    Danush and his family made our stay a pleasure. The Hotel is located a short walk of 10min from the city center, we reached little adams peak and the nine arches bridge also with a short walk. You feel like being part of the family when staying here, fantastic local breakfast, Short term support and flexibility in booking and setup of trips. Cute chipmunks gave us company at breakfast. Highly recommend a stay, happy to stay here again.

    This hotel is absolutely stunning. The view from the room was priceless. Sharma and his team went out their way to give us 3 perfect night is Chill Ville. Really recommend the cooking class. 15min drive to Ella centre, that can be arranged by the hotel. Best breakfast we had in whole Sri Lanka. They offer both western and local food. It feels very domestic. They only have 7villas so you get a very peronal approach which is so nice.

    Saman & his family were amazing during our stay! The location was perfect & the view you get from the villa was stunning. This was by far our best stay during our trip to Sri Lanka. The breakfast was 10 out of 10, and we had something different every day which allowed us to try different Sri Lankan dishes; make sure you ask for the pancakes too! They also helped us with a transfer & generally were just really helpful. Thanks Saman!

    Holiday homes guest inn was absolutely sublime, it was clean and well presented. I went there for some privacy as I was very sick and the hostess looked after me as if I were her own family, bringing me dry toast and refreshing drinks and medicine to my room. I felt so comfortable and felt much better the next day, and enjoyed breakfast from the restaurant which has an amazing view.

    Host Mr. Kamal is a great person and very friendly. We enjoyed every minute we stayed in Moonlight. The breakfast was amazing! The room is comfy and cozy. We enjoyed the bike rental service provided by the Holiday home itself. We stayed 3 days and with the help of Mr. Kamal, we were able to get the best out of the vacation. I guess this is the only place in Ella that give exceptional service even though you are a Local. Love this place, and this will be our forever place if we come to Ella again! Thank you so much!
