    There is still some construction going on, but it didn’t bother us!

    The bungalow had a lot of space and was very clean! The pool right in front of the terrace is simply amazing and the fact that there are only two bungalows makes it very calm as you have the pool almost to yourself. The arranged sunrise safari was one of the best experiences we had in Sri Lanka!

    This place is just to good to be true! They should increase the price. We loved the spacious room, the giant shower with hot water, the swimmingpool, te view and the meal that they prepared especially for us. It's just a few minutes away from the National park.

    Would have liked a fridge, but not essential.

    One of the best stays in Sri Lanka. We got very spacious room - the whole challet just for us. It was very nice there. The swimming pool was just amazing. Everything is new and clean and the staff was super nice. They drove us from Ella for half of the price we were offered in Ella. The hotel is close to the national park, you can agree on the safari trip directly in the hotel and they come for you. They also arranged for us a taxi to Mirrisa and managed to rent a bigger car to travel with other travellers for lower price for us. The dinner was sri lankan average, but very big (three courses menu).

    We LOVED this place! The rooms are fantastic. Super comfortable. Room has AC. The swimming pool was amazing but the best was the hospitality of the owners and staff. The food they prepared for us was such a treat. Three meal course for dinner of the most delicious Sri Lankan curry and three meal course for breakfast . It’s minutes from the national park. The kids loved it. We super recommend this place. Thanks Chami!

    We loved EVERYTHING

    The location was perfect, less than a 5 minute drive to the safari, we pretty much had the pool to ourselves through out our stay, the room was super spacious and very clean, we had dinner in the restaurant at the hotel and was very delicious, it’s not very close to any other restaurants, we tried the town nearby one evening but the options very limited. The staff were also so helpful, organised our tuktuk and helped us get the bus the next day, definitely recommend staying here

    Great location (close to the entrance to the national park) but further from the town which was a big plus for us as we like more peaceful places. The accommodation has been so far the best that we have had in Sri Lanka - spacious new houses, comfortable bed and big bathrooms. It looks just like in the pictures. Big plus for the swimming pool in which we could rest. There was also a very helpful owner and the staff that always wanted to make sure that we have what we needed. We were also greeted with a refreshing drink that tasted soo good especially after a long travel. You can eat dinner there for 5$ (we had soup, curry and dessert) which was a fair price for these 3 dishes. Definitely would recommend this place!

    Apart from safari this is a very quiet area

    Comfortable and clean rooms and friendly, helpful staff. They organised safari for us and made it very easy. Very close to nature park entrance which is convenient. They were negotiable on price which we really appreciated as 2 young travellers! The staff helped us to catch our bus to Ella also which was kind. The pool is really nice!

    To get around you need a vehicle, but that’s not related directly to the property.

    The room was spacious and had everything we needed, staff was welcoming, pool was extremely clean and refreshing.
