Once that issue was cleared, we truely enjoyed our stay… the Mahoora tent is amazing, in a stunning environment. Service is great, candle dinner is amazing… and the safari organization was perfect. ##### Gilles-Edouard Stayed 1 night in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kevin Feb 15, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The team at Big Game was amazing! We booked because we really wanted to do a safari and that was amazing but we were blown away be everything else! The food was above and beyond what I expected with 4 courses for dinner, 3 at lunch , and a very full breakfast. They list breakfast as continental but it's much more than that. The first tent we were in was fine but we upgraded part way through and really appreciated the extra space! ##### Kevin Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Plat Aug 24, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Dejligt sted midt ude i den smukke jungle.

Very helpful courteous staff and excellent knowledgeable guide for nature walks. Solar power and recycling of plastics helps eco credentials. Basic shower facility but ‘does the job’. Food was very authentic Sri Lankan. And what could be better than sitting under a star lit sky eating dinner with a central wood fire! A very short drive to Wilpattu national park entrance. All in all a pleasant comfortable stay. Very good value bearing in mind luxury tented accommodation on Sri Lanka is three times the cost! ##### EDMUND Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### JulieD, Brighton, UK Feb 13, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Staying under canvas and eating under the stars in a jungle. ##### JulieD Stayed 1 night in Jan 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Laura Sep 16, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Camping de luxe en pleine nature Super experience a Big Game.

It was an absolutely amazing experience to stay there. It’s a luxury campsite with large spacious tents. The beds are very comfy and each tent has a fully equipped bathroom including hot water. The campsite is beautiful and is located right in the middle of the jungle, so you can wake up to the lovely sound of birds and insects in the morning. The staff were so enthusiastic and knowledgeable and friendly. The hotel manager is a big fan of David Attenborough and can speak in a very knowledgeable manner about all of the wildlife in the park, it was truly very humbling to listen to him and how much they all cared about conservation. We were very pleased to see that the whole site was very eco-friendly, lots of it was run on solar power, and it was completely plastic-free. They give you stylish glass bottles with clean water in them so that you don’t have to use lots of plastic bottles. In the evening there is tea on the lawn followed by an incredible dinner in a clearing in the jungle. Before dinner a member of staff came to the tent and collected us and then led us through the campsite which was all lit up by lanterns through the jungle and into this beautiful clearing where tables had been set up under the stars. It was truly amazing to sit under the stars and have a freshly prepared meal (the food is included in the cost), and a cold beer after a long day Safari. We had an amazing stay. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Mar 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Dec 29, 2018 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Disappointing experience It's definitely not a luxury camping experience. The facility is not clean and food is so so. It's not worth for the money we spent. The most serious problem is getting contact with the camp. We want to do a full day safari and we tried all means to contact the hotel - email/phone/whatsapp/hotels.com link but there's no reply. We end up arranging safari through our driver. It's quite disappointing. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Dec 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### cindy Dec 1, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Génial !

Tout était parfait : la tente , le barbecue du soir , la petite marche du soir pour nous montrer la faune , le safari réservé avec l hôtel (125$ pour 2 personnes ), et l accueil .Un remerciement à Kamel pour son accueil et ses services ##### cindy Stayed 1 night in Nov 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### STEPHEN Oct 21, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Fabulously unique experience Its a campsite, If you want a hotel experience dont go here however, For a great stay with a real difference its fab. The staff are really helpful the food was good the tent was great and there were plenty of thoughtful touches, Torch provided, power to charge phones, Safari picnic breakfast supplied even though we didn't use their safari etc. There were Loads of bugs and critters, frogs in the shower etc but Hey, Its a jungle. Take plenty of deet and enjoy it for what it is, we would stay here again. ##### STEPHEN Stayed 1 night in Oct 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### scarlett Apr 12, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great safari We stayed for 2 nights in April 2018\. Staff were lovely from the minute we arrived. So friendly and helpful. We did the full day safari offered by Big Game Camp which was brilliant. The naturalist knew so much, was really friendly and accommodating. We saw leopards, elephants, crocodiles, monkeys and wild boar, amongst other animals (but I think we were particularly lucky). It was a brilliant day, would recommend. The tent was very nice and spacious and had a comfortable bed and a fan. The bathroom was in a separate ‘room’ within the tent. The shower was just cold water and not strong so probably not one for washing your hair in. Basic but nice. In the evenings we were taken to the campfire for a drink - lovely. Then dinner was outside, romantic. The food was tasty but the main course was disappointingly English on both nights - barbecued meat and fish with boiled potatoes and veg, plus some rice. Drinks were reasonably priced. After dinner it was a little lacklustre as it was assumed we would go back to the tent which was dark with a small light - not ideal at 9pm! But we asked if we could stay at the campfire and have a glass of wine and the staff were very polite and said this was ok. It would better if there was a more lit area to sit in the evening and maybe a bar. Breakfast was better with fresh fruit, toast, roti. Camp was very difficult to find, you had to follow the sign for ‘Eco team’. ##### scarlett ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Jan 9, 2018 Liked: Staff & service #### Not quite a luxurious camp experience Booked for a night stay due to its proximity to Wilpattu National Park which was nice for the early morning safari tour. Staff were very nice and friendly but seems a bit disorganized sometimes. We also expected a bit more from the condition of the camp itself due to their pricing and marketing as a luxury camp. The camp is only furnished with a simple double bed and an extremely small table with a small lamp which barely light up the room at night. Also encountered a big rat in the attached bathroom in the tent at night because the tent had holes which the rats can enter and this is a bit unnerving for someone who is afraid of rats. The night has a big dip in temperature and therefore was a bit chilly but the only blanket provided was a thin sheet. Had to get up to put on thicker clothes to keep warm. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jan 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Petri Jul 31, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great camp place First - this is a camp with tents so you cannot expect hotel level amenities. Unless you have been camping before it may be dirty and discusting. If you have been camping you probably will find this quite luxurious, clean and working. The tents are relatively big and have working toilets and showers. They are clean - considering they are in a "jungle" or at least in rural woods. We had a few scorpions (tiny) and lizards accompanying us, but they are not dangerous. The staff was really friendly and wanted to make you feel as much home as possible. Having breakfast and dinner outside was nice. The food was simple but tasted good. There was no options available, but it was possible before hand to let them know what you will eat, so I guess everyone got something according to their preferencies. If you want to experience a stay in the wilderness I totally recommend, but do remember that this is not a hotel, it really is a tent camp. ##### Petri Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2017 ### 8/10 Good #### Gavin, Sri Lanka Apr 17, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort Camp and site was well maintained and clean. The staff was very welcoming and helpful. The Breakfast and Dinning location is very beautiful, and the meals were on point. The safari they organized was totally worth it since we saw everything we had to in a matter of a few hours. Will always go back. ##### Gavin ### 8/10 Good #### Achu Jan 5, 2017 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### PERFECT GETAWAY IN THE WILD! Totally loved every minute of our stay! We were warmly welcomed and all the staff were super friendly and always willing to help. Our safari was well organized and we were very lucky to have seen a lot of different wildlife. The BBQ dinner with a campfire and candles was amazing under a clear sky and plenty of stars. Can't think of anything to complain of. Perfect 2 days spending our wedding anniversary! ##### Achu ### 6/10 Okay #### Teerapol Jan 4, 2017 Disliked: Cleanliness, room comfort #### Mal was anderes Eine bewegende Once-in-a-lifetime-Erfahrung war es nicht, dennoch war die Nacht im Zelt mal was anderes. Der Service kann verbessert werden. Das Buffet zum Abendessen bestand aus durchschnittlicher westlicher Küche. Bei der Safari gab es außer Rehen, Pfauen und Krokodilen nichts zu sehen. ##### Teerapol ### 10/10 Excellent #### Steve, Dubai Jun 29, 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great tented camp experience! On arrival the staff had no record of our booking. We also discovered they did not take credit card and we did not have enough cash for the game drives.....however, after some initial confusion, we were shown our tent, which was fine - big enough, surrounded by bush, birds and butterflies and with hammock! The staff were excellent - kind and attentive. We went for our game drive (but were unable to negotiate a discount for 2 drives - maybe you'll have more luck! we paid $110 per drive for 2 people, $220 for both drives). The park is gorgeous - more forested than Africa, but fewer people. Safari vehicle ideal. Saw a leopard!! After the drive, they took us to the ATMs in town to get cash, which took several attempts in four banks, but we got it! Problems solved!! Back for tea and biscuits, and get ready for dinner. There were holes in the tent and rats had smelled our food. However, they told us not to keep food in the tent and they took it away and looked after it, sewed up the holes and problem completely solved! Dinner was BBQ sat around an open fire - fantastic!!! They serve wine - pricey at LKR1000 a glass! Next day up at 5 for the morning drive - tea and coffee and snacks offered, and off to the park. All great - no leopards or bears but lakes, birds, scenery. Breakfast served from the vehicle in the wild!!! Wonderful! Back to pack and off to Colombo. We arranged our own transport as their was far more expensive. Overall - brilliant - totally recommend! ##### Steve ### 8/10 Good #### Ryo, Tokyo May 8, 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### The service was great!! not many various animals The Staff service was amazing. they were always trying to make us as comfortable as they could with full of their hospitality. It was exactly professional service. If we have one thing to notice, whereas the manager told us we could get hot shower, we couldn't. The time was very hot, so actually no problem. We hope Wilpattu National Park will get better to see more various animals in the near future. スタッフのサービスはかなり良かったです。いつも可能な限り、私たちが快適に過ごせるよう暖かいおもてなしをしてくれていました。 ひとつ挙げるとするなれば、ホットシャワーは使えるとマネージャーの方がおっしゃていましたが、冷たい水のシャワーでした。暑い時期だったので、問題はありませんでしたが。 今後ウィルパットゥ国立公園がもっとたくさんの種の動物が見れるよう発展しますように ##### Ryo ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rosario 27 Aug 23, 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Outstanding!!
