Everything! Nadee and her husband put so much effort to make your stay as comfortable as possible. She cooks delicious and is always quick to help. Her husband takes you anywhere at anytime with the tuktuk. Best heartwarming stay & breakfast we had in Sri Lanka! We would highly recommend and thank them for making it such a wonderful stay!

Lush in Ella is a brand new venue and a true hidden gem in the middle of the jungle. Yet it is very close to the center of the town. The owner Saman and her husband made us feel very special, especially pampering us with delicious homemade breakfasts. The room, bathroom, and balcony are very clean, the Internet works well, The washroom is spacious.

Sri Lankan Breakfast. Brilliant location. 5 minute walk into main town and train station along the train tracks. Very clean, spacious room. Beautiful view of Ella rock and the valley below. Friendly owners, one is a guide for Ella rock and considerably cheaper than online prices.
