Concept of tent in real jungle environment

− The toilet accessories can be updated and air conditioning or air cooler to deal the heat.

Over rated Disney land “camping”

3.0

− We stayed at Mahoora Eco Yala expecting a remote wilderness camping experience, but unfortunately it felt more like a carefully constructed tourist attraction than genuine eco-camping. It’s also important to note that you don’t actually stay at Mahoora itself, but at Big Camp, where the communal facilities are located. The setting there is red dirt and dusty, quite different from the grassy Mahoora areas pictured in marketing materials, which are no longer used. The marketing creates the impression that you’re deep in nature, however the camp is surrounded by houses and roads, and at times it felt no more remote than camping in someone’s backyard. If you’re looking for an authentic wilderness experience, this may not meet your expectations. The biggest issue, however, was the food pricing. The camp justifies its prices by claiming its remote location, but given the surroundings this was difficult to understand. Food quality was disappointing, with simple meals charged at premium prices. For example, a sandwich cost around USD $15 and consisted of stale bread with very little filling. Guests are effectively captive once they arrive, as there are no nearby restaurants or local food options within easy reach, meaning you have little choice but to purchase meals from the camp. Our food bill ended up costing more than our two nights of accommodation, which was a frustrating surprise and significantly impacted the overall value of the stay. While the staff were friendly and the tents themselves were comfortable, the combination of the misleading sense of remoteness and the excessive food prices left us feeling disappointed. Potential guests should budget carefully and be aware that meal costs can quickly exceed the cost of accommodation.
