This place is magical! Truly a stay in the jungle. There’s no road to the cabin so the last part you have to walk on the railway. However the staff were really helpful and carried our suitcases the whole way - so do recommend to pack lightly. The place was amazing and the staff were so kind and helpful. Highly recommend!

A stay in the jungle

This cabana is no longer available to stay in they took our money of course and when we arrived they showed us to a youth hostel place. I was not happy and told them to take down the bamboo cabana as an option on last minute. They did provide us with a better room in another building but I was not happy.Beware

I did check in this Cabana on 28 Aug 2023 . On the very night while sleeping i foind rats were running on my bed and room .Do not go!!! 
A dodgy place. Owener  does not respond. We had to leave the place and find another accomodation. Ruined our night.DO NOT GO !

DO NOT GO!! FULL OF RATS IN THE ROOM

The rooms were very clean and nice. We were very warmly welcomed and the staff was always friendly and very helpful. Very tasty breakfast. Highly recommended. Everything here was beautiful in nature. A whole cabanna to yourself with lots of things to use. I would not recommend this hotel with heavy suitcases as there are a lot of steep stairs where it is very tedious to carry the suitcases. Rather backpacks.

The guest house has an amazing location with a beautiful view in the middle of the nature. Super calm and nice and in the same time Ella city center is only a 5 min tuk-tuk ride away. We got great help when needed and an amazing breakfast served on the balcony every morning. Great value for money in an unique location.

Beautiful location in the middle of the nature

The property is located in a beautiful part of Ella. A walk along the train tracks to town is a unique experience. The breakfast served on the veranda was delightful. Shehan, looked after us exceptionally well.

Thank you Shehan for looking after us. We had a wonderful time. The cabana was delightful. The view was stunning. Shehan served breakfast on the veranda each morning which was superb. He looked after us so well that I did not want to leave. The trip to town on the train track was fun and made me feel like a child. Loved Ella. Love Bamboo cabana. 

Beautiful 

Really enjoyable and beautiful located place to stay in Ella. We were two people and stayed in the upper apartment which offered us a brilliant view over the nature area. The straff was extremly friendly and helped us with information about the city. Our Sri Lankan breakfast on the terasse was fresh and very tasty. We would definitivt come back!

Beautiful view

Great two night stay .  A little out of Ella itself but an easy and interesting 15 mins walk in along the track.  Met by the staff at the end of temple rd. wonderful huge breakfast each day.  Anything required, the staff will do what they can’t to get it for you.  Fantastic views, amazing walks on your doorstep. Would stay again.

On the tracks

We stayed here for 2 nights. When we arrived we got a tuk tuk to take us here (350LKR). We were dropped off at the bottom of a gravel road next to the train tracks and told to walk down the rail line. About 100 meters down we were met by a really friendly member of staff and an incredible view over the waterfall. 

The room was spacious and clean with a mosquito net over the bed. We had WiFi that worked well and a tv that we didn’t need but good to have. 

Ella is a 15 minute walk down the train line and you are supplied with a lantern which you should definitely make use of, or the torch on your phone! Maybe check the train times before walking down as it is pretty scary when a train comes and you have to jump into the hedge especially in the dark. A great experience we won’t forget though. We mixed walking to Ella and getting tuk tuks and the ranged between 350 and 500LKR. 

We had breakfast on the first morning which was delicious but didn’t seem to stop coming. Fruit platter, toast, eggs, roti, dhal and a big pot of filter coffee. 

Downsides (but not to us) could be that the lizards make lots of noise running over the metal roof, the train in the morning is a guaranteed alarm clock and the shower isn’t very hot or strong. But besides this it was one of my favourite stays in Sri Lanka. 

For the price the stay was amazing!
