    The accommodation is a dream come true. Spread over three floors, this cabin is surrounded by lush greenery. What's more, the host is very attentive and is always happy to drive guests anywhere in his tuk-tuk. Even when we set off at 4:20 a.m. to watch the sunrise on Ella Rock. What's more, the breakfast is the best we've had in the whole of Sri Lanka.

    To start with, Dilu bro was an impeccable host! We reached a bit too late with some issues with our transport and stuff. Owing to all that we were a bit low on energy and a bit hot headed. But Dilu bro handled us so calmly and he was very kind and courteous to all our necessities. He helped out with the transit, our dinner and made sure that we had a perfect breakfast on the go, even though our requested time was a bit too early. He even drove us all the way to Badulla for a very decent price in his tuktuk.He was on time always and has been a gem throughout! Wishing this stay all the very best in their future. The stay was also very cozy and comfortable. The only downsides from my perspective was the distance from the city centre, but worry not, cause the hosts are very considerate about that issue and will make sure that you don't feel the struggle of reaching and leaving their property. It is literally nestled in a jungle with a beautiful ravine flowing beside it! Great views, great food and insanelyyy awesome hospitality! 🔥❤️

    Everything was perfect: the isolated place in the jungle with a river, the perfect service and breakfast and the luxurious cabana. You also can do nice hiking from the place.

    The cabin is a bit secluded and a 20 minutes drive from Ella town, however the staff went above and beyond to help us get everywhere!

    The cabin is amazing. We had the best breakfast of the whole trip here.

    Nothing. Everyone should make a stop to this hotel!

    We had a lovely stay in the middle of the jungle, away from Ella crowded city center. The host was so kind and arrange everything to make our stay even better. Spending time on the terrasse, by the sound of the waterfall, was great and breakfast was delicious. Bravo for this hotel !

    The Jungle Cabin is a magical place. Everything about our stay was truly wonderful. Falling asleep and waking up to the sound of water and birds felt like a dream. The natural beauty surrounding the house is breathtaking, and what really made it unforgettable was the house itself: beautiful, spotless, and full of thoughtful details. Breakfast with a view was absolutely delicious and clearly made with care and love. And Dilshan’s kindness and warmth are beyond words. We will carry this place in our hearts forever. Highly recommended!

    One of the most beautiful and emotional experiences of my life. The Jungle Cabin Ella is not just a place to stay — it’s a place that touches your soul. Nestled in breathtaking nature, the cabin is modern, spotless, and designed with such care… but what makes this place truly unforgettable are the owners. They are exceptional human beings — full of kindness, generosity, and warmth. From the smallest gestures to the biggest acts of care, they made me feel like family. I’ve never met people so genuinely good, so attentive, so giving… They looked after every detail with love, and their presence alone is enough to make you want to stay forever. Leaving was heartbreaking. I left with tears in my eyes and a heavy heart, because you don’t just leave a place like this — you leave a piece of your heart behind. And the breakfast? It’s not just food — it’s a gift. Made with love, full of flavor, and shared with a smile. Thank you for everything. This wasn’t just a stay. It was a moment of life I’ll cherish forever. If you ever go to Ella, don’t miss this place. It’s pure magic.

    An absolute hidden gem ❤️! From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the stunning surroundings — a peaceful natural setting with a cabin that’s modern, beautifully designed, and spotlessly clean. But what truly made our stay unforgettable were the owners: incredibly kind-hearted, thoughtful, and attentive to every little detail. They were always there to help, listen, and make sure we felt at home. Their generosity touched us deeply — leaving this place literally brought tears to our eyes and a broken heart. And let’s not forget the breakfast: absolutely delicious, generous, and made with so much love. Thank you for everything — this was a magical stay we’ll never forget. I truly recommend this place with all my heart 💚🌿

    A beautiful cabin on top of a water stream surrounded by thick forest. Takes you into the jungle with just the right feeling of being in the wild with safety. It is run by a family, the three brothers took great care in ensuring that our stay was comfortable and that we could easily move back and forth from the jungle to Ella. It was a pleasant walk away from the Nine arch bridge. The breakfast was exceptional. I loved the place and would definitely want people to enjoy the wilderness.

    Nothing really negative to point out.

    The host arranged transport whenever we wanted, at a reasonable price! Really nice location close to the bridge, perfect to escape the busy tourist areas. Cosy and romantic place where you can come to rest and enjoy Ella. Amazing breakfast too! Don't miss this when visiting the area.
