Waterfalls Homestay

Our stay at Waterfalls Homestay in Ella was absolutely perfect. The location is simply amazing, surrounded by nature with a beautiful and peaceful atmosphere that makes you feel truly connected to Ella’s charm. The host is extremely kind, caring, and attentive, always making sure we were comfortable and happy. You can really feel that they care about their guests, which makes the experience very special and personal. And the breakfast… wow! Without exaggeration, it was one of the best breakfasts we had in Sri Lanka. Fresh, delicious, generous, and prepared with so much care — a perfect start to each day. We felt very welcome and at home during our stay. If you are visiting Ella, this place is an absolute must. We would come back without hesitation!

What a brilliant, brilliant place to stay. A stunning spot, with views across to the beautiful falls and the lush hillsides around Ella. A short walk/even shorter ride into town - but far enough away to be a peaceful getaway from the bustle of the town. Kiah and Lakshan were perfect hosts, serving up the most incredible breakfasts, and giving the best advice on what to do in the area. Can't recommend this highly enough!

We stayed for 3 nights in the Garden Room at Waterfalls Homestay. Wish it could have been more. As hosts, Kiah and Lakshan could not have been more helpful or friendly. Lots of advice about things to do places to eat as well. Ella is a very relaxed place and has great walks, train rides and of course waterfalls! We also dined with the rest of the guests one night and the food was glorious. The breakfasts are as good as all the other reviews mention. I can still taste the divine mushroom omelette and sleeping to the sound of the waterfalls is very peaceful. Thanks for making it a great stay.

We just had the most amazing stay at the Waterfall Homestay, the view of the mountain and the waterfall are STUNNING. We were a bit worried about accessing Ella after the recent weather events but there was no issues at all coming from Colombo airport. We had a private driver who dropped us to the door. So glad we didn’t cancel our stay here at the homestay and in Ella. It has a been truely a highlight of our Sri Lanka trip - the rooms are gorgeous, and the breakfast that Kiah and her husband cooked for us was phenomenal. The accommodation is a short 1km walk to the Main Street where you can get food and browse shops. It truely was a memorable stay, we hope we can come back one day.

We almost cancelled our trip because of the recent weather events and we are SO HAPPY WE DIDN’T! With the roads cleared to Ella and the blue skies back, our breath was taken away from the moment we arrived. The mountain and waterfall views were extraordinary, and we were lulled to sleep by the sound of the waterfall. The house is so gorgeous and the breakfast - wow!! Kiah and Lakshan spare no thought in curating a beautiful stay complete with a delicious home cooked breakfast spread overlooking the mountains and waterfalls. I could not recommended this place more. If you are worried about the conditions post-weather events, please don’t! Ella is safe and back in business and the Waterfall Homestay is a dream.

We loved Waterfalls homestay. The hosts are so incredibly friendly and the service is just excellent. Waterfalls Homestay has four rooms and is small and comfortable with breath taking views. There's a main table where all the guests have breakfast together overlooking the beautiful Ella hills and waterfall. Breakfast is also excellent with homemade muffins, toast, eggs, fruit and buffolo curd (like Greek yoghurt).||The accommodation is a short walk away from the main centre or a five min Tuk Tuk ride. We also loved Ella town. Scenery is so beatiful. Ella and our stay at Waterfalls Homestay was one of the highlights of our trip. Our teenage kids also loved it.

Our stay at Waterfalls Homestay was absolutely magical! Perched on a hill with breathtaking views of Little Ravana waterfall and the jungle, this place is a true hidden gem. We stayed in one of the rooms with a 180-degree vista, and waking up to misty mountains and the sounds of nature was unforgettable.||The hosts were incredibly warm and welcoming, making us feel right at home. The homemade dinners (a must-try!) were delicious, and sharing stories with other guests at the communal table added to the charm. Our room was cozy, clean, and had everything we needed—hot water, a comfy bed, and a balcony to soak in the views.||The location is perfect - just far enough from Ella’s hustle to feel peaceful but close enough to explore easily. We loved spotting monkeys and birds while sipping tea on the veranda. The on-site massage was the perfect way to unwind after hiking.||If you’re looking for an authentic, serene, and unforgettable stay in Ella, Waterfalls Homestay is it! We can’t wait to return.

A great hotel with a beautiful view of the waterfalls. The rooms are clean and spacious, and there's a kettle in the room. The breakfast is delicious and has a large selection of fruit. The hotel staff was very nice and helpful.I highly recommend this hotel, especially because of the beautiful views from the window .
