We felt at home in Ella Ridge View, so much we stayed an extra night.
The property is ideally situated to walk to the town centre (10min), Nine Arch Bridge (30min), Little Adam’s Peak (1hr) and Ella Rock (2hr), all places we would highly recommend visiting, especially Little Adam at sunrise.
The family live in a house next to the accommodation and they made us feel so welcome. They helped us with trips, way finding and were very attentive to our needs at the accommodation.
The view from the room was spectacular, we could see across the value to Ella Rock. While the room did not have AC it was not an issue because it was cool in the forest and the tan sufficed, the excellent fridge and comfortable bed helped too. The bathroom was clean and towels plush.
There was a family of monkeys that live in the trees locally and we spent an afternoon watch them feed on the bananas near the balcony. It is just a shame I can’t upload the video here.
I have uploaded photos of the best breakfast we have had in Sri Lanka. Sameera makes it all fresh and it is absolutely delicious. We had hoppers and roti, fruit and juices that were all fantastic. I would stay for the breakfast alone, it’s the reason we stayed another night.
Thanks you Sameera and family for making our Ella stay so special.
