek bent naar een accomodatie en niet per se contact wil met de host dan is dit prima. Goede communicatie via whatsapp. Wil je echter meer kletsen met een host dan leent deze plek zich daar minder voor.
- Ben (10/5): Great for a couple of nights. - A beautiful place to stay in Ella. Staff were really attentive and friendly, even giving me a lift to the train station.
Close enough to the centre of town to be accessible, but far enough to be quiet and get lost in the middle of nature. Lots of amazing birds to watch, and the macaques woke me up by partying on the roof one morning. An experience I won't forget.
- Jade (9/5): - Quoi de mieux qu’un petit déjeuner sur votre balcon avec les singes avant de visiter Ella ? Cette cabane dans les arbres est exactement ce qu’annonce les photos et le personnel est très serviable et aimable
On recommande
- Narold (8/5): -
- leonore (9/5): -
- Ellie (10/5): - Really beautiful spot, feels really in the middle of nowhere but really close to the town. Room was big and nice bathroom. Nice food. Staff really helpful.
- Sebastian Deb. (10/5): - Good place to get jungle feelings. We could see a lot of animals. 5min walk to city center. The cooking class offered by the hotel is a bit overpriced for what you get comparing to others. But you get a lovely local experience by a mother and his son, who are willing to give you a good time. Communication via WhatsApp.
