Lush in Ella is a brand new venue and a true hidden gem in the middle of the jungle. Yet it is very close to the center of the town. The owner Saman and her husband made us feel very special, especially pampering us with delicious homemade breakfasts. The room, bathroom, and balcony are very clean, the Internet works well, The washroom is spacious.

10000/10!! Clean, spacious, modern, hot shower, great water pressure, hair dryer, nail clipper, mosquito net private entrance. Terrace, breakfast. You have your own little jungle. This is the best homestay in all of Sri Lanka for us. Hosts are beautiful people who do so much for you but respect your privacy also. They make you the best breakfast in the world. One day we stayed in the mountains hiking whole day and texted them that we don't need breakfast and they made us dinner. They are the best possible people, we loved them so much! Thank you for everything, we will forever be grateful and will return one day for sure! We will recommend you to everyone!! We already miss this homestay and hosts 😊

The place is very lovely, located in the mountains of Ella (10 min Scooter/Tuck Tuck from Ella centre), which makes it a peaceful quite stay, away from the loud centre of Ella. The view from the room is fantastic and we could see monkeys, birds and squirrels from our balcony. The room itself was very clean and equipped with everything you need(fridge, kettle, Fan, hairdryer...). The team is taking very good care of all your needs and you truly feel like home. Especially thanks to Ruban and Dhanushka that helped us with all our extra requests and questions and were always very professional and with a big smile. They offer their own tuck tuck transport to Ella or all sightseeing places around for very fair prices as well as scooter rental. Also the breakfast was great and every morning we had a bit different variety of special dishes while having this great view over the valley of Ella. We wanted to stay 2 nights, but prolonged our stay as we loved it so much. Highly recommended!

    we were flabbergasted by the view at ella gap from the rooftop. crew was amazingly helpful. they drove our tuktuk up to the guesthouse because we didn’t dare to drive the steep hill. hilltop is away from the busy and loud mainstreet. superquiet allthough 5 minutes from the centre. our host gave us the perfect advice to get around.

    Really great location just up from the high street in quiet area. Pleasant terrace outside room with place to relax. Good hot shower with good pressure. Large bed and friendly host who offered lots of travel advice. No aircon in room, but air cooler in room was sufficient
