This is a hidden gem! You may not think so when you first stand outside the building, but trust the reviews! Nadi is an exceptional host. So caring, kind and generous. The room is excellent. The bed is huge and really comfortable and the room has beautiful views into the valley. You will be spoiled with an incredibly delicious home cooked breakfast (a different one every day!). The location is also superb. A 6 minute scooter drive up the hill into town. Our stay has been exceptional, would highly recommend :)

What a stunning location and such a friendly and kind family! The rooms are absolutely stunning and the location genuinely unbeatable. You do have to be prepared to walk up and down a large flight of stairs to benefit from that beauty but it is totally worth it. The hosting family were extremely helpful, kind and thoughtful. We would not hesitate to recommend this place to any traveller looking for somewhere off the beaten track!

Everything is brand new, super clean and nicely decorated. Spacious room, very comfortable bed, nice bathroom (with good water pressure and warm water), outside terrace. Breakfast was superb (and a lot!!). The host is extremely friendly and goes out of his way to make your stay a perfect experience. Location is great as well (10-15mins to Ella train station, close to the city center with many Restaurants and bars, nearby hikes to the Nine Arches Bridge and Little Adams Peak), just the final ascend to the accomodation is a bit steep (no problem though unless maybe you happen to have very much luggage).

    We are fortunate to have travelled the world and can say this is one of our favourite accommodations ever. The rooms are ginormous, so spacious, modern, the view is indescribable, the breakfast is some of the best food we've had in Sri Lanka. The staff are so kind and helpful and will make sure you have an amazing time. I cannot believe the value for money of this place, can't recommend it enough. Thank you Shan and Tina for such a memorable stay, from Fahad and Shahad

    We stayed three nights in Pramitha's family room. The hoste was very respectful and friendly. We received a delicious breakfast every morning. The location is a bit higher in the mountains than other accommodations but definitely doable on foot (you can take shortcuts through steps), you are in the city center in 20min. Highly recommended!

    Nice play to stay a little bit further away from the business of Ella. We stayed in the chalet. Next time we would choose for the newer accommodations, which looked stunning. Our room was certainly nice, but needs a little bit of love and attention. Private pool was amazing. Food delicious! We probably had our best curry from the whole trip!

The beds are very comfortable and there is even hot water in the shower if you wait a bit. Breakfast was very large, varied and delicious, the owners even cater to individual wishes and are very kind. One of the best accommodations we have stayed in Sri Lanka!

    The views, the room, the balcony for breakfast. Our three night stay at Secret View was such a lovely experience and one of our best accommodations in Sri Lanka. We were able to explore Ella but also were more than happy to relax at the hotel when it was raining. Our host was so so helpful and was so kind to offer to pick us up and take us into town by tuktuk when we wanted. The location of the hotel is exceptional with views of mountainous landscapes and a gorgeous flowing waterfall. Thank you so much Secret View!
