Mahoora Wilpattu by Eco Team

At Mahoora Tented Safari Camps Wilpattu, you can live in a small, 8-acre private wildlife sanctuary that mixes modern conveniences with the wilderness of a dry zone forest.

Sleep under the forest stars in Sri Lanka’s largest safari tent, then wake up to a dreamy dawn and a cup of Ceylon tea in a remote area of the jungle.

Mahoora Tented Safari Camps Wilpattu is located in one of Sri Lanka’s most famous wildlife zones bordering the Wilpattu National Park, the largest national park in Sri Lanka and famous for its leopards. Elephants, jungle cats, barking deer, and numerous birds and butterflies roam by the camp’s lake, which is surrounded by a bush forest..

Why do we love Mahoora Wilpattu?

Dining in the jungle with fireflies and fruit bats is certainly a surreal and immersive experience. We do love Mahoora Camp Wilpattu because unlike staying in a conventional hotel, the tented safari camp provides an itinerary of sheer adventure and also reduces travel time, where otherwise the expansive acreage necessitates a lengthier drive to reach the animals.

Mahoora Camp is situated next to Wilpattu National Park’s southern border, close to a lake so you can watch the wild elephants and birds roam around nearby.

What can I look forward to?

In the ancient language of Sri Lanka’s Vedda (indigenous) people, Maha-Hoora means ‘great one’, that is, a very very important person. You will be treated as such.

Comfort

Mahoora Wilpattu offers 10 spacious, clean and comfortable tents in all, spread out to offer maximum privacy. Each of the safari tents features a bedroom, a private bathroom, and a tranquil outdoor living space. The comfortable full-sized mattresses are draped in the softest linen, and the wall-to-wall carpeting gives a cosy, jungle-nest feeling. The bathroom contains a hot/cold shower, toilet, washbasin, and mirror.

With all the tiny touches, such as torches, umbrellas, and luggage racks, taken care of, you experience a genuinely comfortable home in the wild.
