Samantha is a wonderful host very friendly, helpful, and always ready to assist with travel plans. She even helped organize tuk-tuk trips and gave tips on sightseeing. Nearby places like Ella Town (5 minutes by tuk-tuk) and Ravana Falls (15–20 minutes by tuk-tuk) are easy to access. Breakfast was delicious and authentic, including local dishes like milk rice, sambol, and fresh fruits. It felt more like a home cooked meal than hotel food. This resort is ideal for anyone looking to relax in nature. The surroundings are beautiful, with lots of trees, birds, and a very quiet atmosphere. It feels private and away from the busy town. The room was clean, airy, and nicely designed to match the natural setting. Cleanliness was excellent, and everything felt fresh and comfortable. Thank you very much Samantha and hope to see you again in our next trip😊👍

“Nature filled retreat with clean rooms and a kind host.”

Samadhi Nature Resort was the perfect place so far we stayed in Ella if you want a calm stay close to nature and near to Ella town. The rooms were very clean and well maintained, with a comfortable bed and a spotless bathroom. You can really feel the care taken in maintaining the property. Breakfast was excellent large portions with a mix of traditional Sri Lankan dishes and fresh fruits. Everything was fresh and tasty, and we were always well fed. Samantha’s hospitality stood out the most. She treated us like family, helped arrange tuk-tuks, and guided us on the best times to visit attractions. From the resort, you can take a short tuk-tuk ride (around 5 minutes) to Ella Rock or about 10 minutes to Demodara Nine Arch Bridge. Very convenient location overall.
