Happy face iconLiked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Love the idea of staying in a jungle camp, but this is really in an area of dry bushes, a total stretch to call it jungle. Food was amazing. Camp set up was nice. But very important to note that this is actually about 40km from the entrance to the park where you do the safaris. There are options much closer. It’s 30 minutes each way to and from the park, for 2 safaris that’s 2 hours of travel. Everyone was extremely nice but really wanted tips. For this star rating and the very high cost, tipping should not only be included, but staff shouldn’t make you feel like you need to tip them to supplement what seems like underpayment by the property. Our safari guide even said he was a volunteer and worked for tips!

Fantastic stay at Mahoora!
Our stay at Mahoora was fantastic. We booked the full day all inclusive safari package, which gave us one afternoon and one morning safari at Udalawawe. Special thanks to Avinka, who looked after us and made our stay special. Avinka was also our guide during both safaris - his passion for the wildlife at Udalawawe was one of a kind and we learned a lot of different details we otherwise wouldn’t have (we realized a lot of other safaris did not even have a guide). Our driver was fantastic as well and we felt safe at all times. We also highly appreciated that our tour was a private one, making this a truly personal experience. The food at Mahoora was very tasty and exceeded our expectations. We were greeted with a 5 course lunch, a mix of Sri Lankan fusion. Dinner could not have been more memorable - a private table in front of a bonfire, with a 6 course meal under the stars. The tent itself was very cozy and the bed - to our surprise - quite comfortable. We would definitely recommend Mahoora for a memorable and unique experience at Udalawawe!

Excellent campground near Uda Walale
The staff does an excellent job of making you feel taken care of. Food was delicious and generous. Everything from the pick up, welcome, meals, and national park guide were very well organized. Our naturalist was really knowledgeable during our tour. The tent itself was quite basic, but we slept comfortably and had everything we needed.

Fabulous Safari Experience
We stayed here two nights recently and had a fantastic time. Our guide Udaya was very helpful and knowledgeable and we saw crocodiles, monitor lizards, elephants, deer and mongooses whilst out on safari. The food was sublime as well and the rest of the staff were very attentive. Would thoroughly recommend.

雖然衛浴有些簡單，但以帳蓬露營而言是很豪華的住宿環境，住宿在大自然中，還享有酒店式的服務真的很棒，給住客很高的隱私空間。
