    I was greeted with warm tea and biscuits on arrival. The breakfast and dinner were delicious, and the rooms were comfortable with mosquito nets. I truly felt at home here.

    Moldy lower rooms, not recommended. Food could have been better, but hey, at least they served five or six curries instead of just two!

    I had an amazing stay at this homestay in Ella. the room was immaculately clean and very comfortable. the family who runs the homestay were incredibly kind and helpful, even assisting with arranging transportation and tours. the location was perfect, just a short walk from the main street and close to popular attractions like Little Adam's Peak and the Nine Arch Bridge. the breakfast provided was absolutely delicious, and the WiFi worked perfectly for my online work. I highly recommend this place for a peaceful and enjoyable stay in Ella. Cons: Nothing not to like! 😊.

    My stay at Maleesha Homestay was excellent! From the moment I arrived, I felt like I was part of the family. Maleesha and her family were incredibly welcoming and made sure I had everything I needed for a comfortable stay. The Sri Lankan breakfasts were absolutely delicious, and Maleesha's tea was the perfect way to start the day. The homestay is in a great location, close to all the attractions in Ella, and the terrace provided a relaxing space to unwind after a day of exploring. I highly recommend Maleesha Homestay for a wonderful stay in Ella.

    Clean - comfortable rooms and beds at Maleesha Homestay. Convenient location - just a short walk from the city center. Local insight gained from staying off the main road. Outstanding service with a delicious and filling breakfast provided.

    The Hidden Gem: Tucked away amidst lush greenery, this homestay truly feels like an oasis in the bustling town of Ella. The garden views are simply breathtaking, offering a peaceful retreat from the outside world.

    Toilet cleanliness.

    Excellent value for money with clean and spacious rooms, including a nice balcony for breakfast. The homestay is conveniently located a short walk from the main street and attractions like the 9 arch bridge and little Adams peak. The family running the homestay is incredibly kind and welcoming, making you feel at home.

    The only improvement that could be made to the breakfast would be to offer more variety in terms of the breakfast items.

    Great location near bus and train stations, close to Adam's Peak, restaurants, and spas. Friendly and nice family. Delicious breakfast made to your taste. Clean accommodation with spacious terrace. Amazing food, especially the dinner. Laundry service available. Best value for money in Sri Lanka. Centrally located yet calm and quiet.

    Felt at ease, no complaints.

    The room at Maleesha Homestay was absolutely perfect! The private bathroom was super clean and had a bidet, which was a nice surprise. The free toiletries were a great touch too. The fully equipped bathroom had a shower and free toiletries, which made our stay even more comfortable. Our double room had a lovely balcony where we could sit and enjoy the view. The tile/marble floor gave the room a touch of elegance, and having a tea/coffee maker was a bonus. The double room with a balcony was just what we needed for a relaxing stay. The private bathroom with a bidet in our room was a game-changer. It added an extra level of comfort to our stay.

    Personally, I found the balcony in our double room a bit small, but some might still enjoy it.
