" YOLO " LOVELY COTTAGE

Our experience at Yolo was absolutely amazing. The room we stayed in was newly built with great attention to detail, and it had everything we needed. It was very comfortable and spacious, and the view was incredible. You wake up to a beautiful sunrise every morning. The food was also delicious and really added to the overall experience. The host, Vimukthi, and his family were always welcoming, smiling, and incredibly helpful. They went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. They also offer their own family transportation service, which made our trip even more special. Vimukthi personally took us to some of the most beautiful spots in Ella and later drove us to Yala National Park at a very reasonable and convenient price. We highly recommend this place to anyone looking for an authentic and unforgettable experience!

We absolutely loved our stay here. The food is not to be missed - probably the best we had during our 3 week trip in Sri Lanka. The views from the balcony are top notch; especially sunrise whilst listening to all of the birds. What sets the cottage apart is the amazing hospitality from the entire family - so generous, warm and kind. We truly loved our stay here and were so sad to move on.

We were welcomed by a lovely family and we felt true and honest hospitality. The cottage is in a location 8 minutes outside Ella by tuk tuk and the family can provide the transfer in a very good price. The room is much better than the photos, probably the cleanest accommodation we stayed in Sri Lanka, where you feel that every detail has been taken care of. The location is excellent, in the nature, sleeping and waking up with the sound of birds. Very good local home made breakfast. Also note that every time we are looking for accommodation we check all hotels and reviews and we are very happy to have found this one. We totally recommend it.

Can't get better in Ella. A one room guesthouse in the hills with a great terrace for meals and relaxing, even a view from bed if you like. Friendly old couple greeted us and cooked us an incredible Kottu as we were hungry when arriving. Very close to Ella rock hike start and they can give you all the instructions to reach it.

Its a bit far from town if that's where you want to be in Ella (hint: you don't).
