โWow, what an experience. When we pulled up into the camp, there was an elephant just there (a tusker no less). The standards were consistently high from there. We were well looked after by the manager Ravi, with impeccable service throughout. My wife's gluten free requirement being well looked after. The views are stunning, the food was great. At camp we sat and watched birds, and beyond seeing an elephant we saw a leopard just crossing the road outside! Before going to bed... Shine a torch into...

โFrom start to finish the staff made our trip perfect. Incredibly friendly, attentive, always looking to do something a little extra to make your stay unforgettable.
Incredible food and accommodation (with hot running water and full comfort!) in a romantic setting surrounded by nature, private safaris in stunning Yala National Park led by guides who are passionate about the animals in the park - we saw countless birds, water buffalo, lizards, a wild boar family, even a sloth bear!โ
โThis hotel is our usual place to stay when we go to Kataragama with the whole family. Itโs very welcoming and a happy place to stay for the night. Very clean and food is great.โ
โMakini Bush Camp is an absolute gem in Yala! The stunning tented rooms are beautifully decorated and equipped with all the comforts you could wish for, including a refreshing plunge poolโperfect for cooling off after a walk in the bush.
The staff goes above and beyond to ensure an unforgettable stay, accommodating a range of experiences, including a half-day safari inside the park and a delightful nature walk around the camp. Our guide, Mr. Koushalya, was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate...
โIncredible place to spend a few nights while we enjoyed the peace and serenity as well as two safaris. The food was the best we had during our stay in Sri Lanka and the staff was incredible as well. โ
โFirst of all,the staff were so welcoming and so attentive,the hotel itself is beautiful and very modern/simplistic,which is a style we liked very much. They organised the safari at Yala for us which was brilliant - only wish we had stayed longer - our favourite hotel in Sri Lankaโ
โThere was an infinity swimming pool overlooking, the wilderness, it was stunning and unforgettable. The hotel was to a high standard overall. Would return. โ
โThe hotel was very nice and it was so nice to have a swim in the pool when we arrived.
The hotel was very clean and the facilities and standarts was very high. A perfect hotel to the price!
The owner of the hotel was so kind and helpful, and helped us to arrange a full day safari through the hotel in Yala National Park.
We were extremely lucky and had the best driver on our Safari, he knew everything about the animals, the nature in the park and knew exactly where to find them. On top of that...
โHotel a 3 km de la ville, assez รฉloignรฉ sans service a proximitรฉ.
Safari trรฉs cher.
J'avais rรฉsรฉrvรฉ une chambre mais a mon arrivรฉe il n'y en avait pas alors on m'a proposรฉ le dortoir au meme tarif se que j'ai refusรฉ et aprรฉs discussion j'ai obtenu une tente-chambre.
Trรฉs bien dans la grosse savane mais prรฉs de la grande route pas nรฉcessaire du tout.
Personnel serviable mais on sans que l'argent et le but premier du centre.

โVery nice place for hair relaxing and enjoying the resort with a few birds, monkeys, squirrels and butterflies. Loved the place. Thanks to the manager Yomal for looking after me. I will come back again. ๐โ
โAll in all, happy to stay here, just be prepared to do a lot of extra work to check-in.

โWe had a wonderfully relaxing few days. The staff were friendly and helpful and the meals were most enjoyable. Our room was immaculately clean and the water was hot. It was lovely to be able to sit out on a balcony and read. The manager arranged a great safari to Bandula National Park and provided us with a very tasty breakfast to take with us. On leaving, they were able to arrange transport to our next hotel. The recently extended and beautifully decorated hotel is located in a quiet area...
