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. This will be the best stay during your Sri Lanka trip. The most friendly hosts, they arranged everything for us without being pushy trying to sell their services. The breakfast was fantastic and served right on your balcony. The view is to die for and the balcony is perfectly suited to take it all in. Very clean and big room (it’s a lot better than the pictures show). We hope to come back here someday.

We even packed some food for the rest of the day. The host was lovely and helped us park and get around. Also, she was helpful with the tuk tuks. Definitely a place to come back to.

Located 49 km from Gregory Lake, Ella Breeze Homestay provides accommodation with a garden, a terrace and room service for your convenience. The lodge features both WiFi and private parking free of charge. For our group of six occupying three rooms, this was a wonderful place we truly enjoyed. It’s located outside Ella, but the 6 km walk along the railway is easy and filled with great views; the train ride is also a memorable experience and highly recommended. The accommodation feels authentic, with beautiful vistas and the gentle sounds of nature and local life. The host and his family are extremely friendly and helpful; we always felt safe and welcome. The owner even took us to a nearby tea factory for a fantastic private tour. Breakfast was a typical local meal; we apologise again to the host for not fully appreciating it. We highly recommend booking this place – every morning here is magical! 😊

Situated in Ella, 3.8 km from Demodara Nine Arch Bridge and 48 km from Hakgala Botanical Garden, Arawe Retreat features accommodation with free WiFi and a garden with a terrace and mountain views.

A car rental service is available at the lodge. Arawe Retreat isn’t just a hotel or an apartment—it’s paradise! The location is absolutely stunning, nestled in the heart of the jungle, offering serene tranquility with the soothing sounds of frogs and crickets at night, all while being within walking distance of the town center. Don’t feel like walking? Take advantage of the complimentary tuk-tuk service they provide. The accommodation is beautifully and thoughtfully designed, with attention to even the smallest details. The bathroom is a true delight to behold! And the food, the staff—everything is simply amazing. I had read many glowing reviews before arriving and had high expectations, but this surpassed them all. It might not be the cheapest option in the area, but the experience is worth every single penny!

Offering mountain views, a terrace and free WiFi, The Spice Lodge offers accommodation well situated in Ella, within a short distance of Demodara Nine Arch Bridge, Little Adam's Peak and Ella Spice Garden. We had an amazing experience with Kamal during our stay From the moment he picked us up, he went above and beyond to ensure our trip was special. Kamal guided us to Diyaluma Falls, and drove us to the Halpewatte Tea Factory, and.. He was incredibly kind, attentive to details, and always made sure we were comfortable. What really stood out was Kamal’s thoughtful planning—he shared invaluable tips to help us avoid crowds and enjoy peaceful moments at each destination. He patiently waited for us, gave us plenty of time to explore, and was never in a rush. His friendly attitude, local insights, and very reasonable pricing made the experience truly memorable. We highly recommend him to anyone visiting Ella! At the same time he was not pushing us to anything we did not want to do! We also did the cooking class they offer which was also amazing local experience.
