B&Bs in Wellawaya

We really enjoyed our stay. The room was lovely, the place was friendly and we had a great time. Great communication between Sam’s place and us before we travelled ensuring all our needs were met when we arrived. They were very helpful and provided us with information and recommendations for things to do in the area. I would recommend and we will be booking again soon. Thank you Sam!

We, my girlfriend and I, have experienced our stay as a wonderful journey. When we arrived, we were faced with a closed gate, but within seconds the owner arrived. After checking in, we entered the room – perfect! A nice big bed, a clean and spacious bathroom, air conditioning, Wi-Fi, and everything you could need! After having a little chat, the hotel owner asked about our plans. We mentioned that we came for the nature and tranquility, and without hesitation, he offered to show us around the area. This was the start of an experience we will never forget. 🙏 First, we went to a small waterfall, very local with no tourists – just some local youngsters hanging out who even offered us a beer. Then he took us to Diyaluma Falls – what a massive waterfall that was! He offered us lunch, which he had made himself! A sandwich we’ll never forget; it was incredibly delicious. Next, we visited Buduruwagala Rock Carvings, where the owner introduced us to Buddhism. The place was surrounded by nature – trees, plants, birds – pure enjoyment. We thought we were heading back to the hotel, but nothing could be further from the truth. We visited real monks, where we received blessings and a white bracelet from an elderly monk. They also offered us boiled corn – so tasty! After the visit, we continued back to the hotel. On the way, we ran into a friend of the owner, who invited us to their home. When we arrived, the whole family was there to meet us. What kind and friendly people! They offered us tea and chocolate biscuits, and my girlfriend even received a gift! It gave us such a happy feeling, something we will cherish forever. ❤️ Then it was time to head back to the hotel – or so we thought. Instead, we went elephant spotting! Yes, you read that right – real wild elephants! It got quite late, but we spotted several wild animals, including both a male and female elephant. This, too, will stay with us forever.

Great Host, Good price. Pretty close to Diyaluma Falls.

How much do you have to dislike your hotel for everything to be dirty?

The hosts take an enormous amount of care to make their guests are treated well and feel happy. On arrival we were greated with a pot of tea and advice about the area, where to eat and an offer to visit the famous cliff Buddha statues at Buduruwagala. Which are definitely worth the tuktuk trip. Water is always on tap. The Sri Lankan breakfast for 2 cooked by mama host would have been enough for 4. Wonderful! The place is a green oasis in the town centre. Even the shower water was cold from the hills towards Ella.

Excellent stuff, very good rooms with a beautiful view.The breakfast was amazing too.I recommend this villa.

I had an amazing stay 🌿 The cabins are beautifully designed, super cozy, and offer breathtaking mountain views. 🏔️ It was the perfect place to relax and recharge. It’s just a 20-minute walk to the upper waterfall, and you can reach the lower waterfall by motorbike – both are absolutely stunning! 💦✨ I also went on two unforgettable hikes in the area, surrounded by incredible nature. 🥾 The hosts were so kind and attentive, always making sure everything was perfect. 💛 The only downside was that the bathroom could have been a bit cleaner, but honestly, that’s a small issue compared to everything else. Highly recommend this place and would love to come back! 🌸

Stunning views. Delicious local kitchen. Lovely staff. Nice local (really secret) waterfall. And a really tasteful accommodation. It’s a bit far from Ella, but they organised us a friended Tuk Tuk driver who showed us all Ella’s must-seen’s at a really fair price.

Everything! Nadee and her husband put so much effort to make your stay as comfortable as possible. She cooks delicious and is always quick to help. Her husband takes you anywhere at anytime with the tuktuk. Best heartwarming stay & breakfast we had in Sri Lanka! We would highly recommend and thank them for making it such a wonderful stay!

Amazing views, amazing host, amazing foods & excellent service.
