Not good, the room is very humid, the water is salty, too simple, breakfast and dinner have to be paid extra, the price-performance ratio is very low, I wanted to return, but the way in and out is too difficult, so in the end I could only make do with one night, and the next day I went to the park and quickly escaped from this damn place

We spent one of our two days completing the Safari with the wonderful Dilhara who took us on a tour of Yala national park. He was so knowledgable about all aspects of the wildlife and natural habitat of the animals that we encountered. Genuinely proud to share with us what he knew and excited to accompany us on the hunt for wildlife. The highlight was finding a herd of elephants and even getting close enough to touch the one Dilhara knew well- affectionately named Raja. Would defo recommend - even with the 5am alarm haha

Great Campsite, very good and helpful staff. Very friendly. Tents are clean and functional, communal area good and clean. Dilhara our guide was exceptional. He and the driver are brilliant. We found 2 x separate Leopards. Very knowledgeable.

We spent 3 nights at Mahoora tented safari camp. The food and service from the staff was excellent. We went on 4 half day safaris and one full day and were accompanied by a wonderful naturalist called Vimansha on all of the safaris. His enthusiasm for wildlife was contagious and his knowledge of the wildlife and especially birds was encyclopedic! One of the safaris was to Bundala where not only did we see many birds but also some elephants and the scenery was beautiful. Worth the drive as also very peaceful there. The drivers on all our trips were great turning off the engine at each stop and one of them spotted a leopard for us.

We were there for 2 days and had a very great time! It‘s an unique experience to sleep in the wild inside a tend without giving up a good service and daily cleaning. (Besides, during the whole day you can enjoy small safaris around the camp) The safari was amazing.! We had a gread guide (Dilhara) with an amazing driver . With already having some good knowledge about the animal world, we still have learned a lot of details and facts about the park, animals and actualities. thank you camp for the nice experience!

The tented village is on the edge of the national park and we were there for the safari experience. The tents have a small bathroom which was fine for the time we were there but space is at a premium it’s fairly basic. The bed was comfortable and a fan kept us cool but this isn’t luxury camping. The high points though is Solomen a phenomenally enthusiastic and talented naturalist with extraordinary eyesight. We did an afternoon and early morning safari and whilst we didn’t see the elusive leopard plenty of elephants eagles kingfishers and crocodiles more than made up for it .The food we had far exceeded our expectations it was very good and all the team at the safari made us very welcome and the foot bath at the end of the day awaiting outside tithe tent was a lovely touch
