“A hidden gem with a warm family atmosphere”
This was an amazing place to stay! A hidden gem! It is away from the hustle and bustle of Ella but still walkable. Near to Nine Arch Bridge and Little Adam’s peak! The room was clean and comfortable. The host family were so warm and welcoming! They couldn’t do enough for us! The breakfast was delicious and we participated in the cooking class and again the food was amazing! I would definitely recommend!

“Wonderful Taste of Sri Lanka”
Sadamali was an excellent host. She was welcoming and made us feel at home throughout our stay. The cooking class was a great taste of traditional Sri Lanka cooking.

Our stay in Nature Relax was wonderful! The owner is incredibly kind, speaks English well, and goes above and beyond to help her guests. Her warm and welcoming attitude made us feel right at home. The breakfasts were delicious! We highly recommend this place!

One of favourite stays in Sri Lanka. Fantastic host and great property with peaceful forest view away from the hustle&bustle of Ella town centre. Breakfasts were absolutely delicious - a mix of Sri Lankan and continental. You could watch the birds on the patio - it was lovely. Perfect location - 15 minutes walk walk to little Adams peak and nine arches bridge. Room was very clean and quiet. Sanda was super friendly and helpful - and you could also do laundry on-site. They also have cute dog & cat that would greet you in the morning. Thanks for having us!

Very peaceful and relaxing. The room and the terrace are big and clean. In front of the terrace there's a beautiful garden full of cute birds and squirrels, also dogs and cats come to visit sometimes :) Within 15 min walk you can reach nine arches bridge, ravana pool club, zip line and Little Adam's Peak trail. The host is super nice and helpful, cooks delicious breakfast (everyday something different so it's not monotonous!), she also helped my girlfriend when she got sick, gave her some medicine for stomach that helped. 10/10 recommend!

“Clean, comfy, very friendly owner. 15min walk to 9 arch bridge and Ella centre.”
located between the (too) busy Ella centre and the 9 arch bridge, Nature Relax delivers on what the name promises. The garden is full of flowers and offers a beautiful view of the forest. Many birds visit so you will have a nice time just watching them. The room was spacey and clean, so was the bathroom. The owner is a super helpful and friendly lady. She did our laundry perfectly and was not expensive. She also gives cooking classes. We will visit again with our next stay in Ella.

We really loved staying in Nature Relax for two nights. Iranga is a very friendly person, she helped us to organize our trips and gave us a lot of good advices. She even offered us a free drive to the city with her brother. We had a cooking class with her and we prepared an amazing curry. The breakfasts were also delicious, typical for Sri Lanka. The homestay is in a very good location, close to Nine Arch Bridge and Little Adams Peak. In that price/quality you won't find anything better. I highly recommend it! :)

A 10 min walk to city centre (easy), nice and clean and with a great host which made us feel really welcome. Little garden with a view. Iringa made a nice dinner for us. We fully recommend this for the ones who look for a simple, quiet and clean accomodation.
