We booked the morning safari with half board package. Staying here was a great experience, and represented good value for money. The naturalist who joined us on our safari was truly fantastic, and added to our experience. The tent we had was really clean and big enough for a family of 4. Staff and food were great. Just note that the drive to safari is around 30 minutes in the jeep, but that wasn’t an issue at all as it all added to the experience.

Real adventure - great supper around the campfire, a little further then I had hoped from the National Park - charming ranger who took us on a night walk

Really cool experience, glamping in the jungle. The rooms are pretty above standard, considering it's just a tent. Great setting, fabulous service, and guide. Dinner bbq is a must, around the night camp fire, with all the shining bright stars above. Value for money, if you want to go Safari.

Heshan, our safari tour guide at Mahoora in Udawalawe, was nothing short of exceptional. His profound knowledge of the wildlife was immediately apparent, as he effortlessly identified and provided fascinating details about every species we encountered. From the majestic elephants to the most elusive birds, Heshan's passion for nature and conservation truly enriched our experience. His naturist abilities were impressive – he had an intuitive understanding of the ecosystem and knew exactly where to find the animals while respecting their natural habitat. His sharp eyes and deep understanding of the environment ensured we saw an incredible range of wildlife, often in moments that felt intimate and unhurried. Beyond his expertise, Heshan’s affability made the entire safari even more enjoyable. He was warm, approachable, and went above and beyond to ensure everyone in our group was comfortable and engaged. His enthusiasm was infectious, and he made learning about the wildlife fun and accessible for all ages. I highly recommend Heshan as a safari guide. If you’re lucky enough to have him leading your tour, you're guaranteed an unforgettable experience!

We loved it!

The camp site is really well thought out and you feel immersed in nature but safe. Particularly like that it is an eco friendly site, you see the effort made to follow eco standards.

I expected a nightwalk in the national park not on the property. Shouldn't advertise with this feature. Little bit overpriced for a night in tent, even so luxurious like it is.

Fantastic staff, excellent food.

The shower head was not good. But the tent was great

We booked this very last minute and it was a truly wonderful place. The accommodation was great. I would recommend it. There is only one entrance into the national Park and the Safari tour leaves from the camp takes about 25 minutes to get to the entrance. Solomons is very knowledgeable.

They could ad some AC, it was very hot and the fans were not enough to bring confort. Also at dinner some delicate lights above the table would be nice to help see better what we eat. I do understand that this camp is in the jungle, that there are many birds and insects, but considering the tents have many facilities, AC would be welcomed.

The camp is big and it was an overall great experience. Tent was large, with clean sheets and hot water. Nice design. There are peacocks, rabits and landmonitors around, and we heard and saw many birds. No mosquitos 🤷🏼‍♀️.At night we used flashlights to get around. Food was really good, dinner was soup + barbeque (pork and chicken) and for breakfast we had eggs, local food, fruits. The camp is very close -20 min to the Park entrance The safari was also a great experience, we had Mr Solomon with us, he shared a lot of interesting things, he gave binoculars and had a book with birds. Staff very friendly and helpfull.

The staff went out of their way to help accommodate us and our young family. They also organised a fantastic safari (we went both mornings) and Solomon the guide was very knowledgeable.

The camp is closely joined with big game, and it seems both of them need a bit of maintenance. It felt a bit rundown. If they renew the tents and pathways near the lake would be a big plus. It’s a pity they stand there all over grown. Place some sitting areas around the lake - it’s a beautiful view. Food was good but not worth the price. Also we expected something more individual when they mentioned they use only products from the village. We booked a tent at Mahoora online with a big space and a sofa. Unfortunately this was not given in ours. It looked more basic like the ones at big game.

The location (calm and quiet ) and set up of the camp was amazing even tho it could be used more. The staff is friendly and helpful. We loved the view behind the camp when walking on the big rock! Do that when you stay there - walk around the campsite:)

Our driver struggled a lot to find the place, we would recommend to request specific information for the direction if not provided. Rather far away from the park entrance (more than 30 minutes drive). The tents are dark and absorb the heat during the day - probably due to some constraints but still to be considered.

This was a very interesting experience: sleeping in a comfortable tent, hearing the animals in the night (especially peacocks), nice dinner in the dark with oil lights and a fire in a common area.

The manager of the camp was extremely kind and available to chat, to show us around. The tent are perfect: very big and with all the services you might want. The food was very good. We had the best experience. Couldn’t ask for anything different!

The views aren't great from the camp

The staff are great

Stayed in January 2024

The signage / directions from the management to the property could be improved as it took us a while to find the entrance. Dinner is outside so bugs can sometimes be a problem if you’re in an area that had / has a lot of light. Food is on the pricier side for Sri Lanka but is still very nice.

Great unique location which makes you feel you’re staying out in the wild in luxury. The room was much better than we expected with lots of space and hot shower. We had a great Safari with Solomon who also took us on a nature walk - very knowledgeable and make the experience great.
