    As a camping enthusiast, I was pleasantly surprised by my stay at Big Game - Yala. The pick up was prompt, the facilities were clean, and the camp staff were friendly and respectful. The rustic venue, with Tiki torches lit in the evening, created an authentic camping atmosphere. The dinner and drinks served were delicious and the servers were exceptionally friendly. The camp manager, Oosha, along with her naturalist, provided a fabulous experience. The tents were amazing, with no bugs, a great shower, and a comfortable bed. The overall experience exceeded my expectations and I would highly recommend this hotel.

    I recommend this hotel.

    We had a fantastic stay at the camp, with impeccable hospitality from the staff. The tents were clean and beautifully decorated, and the food was excellent. The camp organized amazing safari drives with knowledgeable guides who went the extra mile to ensure we had a memorable experience. The camp's attention to detail, such as the flaming torches at night, added to the safari spirit. We highly recommend the side trip to Wedisitikanda for breathtaking views. our stay was wonderful with plenty of wildlife sightings.

    The large number of game vehicles at the beach of the Indian Sea somewhat took away from the natural experience.

    Mr Nandakumara Siriwardhane, the camp manager, was professional, knowledgeable, and provided excellent personal attention. the tents were cool, with en-suite bathrooms and comfortable beds. the camp had wifi, and the dining experience, including the delicious BBQ and bonfire, was great. the staff also catered well for gluten-free guests. the safari organized by the camp was amazing, with a knowledgeable guide who was enthusiastic and able to answer all of our biology-related questions. the setting was beautiful, and despite a few frogs in the tent, it added to the overall experience.

    Felt really welcomed, no complaints at all.

    The value for money at this campsite was excellent, and the room was clean and comfortable with a charming vintage touch. The location was surrounded by beautiful greenery and wildlife, creating a tranquil atmosphere. The staff at this campsite were incredibly welcoming and hospitable, making our stay even more enjoyable.

    The morning meal could have been improved with a wider variety of local dishes.

    We traveled to Sri Lanka and stayed at Big Game - Yala for an unforgettable experience. The staff was knowledgeable and the half day safari was out of this world. The luxury tent was amazing and dining around the bonfire created a romantic atmosphere. The camp manager, Mr. Nandakumara Siriwardhane, was a great host and made us feel welcome throughout our stay. The service was top-notch, with staff going above and beyond, even carrying our bags in the rain. The food was delicious, and the facilities were impressive considering we were in the middle of the jungle. The WiFi worked well, and we received extra water upon checkout.

    Would definitely recommend this hotel.

    For the price we paid, our stay at this hotel was worth every penny. The room was comfortable and spacious, and the location was perfect, being very close to the park entrance. The staff treated us with utmost kindness and were always ready to help.

    The hotel breakfast menu could use some improvement.

    We had a lovely stay surrounded by nature at this hotel. The staff was really nice and friendly, making our experience even better. Despite feeling unwell from the long journey, we still enjoyed our time here. The safari we booked was fantastic, with a knowledgeable guide and driver. The tent was clean and spacious, with the added convenience of an attached bathroom. The dinner barbecue around the campfire was a great idea, and the staff even packed us a takeaway breakfast for our early morning safari. a great experience!

    Would definitely recommend this hotel.

    The location of the hotel is absolutely stunning, surrounded by the beauty of the forest. the tents are equipped with everything you need and are kept clean and well-maintained. the staff is incredibly professional and accommodating, making sure all your needs are met during your stay. the safari experience organized by the hotel is top-notch, providing an unforgettable adventure in the wilderness.

    The breakfast could use some improvement, with a limited variety and not enough vegetables to balance out the pastries.
