The food was pretty good overall but vegan options were limited for dinner. The safari was the best part with well maintained jeeps and a guide. Not a fan of the bathroom in the tent, it is hard to ignore the smells in a small tent ##### Darshan Stayed 1 night in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Charlotte 23 Dec 2024 #### Brilliant glamping experience The tent was very spacious and clean. The beds were comfy and the entertainment was good. There were board games to play, books to read, wi-fi in the communal areas and sports to play. There was a BBQ meal in the evening which was very good and the children could roast marshmallows around the fire. Overall a great experience ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/DBDAAB2C8B80E4AB383B0B68F9DC5F22EB31910B1734966010241.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/19F83BFA83BAA16ACCF68ADF26AFB9D65C52F5961734966010180.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/5DC7CCFA09BDEDB28FFB549E7DD1C2F672E28FC31734966011281.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Charlotte Stayed 1 night in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Noriaki 30 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities All staff members are so kind and friendly. Every service was perfect and comfortable for me from the checking in to checking out. We booked the hotel very last minutes, but the staff helped me for the meal arrangement and the safari arrangement smoothly so there was no inconvenience and negative comments for the stay! I’d like to come and visit here again. ##### Noriaki Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jeff 13 May 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I’ve done a lot of Safaris and seen a lot of Safari camps, and this camp/glamping setup was one of the best. I mean electricity, hot water, and fan.. what’s not to love. By far, the best meal offered was breakfast as I just felt dinner was a bit too basic. I also felt that they could have outlined the price individual drinks. I mean, I knew how much dinner and breakfast cost, but I was a little in the dark as to the rest of it. However, the Safari was very cool, and even though we just missed seeing a leopard, we did see two Sloth Bears, which I’m told are even harder to see. All and all, Ysla Bih Game was a very nice camp ##### Jeff Stayed 2 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 5 Feb 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Kevin Great stay here.

Well run by Saman. Very comfortable tent with adequate en suite shower etc. Dinner around the fire was straight out of the film Out of Africa. Very good red wine. Didn’t try the white and the food was excellent. The safari was well worth the early start with a stop for breakfast served in the safari jeep. We had a drive and guide from the camp and a guide from the park too. They are amazing at spotting the game. You need at least 2 nights and it is a wonderful family experience too. ##### Jane Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### Chr.K., Frankfurt 14 Feb 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities You can not be closer to nature. It's amazing to listen to the sound of nature especially in the morning. To join the safari is recommended as the game does not provide big entertainment except peacefull tent areas with relaxing hammrocks. The staff is very friendly and caring. The tents are almost like Hotel rooms and perfectly equiped. Dinner is served as BBQ and it is very tasty. Breakfast is offered with fresh fruits. Once you participate to the Safari you are guided perfectly and you also get a nice bush-breakfast. I can recommend the accommodation for a stay of 2-3 days and in combination with a pre-booked Safari. ##### Chr.K.

Great service, wonderful food, and most importantly an amazing closeness to nature. ##### Mathias Stayed 1 night in Jan 2020 ### 6/10 Okay #### Denzil, Boston MA, USA 24 Jan 2020 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities service staff was wonderful, but needs quite a bit of training. Staff shift supervisor was much more experience and guest oriented than the Guest Relations manager. I briefly saw the camp manager and there was no sincerity. She was as the elusive leopard. Food was excellent so was the minor staff. ##### Denzil Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Giuseppina 8 Jan 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### amp and Safari Nice camp. Tent was lovely and spotless. I booked my safari through the camp. The nighttime (afternoon) safari was my favourite. Much smaller area to cover and fewer cars than in the morning. We saw two leopards. One having a nap and another trying to get some dinner. Lots of other stuff to see, elephants, crocodiles. Buffalo, Spotted Deer, Eagles, the list goes on. Would recommend. ##### Giuseppina Stayed 1 night in Jan 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### Maggie 29 Dec 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Trevlig stämning på campen Mycket bra service och trevlig och glad personal.

Staff very friendly and helpful. Nothing too much trouble. Lunch and eve meal good. Nice to sit around the bonfire under the night sky. Great morning safari and lucky to see 4 leopards amongst many other animals and birds.

Man føler sig velkommen fra det første øjeblik. Virkelig lækker mad - 3 retter til både morgenmad og aftensmad. Hyggeligt med bål hver aften. Toilet- og badefaciliteterne var helt fine. Så hyggelig lejr. ##### Michael Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Christopher 12 Nov 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Aussie travellers Absolute pleasure staying at this camp.

Thank you so much. ##### Christopher Stayed 1 night in Nov 2018 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 31 Oct 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort Zeltstadt im abgelegenen Wald. Nettes Ambiente mit Lagerfeuer, BBQ Grill und Natur pur! Es gibt Teetime & ein Willkmensgetränk. Leider besteht keine Möglichkeit in die Stadt zu kommen da die TukTuks nicht auf dem schlammigen Weg bis zum Camp fahren. Dadurch entsteht eine Art Monopol was bei Lunch & Dinner mit für dieses Land überzogen Preisen ausgenutzt wird. Das Camp bietet Safari Touren an. Die Ganztagestour (200 Dollar 6x18Uhr) ist wesentlich billiger, aber bei Ankuft wird erzählt dass man doch bitte die zwei Touren (5:30-11 & 14:30-18uhr jeweils 125 Dollar) buchen soll, das wäre besser.... (um nochmal einen zusätzlichen Lunch zu verkaufen???). Ist allerdings nicht so da der Weg vom Camp zurm Nationalpark jeweils 45-60min. dauert und man diese Zeit verliert... Das Serviceteam hat sich um alles gekümmert und war super nett. Aber am Ende blieb beinuns ein fader Beigeschmack und wir fühlten uns leicht abgezogt. Unser Tipp: Wer das Zelt nicht unbedingtt braucht, lieber ein Hotel/HomeStay in der Stadt buchen... ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kevin, USA 12 Aug 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort The staff was great very attentive to its customers. The tents were great and the meals were also very good. The stay also included a safari and a guide which also was great. I would recommend this place to anyone. ##### Kevin Stayed 1 night in Aug 2018 ### 6/10 Okay #### M., België 9 Jul 2018 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Tja tja... Vriendelijk personeel die willen dat je je goed voelt maar dit komt soms wel wat opdringerig over. Wij hadden een luxe tent geboekt, maar vergis je niet dit is geen luxe. Het is echt back to basic (zonder wifi) de tenten zijn bovendien erg verouderd met overal kleine gaatjes tot gevolg waardoor spinnen en insecten onvermijdbaar zijn. De tenten zijn ook zeer krap en de “badkamer” moet dringend vernieuwd worden, wij hebben ons hier niet willen douchen omdat deze te vies waren. Prijs kwaliteit vinden wij dit niet oké. De safaries vonden we wel goed met een aangename jeep en gids. ##### M.

When the team learned of this, they wanted to do Wilpattu (sister camp) ... and they succeeded. We did a full day safari with superb driver and guide. Food was excellent. Room was tent luxury. Clean, comfortable, out with nature and lovely views of the stars. The camp manager went out of his way to interact with guests. A real wildlife experience with a real human, personal touch. ##### Mark Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 9 Oct 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Safari hotel Excellent tents great staff and a real safari experience.

Highly recommend Big Game Camp! The food is fabulous and included a silver service dinner with a bonfire under the stars. Definitely recommend full board it's excellent value! It's best to book your safari before arrival though as we didn't and missed out on getting a guide. Not that it seemed to matter, we saw so many animals and we were privileged to see a leopard drinking from a watering hole right beside us. The staff are wonderful and can't do enough for you. Loved Big Game Camp! ##### Debbie Stayed 1 night in Jul 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kelly, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia 3 Jul 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### A glamping experience in Yala National Park! Was a great stay, with fantastic attentive staff who welcomed us, even though we arrived quite late (around 8pm). Would highly recommend this to couples, friends + families looking to visit the National Park. We stayed only for 1 night, but think its more than enough if you do one afternoon and one morning safari tour. Breakfast was better than average (for Sri Lanka), but dinner was fantastic! 3 course meal (soup, bbq roasted meats with pasta and veg, fruit salad + icecream). ##### Kelly Stayed 1 night in Jun 2017 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Kottawatta Village](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Udawalawa-Hotels-Kottawatta-Village.h12283592.Hotel-Information) > > [Guitar Bay Arugambay](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Arugam-Bay-Hotels-GUITAR-BAY-ARUGAMBAY.h39017185.Hotel-Information) > > [Gabaa Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Habarana-Hotels-Gabaa-Resort-Spa.h95293327.Hotel-Information) > > [Oreeka - Katunayake Airport Transit Hotels](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Negombo-Hotels-Oreeka-Hotel-Complimentary-Airport-Transfer.h14687310.Hotel-Information) > > [Uga Bay - Pasikuda](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pasikuda-Hotels-Uga-Bay-By-Uga-Escapes.h7760824.Hotel-Information) > > [The Villas Wadduwa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Wadduwa-Hotels-The-Villas-Wadduwa.h21399796.Hotel-Information) > > [Kethaka Aga](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Thissamaharama-Hotels-Kethaka-Aga.h22876073.Hotel-Information) > > [Mountain Heaven](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ella-Hotels-Mountain-Heaven.h11741687.Hotel-Information) > > [Camellia Hills](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hatton-Hotels-Camellia-Hills.h48393070.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson Hotel Kandy](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kandy-Hotels-OZO-Kandy-Sri-Lanka.h10442617.Hotel-Information) > > [Koggala Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Koggala-Hotels-Koggala-Beach-Hotel.h7871657.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson Blu Resort Galle](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Galle-Hotels-Amari-Galle.h16267123.Hotel-Information) > > [Maalu Maalu Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pasikuda-Hotels-Maalu-Maalu-Resort-Spa.h6504916.Hotel-Information) > > [Elephant Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sevanagala-Hotels-Elephant-Lodge.h39669042.Hotel-Information) > > [Green Turtle Villa by The Serendipity Collection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kosgoda-Hotels-Green-Turtle-Villa.h22575245.Hotel-Information) > > [Uppuveli Beach by DSK](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Trincomalee-Hotels-Uppuveli-Beach-By-DSK.h107128771.Hotel-Information) > > [Yala Wilderness Safari Camp](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tissamaharama-Hotels-Yala-Wilderness-Safari-Camp.h35832683.Hotel-Information) > > [North Gate Jaffna](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Jaffna-Hotels-North-Gate-By-Jetwing.h22276412.Hotel-Information) > > [MOI Ella by DBI](https://www.expedia.co.uk/MOI-Ella-By-DBI.h83271446.Hotel-Information) > > [Sunrise Pasikuda](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pasikuda-Hotels-Sunrise-By-Jetwing.h14814270.Hotel-Information) > > [Waraka - Udawalawe ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Udawalawa-Hotels-Waraka-Udawalawe.h107742896.Hotel-Information) > > [Roo Mansala Boutique Villas](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sigiriya-Hotels-Roo-Mansala-Boutique-Villas.h23204786.Hotel-Information) > > [Tisara Villas](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Koggala-Hotels-Tisara-Villas.h41949021.Hotel-Information) > > [Kahanda Kanda](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Angulugaha-Hotels-Kahanda-Kanda.h11263998.Hotel-Information) > > [Jie Jie Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Panadura-Hotels-Jie-Jie-Beach-By-Jetwing.h15440520.Hotel-Information) > > [Clio Ella Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ella-Jungle-Resort.h8308381.Hotel-Information) > > [Xavier's Cottage](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nuwara-Eliya-Hotels-The-Cottage-By-Jetwing.h12483826.Hotel-Information) > > [The HideoutElla Wood Cabins](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ella-Hotels-The-HideoutElla-Wood-Cabins.h41819308.Hotel-Information) > > [Dream Cliff Mountain Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hildummulla-Hotels-Dream-Cliff-Mountain-Resort.h42548366.Hotel-Information) ---
