River Splendour Home Stay

What a beautiful little haven !! Champi and family have created something beautiful - located just outside of the hustle of Ella but only a short tuk tuk away. He will help with anything you ask (including the parking of our Jeep while we stayed). The rooms are spotless, the waterfall is so beautiful! Highly recommend !!

Our family spent 3 nights at River Splender. Champi (and her family) are warm and friendly hosts. Ella has had a lot of rain so the waterfall was swollen and loud. Not safe to swim but wonderful to watch. My kids and I did a cooking class which was lots of fun and very delicious. I’m familiar with the spices but have never cooked with jackfruit or banana flower.I particularly loved hearing about the spices and fruits Champi grows in her garden. I picked a fresh cardamom seed which smells incredible! She even grows and grinds her own coffee! The rooms are basic but what may be lacking in mod cons is made up by jungle experience, a private waterfall and warm family hospitality. I can’t wait to try Champas family recipes at home.

Thanks for Champi, Sham and family… amazing place amazing corner… cannot describe it with words. The waterfall, the location, the people and the room… just a vital experience. If you want to experience jungle and comfort, this is the place

I wish I could put six stars, Champi, the lady owner, is the nicest and helpful person you could find. She’s an English teacher, and a cook teacher as well . About the place …. This is PARADISE !!! This homestay has it s proper waterfalls, Eadies fantastic to chill out on a rock in the middle of the river. The rooms are extra clean and the beds are just king size … Top top top !!!!!! Thanks again for everything to Champi and her family !!!!

Great location and very accessible in everything. Moreover, there’s a hidden gem (falls) exclusive only for their guests. Superb breakfast as well with really homemade local delicacies. Thanks to Champi, she’s so kind and accommodating to us, showing the river (falls) in details. She’s always willing to help with open arms. Balcony was having an amazing views of nature. Really commendable people and place.
