Family-friendly vacation rentals in Bandarawela

Vi var her bare 1 natt, men hadde et veldig fint opphold! Vi ble tatt svært godt vare på av verten, som ordnet frokost og skyss til togstasjonen. Anbefales om du ønsker litt luksus på reisen!

Just amazing. It feels like living in England. Entire surroundings have english villas only. Very peaceful, very pretty and memorable

We had an incredibly relaxed and satisfying stay at Rajiv’s place. It’s hard to believe this charming bungalow is 144 years old, thanks to Rajiv’s meticulous upkeep while preserving its colonial charm in every corner. Ideally located in Nuwara Eliya, it’s a perfect retreat for anyone looking to unwind. The hospitality was exceptional—caretakers Lasantha, Pradeep, and the team went above and beyond, from welcoming us with tea to preparing amazing dinners. They even let me join in and cook, which I thoroughly enjoyed! A special thanks to Rajiv for personally staying an extra hour to greet us and give us a tour of the property before leaving. Highly recommend this beautiful place for an unforgettable getaway!

Our stay at this bungalow was nothing short of amazing! The property is spacious, well-maintained, and offers breathtaking views, making it the perfect escape from the city. The presence of friendly dogs added a warm and homely touch to the experience. Sanjoy, the caretaker, was extremely helpful and ensured we had a comfortable stay. One of the highlights was the bathtub, which made for a relaxing retreat after a long day. Given the amenities, space, and hospitality, this place is an absolute steal for the price. Highly recommended for a peaceful and rejuvenating stay

Such a special and memorable place. I will remember the sounds of the jungle at night most of all! We did the river excursions, floating breakfast and elephant safari all of which were amazing. Delicious food too!

Great peaceful place very helpful caretaker and an impressive view

Big and delicious breakfast! The room was clean and with a beautiful view of the mountains. The owner suggested us places to visit and organized a tuk tuk to the tea factory, little Adams Peak and to the waterfall. The only thing that could be improved is the Wi-Fi connection inside the rooms.

This is a beautiful Villa that can accomodate around 6-7 people. I would say I had the most amazing stay there. The place is clean and tidy. It had all the amenities required. The care-taker Dias did a wonderful job in cooking and catering to our needs from time to time. Jayantha, the owner of the property was beyond helpful to make our whole trip a beautiful one.

This beautiful cottage is small, and perfect for a small family. Since Nuwera Eliya gets a bit cold at night, the cozy bed rooms and the blankets provided by Thidasala came to our rescue. His father took care of us so well, since Thidasala was not in town when we visited. We appreciate that. The view from the room of the Gregory Lake is brilliant. The wifi is good. We had a small kitchen as well. The bathroom was clean and we had hot water. This place is perfect for a small family who wants to enjoy the city, and not be in the rush. Their hospitality was amazing. 5 star from me.

We had a great time at the Sitara bungalow. Beautiful place up in the hills in a tea estate, bit away from the busy Ella. Place is very spacious and nicely decorated. This is a better alternative to staying in Ella. The staff Ghandi and Nalini took good care of us. Gandhi's polsombola was amazing. We really enjoyed the meals they prepared for us. Leon the German Shepherd was a pleasure to have arround. We highly recommend this place.

We had a fantastic stay at Banyan Camp. Came highly recommended by friends who had stayed recently and it managed to exceed our expectations. One of the most peaceful and relaxing places I've ever visited. The whole camp is really well curated, we loved all the local antiques the owner has collected. All the traditional food was great, super healthy and was really fun to have the reasons why the various dishes are eaten together explained! We had a great time with the other guests around the dinner table too! Our dinner on the first night was floating on a raft in the lake under the stars which was a magical experience. Only regret is we didn't stay longer!

Die Unterkunft liegt mitten in der Natur, ca 25 Minuten Fußweg von Ellas Hauptstraße entfernt, mit dem Tuktuk ist man aber in 5 Minuten Mitten im Geschehen (500 LKR). Wir wurden sehr herzlich empfangen und haben auch die Cooking Class in der Unterkunft gemacht, als auch eine Tour zu Ellas Hauptsehenswürdigkeiten - kann ich beides empfehlen und vor Ort kriegt man auch Empfehlungen und Tipps. Man ist in den Chalets sehr privat und hat eine wunderschöne Aussicht, sodass man dem Trubel der Stadt entkommen kann. An die Geräusche der Natur muss man sich erstmal kurz gewöhnen - aber das ist nun wirklich ein Luxusproblem :-) Das Frühstück war ausreichend und ist mit viel Liebe gemacht. Man kann im Supermarkt auch noch Sachen dazu kaufen, wenn einem etwas fehlt :-) Können wir empfehlen!

A true retreat, nestled in the mountains. think stunning views, tranquility, wild peacocks and monkeys,but not a handy location to sight see from. Map was misleading and Haputhale is an hour away. Rooms are simple with delightful antiques. Staff are very courteous but have very limited English. Food was simple and delicious Sri Lankan cuisine. Make sure you book meals in advance. They kindly arranged a delicious birthday cake for us. Beautiful gardens with architectural features everywhere, lovely views, good swimming pool but lacking any comfortable seating. A truly unique place to get away from modern life.

Located about 20 minute drive from Ella, The Hideaway is a beautiful and remote spot, and was in fact better than I had expected from the AirBnB profile and pictures. The views are the major selling point, with fantastic views throughout the location. Staff very helpful in organising trips into Ella and able to offer on site spa treatment which was excellent. Bedrooms were more comfortable than I had expected, bathrooms were quite basic but not enough to trouble me. Onsite food was very good, but we preferred to travel into Ella for evening meals. Whether you want to just hideaway for a few days, or use this as a more remote spot to access Ella - it is great.

This was by far one of the most beautiful airbnbs I have been to! The staff were incredibly helpful and the house itself was gorgeous. Thank you and I hope to be back again!

Outstanding place, surreal views and service to match! The pictures don't do it justice but trust me, you won't be disappointed! Perfect angle for sunset over the infinity pool or even dining in room. Be careful on the road in, very rocky. Loved our stay here and already planning our next trip back! Gamini deserves a gold medal, couldn't ask for a better host!

I can’t describe how amazing this villa was, beautiful location, natural tub, very welcoming..we were traveling across the country and stayed at 4 different places, and this was the best.Kalairaj was so kind, helpful and he made us a delicious Chicken Curry and he made a fire for us to enjoy. Also there are so many monkeys around that was beautiful to watch their wild life. Highly recommend!
