the camp is very close to the wilpattu park, where you can do great safaris. the tents are nice. you can stay in the middle of the amazing nature.

it was a little hard to find something to eat for the kids who don’t eat spicy food. we would have liked to get something to drink during the day, but the staff was hard to find sometimes.

Evening dinner under the stars

Camp has no atmosphere. There were only 3 tents occupied but we were put right near the reception, looking onto the main path. We booked the all inclusive experience as our last treat of our holiday. Safari that was included was a disaster. The " naturalist" hardly spoke to us in 4 hours, whilst the driver drove as fast as possible through the park. It was impossible to see any animals and those we wizzed past eg spotted deer, the naturalist told us we would not stop for as they are " common animals". Tents are hot and not luxurious, you will need the noisy fan on to sleep .so no sounds if the night. When we woke in the morning the camp was deserted and no staff. We eventually found a person cleaning and asked if we could have some coffee..he just shrugged. Later staff arrived but told us we would have to wait until 8 am when we had ordered breakfast to get anything. Gave feedback on all of this directly to Mahoora and they told us they were " investigating" but after 10 days no response. They obviously don't care. Do not waste your money here. Stay elsewhere and hire an independent guide and driver

a real treat staying in glamping tent, good level of privacy between tents

hard for resort to control but very noisy partying could be heard at night which impacted quiet isolated location! apparently festival celebrations from neighbours!

Location was great. Peaceful and calming. Dinner was really lovely under the stars by the camp fire. Staff so accommodating and friendly. Couldn’t do enough for us.

Can’t find any faults. Just amazing

Staff were amazing. Got lost on the way and they immediately responded and came to help. Food was amazing. 4 course dinner by the fire despite arriving 2 hours late. Tent is huge and very comfortable and well equipped. Very knowledgeable about animals. Great value for money - night walk, cooking demo, food, safari all included.

The team was great! Our Nature Guide, Priyadarshana, was extremely knowledgeable and was able to answer any questions and teach us about all the beautiful creatures we can across on our safari and night walk. Our driver, Dimuthu, also had great knowledge and experience in the park and really wanted the best tour for us. We did half day safari and he managed to track and find sloth bear, leopard, terrapins, eagle, turtles, wild boar, fox and other species of bird which was all backed up with great information from Priyadarshana. Sudann’s service couldn’t have been better and matched that of a 5star hotel in London! Overall, we had a great time and the team really delivered to make it special.

We found a scorpion (apparently not dangerous) in our tent but we found this all part of the experience so not a negative for us.

Absolutely the best experience we've had in Sri Lanka! Super friendly and professional staff, absolutely amazing and fresh food(even for my sensitive stomach), lovely fresh drinks and cocktails, perfect location surrounded by nature and wildlife, a unique open air restaurant area, dining underneath a breathtaking starry night sky, breakfast and lunch surrounded by wildlife, and a super deluxe and clean safari tent.

The campus setting is nice. They make an effort to create a great atmosphere during the dinner with the fire. Really liked to have a Naturalist during the game drives. We were very lucky to see several Leopards and Elephants.

The food is not at the level it should be for the price you pay. Although the setting is nice, you get cheapest wines and the fish and chicken is dry or served cold. The tents are ok, but the sanitary installations are having some troubles. No warm water for the shower. Overall clearly overpriced for what you get.

It was an experience staying in Mahoora camp. Located near the entrance of Wilpattu park it provides a unique setup. Tent and the rest of the facilities provided are handled with the utmost care, taken into consideration that you live directly in the nature. We have booked all inclusive stay and we enjoyed dinner along with a night walk in the park with our guide Sumith who is very knowledgeable. Also safari was a blast, Sumith and driver were really experienced and we spotted a leopard twice!

You probably see insects inside the tent which is normal considering the location.

Beautiful location. Friendly team. Very helpful booking with Shivani. Excellent knowledgeable guide Captain Raj. Very friendly local villages we met during our walks. Superb safari! We saw 4 leopards & tons of other amazing animals & nature.

Nothing

The Environment and friendly staff

The dedicated and professional staff here went out of their way to make our stay an unforgettable experience during a tricky time for all in March brought on by the pandemic. We were treated to fabulous bird-watching, a night drive to spot nocturnal animals, nature walks, wonderful food and an in-depth cooking lesson with explanations of the health-giving properties of the ingredients.

All good.

Meals and camp experience were exceptional. Activities included a morning and afternoon safari drive. We saw a great diversity of wildlife (sloth bear, spotted deer, crocodile, elephant, mongoose, peacock, variety of birds) unfortunately the leopards were shy and we didn't get to see them. I only wish that they would have had a pair of binoculars for people to share. The tented camp is very comfortable with two large room fans to keep the sleeping temperature comfortable. Dinner was served under the stars with a nice camp fire providing excellent atmosphere. Service was outstanding. WIfi was available in the "lounge"

Exceed our expectations- nothing that we didn't like. Wish there were a pair of binoculars available. Would have liked to have had a beer at teatime. But alcoholic beverages were only offered at dinner.
