Had an amazing experience at Ela Forest Stay The highlight was definitely the 7KM offroad ride through the intense elephant forest route such a thrilling and unforgettable experience for adventure lovers. The entire journey felt raw, scenic and full of real forest vibes. The rooms were clean, comfortable and perfectly matched the peaceful nature atmosphere around. Waking up surrounded by greenery and forest sounds was something special. If you love offroad rides, hidden nature spots and unique stays away from city rush, this place is a must try. Totally worth the adventure!

Enjoy a truly peaceful escape with the must-do 7 km off-road Jeep ride as the absolute highlight! You'll be well looked after by the friendly staff and enjoy good food. It's an ideal spot for a fun overnight trip with a gang of friends. However, a few important notes: The three bedrooms are most comfortable with three guests per roomany extra beds will severely limit space. Though two rooms have ACs, keep in mind that the summer heat can be intense and the backup generator cannot power the air conditioning. Families with children should consider other options.

We were group of 11 friends visited this homestay, which is situated approximately 7 to 8 kilometers deep within the forest. It is important to note that there are no nearby amenities, so thorough planning and provisioning are essential. Despite the appealing pictures and reviews, our experience was less than satisfactory. The home stay suffers from inconsistent electricity supply, with power outages throughout. Although there is a backup but, it only operates for 4 to 5 hours (Only Light). Accommodation is limited to three small rooms, each accommodating three people, making the claim of 15 guests quite cramped. The homestay lacks a proper dining area where all guests can comfortably gather to relax and enjoy meals together. While the food quality was commendable, the absence of a suitable communal space was a drawback. At one point, we considered leaving due to the power outage, but heavy rain and the unavailability of their jeep made it impractical. Access to the honestay is via a 7 to 8-kilometer off-road journey, for which the resort provides a jeep. There is a small stream nearby where guests can take a dip, but caution is advised, especially with children, as snakes may be present. During our visit, the weather was extremely humid, and the lack of adequate fans in the common areas was uncomfortable. Only two of the rooms were equipped with air conditioning, which was insufficient given the conditions. Overall, the experience was challenging, particularly during the night without power.

Absolutely Exceptional Stay A True Home Away from Home! I had the most amazing experience at this hotel! The food was simply outstanding every meal felt like it was prepared with love and care, bursting with flavor and quality. Its rare to find such consistently delicious cuisine in one place. What truly made the stay unforgettable was the incredible hospitality. The home taker (jilz) went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and comfortable like we were part of their family. Their attention to detail, warmth, and genuine care made all the difference. If you're looking for a place that offers not just luxury and comfort, but a heartfelt experience with the best food and exceptional service, this is the hotel to choose. Highly recommended!

Highly recommend Ela Forest Stay for a truly immersive forest experience. The tranquility was exactly what we needed." Fantastic forest retreat! Clean rooms, beautiful surroundings, and excellent hospitality. Will definitely be back. Our stay at Ela Forest Stay was incredibly refreshing. The location deep within the forest is stunning, offering a true sense of peace and quiet away from the city bustle. The rooms were comfortable and well-maintained, and we particularly enjoyed the fresh air and sounds of nature. The staff was very attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. A great spot for nature lovers!" Ela Forest Stay exceeded our expectations. From the warm welcome to the comfortable treehouse accommodation, every detail contributed to a memorable experience. We loved the guided nature walk and the delicious homemade food. The caretakers, especially Mr.Jismon were incredibly helpful and knowledgeable about the area. If you're looking to disconnect and reconnect with nature, this is the place!" Special thanks to Mr.Jaison & Ms.Anooja.
