Apartment vacation rentals in Ella

This was an amazing stay! I wish I stayed longer. The owners Asith and his wife have made a lovely piece of heaven in the mountains. The property and it's surrounding are a dream! The hosts are kind and made us a top notch breakfast. On top of that they are so accommodating and super hard working. There are some considerations when people choose to book, if you're bringing a mini van it's a bit tricky, but the owners make it work! But just keep in mind roads are narrow. They provide their tuk tuk to help as well.

My stay at this place by the water was simply & good. The natural sounds and the view of the temple create an peaceful atmosphere—perfect for relaxation. My host was fantastic!!!He speaks excellent English, gave me great tips, and even organized a full-day tour for me. He was patient, kind, and always helpful. The accommodation is slightly away from the tourist crowds—exactly what I was looking for. I stayed for two nights and was completely satisfied. The room had everything I needed, including a small balcony.

We travelled with our 3 year old daughter and had an exceptionally nice stay! We recommend it 100%. Stunning views, peaceful surroundings. Fantastic breakfasts served on the beautiful terrace. It’s even better than the pictures! The host family was extremely kind and helpful at all times. The house is located at walking distance to 9 Arch Bridge and about 15 min by tuk tuk/car from central Ella. It’s super easy to find transport and to get around. We will for sure cone back and enjoy this house and Ella! Thank you so much.

Incredibly kind host family. They were always helpful, gave us a ride into town and organized a scooter for us. We used the home stay to explore the Ella region. While Ella is super touristy, the town of the Airbnb is very genuine and we loved the hustle and bustle. It is a separate apartment with a separate entrance. You’ll have everything you need including 2 bedrooms, 2 new bathrooms, a fully equipped kitchen, a living room and terrace overlooking the property.

Good and good value for 1-2 nights. A very friendly host, she gave us a delicious breakfast.

Amazing place to stay if you are traveling with the family.

We booked Cheshan's place in less than 12 hours before arriving. The host quickly replied to our questions. He and the caretaker were very helpful and agreed to take our luggage for storage before checking in. The place itself is lovely and within walkable distance to the center and the lake. The apartment is in the new building with underground parking and a pub nearby. The bathrooms were clean and well maintained. Highly recommend this apartment for fellow travelers.

I had a wonderful stay at Kushan’s place! It was clean, cozy, and exactly as described. The location was great, and the host was super responsive and helpful. I’d definitely stay here again—highly recommend! Once again Babu(caretaker) was so humble and helpful.

It was a great plessure to us stay in Samantha's place. appartement was very nice & clean. it was very comfirtable to stay there.appartement located in very calm place. City and supermarkets were within 1.5km. Samantha's appartement have a good city view. Highly reccomonded Samantha's place and willing to stay there on my next visit to nuwara eliya.

It was an amazing place and the host Irshad and his team was very attentive and helpful throughout our whole stay. I highly recommend this place.

Quite nice apartment，brand new with good furniture. And the staff are friendly and professional. near the building there is a nice coffee shop，That would be better if you prepare the hair dryer😊

My family stayed here for two days. They have an apartment on the ground floor and also a parking facility available. It's 1100 meters away from the Nuwaraeliya town center. If you're planning to stay somewhere near the town this place is a good shout.

We stayed 5 nights at Cecilia Cottage and did not want to leave once our time was up. A beautiful and peaceful apartment that felt homely right away. The host sharmini went above for all our requests and made our stay very special. I can’t wait to visit again. Thank you very much for everything!

Communication was great before & during our stay. Our time here was excellent. Magnificent views, comfortable living. Comfortable beds. Rooftop breakfasts a great way to start the day. Shan & JP were super helpful with recommendations and advice for Ella. Also arranged transport for us to local sites and offered to arrange our transfer to our next destination if we needed.

Nice place, as described. Good and clean washrooms. Location close to city center and some points of interest. Overall good experience.

The trip was family friendly. We looked at the photos, very beautiful scenery. Expectations were met. The house is at an altitude, very beautiful view, in the morning the fog is enveloping the mountains, just super! The host is available to help you with any questions you need. We were met in the house by the manager, located, called transport for a trip to the city. There is a fireplace in the house, in the evening you can sit by the fireplace for a pleasant pastime. The rooms are clean, there is everything you need, hot water. We were fed breakfast in the morning. The house has a beautiful greenhouse. The dining table is with a view! We liked everything. We recommend if you are in Nuwara Eliya to make a stop in this house.

This place is a nice homestay. The rooms were clean, the beds very comfortable and our landlord was a very nice lady. We had a very good breakfast in her dining room and this is an experience that you will not get at a normal hotel. Thank you Cecilia Cottage for the hospitality and also for the nice and interesting conversations we had.

Dawn’s place has a gorgeous view. It was about a 15 minute walk out of the centre of the town Ella, but to us this is what made it so special. It was in a really quiet valley with gorgeous views across the expanse of green and nature surrounding us. We found the actual town of Ella to be very touristy and commercial, so the peaceful serenity of Dawn’s place was perfect for us. We could go on lovely hikes from there. The room is simple but very comfortable and clean and with a fan stays cool. It has the loveliest little terrace where we sat and read and had delicious breakfasts of fruit and Sri Lankan goodies. Dawn’s team was so lovely and smiley.

Great stay! The apartment is in a convenient location, close to beautiful surroundings and shops. It was clean, well-maintained, and had everything I needed—including cooking facilities. The host was friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend!
