Vacation rentals in Dick oya

This was the most beautiful place to stay in Ella. Yes it is a 10 minute tuk tuk drive to the centre but the peace and quiet, beautiful surroundings and the most amazing and hospitable staff more than makes up for this. We only stayed one night but wish we could have stayed longer. The host was fabulous, even getting an extra bed for us at the last minute and taking feedback on their listing to make it clear what was on offer. We were not there long enough to join a cooking class but wish we had because the smells of the cooking and the joy from the laughter of those attending made us wish we had! The breakfast was delicious in the amazing surroundings of a spice garden and it was a short walk to a popular starting point to walk to the nine arch bridge. Would recommend this to anyone staying in or around Ella - you won’t be disappointed! Thank you to the host for everything, one of the best places we stayed on our trip around Sri Lanka!

The house was very beautiful, amazing views of the lake Gregory, mountains and perfect spot to view sea plane landing. Our family loved it. Kitchen could be equipped more with spoons, utensils etc. Pradeep and his Mom were very helpful. Bathroom could be more clean and glass doors need to be revamped as the water came out while taking shower. Perfect house for our Christmas gateway. Thanks.

We stayed 5 nights at Cecilia Cottage and did not want to leave once our time was up. A beautiful and peaceful apartment that felt homely right away. The host sharmini went above for all our requests and made our stay very special. I can’t wait to visit again. Thank you very much for everything!

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).

We had a wonderful stay at Pubudu 's place . Our caretaker - Bala made every effort to provide us a comfortable and relaxing stay. He is well aware about his boundaries and knows when we need our privacy and his assistance. The accommodation is located in a hilltop with a great view . If you wish to stay there, take everything with you since the nearest township is located at the downhills.

We stayed 3 days in this beautiful villa; the place is beautiful, relaxing, peaceful and just as private; the staff was incredibly warm with us from the moment we arrived; Justin was able to meet all our expectations; the cuisine was excellent; and finally the pool which was really amazing with a breathtaking view; I highly recommend this beautiful place

I just wanted to express my sincere gratitude for the incredible hospitality during our stay in Ella. The room was spotless, the view from the balcony was absolutely breathtaking, and your warm welcome made us feel at home from the start. A special thank you for your kindness and support when my daughter was unwell. Your care and willingness to help made a world of difference, and I truly appreciate it. It’s not just the beautiful surroundings but also the genuine hospitality that made our stay so memorable. Looking forward to visiting again in the future!

It was an amazing place and the host Irshad and his team was very attentive and helpful throughout our whole stay. I highly recommend this place.
