This lovely quiet hotel is located a short tuk tuk ride from the busy city of Ella. The views are lovely. The service and meals are great. Sashi was a gem. He provided us with information on what to do and see in Ella. Highly recommend this as a place to stay. Especially enjoyed hearing the birds singing and the peacocks calling

The staff was amazing. Really friendly and helpful. Made us feel at home away from home.

“The misty mountains”

The rooms and property are clean . Located walking distance from the Kithaella railway station. And walking distance from the Ella rock and Ravana falls trail head. On sight breakfast and meals are fresh and good. Loved the tea service tray for breakfast. A shout out to Mr Sashi the man Friday for his great coordination and communication doing that extra bit that makes a great stay.

Staff, Location, facilities, food

“Super kind hosts serving lovely food and juice. A peaceful, idyllic location.”

A lovely little guest house situated in such a calm, peaceful haven. I felt like I was in a model railway! You can see the train coming into Kitgul Ella station from one side of the balcony and then you go the other side to see it curve round. Watching the birds is amazing too. Ella itself is a tourist trap with white faces outnumbering brown by a large factor. In contrast, Dream Catcher is a short trip away and it is super peaceful.

“Amazing gem in Ella”

We liked everything of this stay. A good smell of cleanliness welcomed us into the room, which was very clean and full of comfort. The position was really nice, surrounded by the green area of Ella. From our balcony we also saw the famous train passing through the forest. The dinner and breakfast were great, made with fresh products. The staff was very nice and welcoming, they helped us during our stay and made sure that we wouldn’t miss anything. It was hard to leave and we would love to go back there.

“Excellent Service.”

The rooms were really comfortable and cozy with a beautiful view of the outside scenery from the balcony. It ideal for both couples and families. The food was great and the service provided exceeds the expected. The hotel is situated very close to many tourist cites such as ella gap, little Adam's peak, 9 arch bridge etc. Overall it's an excellent place worth the price.

The breakfast was the best breakfast we have had on our trip so far. It had a nice blend of Sri Lanken and western you don't leave hungry. 10/10

“Clean accommodation, great views of the surrounding areas. Good start point to climb Ella Rock.”

Clean accommodation, great views of the surrounding areas. Good start point to climb Ella Rock. Staff were genuinely extremely friendly and helpful. Nice quiet location which may appeal to some, however main town and restaurants a little further away requiring a longer walk (30 minutes at good pace along railway tracks) or 10 minute tuk tuk ride (always around).

The quality of the food is impressive, and the spread caters to various tastes, ensuring there’s something for everyone. However, getting to the resort is not for the faint-hearted.

Overall, Ella Dream Catcher Resort is an excellent choice for those looking for basic, clean accommodation paired with exceptional service, a mouthwatering breakfast, and some of the most stunning views in the area.

The location allows you to se the famous train go right around the hill where the property is located. Location perfect ...just a few minutes outside the town ...in a quiet area that allows you to enjoy the " Ella " feeling.

“Peaceful stay in Ella”

Nice resort at the foot of the Ella rock, literally 2min walk from Kithalella station so perfect if you are comin by train. The host, Venura, is really friendly and make s sure to assist you with any request to have a memorable stay in Ella. Delicious food is served by the always smiling chef

“Astonishing views, brilliant breakfast, peaceful and friendly spot in easy reach of everything.”

This location is ideal: easy access to Ella’s rock through peaceful farmland, with a gorgeous train wending quietly through the lush valley. Best of all panoramic views in two directions from the dining room. And the best and most generous breakfast in Sri Lanka. A bargain and beautiful. Very sweet staff too.
