    the best thing i loved about the place was the balcony view, was incredible, the positivity level there is 100%, the location was great, staying inside the jungle was one of my childhood dreams, and i am so happy to achieve it with isuru home stay, you get to do the best hiking experience there, you can get to nine arches bridge by walking because it is so close to the homestay.

    Balcony overlooking mountains and lush jungle. Easily the best bed in Sri Lanka I have used. Room spotless and looks new....although apparently 10 years old. Great maintenance. Location away from centre which was great, but close.to walks and nine arches bridge.

    A bit of a musty, moist smell. Needs to be aired out.

    Quiet and private location, great mosquito net, great view from balcony. Not too far from main road, and not too near either.

    This was a really lovely place to stay. The room was very clean, comfortable and well presented with a great balcony terrace with stunning views across the valley. I loved the peaceful location within easy walking distance of nine arches and only 50 minutes to the top of Little Adam’s Peak for sunrise. The town centre is 20-25 minutes walk though I had no problems in getting a tuk tuk to come. Chatura helped to arrange this and he and his family were very friendly and helpful . Breakfast was very generous and delicious. I would definitely recommend Isuru homestay.

    The water in the shower could have been warmer but forgot to ask the owner about it since we enjoyed every moment of our stay!

    Magical location including glorious views from the rooms and sunny breakfast area. We were spoilt with a delicious breakfast every day which included a generous selection of fresh fruit and a variety of options such as eggs, noodles, hoppers and curries, all cooked to perfection. It was great to be within a short walking distance from the city centre while enjoying a tranquil and picturesque homestay.

    We enjoyed our stay at Isuru Homestay. Our hosts were so friendly and accommodating, they also arranged a taxi for us at a great price. Location was great for us as it was away from the main hustle in the city. The room was clean and comfortable, the hot shower was amazing and water was provided throughout our stay. We couldn’t have asked for more, thank you!

    Because it’s outside of the main area, it is very dark to walk home. But the good thing about it is that we saw many fire flies. So it was still worth it:)

    The owners are very friendly and the acclimation is located in a very green and silent area. They were super helpful and extremely kind.

    The room could’ve been a bit tidier.

    We stayed for 4 nights. The family was so nice and helpful. Breakfast was really nice (they even had real coffee). Room was as shown on the photos. Balcony had a lovely tropical view. The small road that leads to the house takes about 4 min to walk, it can be tricky to approach with a tuktuk, but it’s totally doable.

    I suggest to lower the pressure of biddet as it is hard to regulate by a kid

    Breakfast was excellent, chathura asks us preferred foods and preferred time to ready One day they gave us hoppers for dinner as our children get along with hosts very well I recommend higher vehicles (Tuk) from chathura as they are affordable than Tuk Tuk parks Even they are willing to send us Tuk for our pick up locations in Ella and around I use Tuk tuks from hosts ever time. It is located very scenic quite location. I love the quietness and surrounds.
