We were lucky enough to travel through Sri Lanka out of season so were able to secure three nights at Waterfalls. It truly is an amazing place and none of the recommendations that I read were in any way false. We stayed in the Jungle Room; a beautiful little room with en-suite set into the landscape covered by plenty of... More

Only managed one night in the Homestay, due to its popularity, but thoroughly enjoyed our time there. The owners and staff were the best, especially when I needed a doctor after a slip at the waterfalls, I couldnt have been in better hands. I cant thank the guys enough, very good prices, best fish curry I have ever had and... More

This hotel little bit far away from Ella town. The price is reasonable. Foods are excellent and the staff is very friendly. The rooms are very clean and includes mosquito nets. Hot water shower is also available. Please convey my thank you to all the staff at Waterfalls homestay. Highly recommend!!

Well after reading the reviews on here, I was expecting great things. I'm thrilled to say I wasn't disappointed. I stayed here with my partner for two night in early May 2012. The owners weren't there but the place was run by very warm, welcoming and professional staff. Nothing was too much trouble for them and the home cooking was... More

Karen and the team - we just can not praise you highly enough. Rooms are so beautifully furnished. The food was fab and... More

A wonderful place run by lovely people in beautiful surrounds. Couldn't fault it. The place is spotless, the food was delicious, the towels were real towels (often hard to find in Sri Lanka). Karen and Martin are extremely friendly, sincere and very helpful. Also had a great massage there. Only disappointment- we could only stay one night.

Set in a stunning position on a hill surrounded by jungle and overlooking the waterfall, we stayed in the Veranda room for four nights. To wake up and see the early... More
