“Tranquil rainforest getaway just an hour and a half from Colombo”
Rambas Reserve is a passion project by husband-and-wife team Priyani and Nalanka. They care deeply about preserving Sri Lanka's precious wet zone environment and have created a tranquil, private space nestled between waterfalls deep in the rainforest to help visitors experience nature up close. I went with a friend I hadn't seen in years for a girl's trip. We were searching for a relaxing getaway and got it. We spotted rare birds and threatened purple face monkeys, heard frogs and cicadas, and shared our open-air bathroom with a giant snail. I caught up on reading while it rained and enjoyed the crystal-clean natural pool when the sun came out. My friend and I enjoyed wine (byob) by the tea estate while overlooking Adam's Peak and had scrumptious meals throughout. See their Instagram page for pictures: https://www.instagram.com/rambas_reserve_/?hl=en. Although you're in a rainforest, your room feels like an oasis with beautiful textiles, creature comforts, and thoughtful touches. Pictures do not do this place justice -- we decided to extend our stay to two days after arriving. The hosts and staff are kind and generous, and you feel the love it took to build such a special place off the beaten path. There is simply no place like it -- the beauty of Ella without the crowd, a stone's throw from Colombo but a world away.
