Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Uva Province

The hosts are a delightful family who also live there. Never met Nishan who is simply a front man for the listing. Would recommend booking via Bookingdotcom for a much better price. A mistake that we learned from. Property delightful and also host family who also live there. But Nishan describing the listing as the entire property is simply not true! Buyer beware.

I spent 4 unforgettable days in Ella in a place with an incredible view and the constant sound of a waterfall. Every morning felt like a dream—waking up to peace, nature, and breathtaking scenery. The location was perfect and close to everything. The place was clean, comfortable, and designed to let you enjoy the surrounding nature. My favorite moment was watching the sunrise with a cup of tea on the balcony while listening to the waterfall in the background. It was the kind of experience that stays with you, and I’d definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Ella.

What an adventure. We were a group of friends with people of all ages and everyone loved the space. It’s not a child friendly place but kids (and everyone else) loved the surroundings,birds and views. We hiked to the neighboring hill and were rewarded with amazing views. The hosts are very attentive and dealt with any issues proactively. It’s not an easy location but one worth making the effort to get to. The house is beautiful and rustic. An outdoor bathroom isn’t the most practical but somehow adds to the house and we can see how it would be great on the summer. The kitchen had everything we needed, we cooked all our meals with ease, and the local housekeeper is perfect if you prefer not to cook, in fact having her cook for you is a great way of empowering her to create a better life for herself and her family. Jody and Punyaka were always responsive and we hope to have the chance to visit again, it’s not an experience we will easily forget! Don’t miss Diyaluma falls (take swimsuit).

Excelent communication. Nice team at the house, very good food. Amazing view, house and location.

We had al lovely time at Amila’s place. The place is huge, very nice for kids, lots of room to play. Amila is extremely friendly and helpful, drove us around a couple of times and taught us everything about his garden. His knowledge of plants and fruits is remarkable. We were treated to fresh fruits daily and got a tour of his extensive garden. It is a little out of town, although close to the Nine Arches Bridge, so you could walk it if you like. Because we have kids we asked Amila to drop us off and pick us up. Highly recommend!

My family and I loved staying at sunsky cottage, the hosts were absolutely lovely and accommodating. The home itself is beautiful with serene views and stunning home design. Dumith and his wife were responsive when it came to any issues, and very sweet when we asked about recommendations. The home itself is a little further away from the centre, around 30 minutes. However there are a couple of good spots nearby to eat.

We ( family with kids & elderly parents) enjoyed our stay. The location was as described and ever more beautiful & serene than the picture. Very self sufficient cosy rooms, had all the amenities as described. The property caretaker was very friendly, always willing to help and make our stay comfortable. He went to the fish market especially for us, since we requested local fish curry for dinner. He treated us with home made sweets & savouries on New year morning. He went above & beyond to ensure my kids & elderly parents were comfortable. We enjoyed the generous portions of dinner & break fast cooked by the caretaker. Close to all the attractions in Ella. Will definitely recommend this to place to my friends & family.

We had a great stay in Nuwara Eliya. The staff were friendly, attentive, and always willing to help. The property matched the photos with beautiful views and a peaceful atmosphere. The food was good overall, but it’s worth proactively guiding the staff on your preferences rather than relying entirely on their suggestions. Overall, a comfortable and enjoyable experience.

This was an amazing stay! I wish I stayed longer. The owners Asith and his wife have made a lovely piece of heaven in the mountains. The property and it's surrounding are a dream! The hosts are kind and made us a top notch breakfast. On top of that they are so accommodating and super hard working. There are some considerations when people choose to book, if you're bringing a mini van it's a bit tricky, but the owners make it work! But just keep in mind roads are narrow. They provide their tuk tuk to help as well.

My stay at this place by the water was simply & good. The natural sounds and the view of the temple create an peaceful atmosphere—perfect for relaxation. My host was fantastic!!!He speaks excellent English, gave me great tips, and even organized a full-day tour for me. He was patient, kind, and always helpful. The accommodation is slightly away from the tourist crowds—exactly what I was looking for. I stayed for two nights and was completely satisfied. The room had everything I needed, including a small balcony.

We travelled with our 3 year old daughter and had an exceptionally nice stay! We recommend it 100%. Stunning views, peaceful surroundings. Fantastic breakfasts served on the beautiful terrace. It’s even better than the pictures! The host family was extremely kind and helpful at all times. The house is located at walking distance to 9 Arch Bridge and about 15 min by tuk tuk/car from central Ella. It’s super easy to find transport and to get around. We will for sure cone back and enjoy this house and Ella! Thank you so much.

Thank you Nimantha for taking us in! This Airbnb apartment is not usually booked trough Airbnb, so I recommend contacting The hostel trough other services. I asked Nimantha to deactive his account.

It was a perfect time, really recommend 😊

Poorna's villa was beautiful. It was spacious, clean and with all basic amenties. Host was extremely friendly, and extended help in whatever we requested for , instance arranged laundry services etc. Breakfast spread was decent with coconut roti, breads, egg, juices, fruits, coffee/ tea. Poorna's wife also showed us how they make Srilankan rotis. Overall fantastic stay and highly recommend family with kids.

Ruwan was super flexible and responsive. His place was clean and as described.

Lovely and cosy place in a great location. Beautiful views. Very clean and had a nice feel to it. We appreciated the little kitchen set up and basic utensils to make breakfast. The host is so kind, friendly and had great communication. Thank you :)
