The most incredible view over the valley from the balcony, where you can sit to watch the sunrise. The family is so welcoming and cooks delicious Sri Lankan breakfasts, as well as dinners on request (for only 1000RS / person). For breakfast, you can choose a selection of coconut pancakes, coconut roti with dhal, omelettes, hoppers, fresh fruit and toast with jam. They offer tea and coffee throughout the day, laundry for a very cheap price and even arranged our tuktuk into town. I felt so well cared for from start to finish, thank you!

Lovely little hideaway. The owner kindly arranged for a tuk tuk to collect us from the train station.The cottage was so homely and well equipped with everything you might need. We loved the veranda where you could relax and enjoy the quiet view down to Ella. It was really cool to see the trains coming along the line as well ( there aren't that many trains!) The owners wife cooked us dinner and breakfast - both meals were traditional Sri Lankan and really delicious. This property is a real gem if you like an authentic and home from home experience.

Everything about this place is AMAZING. Located in the middle of private tea plantation, offers proper privacy and pure joy. Every detail in this place is a high level, from bathroom, comfort of the bed, amenities, insect repellents, softness of towels, ambient light… Any meal you have is a room service and food is stunning. Host and staff are fantastic. They will lead you through every single detail of the property. Highly recommended!!!

We had such a beautiful and memorable stay at this homestay. The host family were truly awesome—so kind, welcoming, and incredibly accommodating. They even allowed us to explore their paddy fields and experience harvesting fresh vegetables, which made our stay extra special and authentic. The homestay itself is very relaxing, surrounded by nature, and perfectly located right in front of a peaceful tea plantation. Waking up to such calming views was a highlight of our trip. A special thanks to Lahiru, who went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and felt at home. His hospitality and warmth made our experience unforgettable. We highly recommend this homestay to anyone looking for peace, nature, and genuine local hospitality. 🌿✨

I had a wonderful stay at one of the best houses in Sri Lanka. The place is beautiful with a peaceful environment, and the food was excellent, especially the breakfast with fresh local fruits. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. The room was large, the bed was very comfortable, and everything was clean and tidy, which made the stay very relaxing. The house is located very close to Ella city less than 10 minutes away and it’s easy to find affordable taxi and 24-hour tuk-tuk services. This place gave me unforgettable memories, and I definitely want to come again. I highly recommend this house for families and couples looking for a relaxing and enjoyable stay.

I had an absolutely fantastic stay at this hotel. From the moment I arrived, the service was impeccable. The staff were incredibly welcoming, professional, and always went out of their way to make sure I was comfortable. everyone was friendly and attentive without being intrusive. The accommodation itself was top-notch—clean, spacious, and thoughtfully designed. Every detail, from the bedding to the amenities, reflected a commitment to quality and comfort.

We stayed one night at The Palace Eco Cottage in Ella and absolutely loved it. The cottage sits high up in the hills, and the view over the valley and surrounding landscape is simply stunning—one of those places where you just stop and take it all in. The room was very spacious, spotless, and felt incredibly peaceful. We would recommend it for the setting alone, but what truly makes this place special is the owner. She is such a dedicated, warm, and genuinely friendly person, and you can feel her attention to detail in everything—from the rooms to the food. We had an incredible breakfast with eggs, fresh vegetables, fruits, and delicious sweet treats. Honestly, it was one of the best breakfasts we had during our entire trip in Sri Lanka. She also offered us lunch and dinner—completely free of charge—which was unbelievably kind. We had already made plans in town, so we didn’t get to try it, but if breakfast was any indication, it must be amazing as well. A real highlight was the family’s generosity in offering to drive us to Ella town in their tuk tuk whenever we needed, again free of charge. It made everything so easy and added such a personal touch to the stay. All in all, we can’t recommend The Palace Eco Cottage enough. A beautiful place with incredible hospitality—if you’re coming to Ella, this is truly a wonderful spot to stay.

Everything was great! The family was lovely and prepared an amazing breakfast and lunch for us; one of the best food we ate in Sri Lanka! The room was spacious and clean. Ella can be quite hectic, so it was nice to have a accomodation a bit further out in nature where you could relax. You can even spot some monkeys. You can easily walk towards the town following the traintracks, which is around 15/20 min walking. The family is amazing and really want you to have a lovely time! We definitely enjoyed our stay here!
