"So it turns out this property (Mahoora Tented Safari Camp) is exactly the same as the similarly named 'Big Game Camp'. Don't be fooled by the location on hotels.com map - they are one in the same place. But one costs 9x more than the other one. Yes. 9 times more.
You will get picked up at the drop-off point by the same staff in the same car, offered the same welcome refreshments, have the same dinner, and be staying in the same campsite with the same staff and amenities, regardless if you...

"This place is amazing and should be more than 2 stars. The home cooked food is delicious, the location is perfect, the rooms are clean and well appointed and the staff couldn't be more helpful and kind. They also organised a fantastic safari for our family. It was a wonderful stay. "

"Rigtig god beliggenhed hvis du er til kite-surfing. Vi var overraskede over prisniveau for mad og drikke. I og med der ikke var andre steder i området virkede det lidt dyrt - især for unge mennesker. Men hyggelig atmosfære."

"The staff were really friendly, amazing food and really gorgeous place. They took us on a wildlife tour where we saw otters and loris all on their grounds!
There is not much in the local area so you need to keep this in mind if planning to visit a shop or restaurant during your stay, it’s not really possible "

"This is a primitive camping site. Yes the tent is large and there is an outdoor toilet and shower which is delightful but this is still just a camp site. No other facilities. There is no A/C and it can get quite hot in the tent. We had a wonderful candle lit dinner by the chef who also lit us a fire which was beautiful under the stars. Some holes in the tent need to be fixed due to mosquitos. "

"Leopard Trails is a fabulous rustic luxury camp in the beautiful Wilpattu Park. This was one of our favorite stays in all of Sri Lanka! The Naturalist guide who took us on safari was attentive, knowledgable, and a genuinely great guy. Back at camp, the rooms were comfortable and the private dining candle lit dinners were magically romantic. I recommend the suite with the plunge pool, it was bliss after a hot and dusty drive on safari. Do not miss the opportunity to visit this special place! "
"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! "
"The first nights dinner was horrible cos we ordered the wrong stuff & lunch & breafsdt sandwiches were not so good. So the next day for breakfast we ordered Sri Lankan milk rice, string hoppers & Pol Rotti., chicken & fish curry, potato & dhal curry. It was absolutely super, excellent. The fruit was so good. It was to die for. The papaya especially."
