The accommodation is beautifully situated right next to rice paddies and surrounded by nature. We received a warm welcome from the family. The entire stay felt like being guests of friends. The typical Sri Lankan cuisine and the direct interaction with the host family were a special experience. Thank you so much!

What a great homestay, tucked away in the Sri Lankan hill terraces. Waking up to amazing view of the valleys and sound of birds. Great hikes nearby. Lovely family hosting us with friendliness and great food.

We picked Nethsara because it was a family run accommodation just outside the centre. We thought it would be friendly, peaceful with great food. We also wanted to meet and support local people rather than just stay in a big hotel. Nethsara was this and much more. The room was spotless, had a great shower, a fridge and a kettle. It had a fan though we didn't need it. Madusha was friendly and hospitable. She cooked a great Sri Lankan breakfast which was so big we had enough fruit to eat in the evening. Upon request, she made us dial and hoppers. She also did our washing for a good price. She put us in touch with a lovely lad who became our tuk-tuk driver for the duration ( he charged a very fair rate and can be trusted to give you a price that undercuts other local drivers- just go with him. He is called Kavi) The view is really beautiful and you can see Ella Temple in the distance-- go, it is fabulous.

This place is very good. Centrally located and walking distance from main attractions (I didn’t took a tuk tuk in Ella to go anywhere) but not in the center of the busy strip of the town. The breakfast was very good, the room clean and comfortable, and the toilet modern. The owner and the staff were also very nice and made everything to make my stay comfortable. I recommend this place if you stay in Ella.

We enjoyed our stay and wished we had more time to spend in Wellawaya and at River Cottage. I recommend a refreshing bath in the river in the morning.

Our stay at River Lodge was very pleasant. The room was clean, spacious, comfy bed & shower. You can hear the river from the rooms and restaurant. The local Sri Lankan food was really tasty. The owner and his colleagues are very friendly and made us feel like home. In the morning we took bath in the river and lay in the grass under the trees to read a book. The room is very cheap for the quality of the stay. We really recommend staying at River Lodge!

I am very glad I have found this place. The owner is a warm hearted man that not even introduced me to his family and invited me to their home but has also been very helpful with organizing my trip. He even brought me to the bus and sightseeing spots without expecting tip. The hotel itself is beautiful and lies directly next to a nice river where you can go swimming. I had the best dinner here. The garden is charming! Cannot recommend this place enough!
