Positive: It's such a beautiful serene place, tight by the river and it just transports you out of this world. It's glamping but within budget. We were traveling with 2 kids and they wouldn't stop raving about the place. The hammock outside every cabin was a bonus! Loved the always smiling staff and especially Dhanushka who was more than happy to show us around. From a leisurely boat ride to a night walk to show us the uniqness of his place, we absolutely loved our time spent there. 10/10 would recommend the safari with him. We managed to see the oldest tusker Sumedha on our way out as well. Best place for couples, solo travellers as well as families.
Negative: Absolutely nothing.

Positive: We spent a wonderful night in this camp, we arrive for an afternoon safari and the driver came at the camp to pick us up! Then after that we went back and they propose us a sunset kayak tour, which was one the most peaceful moment of the travel !! The dinner was amazing, food was really nice and the set up was beautiful : NO WORDS - middle of nowhere, in the dark with only a fire as a light, so romantic! After diner they propose us a night walk to see animals, trees, fruits, stars … YOU MUST MUST A NIGHT HERE, it will be a memory for my whole life :D

Positive: I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Makula Safari Camping. It's the most unique place I've ever stayed, made special by the boat safari and night walk offered to all guests. During the boat safari we saw hornbills, a grey headed fish eagle, mynah birds and a beautiful sunset. On the night walk, Dhanushka showed us bats, constellations, the Milky Way, lots of plants and animals, including a tree snake. The staff are amazing and the tent and bathroom were spotless. Mosquito nets were provided and the window of the tents had insect screens. Torch-lit dinner was great. A morning safari was arranged for us and the guide was a mine of information and spotted animals that we would have easily missed. We were lucky enough to see teenage elephants close up. We only stayed one night but if recommend staying longer if you can.

Positive: Our stay at this safari lodge was truly unforgettable! From the moment we arrived, the staff went above and beyond to make our experience special. Damith, the chef, and the helper were absolutely outstanding — attentive, warm, and always ready to make every moment magical. Honestly, this place would not be perfect without them. The food was a highlight: traditional, organic, and served beautifully under lantern light by the bonfire, creating such an authentic atmosphere. We especially loved the night walk, which was both fun and informative for us and our son. A special mention to Damith for arranging a masseur — having a massage every evening outside our tent, surrounded by nature, was pure bliss! This lodge combines nature, comfort, and heartfelt hospitality in the best way possible. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a unique and memorable safari stay!
Negative: In the shower area I would replace the sponge carpet with wood
Summary: Peaceful and memorable

Positive: Definitely one of the best places I have ever stayed in my life. As soon as we arrived, the owner took us for a canoe ride on the river that runs in front of the tents, explaining every little detail about the local flora and fauna. It was truly interesting and engaging. Dinner was excellent and very atmospheric, lit only by torches and the fire. The room was beautiful, cool, and surrounded by the sounds of nature, which you can hear at all times. No need to worry about insects: the windows have mosquito screens, and there is an additional mosquito net over the bed. In any case, there were no mosquitoes. After dinner, we went on a night tour with the owner in the nearby fields, discovering the local plants and wildlife. The next morning, we went on a safari, booked through the property, which was simply magnificent. A truly unforgettable experience that I would recommend to anyone looking for an authentic connection with nature.
Negative: I recommend contacting the property before taking the dirt road that leads there. Google Maps isn’t entirely accurate.
