Situated in Ella, 4.9 km from Demodara Nine Arch Bridge, Tantra Ella Lodge features accommodation with a terrace, free WiFi, room service, and a 24-hour front desk. With mountain views, this accommodation provides a balcony. The best part is the excellent location and the host. Anjelo went out of his way to make sure we were comfortable. He is a very charming guy. It was great to relax on the patio outside the bedroom and read and listen to the birds. A very unique experience. It is easy to walk to Ella for dinner and walk to beautiful areas like Adams Peak and The Nine Arch bridge from Tantra Ella Lodge.

Located 1.9 km from Demodara Nine Arch Bridge and 1.8 km from Little Adam's Peak, Barn Hills provides accommodation in Ella.

Ella Spice Garden is 3.6 km from the lodge, while Ella Railway Station is 3.6 km away. Mattala Rajapaksa International Airport is 87 km from the property. Our stay at Ella Barn Hills was absolutely wonderful! Finding accommodation with such a breathtaking view at this price is truly rare. The owner was incredibly kind, welcoming, and attentive, always ensuring our needs were met. Her husband was also fantastic—whenever we needed a ride to the town center, he offered transport at non-touristy prices, making our stay even more convenient. One of the highlights was the possibility to get drinking water directly from the property, which was a great bonus. The breakfast, lovingly prepared even in the early morning hours, was simply delicious, and enjoying it with a view of the Nine Arch Bridge made it even more special. Additionally, they were very helpful in arranging transport to farther locations and giving great local recommendations. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for accommodation in Ella. You won’t be disappointed!

NETHSARA cottage features mountain views, free WiFi and free private parking, located in Ella, 6.4 km from Demodara Nine Arch Bridge.

Guests at the lodge can enjoy an Asian or a vegetarian breakfast.

A terrace is available on site and hiking can be enjoyed within close proximity of NETHSARA cottage. Nethsara cottage is absolutely gorgeous - beautifully decorated, spotlessly clean and in a rural, quiet spot in the hills above Ella. Delicious breakfasts are served on the balcony that has amazing views of the valley and the Mahamevnawa Monastery in the distance. Madusha is a lovely host, organising tuktuks on our request. We were so sad to leave and couldn’t recommend it more!

Set in Ella, 7.1 km from Demodara Nine Arch Bridge, " YOLO " LOVELY COTTAGE offers accommodation with a garden, free WiFi, room service, and a 24-hour front desk. Located 45 km from Hakgala Botanical Garden, the property provides a terrace and free private parking.

Both a bicycle rental service and a car rental service are available at the lodge. Our hosts went out of their way to make sure we were looked after. The cottage is basic but excellent for the price and has everything you need. The view is spectacular and quiet, as we did not want to be in Ella central which is too noisy. The cottage is an eight minute tuk tuk ride to town, with the host lifting us everywhere, plus took us to the start of the sunrise hike. And they made us the best breakfast in sri lanka. Also don't miss walking down to Bees Honey for a meal.

Situated 6.1 km from Demodara Nine Arch Bridge, Cloudy Hill Cottage offers a terrace, a restaurant and air-conditioned accommodation with a balcony and free WiFi.

Guests at the lodge can enjoy an Asian breakfast. We had a fantastic time here. A lovely place just outside the busy center of Ella. The rooms are fantastic and have great views of the area and from your bed you can see the sun rise in the morning ! But above all, the owners are fantastic. Really enjoyed the cooking class as well. It hurt to leave.

Located in Ohiya, surrounded by mountains in the Horton Plains Range, Hill Safari - Tea Estate Villa mainly serves Sri Lankan cuisine. It features a shared lounge area surrounded by tea estates/mountains. The property boasts an excellent location for hiking and trekking. We loved our stay at the Hill Safari. The views were spectacular, the staff made us feel very comfortable and welcome and the room was everything we needed. The food was also delicious and they gave us many new year treats to try. They recommended some great walking routes, talking you through the route with a hand drawn map!
