Shambala Retreat – Villa in Ella with Mountain & Waterfall Views Shambala Retreat Ella is a peaceful two-bedroom villa with panoramic views of the mountains and Ravana Falls, just 9 km from Ella town. Guests often describe it as “an oasis of peace with unforgettable views.” The villa is designed for comfort and simplicity: extra-large beds with mosquito nets, private bathrooms with hot showers, hammocks, and cozy natural décor. A fresh Sri Lankan & Western breakfast is included daily, and home-style dinners are available on request. Whether you are relaxing with a book, meditating, or stargazing from the terrace, Shambala Retreat is perfect for couples, families, and small groups seeking seclusion while staying close to Ella’s main attractions.

I’m Rumesh, your local host.. Along with our friendly caretaker (living separately on-site), I provide warm Sri Lankan hospitality — from insider travel tips and arranging tuk-tuks to preparing delicious meals. Guests often highlight the personal touch, genuine care, and memorable food that make their stay special. While I’m available for support, your privacy is always respected.

Shambala Retreat is surrounded by lush greenery, tea fields, birdlife, and monkeys in the trees. The balcony overlooks Ravana Falls, and the villa is close to some of Ella’s most popular sights: Ella Rock (hiking & viewpoints) Little Adam’s Peak Nine Arches Bridge Ella town (cafés, train station, shops — 20–30 minutes by tuk-tuk) The final 3 km to the villa is a scenic rural road, best enjoyed by tuk-tuk. We arrange arrival pickup from Ella town or the junction, making the journey simple and part of the adventure.
