Reviewer Type: Couple
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Such lovely owners!! We stayed in one of the cottages and wow you really have the most insane view from there?! Especially in the morning the sunrise is incredible! Also the vibe of the hostel is so chill and I loved chatting with the owners. They’re also always there to help you if it’s getting to town by bus or organizing a trip to a waterfall for you. Loved the breakfast as well which was included in the prize. (+ the cheese kottu with chicken is my go to dinner!! Def recommend) The location is a bit outside of Ella (20 min by bus for 100LKR) but if you love waterfalls this is the perfect place to stay cause they’re all super close!! + their dogs were so lovely, I already miss them.
